| Yeah, there has been a rumored HBK/Hardy 'Mania match in the works. The other big rumor (and it seems probable after last night) is Orton/Cena/HHH main eventing. This does suck though. I would've preferred a Hardy victory. |
| QUOTE (Infinite Devil Machine @ Feb 18 2008, 06:46 PM) | ||
I get the feeling at this point, that Jeff Hardy is probably going to be phased out of the top of the card. With John Cena's return, The Big Show coming back, Jericho, Hunter, Michaels, and even JBL moonlighting on RAW, there isn't a lot of room at the top. |
| QUOTE (SamoaRowe @ Feb 18 2008, 08:05 PM) | ||||
True, but Hardy lasting until the very end of the Raw EC seems to suggest that he's higher on the pecking order than a lot of the current top Raw stars. |
| QUOTE (Mad Dog @ Feb 18 2008, 08:38 PM) |
| I don't get this Orton push at all. It seems like he gets zero reaction unless he's getting beaten up by an over face. Does his heat really warrant this long of a title run? |
| QUOTE (Big F'N Swigg @ Feb 19 2008, 08:41 AM) |
| That's funny, because Cena got barely any reaction when he came out for the main event. |
