Meraklis56 Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 The Wrestling Observer is reporting that in a meeting held yesterday, it was agreed upon that WWE would no longer be referred to as "World Wrestling Entertainment." Because of Vince McMahon's desire to rid the use of the word "wrestling" in the company name, it's being said that the company will solely be referred to as "WWE," and it will be branded as such. Oh...another change in the name or at least,in the calling of it. We all know what changing a word means to Vince. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazhar Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 WrestleMania 27 this Sunday! Can't wait! I will be looking forward to HHH vs Taker mostly. Knowing that HBK will also play some part in it. I would love HBK to screw Taker and HHH would end the streak, remember, this is a No Holds Barred match, so anything goes! Also, I wonder what will happen between Rock and Cena, specially when Cena hit AA to Rock (that was awesome!). One thing is clear, Rock will layeth that SmackaDown on this Fruit Pebble Cena. Cole will finally get some halarious beating from not only Lawler, but from Austin also. Austin and Lawler will celeberate and then Lawler will get the stunner too! Hahaha... I hope HHH-Taker match ends the show! Oh and don't forget the stage and fireworks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MightyJordan Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Anyone wanna throw in their predictions for WrestleMania then? I'll put in mine: US Title - Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan - Sheamus will probably retain the title, but Daniel Bryan deserves the push, so hopefully he'll win the title back tonight. Jerry "The King" Lawler vs. Michael Cole - No-brainer, this one. Rey Mysterio vs. Cody Rhodes - with possibly a little appearance by Sin Cara after the match? :whistle: Big Show, Kane, Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov vs. The Corre. - The first of the two comedy matches, and obviously I'm rooting for The Cobra! :p John Morrison, Trish Stratus and Snooki vs. Dolph Ziggler and Lay-Cool - And the second comedy match; watching the tiny Snooki take on the rather tall Michelle McCool should be a laugh. :p Randy Orton vs. CM Punk - This is practically a squash match, unless it suddenly becomes No-DQ, or a punted member of the Nexus returns to help Punk? World Heavyweight Title - Edge vs. Alberto del Rio - Unless a certain someone does a heel turn and helps del Rio win the title? :whistle: No Holds Barred - The Undertaker vs. Triple H - I'm about 50/50 on this one, but I reckon they'll never end the streak, so I'm going with Undertaker. WWE Title - The Miz vs. John Cena - I hate John Cena, but he's obviously gonna win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 Kofi Kingston is taking Vladimir Kozlov's place in the tag team match now. Apparently, The Corre took out Kozlov on this week's SmackDown!, which I assumed didn't exist, as all I saw online was a "SmackDown! Special", which was just a WrestleMania clip show!

timster Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 WrestleZone has learned exclusively that Good Ol' JR, Jim Ross is "100 percent confirmed" on the script for tomorrow's WWE Wrestlemania XXVII. A key insider who has seen the script for the show informed us "JR's name has been on the script since at least Thursday's draft of the show." Michael Cole and Jerry "The King" Lawler are not expected to be part of the announce team for the event, but both Josh Matthews and Booker T are expected to join JR in the announce position during the show. It is not known yet if WWE Chairman Vince McMahon will elect to have JR call the entire event, or just selected main events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyJordan Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I really hope JR commentates on the Lawler/Cole match, just so afterwards, with the help of Stone Cold, JR will, as Santino would say, "reach the point of orgasm". :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timster Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 WZ's own Chris Cash is live in Atlanta for WrestleMania, and is reporting that Sheamus © vs. Daniel Bryan for The US Title has been taken off the main PPV card and the match is taking place right now as a lumberjack dark match. More details on this developing story as they become available. ------------- Several readers have sent in word that during today's WrestleMania press conference, former Raw guest host Pee-Wee Herman spoke and said that he will be involved in the WrestleMania PPV in some capacity.

More details on this developing story as they become available. :blink: Really? That's weird. It's not like the show's totally packed as it is; there's 8 matches (not counting the US Title match) and four hours for the PPV, so plenty of time for other segments.

It is not known yet if WWE Chairman Vince McMahon will elect to have JR call the entire event, or just selected main events. From what I read, JR will call the Jerry Lawler vs Michael Cole match; the Undertaker vs HHH match; the 8-man tag team match; and the show-closing Cena vs Miz (with Rock involvement) WWE Title Match.

timster Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 In an update to the story we just broke, the Lumberjacks interfered in the US Title Dark Match between Sheamus and Daniel Bryan, Teddy Long came out and made the match a non-title Battle Royal with Sheamus, Daniel Bryan and all the Lumberjacks involved. So it appears that Sheamus vs Bryan could still take place on the main PPV card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
