HBK vs. Taker

Yeah. It's still a match.

You can't really say that just because they don't usually do it, doesn't mean they shouldn't. In this case, it makes sense. Kozlov has shown that he can beat the Undertaker so he deserves a shot to end his streak. The majority of fans would think Kozlov is actually going to break the streak, but would feel relief once Taker beats him.

It's still going to be Taker/Michaels but I'm just saying it would make sense for it to be Taker/Kozlov.

It doesnt make buisness sense, Wrestlemania is the one show where they can 1,000,000 buy rates, why would they give away one of the featured matches away for free a few weeks earlier, especially when it had a clean finish.

I've already said why. People will want to see if Taker can continue his streak. He would be going up against someone that has already proven that he could beat The Undertaker. People wouldn't be buying it to see the match itself, but to see the ending. It could be history.

But poeople wont order a PPV oon the strength of that they will see =that its Undertaker vs Kozloov and think "oh why should I pay $50 for that when they give it away foor free a few weeks ago I will feel ripped off", WWE never operates in this way for Wrestlemania and they wont change noow.

I see the Kozloov/Taker feud restarting after Mania.

this will be one of the best WM ever. The fact that it's too hard to tell which person will win will make it epic and alot more entertaining. Then the shaking of hands at the end ( maybe )

I don't think Michaels will end Undertakers career; however if there were any possiblitys in a finish other than Michaels defeat, a draw (Double countout etc.) would be suffcient. I think it would be an awesome gesture if did happen as Michaels is probally one of the only people on the WWE Roster worthy of it. (Other than Triple H of course lol :P)

What do you guys define as a screwy finish?

And with the Kozlov thing; from a build up perspective there is a possibility, but from a wrestling point of a view Kozlov shouldn't be on the card. I Taker/Kozlov match of any kind would be botch central (No offence to Taker whatsoever)

it is a great match-up and an epic one at that
i wud like to see a taker win and in a few years time a loser retires rematch at wm undertaker vs hbk

Taker will win in what should be an amazing match.

And the build is even better now that HBK has one of the two streaks he aimed to end finished.

I didn't realize how long the E has to build up for mania until i say the countdown on the entrance ramp. I would say that the build up for taker/hbk should be phenomenal, hopefully we a see a somewhat heel in HBK as he is gold on the mic as a cocky heel
