    1) Agree-Right now, Chris Jericho is the best overall wrestler in the WWE, and he has been for quite some time. There are certain people who have better individual attributes (Shelton Benjamin is better in the ring, John Cena is better on the mic), but when you roll it all together, nobody is even close to Jericho. He's the complete package, without question.

    2) Agree-I'm a little suspect of moving him to RAW at all, but WWE seems to be quite high on him. To me, and I know this is a big comparison, Swagger looks like a young Kurt Angle. He's a great heel, his mic skills aren't outstanding, but they're decent, and he's an amazing wrestler. Plain and simple, he's one of the future superstars of the WWE.

    3) Agree/Disagree-The Undertaker vs. Kane the first time around at Wrestlemania was one of my all time favorite matches. It was a truly spectacular fued, and it culminated perfectly. Now, I really liked The Undertaker/Edge at Wrestlemania, and it WAS a great match, but it did have some flaws. It was to predictable that Undertaker was going to win and their fued has been way to dragged out.

    4) Agree/Disagree-I think that for fans who have been watching wrestling for over ten years now then absolutely, it'll be tough to move on from guys like The Rock, Steve Austin, The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels. But for fans of the last few years, they never really got a chance to see The Undertaker in his prime, so his retirement won't be as meaningful for them. You know what I mean?

    5) Agree-This one isn't even close. Randy Orton-Triple H has dragged RAW to one of the most boring, predictable eras in WWE history. Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker put on the greatest match in wrestling history, and that was with the added pressure of competing at the biggest event of all time with the tremendous amount of hype they had. Meanwhile, the Orton-Triple H match completely bombed and even Orton said in an interview that it sucked.

    6) Disagree-As you well know, I'm a HUGE Shawn Michaels fan, but bringing him back won't save RAW right now. Sure, it'll be a nice shot in the arm and will probably revitalize it, but Smackdown is just SO much better than RAW at the moment. Here is the cold, hard truth of RAW: As long as WWE keeps Randy Orton as the undisputed face of RAW, the show will continue to tank.

    7) Agree-He's really improved lately, since Vince started putting him on probation. I think that's saving him at the moment. However, ever since he returned from his marriage to Krystal a few years ago, he has basically just been an on-screen prop. Now however, he's actually turned into an interesting character.

    8) Agree-Haha, I think that's true of EVERYONE that faces The Undertaker at Wrestlemania from now on. That would be a tremendous match and I'd love to see it, but I think we can all agree that Jericho would have zero shot at ending the streak. He'd be a great addition to it though. Every fan wants their favorite wrestler to be the company's biggest star though. I'm no exception, I honestly wanted Shawn Michaels to end the streak.

    9) Disagree-Man, this one was tough, it took me a while before I could decide on an answer. Even though they've only faced each other a few times, they do seem incredibly linked to one another. However, I think that Shawn Michaels is better than The Undertaker. It's a really close call, but to me, Shawn Michaels has always been the one definitive performer in professional wrestling. Some may not agree, but I think that Shawn Michaels is the best of all time.

    10) Disagree-Hey, you never know. Back in the 80's, WCW was a joke in comparison to WWF, but look at the major comeback they made. In fact, they beat WWF for a long, long time in the Monday Night Wars. Now, they created their own demise but still, they gave WWF a serious run for their money. So you just never know.

    1) He's the best in the business right now.

    2) Totally. He's a very good wrestler with + mic skills

    3) No arguments thre.

    4) Yes and no. They can never replace the legends, just like no one replaced Rock, Austin, Hard, Eddie, however they can still find a new place in the fans' hearts. I think youngsters like Punk, Bourne, Morrison, Miz, DH Smith and Tyson Kidd have a good chance at hitting that same level of stardom.

    5) I liked the Orton/Triple H feud far more at the beginning...but seeing the way it's dragged out like this, I have to admit, Taker/HBK was far better.

    6) No, I don't think so. HBK will help RAW but not enough to close the gap on SD. Nor will he be back long enough to really change things up.

    7) Complete agreement.

    8) If anyone deserves to win, it's Jericho. But I don't know if anyone will break the streak, even if Undertaker asks them to.

    9) They're equally legendary, yes. Both are in the top ten of all time for WWE wrestlers.

    10) Nope, never. Neither of them would ever want it to happen.

    1. Agree. Sure, he's great in the ring and on the mic. Can't get any better than that.

    2. Agree. Jack Swagger had a good run on ECW and will definitely be a major star on RAW if he's used right and doesn't get lost in the roster shuffle.

    3. Disagree. They were great but I don't know about legendary.

    4. Agree. If the young stars are made to look credible while the legends are still around then they have a chance of filling the gap. But they'll never fill the gap in the heart's of fans. I won't lose any sleep knowing some of these guys stull aren't around but it will be heartbreaking. The only advice I have is for WWE to start getting the most out of their most trustworthy and hardworking new superstars, so that when the time comes for them to get pushed, they know who to rely on.

