Unfortunatly Chad, while I agree that the marquee value of John Cena vs. Randy Orton is good, the delivery of that main event is ZERO!  Orton still lacks that certain something, most likely more experiance, and Cena needs a credible opponent to make it look good.  I am sorry to say that we are about 2 yrs out from this match happening.

Agreed 100000 percent!

And I don't want Triple H vs. Cena again either.

How about HBK vs. Cena if there's no special matches for HBK to be in or a DX situation? That screams WRESTLEMANIA to me far more than Orton being in any main event situation. He's just not ready yet.

Actually, that sounds good.

I think you could run Triple H vs. Edge, Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena and Batista vs. Undertaker (Hell in a Cell) and you'd have 3 very big WrestleMania worthy matches.

WWE Hall of Famer “Rowdy” Roddy Piper has been hospitalized in Oregon for surgery after being sent home from WWE’s tour of the United Kingdom. Piper’s original diagnosis was kidney stones, however, sources close to the situation say the former World Tag Team Champion’s surgery may be a result of disc problems.

Due to Piper's injury, he will not participate at Survivor Series; Ric Flair's team will now include a Legend to be named.


Too bad they fired Ted DiBiase. Though I'd love to see Ricky Steamboat take Piper's spot since he can't be there.

With that said, I hope Piper gets well soon.

Agreed.

I still think a Team Carlito vs. Team Benjamin should happen.

Either way, this still has the potential to be PPV of the year...

I mean, right now the two best PPVs were brand only events...by my own personal rating system, both those were *** (NWO and UF)...Two really good Survivor Series matches, an entertaining first blood match, a Chavo-Benoit opener, and a decent world title match could get you above that. It's a question of the old guys vs. Squad and James-Lita women's match...

Definitely.

I hope Piper gets better for sure, but from purely a business standpoint, this could be a "happy accident" if they book something like this.

This could be the PPV of the year if all goes well.

Team Carlito(Carlito, Super Crazy, & Cryme Tyme) Vs. Team Shelton, (Shelton Benjamin, Kenny & Johnny, and Charlie Haas) (never mind vis)

I think it could work, but they''ll probably go a dumb route and have Duggan jump in there.

Hey don't forget to post your predictions in the prediction contest thread...

But I wanted to mention something that I just found out (or rediscovered...not sure which)...

Survivor Series 2007 is in Montreal...10 years after the Screwjob, they'll be back in that city...

Interesting, is it not?

VERY interesting. There's no way that night goes down without some kind of allusions, reference, or some other kind of controversy, especially since HBK is going to be a heel that night with that crowd whether he wants to be or not. Same goes for Triple H, by extension and association.

I'd be looking for a DX promo that cuts to the chase on some things, at the very least.

I was thinking Benoit vs. HBK for one of the World titles...What an emotional match that would, huh?

Big time. And it would be a five star match, to boot.

That would be one of the best matches you could ever see, although shawn would have to be like he was when he first came back after three years and won the world title, that was a great match!!!

I'm pretty jacked up about tonight's PPV...

I assume DX will get the main-event over the World Title match...Should be interesting to see how CM Punk is booked in that match. Punk has a strong character on the ECW brand, but he's in there with arguably two of the most popular tag teams/factions in the history of wrestling. I don't like his odds, but I hope he gets booked strong. Hell, I could almost see the entire Team DX surviving. If that's the case, expect a different match to main-event...

What else could? Book vs. Batista could...I really hope these guys put on a good effort. I thought their first match at Summerslam was fine, albeit sloppy...but they tried. After 3 months of house show and SD matches, they should be able to do much better. It'll be all about the booking...Booker T matches have weak finishes if he wins, but it seems as if he won't be after the stipulation added. I suppose it's not out of the question to have Batista lose, but the full circle circumstances of him being back in the town where he forfeited the title seem too ripe for a title change to ignore.

THe only other match that could main-event is Team Cena vs. Team Show. It's possible given the ECW talent involved, but not likely given that Cena vs. Umaga is a feud they appear to be headed for. If that's the case, Umaga needs to at least take Cena out in some way.

Taker vs. Kennedy could be a very interesting match. I'm not a fan of the first blood gimmick, as the most memorable one that Taker has been in was against AUstin in 1999...a match that I thought was average at best. Hopefully, they'll work better within the gimmick and produce a good match.

The Women's title, US title, and Legends vs. Squad matches could all be solid, especially Chavo-Benoit...

Very much looking forward to the PPV tonight, should be a really good one.

Team DX vs. Team Rated RKO should main event, because who wants a main event with MVP, Test, and Umaga in it? I'd love to see DX go undefeated, mainly because you don't see that anymore, but because it wouldn't be impossible. I like everyone on Rated RKO, but Helms and Knox shouldn't be any trouble to eliminate. Nitro should last a little while, and then he's out too.

Losing to five people the quality of Team DX isn't going to make Rated RKO look bad, especially when it comes down to 5 on 2. But, to set up a match for D2D, I suspect the Hardyz will be eliminated. I can't say I have a problem with that.

CM Punk better not get eliminated though. He's competing for the ECW Championship next week, and he's riding an undefeated streak into that match. Having him lose only for DX to ultimately win, isn't doing him an favors. Quite frankly, I'd almost rather not see both members of DX survive, because I'm tired of them being put over as unbeatable. Shawn Michaels, since he's the one who takes the beatings, should probably be eliminated. If the Hardyz get eliminated, either Michaels or H should as well, I don't really care which one, though who can see Triple H taking the dive and being eliminated from the winning team?

Either way, if you don't go for the entire DX team surviving, then the two survivors should be a DX member and CM Punk.

The rest of the card looks solid enough.

I suspect Chavo/Benoit could possibly steal the show, if they can manage to get at least 15 minutes. Which considering the divas match and the legends match probably won't last more than 6 minutes a piece, shouldn't be that hard to do in 3 hours.

Would anyone be surprised if Kelly Kelly caused Punk to get eliminated?

I actually see that happening, and I don't like it one damn bit.

I would too.

I just don't want to see Punk eliminated, especially if his team wins, which they will.

A little under 2 hours away, I can't wait! :rockon:

I haven't been this pumped about a PPV since Mania...

On WWE.COM, they've been showing the wrestlers getting ready and stuff like that. I think that's cool...
