- It's said that The Undertaker asked to work with Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania XXX. No word yet if it was discussed internally or anything.

If this is indeed true...


If not...

Would be a great match.

Yeah, sounds like the kind of rumor that says it's from the Observer but in reality it never was on the WON. Then again, even if Meltzer reported it, do we really believe the guy when it comes to this kind of reports anymore?

why d bry tho? we know he has no chance of winning and i cant see this as a way to put him over by the facing the old dead man smh wtf taker

 

[Hoss]

Interesting. This never even occurred to me.

If Taker truly wants it, it'll happen.

No matter what...NO ONE has any chance of winning it. lol. The whole gimmick of the match is suspension of belief and match quality..that's about it. I thought they wanted him to face Lesnar though but that may be out the door now that Lesnar is gonna get the title in Feb.

I still don't think Taker's body could handle a match with Lesnar.

If I had to guess. Taker knows D-Bry will take care of him in the ring and they would have an awesome match. It's a similar deal than the Punk match.

According to Paul Bearer, Taker respects those kinds of wrestlers because they've worked their asses off to get there (he told a story of Taker approaching Punk and then telling Bearer "he is one of us") and Kane could've also put the good word on D-Bry. Hell, when he worked that RAW in England he worked with D-Bry and post match they all posed together with Kane. Bryan also joked on a promo that Taker hugged him backstage after the match

Is this something that they reported? Or just an idea that Alverez and Meltzer were discussing on radio. People like spreading their predictions and hypothetical ideas as reported news.

Taker is pretty much Bryan's only shot at a marquee Mania 30 match right now.

I actually like this.... D Bry and Taker.

- We noted before that WWE had been planning to do Brock Lesnar vs. Big Show at the Royal Rumble pay-per-view. That was discussed back when Show was feuding with The Authority. The plan was for Show to be on top and go through Randy Orton and Triple H, but not win the title, but come out of the program as a strong main eventer. The idea was to make Show strong for Lesnar at the Rumble so Lesnar would look stronger for The Undertaker at WrestleMania XXX.
- Regarding Lesnar vs. Undertaker, there had been some concern because Lesnar works such a physical style and Taker is in really rough shape physically. This is why there was some talk of Sheamus facing Taker.

Another issue with Lesnar facing Taker is that a lot of Taker's opponents, if not all, over the past several years have secretly worked out their match with him and practiced it. There was some concern over whether or not Lesnar would be willing to put in that much time preparing.

wrestlinginc is going overload with this WON shyt

No clue, haven't heard the podcast and don't read the WON so who knows. @FreshAIG or @The Great One might know.
