I'd take HHH losing pretty quickly out of those three. Cena/Rock II must have been planned even before Cena/Rock I went down (otherwise, Cena jobbing last WM makes absolutely zero sense ... although I said before last year's WM that there was no way Rock was jobbing in Miami). And I happen to think UT losing his streak to Punk would be mega-terrible, unless UT has hand-picked Punk as the guy he wants to "pass the torch" to, which while possible, is at best highly unlikely.

Basically, the 5-10 percent chance HHH jobs is still >>>>> the chances of either Cena or UT jobbing, IMO.

Yeah agree with Dan. I guess I don't get why everyone is so sure that HHH is such a lock to go over, really. I understand egomaniac gets his return job from Lesnar etc., but if he truly just wants to 100% go the business route going forward and also wants to force the fans to have an emotional retirement moment for him then going out at Mania is the way. Obviously he's not going to stop at least sporadically being on camera but I can see this being his last match. Or, like most retirements, his intended last match followed by several returns.

I am good with HHH losing via Superkickerference and returning to have an unsanctioned street fight with HBK at WM 30.

Living Colour is going to perform Punk's entrance live, should be pretty sweet.

Rumours are Mick Foley's induction has been bumped off the television broadcast of the Hall of Fame ceremony for...

...Donald Trump.

I can dream of Cactus Jack's music playing, Foley chasing Trump off the HoF stage with a barbed-wire 2x4, then doing his own induction speech, right?

Man. Before Bruno it looked like Foley was gonna headline. Off TV altogether is a pretty bad beat for Foley. He wasn't really a worthy headliner but surely he was a worthy #2 inductee in a given year.

It's absurd to bump Foley for Trump.

(Wait, do I really have to post this? ... Aw, **** it.)

I could easily see Foley as a hall of fame headliner. I'm guessing in the coming years we'll see some headliners way less deserving than Foley.

the whole thing will be on the DVD but clearly whoever set up the show feels like more casuals will turn it on for Trish and Trump than for Foley.

and Vince clearly hates Foley.

or can they? via 411

Mick Foley has announced via Twitter that his WWE Hall of Fame speech will be broadcast on the USA Network special after all. The special was set to only air Donald Trump, Bruno Sammartino and Trish Stratus' speeches, but it appears that the influx of complaints to WWE have changed their minds on it.

Really? The WWE was stupid enough to think they could have only those three on TV? When a good 95 percent of its entire audience doesn't give two ****s about any of them? Glad the fans spoke up and common sense won out.

Yep, this is true.

Sadly, what they think is also pretty damn true.

Is McMahon and co for ****ing real? Having Trump in the HOF firstly is ridiculous, but to then bump an icon like Foley for a guy who "fought" one ****ing ridiculously, **** match is absolutely absurd.

That has to be a level? SURELY?
