WWE need to keep reinventing there stars to keep them popular with fans and to make things in WWE keep rotating. I have seen stars who are serious when they enter at some point get to be silly AKA Stone Cold Steve Austin The Rock DX. Or you get stars who are silly and not serious at the beginning and become seroius bad asses AKA Kurt Angle, Christian , Now Carlito

WWE are already starting the Buzz for Wrestlemania 25 and the Smackdown main event as predicted looks to be either Edge vs Triple H or Undertaker vs Triple H

There also a buz that Stone Cold Steve Austin wants one final match and at WM25 since it in his home town.

The rumored Wrestlemania Raw Main event is looking like a one on one John Cena vs Batista rematch or Batista vs Randy Orton

Batista has been hinted at a heel turn since Backlash but WWE have held out on doing it but Once Rey Mysterio returns and we have another fan favorite Batista by the end of the year I can see turning heel.

For now Cena makes far too much money threw the kids buying his crap for the WWE to turn him heel even if the fans don't like him. The only other way for Cena to turn heel is if Randy Orton turned face other wise there would be more heels than faces on RAW.

As for Austin I think since it in Huston Texas his home town and HBK from Texas it would make a very interesting event having two home grown stars to face off against each other and the crowd would be unreal.

Has SCSA and HBK faced each other before?

Yes they did in the main event at Wrestlemania 14 with Mike Tyson as the ref. If was one of HBK last matches before his semi retirement.

It has been stated Austin will be at Cyber Sunday so the build up to his up coming match at WM25 if he agrees to do it could start there

John Cena is out of Action with a serious Neck Injury and will likely be out for 6 months or even longer. It not as serious as the injury Benoit Austin or Edge has had but still it serious and need time to heal slowly.

The injury happened at Summer Slam due to Batista delivering many Batista bombs.

Oh dear, how could i forget about that!

If i could choose 1 match for WM, i would want a title match between Taker and HBK

Agreed.  I loved their Ground Zero-Badd Blood-Rumble series with the Hell in the Cell & casket matches.

Was it Badd Blood where Taker dove over the top rope ( could have been the first time he did this ) to land on top of 10 odd superstars ( i remember Vader being one of them )? The other wrestes ran down to help Michaels because Taker was beating him into a bloody pulp.

The other wrestes ran down to help Michaels because Taker was beating him into a bloody pulp. Ground Zero.  The locker room was emptied because HBK & the taker kept knocking out referee's, and generally doing whatever the hell they wanted.  It was great stuff, they were still trying to get at each other after that.  Also led nicely into the first ever hell in a cell match at badd blood.

Ahhh, almost right. I think that was the first match/PPV i watched that got me back into WWF/E. i think my lil lil Bro still has the video, will have to look around when i visit the parents.

On a side note, i have been thinking. When it is time for Taker to retire, for good, how would they go about it. He is the Lord of Darkness, the Dead Man, the Phenom and all that, sooo, how would they explain that the dead dude who keeps raising from the dead, cant come back any more.

I think he would have to break character..and say good bye to the fans etc. Or....this works for me.... having Mark in character saying that the 'body' that Undertaker posseses is old and weary, and he needs a new body to raise from the dead in. That way, Calloway can retire, and someone new can take over the character of the Undertaker. I mean, surely it cant be that long until retirement calls.

Then he would have to be 'killed' off for good.

What could be a good angle, but would require Kane to retie at the same point, is to have them against each other in their last match, somehow the ending being them delivering each other to hell, never to return  ( other than seeing them in the HOF. )
