Major Spoilers on HHH/Hardy, Rumble, Batista, Mania, and More

- As previously posted, the winner of the Jeff Hardy vs. Triple H match at WWE's Armageddon pay-per-view will get a WWE Title shot at the Royal Rumble in January. As things are planned now, Triple H will likely win the WWE Title from Randy Orton, probably at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. If plans stay the same, then Triple H will be going over Hardy at Armageddon this month and Orton will likely regain the WWE Title over Chris Jericho.

 

The current plan after that is for Triple H to wrestle Batista at WrestleMania 24 in Orlando. There is major talk within WWE of doing this match at WrestleMania instead of the previously planned Orton vs. HHH match.

 

It's unknown right now if Batista will be winning the Royal Rumble, but it makes sense because the winner can face any brand's Champion at WM 24. Seeing how Batista is on SmackDown and HHH on RAW right now, Batista would pretty much have to win the Rumble to face HHH at WrestleMania because of the rules of the upcoming Elimination Chamber match at No Way Out, that will only feature wrestlers from the same brand. The other brand's Champion will have six superstars from his brand face off in the Elimination Chamber match with the winner getting the other World Title shot at WrestleMania. It looks like that match will be a SmackDown brand match.

 

It looks like Batista will lose his title sometime soon as there's no way WWE will have a Title vs. Title unification match at WrestleMania. Edge will likely be the one to take the strap from Batista. It makes sense for The Undertaker to win the Elimination Chamber match and face Edge at WrestleMania in a huge match, with the title and the winning streak on the line.

 

 

now i lost interest in watching Royal Rumble :thumbsdownsmiley: :thumbsdownsmiley: :thumbsdownsmiley:

WWE Trying To Get Major Star At WrestleMania 24

 

 

Source - Wrestling Observer Newsletter

 

Jimmy Hart is currently trying to persuade Hulk Hogan into coming back for WrestleMania this year. The thought is that if NBC's American Gladiators is a hit they can use WrestleMania as a vehicle to cross-promote the show.

 

Hogan and Vince initially had a fall out early in 2007, largely because of his SummerSlam payoff. He was originally scheduled to be Donald Trump's representative at WrestleMania 23 in the role that went to Bobby Lashley. There were also ideas last year of having Hogan face Big Show or Great Khali at Ford Field with the idea of duplicating the famous Andre the Giant slam from 20 years earlier. Another idea that was pondered was to have Shane McMahon be Hogan's opponent with Khali in the corner (with the idea they couldn't trust a Hogan vs. Khali match) to build to a slam. The final straw for Hogan was when the WWE creative team did an angle where they used Jillian Hall to mock his daughter Brooke.

 

Hogan and Eric Bischoff had also talked about starting a new wrestling promotion as a nostalgia tour. The idea would be to take Hogan outside of North American to markets he had either rarely or never appeared. The talk of doing a U.S. tour lost a lot of interest after the Memphis show which tested the market for Hogan vs. Paul “Big Show” Wight by only drawing 2,200 fans. This was the only Hogan match this year, and since Nick's accident in August all talk in direction of the promotion has seemed to have been dropped.

 

With Hogan confirmed for next week's WWE Monday Night RAW 15th Anniversary show it does appear that his relationship with Vince is improving.

[clubber_lang]

That Taker-Edge match at WM24 could be good. .However, that HHH-Batista will be a bore...

 

Why not just make Jericho-Edge match? Or a CM Punk-Shawn Michaels match? Even a HHH-CM Punk match would rule. Or an Orton-CM Punk bout? If they want Batista, then make sure Batista deliver the goods...

 

At least Cena won't have anything to do in the main event...

i want a lita vs. vickie match!!!

 

 

throw in k-fed vs. cena... partida pa si k-fed injured si cena

[neKnock]

Do they really have to plan for W24 this early? That would make the next six months so predictable.

