Wrestlemania 23 Preview



Okay so you've read all of my Wrestlemania moments. With all the good times Wrestlemania is still a curiosity of mine so here is a preview of this Wrestlemania, Wrestlemania 23 from Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan...

Melina vs. Ashley (Women's Championship Match)- Ashley is this month's Playboy Cover Girl as part of a contract between the WWE and Playboy to give them the April Cover to feature whoever they want to (Sable, Torrie Wilson, Candice Michelle). Melina is much hotter and a heel playing the stuck up "Hollywood Socialite" gimmick and Women's Champion.
Who Should Win: Melina is the most interesting "Diva" in the company
Who Will Win: Ashley to try to recover some struggling single-copy sales of her Playboy.

The Great Khali vs. Kane- An absolutely worthless match as The Great Kahli is this year's Giant Gonzalez. He is the freshest of these talentless oeffs that Vince McMahon seems to love.
Who Should Win: Khali, I guess.
Who Will Win: Khali, probably.

Tommy Dreamer, Sandman, Sabu, Rob Van Dam vs. Matt Striker, Elijah Burke, Marcus Cor Von, Kevin Thorn- What do you mean you haven't heard of the last four guys? Any old ECW fan doesn't want to tune in to Sci-Fi on Tuesday nights to see what has happened to their beloved ECW.
Who Should Win: The ECW Originals
Who Will Win: Those other four guys.

Chris Benoit vs. MVP (United States Championship Match)- MVP is a Terrell Owens based gimmick, Benoit was the Main Event winner three years ago.
Who Should Win: I've never been a Benoit ball-tonguer but this MVP guy sucks.
Who Will Win: MVP.

Edge vs. Randy Orton vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Matt Hardy vs. CM Punk vs. King Booker vs. Finlay vs. Mr. Kennedy ("Money in the Bank" Ladder Match)- Money in the Bank means a title shot whenever you want it, no questions asked. Edge is the best performer in the company on all fronts, Orton is Bob Orton's kid and at the center of the HGH controversy, you know the Hardys, CM Punk is the ECW rep and indy superstar, King Booker is Booker T, Finlay is Fit Finlay doing a stereotypical Irish gimmick, Kennedy does his own ring entrances which was cool a year and a half ago. Most of the best workers in one match at Wrestlemania, BRILLIANT!
Who Should Win: Orton, I have an idea.
Who Will Win:
Everyone that can win has gotten at least one title shot, let's say Edge.

Bobby Lashley vs. Umaga (Battle of the Billionares Hair vs. Hair Match, Steve Austin as the Referee)- Lashley is black and on steroids, Umaga is a Samoan straight out of 1993. If Lashley wins Vince McMahon will have his head shaved, if Umaga wins Donald Trump will have his head shaved. I'm sure every offer has been made for Trump to lose his hair and get WWE put on every news and internet outlet out there the following week. It isn't happening.
Who Should Win: Umaga just for the buzz that could lead to a WWE surge (the last one was ten years ago)
Who Will Win: Lashley, never been so sure of anything.

Undertaker vs. Batista (World Heavyweight Championship Match)- Batista is HHH's former bodyguard. Undertaker is 14-0 in Wrestlemania and not anxious to give up that streak anytime soon. UT will lose at Wrestlemania at some point but Batista isn't a big enough superstar to do it.
Who Should Win:- Batista, I hate The Undertaker
Who Will Win- Undertaker.

Shawn Michaels vs. John Cena- They are both the current WWE Tag Team Champions. Michaels superkicked Cena at the end of Raw last week to end a brilliant "who will turn on who" angle that lasted the better part of two months. Cena is so stale as a babyface he needs something to change pace and keep his character fresh.
Who Should Win: Michaels, followed by Orton cashing in the "Money in the Bank" he won earlier that night (especially if its the first match) beating Michaels with the help of Cena, this would be a brilliant way to end the show.
Who Will Win: Cena, WWE has never been so high on a guy since Hulk Hogan.
