When
the teaser 2/21/11 started to show
up in WWE programming I thought that it was to introduce Sting to the WWE ring.
However, it wasn’t meant to be as The
Undertaker headed to the ring to signal that he is ready for Wrestlemania.
And
then, this happened.
It was
an epic promo.
It was
so epic that it didn’t even need to use words or actions to ignite the
intenseness of their rivalry!
Undertaker
calls himself “The Last Outlaw”.
Triple H says otherwise.
One
wants to protect the streak while the other wants to destroy it.
Two of
the biggest names in sports entertainment go head to head.
And
these guys will collide at Wrestlemania
27.
UNDERTAKER
vs TRIPLE H
UNDERTAKER’S
ROAD TO WRESTLEMANIA
The
Undertaker is perhaps the most durable main eventer of the WWE for 20 years or
so. He has been ably carrying the torch whether as a face or a heel. His promos
could be generic and his walk could be boring but you know you’re watching an
awe-filled match when this man is involved in it. Sure, injuries have appeared
but this is not a reason to doubt his abilities. He is a many-time WWE champion
and is a cinch to the Hall of Fame. He
has defeated the best of the Attitude
Era as well as the best of the current era. He barely drops the ball during
matches especially inside the grandest stage that is Wrestlemania 27.
TRIPLE H’S
ROAD TO WRESTLEMANIA
Next
to Ric Flair, he has the most World Championship titles. He had
numerous faces in the federation. From becoming an aristocrat to degenerate to
sadistic monster to frat boy – one could wonder if there is still missing in
his long list of accomplishments. Hello streak! Shawn Michaels during their UFC-like
match preview tells everyone of Triple H’s ability to succeed in everything that
he needs to accomplish. Triple H is addicted to winning and will resort to
whatever means necessary to achieve it. This is why he is called the Game.
THE BATTLE
He
owns the best gimmick ever. As the Deadman,
he has the “mystical” powers to thwart his opponents with the evil that contains
him. Over the years, his movesets have developed. Sure, the Tombstone piledriver and his choke slam
are still credible finishers but he has since added the Hell’s Gate submission and The
Last Call to his arsenal. He is also a feared striker and for a big man, he
is fast. Triple H is one of the soundest wrestlers ever. He can brawl and go
technical on his opponent if given the chance. He can also go hardcore with his
trusty sledgehammer. I remember when he was still new in the main event scene
that he has this “four moves of doom” like John
Cena. He’ll hit the running knee, then the spinebuster, and then the kick
to the groin to set up The Pedigree. In other words, expect this match to make
headway. For perhaps not longer than 20 minutes, you can see duelling chants to
fill the arena.
One
thing WWE isn’t really telling you is that Triple H is already part of the
streak back in the early 2000’s.
Will
lightning strike twice?
PREDICTION
Believe
it. Lightning will INDEED strike twice as I can’t see Triple H defeating the
Undertaker in Wrestlemania. There are reports that Shawn Michaels will have something to do with this match that will
make Triple H angry and it will lead to HBK coming out of retirement to “retire”
Triple H. However, this move is to protect the awesomeness of Triple H,
something that is too valuable to lose grace even in defeat to Taker at Mania.
Undertaker’s days are numbered though. John
Cena, Alberto del Rio, Sheamus, The Miz, and Rey Mysterio are a couple of
wrestlers that he can face as his career closes.
Besides,
imagine the backlash Triple H and the McMahons
will garner if their son-in-law is the one who’ll cash in on the imperial streak?
And besides,
Triple H is afraid of losing – as seen when he jobbed to Ric Flair, Batista, Chris Benoit, and John Cena in previous
Wrestlemania instalments.
Maybe
it’s finally time to see Sting in a WWE ring?
THE UNDERTAKER
WINS AND KEEPS THE STREAK!
Will
this match be shown last?
Game
over.