    5. Agree.

    6. Disagree. HBK won't be able to make the entire RAW show good as a whole. To me, good wrestling is always going to outmatch average wrestling and great storylines, unless RAW has some mind blowing angle that can change the face of wrestling. I think Smackdown will continue to be superior if they continue to establish stars and produce the best wrestling matches. But who knows, with the draft, RAW has the oppurtunity to create bettter matches than those on Smackdown if they take advantage of the talent. In that case, RAW will be a step over Smackdown.

    7. Disagree. I liked Eric Bishoff.

    8. Agree. Fans will always complain. Especially those who aren't fans of Undertaker and his winning streak.

    9. Agree. At first glance their legacies are equal/

    10. Agree. That's a bit far fetched.

    1. I agree he's a big superstar great charisma and great in ring abilities he's one of the best in the business today and somewhat underrated because he hasn't had any push for the WHC title yet which doesn't make sense.

    2. Agree he is in my opinion the brightest young star (yes I think bourne is good but he's not world heavyweight material at least not yet) but Swagger is a near future Main Eventer.

    3. Agree definitely both matches were great build ups and great matches

    4. Agree It's going to be hard when eventually all the stars we used to love aka HBK Undertaker Hardyz Triple H Jericho Edge Mysterio Kane etc. when they are gone it's going to be sad but I'm sure some young guys will come in and become the next huge superstar or two.

    5. Yeah without a shadow of a doubt Orton and the nose is the most boring feud in history of feuds

    6. It's very possibly because of the addition of Bourne Swagger and Henry if they are all used right and then HBK returns yeah it will be huge.

    7. Actually I preferred Stephanie McMahon and Paul Heymen to Teddy Long personally I don't think Smackdowns really had a good GM, I think the only truly good GM's are Vince and Eric Bishoff

    8. I'm sure people will think he should win yea I agree

    9. Agree both very similar actually both are iconic legends two of the best in the history of the business among other legendary wrestlers of course.

    10. In a ratings war? if TNA ever picks up a 2nd show that directly goes head to head with either Raw or Smackdown or it moves Impact to monday or friday then yeah it could happen WWE would take notice and begin to feud with TNA, TNA has already called out shots at WWE to take notice but unsuccessfully.

    1. Yes he is in the top 5 greatest wrestlers of all time.

    2. Yes this man has made me watch ECW because he in my mind is a combination of Kurt Angle and Brock Lesnar which is a really good thing.

    3. Yes no other words but yes.

    4. Yes I think that will happen because people come people go but imagine the day we know that this is HBK, Undertaker, Kane, Edge, Jericho, HHH and many more superstars final match in my mind it will never easily fill in the fans hearts.

    5. Hell Yes if this was triple H vs Orton for the first time it would be good but it has happened almost ten times and it has just got really stale.

    6. No Raw is good but Smackdown is amazing they are using every superstar great and this Jericho and Edge thing is a great help to the tag team division.

    7. Yes in my mind he has made smackdown he is smackdown while he wasn't gm it didn't feel like smackdown.

    8. Yes but the thing is The Undertaker's streak is a legacy knowone will ever beat it.

    9. Yes they are both amazing performers.

    10. Yes Jarrett has said he would rather TNA go bankrupt than sell it to WWE.

    1. True

    2. True

    3. True

    1. Edge-Jericho should feud with The Hart Dynasty: Yes, they should feud.. It would give Dynasty a big push.. 2. Orton-HHH-Cena : Boring as hell.: Definitely agree.. I think it's one of the most boring feuds in the history of wrestling.. Well, this one recently, because back in 2006, HHH-Cena was interesting.. 3. Jericho vs Taker vs Morrison for WM 26 will be better than Jericho vs Taker for WM 26: I disagree.. I think there's no need to make it a Triple Threat Match when Y2J and 'Taker can steal the whole show.. 4. Mark Henry is a main eventer: No.. 5. Believing Taker will return at Summerslam 2009 as ABA is beyond stupid.: No, I think anything can happen, and it would make his persona better since personally for me, I am tired of 'The Deadman' gimmick.. 6. Legacy needs to stop ASAP: Oh gosh, yes please.. 7. ECW > RAW: I agree 100% percent.. Raw sucks.. But now with Jack Swagger in Raw, it CAN make a difference.. 8. Swagger will be 'killed' just like MVP on RAW.: Back to my previous answer, I don't think that will happen.. MVP got "killed" because of his baby-face turn.. 9. The next NBA finals will be held inside HHH's left nostril.: Yes, it's big enough to hold it.. 10. Wrestlemania without Mr. Wrestlemania & The Streak will never be the same.: You got that right.. WrestleMania was made for Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker, and without those guys, it won't feel good..