 

Yeah, I agree. Bring back K-Fed. Fire Cena.

JBL was on Raw last night because he will be traveling with them to the Middle East this week.

 

For those that are wondering, the APA reunion will not be a permanent thing. It can’ t be a permanent thing because it wouldn’t make sense. The APA gimmick is that of two guys who get paid to provide protection. The JBL character is different from the Bradshaw character in that the JBL character is a financial success.

 

Anyways, JBL will be traveling with the Raw crew over to the Middle East to be on WWE’s annual show for the troops. As always, the location for the show will be withheld from the public due to security issues.

 

JBL is expected to return to his duties as the Smackdown color commentator when he returns to the country later on this week. There are also reports that he’s still working out in preparations of a full time return to the ring.

 

 

 

It seems like plans for Wrestlemania 24 are changing on a daily basis.

 

The closest thing to a sure bet is that Edge and the Undertaker will be facing off in a high profile match. With that match being the biggest possible fresh matchup in WWE right now, Smackdown appears to be set for Wrestlemania 24.

 

With the World Heavyweight Championship match seemingly set, management needs to find a good WWE Heavyweight Championship match.

 

It is believed that the original plan was to have Triple H and John Cena battling for the title. With John Cena not likely to be ready by then, the writers are sifting through the roster to find someone to pair up with Triple H.

 

A match between Randy Orton and Triple H was discussed, but management may be losing a bit of faith in the WWE Heavyweight Champion because of the lackluster reaction that he’s been getting from the audience these past few weeks.

 

Batista is the latest candidate to be placed in a match with Triple H at Wrestlemania 24.

 

 

 

There are talks about putting Jeff Hardy into his first main event title match at a pay per view in January.

 

With the Royal Rumble being such a big event, WWE can afford to try out different things on the undercard. With the battle royale itself being the main draw, management can throw a midcarder like Jeff Hardy into a WWE Heavyweight Championship match. Jeff Hardy’s popularity is still at a high level, so putting him into a high profile match could do wonders in keeping his loyal fan base happy.

 

At Armageddon, Jeff Hardy and Triple H will do battle in a #1 Contender’s match.

 

 

 

Mr Kennedy took a shot at Scott Hall on Monday Night Raw.

 

During the segment where impersonators were brought out, Mr Kennedy said, “Thanks for coming” to the Razor Ramon (Scott Hall’s character in WWE) impersonator.

 

That was a shot at Scott Hall for once again failing to show up for a wrestling show. He failed to appear as scheduled at the Turning Point pay per view on Sunday night. No wordyet on whose decision that was to make the comment (Mr Kennedy’s, Vince McMahon’s, or the writing staff).

 

For those of you that are wondering, Shawn Michaels and Scott Hall are not as close as they once were. The comment shouldn’t lead to any bad blood between Mr Kennedy and Shawn Michaels.

[neKnock]

See... all this W24 talk is still too early since a lot might happen in between. Let's just let it pass and let the storyline flow for the meantime.

there was an earlier plan of Mr. Kennedy being the bastard son of vince that will threaten the family business. thus HHH to the rescue revealing himself as the son in law. and the plan was to put HHH and Mr. kennedy in a match at WM24 for the rights of the family business or something... but that has changed. :thumbsdownsmiley:

 

so i expect some changes on this one coz as you say its too early.

 

HHH vs. Kennedy would be better than batista though :thumbsupsmiley:

[yubiakira]

anong latest sa TNA? mga renegades nang WWE na nasa TNA na. do u think that Booker T's defection is a wise decision? will RVD follow?

[clubber_lang]

I couldn't agree more. HHH-Kennedy is a better match...

[Kazekage.Gaara]

I couldn't agree more. HHH-Kennedy is a better match...

 

as long as Cena's NOT in WM24, I'm down with that.

[andrean48]

Any news about Lashley?

 

He would be a good addition to the WM24 line up.

[animo_lasalle]

Batista...
