Prophecies of Big Bad Buddy

WrestleMania XXIII 2007


Batista vs. Undertaker

World Heavyweight Championship

Prediction:Undertaker
Prophecy:Expect to see the coolest intro of the night; I become a total mark when Undertaker's music hits and the lights go out. If I were Creative, Undertaker wins the belt, sets up a feud with Edge (who is also sporting an undefeated streak at 7-0) which burns slowly throughout the next year and at Wrestlemania XXIV, we see the big blowoff, where someone loses their unbeaten streak.
Result:Undertaker wins
1 Point Awarded

John Cena vs. Shawn Michaels

WWE Championship

Prediction:Shawn Michaels
Prophecy:I like the concept a writer on another site put up for this match: Cena needs heel heat badly; his face pops are totally lethargic and he often gets more boos than pops. So, this is the perfect spot for the turn. Cena's lost his McMahon Golden Boy status to a gentleman from ECDub - maybe you've heard of him; Bobby Lashley? Here's how I see this going down - Shawn wins the belt (not necessarily cleanly) and on tomorrow night's Raw the tag belts go up on the line. In a SWERVE!, Cena walks out on his tag team partner, leaving him to be beaten to a bloody pulp and touching off a long feud over the belt.
Result:John Cena wins
0 Points Awarded

Money in the Bank Ladder Match

Winner Gets a World Title Shot

Prediction:Edge
Prophecy:In order for my logic to work for the Smackdown Title, Edge pulls this one out through some outside interference. After he wins it, he cashes it in at the end of the statute of limitations for a Taker/ Edge Undefeated streak "I Quit" Match. Someone won't leave with their streak intact.
Result:Ken Kennedy wins
0 Points Awarded

Umaga vs. Lashley - Battle of the Billionaires

Representatives for McMahon and Trump Determine Who Is Shaved Bald

Prediction:Lashley for Trump
Prophecy:I can smell this one a mile away - I have no comment, as it looks like it's all been said already.
Result:Lashley for Trump wins
1 Point Awarded

ECW Originals vs. The New Breed

8 Man Tag

Prediction:The New Breed
Prophecy:Who needs it more? The ECW Originals would be a great choice if this WAS a hardcore/EXtremeRulez!!1! match, but it's not. Giving the win and the rub to the New Breed sets them up as a competitive stable which actually lends some credibility to them, that yes, they can compete in ECW 2.0. Spot of the night is Monty Brown doing an airborne Pounce on an already airborne Sabu.
Result:ECW Originals wins
0 Points Awarded

Melina vs. Ashley

Lumberjill Match for the Women's Championship

Prediction:Ashley Massaro
Prophecy:Tough match - this is the first of two pissbreak matches, because let's face it; the Women's title field is pretty slim pickings as to who can ACTUALLY wrestle and not just be eye candy. Ashley has the momentum, and Melina's hated backstage. Guess who gets the title?
Result:Melina wins
0 Points Awarded

Kane vs. The Great Khali

Giants Collide

Prediction:Kane
Prophecy:UGGGHH. where's my "both mangled and/or killed" option? Considering if Wight agreed to it it would've been BigShow/Kane/Khali in a three-way dance? The second pissbreak match of the night, and I can't see this one going for a ten-minute offensive. We've already established that Kane puts fear into Khali as he's made the save every week for the last month. Khali is still very green and he's not ready for a WM victory. Kane (and his hook) to win
Result:The Great Khali wins
0 Points Awarded

Chris Benoit vs. MVP

United States Championship

Prediction:MVP
Prophecy:WE have already established that Chris Benoit will put over guys who need the rub - after all, he's lost all of his title belts to up-and-comers (sic Randy Orton, JBL) That fine tradition will continue here, on a failed experiment - the need to repackage MVP and ship him back to OVW until he can get his gimmick to work better. I'm pained to see Beniot curtainjerking, and I'm even more pained to see he'll put someone over who doesn't really deserve it.
Result:Chris Benoit wins
