I've been saying "*Censored* The Undertaker" for years now. Nowadays, I say in a joking sense, or more so in a way to get a response from other people - and evidently it works.

 

As far as Austin's posts go, I was generally criticizing what he decides to post, but not the most recent one he made about Undertaker destroying his legacy and stuff. That is one thing I completely agree on.

Personally the pre-show is part of Mania for me. I know payouts and DVD royalties say otherwise for the talent but I put that show on when it starts and leave it on until the end.

Same. The wwe network streams the whole thing together and adds both to the on demand/replay section. I watch every single thing as my own WM tradition

Meltzer said that WWE had a backup plan if Bryan didn't get cleared for a partner for Shane vs Owens & Zayn but he said he still didn't know who that partner was. Wonder who it could've been...

Vince McMahon.

 

 

....

Or Johnny Gargano, with Ciampa beating the shit out of him on the go-home edition of SD!

I feel like Austin's posts a few pages back are justified (about Taker destroying his legacy and turning out like 'The Wrestler'). I feel it's hypocritical of people to criticise Austin for saying this but then also posting stuff like '*Censored* Taker' at the same time (only to those applicable of course). Taker is my all-time favourite wrestler but I think an argument can be made that if he keeps wrestling, he could seriously damage his legacy, and/or worse, his health. I really hope neither happens.

 

Also I feel like Austin isn't a troll at all, he's just a guy who's got some outlandish opinions (and does post some awful shit at time tbf) and he got this rep as a troll cos of that and his spelling/grammar. But if he was really a troll he would have been banned ages ago I reckon. I see what you're doing Austin, you do you.

Ive seen Austin post with good grammar in the Politics thread I think.

Taker's legacy can never be damaged. It is what it is...

 

Furthermore, seeing Taker break down over the past few years is perfect. It's an awesome story if you stop worrying about the past and just enjoy it. Even the timing of Taker's decline makes sense in the context of Paul Bearer passing away. His match with Punk was the last time that he looked remotely close to full health. He's been slumping ever since. And if he returns as the American Badass, that would make sense too; It would be kind of like a Super Sayain reverting back to a normal form. Like...he was ABA by choice in the past, but now he's fully lost the power of the Undertaker...he's just a dude again.

 

A lot of pro wrestling is suspending your disbelief and wanting to actually enjoy what you're watching. Even as a strong believer that Taker should have retired years ago, I can still see a cohesive story being told in his performance.

This is an amazing post. Sums up my feeling on Taker.

I want Aleister Black to be tbh.

 

Black Mass Takers ass into retirement. Kinda like a Ric Flair moment.

 

That would be great. Especially if Black claimed that he had imparted himself with Taker's evil or something. Not so much in the supernatural sense of absorbing his essence or some shit like that...but he could say something like "I have traveled to the other side, and I have made peace with the evil that resides inside of Mark". Something loosely suggestive like that...
