Who is going to wrestle Taker at WM25?

Summersftw · 01-20-2009, 09:59 AM

Am i the only person who thinks it could be Taker Vs. Koslov? They're really building up Koslov to be a monster at the moment, and if his streak continues to Wrestlemania then it'd be a pretty interesting streak vs. streak match. I think if it was booked right it could be really interesting.

But then i'm a JBL fan, what do i know

I just don't see anyone else that could be built up to feud with Taker since they scrapped the awesome sounding storyline with Hade Vansen. NOBODY wants to see Taker Vs. Big Show again! Plus a lot of these guesses (HBK, Jericho) are cross brand ones, and i don't see them having any cross brand matches except for a possible 'dominant brand' match.

Doesn't seem like it will be anyone particularly big since most others seem to have arrangements coming to a head already.

Maybe Umaga

Hopefully not Kozlov

I would like a Jericho inter-promo feud maybe. They've never really met, and it could be a lot of good times.

Other than that.....maybe Austin since they are both Texans with SCSA wanting to take away Taker's undefeated streak. I'm guessing that would be a no-no since they definitely wouldn't want Austin taking it away, and they likely don't want Austin losing at Mania.

Yeah that's the thing really, with 'the streak' it's getting harder to book for Taker at Mania. Because basically he is going to win, which means that if it's someone too big then they're not going to want to lay down, and if it's someone too small then it just doesn't even warrant any hype because Taker is obviously going to demolish them.

Hence Koslov being a decent middle ground. He's undefeated and is pretty dominant on Smackdown at the moment, and a decent match at Mania against Taker could really revive his main event status since Survivor Series pretty much killed it off.

Wasn't Jimmy Snuka the 1st on the "streak"

Therefore, how about Sim Snuka this year?

Hey screw you all, I bet Russo would love my idea!!

I predicted Kozlov awhile ago, because that's what it's going to be. Kozlov will remain undefeated to Mania, and then it'll be streak vs. streak.

Kinda lame, but yeah.

I think it could be Kane. The have wrestled before at Mania and Kane really isnt doing anyhting now so maybe that could happen.

Again though, i doubt they'd cross brands, the two shows are very seperate at the moment (miz and morrison aside...).

KenTheKiller · 01-20-2009, 12:24 PM

I see either Umaga, Kozlov, or Chris Jericho (more likely if he had gone to Smackdown).

He won't be facing Jeff.

Umaga is the most likely option for me, he's due back at anytime and if he's booked right he could come across as a credible challanger to Taker.

Yup. Either Umaga or Kozlov as the token monster challenger. Sorry, I don't see WWE doing much more than that with Undertaker this year. I had thought they would do HBK/Taker.. both being from Texas and their Royal Rumble teases in past years, but it looks as though HBK/JBL is a lock at this point.
