took me a ridiculously long time to get this

No u can't.

I think an I Quit match of Cena vs Taker is probably the only way we could outthink ourselves and believe Taker could lose the streak before his retirement. I think lkj's reaction is perfect for showing just how true that is.

Can I Quit matches end without someone quitting? Like how Submission matches can end on KOs?

Bret vs. Austin at WM 13 was an I Quit match and was declared over when Austin refused to quit but passed out in a pool of his own blood. So there is one big precedent.

also someone could play a recording of one of the participants saying I quit over the sound system

If they did this in a Cena-Taker WM match, finally Survivor Series 1997 would be supplanted for least popular PPV ending ever.

I thought it was so looked it up on wikipedia to make sure before posting and it says it was a submission match in three different places and I assumed they were right and I just remembered it wrong

Actually now I think those sources are right and we were wrong.

I thought that match was billed as a no-disqualification submission match, which technically is the same rules as an I quit match. Though one of the more interesting loopholes of an I quit match is that you could tap out, like you would in a submission match, but it would not count, since the person did not say I quit.

back when the submission match happened they weren't counting tap outs as give ups yet though so it really was an "I quit" match.

Anyone watching NXT? I wanted to but I have missed a bunch (need to catch up sometime). Tapings seem like my boy Seth Rollins is getting a good push

Having Jinder make it to the final is odd, but I guess this is being heavily heavily pushed in India so that would explain it. Rollins is going over anyway to be the inaugural NXT champion.

I am looking forward to seeing Paige, aka Britani Knight, too. She is just 19 yet has 6 years wrestling experience and is from Britain's equiv of the Hart family. She was a little raw when I last saw her on SHIMMER (her dropkick to the corner is notoriously horrible) but she has strong mic skills, is a complete master at drawing heat using the stick (esp when cutting on American crowds) and is also really hot so the sky is the limit.

Scotty Too Hotty is on NXT?

edit: oic, it's a continuation of the Heath Slater Legends Tour

If Jinder loses, the internet riots

I'm actually hoping that it would be the Rock since they never had a pretty high-profile feud before for some reason. At least, he's not facing HHH again.

Does that mean if Take chooses Lesnar that we get the travesty of Rock/Cena again?

I vote anything that doesn't involve that.

UT/Rock > UT/Cena >>>>> UT/Lesnar

Taker choosing Cena is by far the best option. We get the Taker/Cena fued that we've never seen before, plus Rock and Lesnar put on one of my favorite matches ever so I would love to see them have a rematch.

Was that really a fued? If I remember correctly it was just one PPV match. Plus both of their characters are completely different now so, with Taker never losing a match at Wrestlemania, and Cena never losing a match in his life I think it has the best dynamic to it.

I realize the obvious point of difference. I was mostly trolling.

I could live with a Cena vs. Rock rematch if it involves the WWE title and Cena goes over.

phill - im amazed that you can still get excited about women wrestlers coming to the diva division on wwe. spoiler: its not going to end well.

Lol, im determined to stay excited about the diva division. It is like three or four good decisions away from being awesome.

Cena vs Taker iyam btw.

I would prefer to see Taker vs Brock next year and then Taker vs Cena at WM30 in his retirement match (assuming Taker can make it that far).

Don't know why people don't want Taker/Lesnar, seems like the best option. Yeah it means we get Cena/Rock 2 but if we have to have a Dwayne match then that would make more sense than the other two options (with Cena going over obv).

I mean Taker/Lesnar would hopefully be good, but it's just another Taker WM match where you can't even suspend disbelief and wonder if Taker might lose. I do think that Taker-Cena would present a Taker loss as a possibility, however remote.

When you don't have an excellent worker like HBK in the ring with him, a Taker match isn't going to be great on workrate so the reliance is on storytelling and psychology. I think Taker/Cena would have that in spades.
