Looks like an out-of-shape Kane without his mask.

So what do we think?
The Undertaker is obviously a massive draw, and this is his time of year...

Would you rather see his return on RAW, knowing that he would be advertised locally and it wouldn't be a surprise, or does returning at a live event sound good? This way I know I will be checking the sites every five minutes to find out he is going to face Punk (educated guess).

Quick query...

Before i ask this i want to state that i'm a taker fan... BUT...

People bitch and moan bout the Rock coming and going, but it seems fine that the taker shows up for a few weeks a year and wrestles one match... What's the difference????

Both are MASSIVE draws for the wwe, but people only seem to give the rock grief. And before anyone say oh the rock left to do movies. BUT the rock has been a 7x wwe champion, 2x whc, multi intercontinental champion, multi tag champion. He's done everything, he has nothing left to prove.

rock - talks about himself being the people champ, and always there for the people, and then is there for maybe one week here or there (now being the champ he is around), rock is a draw card and great performer, but if he is the peoples champ or does it for the peoples, then stay in the WWE for a while, not once every 4 months.

taker - does not talk about being the peoples champ and that he is there for the people. puts a good performance in and then doesnt talk abut it for months after

Taker is a wrestler. He's been a pro for over 25 years, WWE for 23 and has worked himself so hard that his body can now only take one or two matches a year.

Rock was a wrestler 15 years ago. He is now an actor who dabbles in wrestling.

Taker is a wrestler. Comes back and wrestles a programme, similar to Y2J, HHH or Lesnar, without sticking around full time, it's what they all do.
I don't mind Rock, as in theory, we shouldn't get stuck with a celebrity a'la Snooki, as he brings our Hollywood flavour.

Wrestlemania looks like:
Rock vs Cena - twice in a lifetime...
Lesnar vs HHH
Probably CM Punk vs Undertaker (I'm predicting Punk will come out next week complaining he has no Mania opponent, then Taker will come out)

Seen all these matches before. The event should be called Rematchmania!

The third of those matches though... One was not the big draw he is today, although he was a great wrestler then (as with now)

How can people long for rock vs punk 3 at WM yet when it comes to rock cena or lesnar HHH, they call it rematchmania?

so you weren't happy with rock vs austin x3? was for me cause it was awesome..kane vs taker x2? hbk vs taker x2? hhh vs taker x2.

I'm not wanting Rock vs Punk 3.

Kane and Undertaker have never had a good match. Rock vs Cena cannot be compared to Rock vs Austin.

The line-up just stinks of WWE's inability to create new stars and feuds.

apparently vince was pissed they used the pile driver, its banned now since things went pg i reckon. even cole sounded shocked when he saw it. i loved it...
the hurricana (however you spell it) was a touch sloppy, but it was something else different.
anyone who complains about this match has no idea.

punk and cena have great chemistry.... they have had some great matches over the past 18 months.

I think the "the best" comment could be another rematchmania scenario, if for whatever reason Taker doesn't work Mania, or doesn't wrestle Punk, we could be seeing the same match as last year (Jericho), with the heel/face roles reversed. I wouldn't complain, because they are the two best "wrestlers" in the company.
Lesnar "legit" bloodied up at Raw, looked graphic, and the brawl made the HHH/Lesnar thing seem intense. There'll surely be a stipulation added to it, where Heyman or Vince will have to disappear for a while if their guy loses (and Lesnar will go over HHH).
Cena/Rock is a done deal, as I've said, outside of the theatrical side of it, they made a massive deal of the one on one "rematch of a lifetime" when they did the WM30 location announcement (sidebar - I will be in America during WM next year, so look out New Orleans).
I am hoping they leave Ziggler off the Mania card, so then he can cash in- and FYI, it looks like Hash Swagger will still be competing, so Swagger goes over Del Rio.
