Did anyone see HBK turned down a comeback vs Styles at WM? So sad on so many levels
I'm a HUGE HBK fan, but he said after WM26 he was done, he wasn't lying. He also needs a knee replacement and his back is still jacked. I'm glad he said I, I'd hate to see him go out there and Goldberg it for however long. Yeah, he can probably still do 80% of his normal stuff, but you know it would like stiff and just not like Mr. Wrestlemania.Did anyone see HBK turned down a comeback vs Styles at WM?

Honestly it's bullshit they can't build a Wrestlemania card around the talent they have on the roster.
Relying on guys from the past can only take you so far.
You know what bothers me about their business model more than other things...its their travel schedule of two brands. Both brands have a live event on the same night as televised weekly programing. If someone is paying to go to a live event on a Monday, they are pretty hardcore fans. Why subject them to missing out on your weekly tv show?They could build a card around their current roster, they just choose not to. They try to promote 'Mania as a show for casual viewers, but the problem with that is that those people don't stick around to watch the weekly TV stuff, buy tickets to live shows, or subscribe long-term to the Network. Essentially, the WWE gives them Wrestlemania for free via Network offers, builds the show around them, and then they stop caring the moment the show is over.
It's a dumb business model.

Not to mention their tour schedule is hell on these guys and just rotating it could save a ton on everyones "bump card".
A lot of people think this. There's a betting line on it.I have a hunch Cena proposes after their match. Could be planned, or not, but I think it's coming.

It's a perfect ending to Nikki's career, her and John's story, and probably total divas.Yup. It's been commonly theorized since the news hit that Cena would be teaming up with Nikki against Miz and Maryse a couple of months back instead of facing the Undertaker like was supposedly the original plan. This, by the way, is probably why the Undertaker came back to Smackdown around Survivor Series and said he was "team blue for life," only to never appear on Smackdown again. He was originally slotted to face Cena, and so they were setting it up with Taker coming to Smackdown, but then plans changed and Taker went to Raw to feud with Reigns (who the WWE wants desperately to be Cena).
This led to speculation that it would be Nikki's retirement match given her neck issues, and that Cena would propose at the end. Why else involve him in this feud?
