Welcome everyone to a special edition of Guilty as Blogged. I know some people were expecting the Talent Exchange but I was not able to get a hold of Chris Jacks in time. Since he will be giving you his predictions in his blog I will be giving you mine now. I fully expect a great show on all ends.All matches should be very good and well worth $55. Hopefully we can get mother nature to cooperate and have good weather.
ECW Championship Match.
As I mentioned last time in my blog I think that Dreamer should and could win. Of course with the title of every ECW episode being called Starring the monster Kane one could very well think that Kane could win. With all of his fame in India Khali could also win it. It’s a huge toss up for the battle royal but the match should e preety clear: Chavo loses. I just dont see Chavo losing. Although a great heel champion WWE will probably not let him win unless someone like Deuce or Festus wins the battle royal… which they wont.
Finlay vs. JBL- Belfast Brawl
Well this is a no brainer. Finlay will obviously get the win in the traditional Hornswoggle distracting shillelagh to the head style. At first this match scared me. I thought “O crap JBL in a WrestleMania match”. Now dont get me wrong JBL is a good wrestler just not that good. Now that it’s no dq we should see a lot of brutality and blood. Expect a no dq version of JBL vs. Y2J from the Rumble.
BunnyMania
Maria and Ashley. This is also a no brainer. It’ll be a softcore porno with Santino interfering somewhere and Snoop Dogg or Jerry kicking the crap out of him. Why cant we have more divas like Beth?
Batista vs. Umaga
I am looking forward to this match a lot. I think Batista is a great athlete and Umaga is a very good brawler. The two styles should compliment themselves nicely and put on a five star match. As for the winner I can only see Batista winning. I hope Umaga will come to Smackdown soon.
Money in the Bank
First let’s look at who wont win. Carltio: No chance, Shelton Benjamin: Not quite at there yet, John Morrison: No chance, MVP: Has to finish feud with Matt Hardy. So this leaves us CM Punk, Y2J, and Mr. Kennedy. CM Punk would definitely have to be traded before cashing it in, Mr. Kennedy will probably use it that night and lose the match, and Y2J would turn heel again with it. I honestly do think that he would turn heel and use it whenever Cena regains it. My final guess is y2J.
Floyd Mayweather vs. Big Show
I really don’t care. This match alone is what WWE is basing WrestleMania on. I dont think it’ll be good because of the amount of scripting their going to have to do. I hope Show wins but I wont be surprised if it’s Mayweather.
World Heavyweight Championship
Wow. I am going to love this match. Edge is one of my top ten wrestlers and Undertaker is number one. These two have had a great rivalry ever since last year in May. If Undertaker dosent win by pinfall it’ll probably be DQ. I would’nt be surprised if there was a DQ although it’s not likely. With Edge the only heel contender for the strap they need to keep this feud going until the draft.
WWE Championship
I’m not going to love this match. I will be having a nervous breakdown. I’ve already sworn that if Cena wins I’m not watching Raw until he loses the belt. With that said my first pick is Triple H. Triple H does not deserve evry one of the eleven championships he’s had but he deserves this one. Orton however has the momentum theory on his side. Usually the one who gets the least momentum on the go home show wins at WrestleMania. But then again there’s Superman. It’s a huge toss up
Shawn Michaels vs. Ric Flair
What could be Ric Flair’s last match I hope to be a great one. These two had a match at Bad Blood once and it was’nt that good. I hope to God that this is. The match will be won by figure four either by Michaels or Flair’s. I will cry during this match. Flair is the best. I dont want it to end but I know it has to.
I hope everyone has a good WrestleMania. I’ve already got my dinner ready for it chips, dip, and soda. I am ready and psyched.

Great blog as usual Luke.Here is my rundown of WM Picks starting with my least fav up to my fav match.
Bunnymania – Sanchico interferes costing Maria and Ashley the match and gets royally beat down after.
Big Show- Mayweather- With the way WWE booked this , I was not sure who to cheer for.It should be a snoozefest.Whoever wins is fine by me.
ECW Battle Royal/Title Match – I see Kane, Kofi, Kendrick,Khali or Holly winning the belt from OOOO Chavo.
Finlay/JBL – For Hornswoggle to get some redemption JBL is gonna get his ass beat.Should be a bloody match though seeing as how JBL was 17 time Hardcore Champ.The match should not be as bad as expected.
Batista-Umaga – Umaga has had some excellent matches.I see this match being similar to the one had against HHH at Cyber Sunday with the same result.Umaga loses to Batista.Should be damn physical.
WWE Championship.I would like Orton to retain and feud with MITB winner but I see HHH winning as a definite possibility so I am yet undecided.
MITB- I don’t see Kennedy repeating this year.I see a face winning, so either Y2J or Punk for me. If Matt is indeed 8th entrant I expect him to do a spot viz a viz the one Jeff did on Edge last year.
HBK/Flair – Should be a good technical wrestling match with Flair losing to Shawn cleanly and bowing out wish some dignity.Thanks Naitch.
Taker/Edge- Ahh, I really want Taker to beat the holy hell out of Edge in this especially after Edge duck and ran this past 3 weeks from him.A DQ victory does seem like a possibility though I hope it does not go that way and I hope Take makes Edge REST IN PEACE.
Have a grand WM everyone.See u back next week.

Anthony, I was liking this one until you got to the WWE title match. You sound just like the millions of the brainwashed masses who hate Cena for no reason. If there’s anyone to be mad at for it, it’s the “First Family”. They’re the ones that turned him into Superman. By the way, they are going to continue that by seeing that Cena doesn’t get pinned by HHH. Personally, I didn’t like the stab at Cena, as if you couldn’t tell. I’m not the greatest fan of the guy, and I wouldn’t have changed him from his Thuganomics gimmick. But, I don’t villify the guy just because of what the company makes him out to be.

I haven’t done predictions in a while.
ECW Championship – I’m with you because I hope Tommy Dreamer or Kane wins this match. Hopefully, who ever wins actually WINS the title and isn’t being set up to job.
Bunny Mania – I see we passed up Mickie James vs Beth Phoenix for this match. I’m not suprised. Vince seems to be allergic to good women’s wrestling. I’m all for seeing hot women, but at WrestleMania, I want to see a Match. Trish vs Mickie James still in my view is the best Women’s Championship Match at WrestleMania.
Money in the Bank Ladder Match – I really don’t see Kennedy winning because he had his chance last time and he messed himself up. If Money in the Bank comes before the ECW Title Match, I could see Punk winning and cashing it in making it a Triple Threat Match for the ECW Title. That’d be interesting. My pick is either MVP or Y2J, but as much as I like MVP as World Title Material, I see Y2J winning.
Big Show vs Floyd Mayweather – I just hope Vince makes this as big as he’s made it. It’s been on ESPN, The Today Show, the Tonight Show, etc. This has gotten quite a lot of media attention. Last year’s Battle of the Billionaires wasn’t exactly eye-popping. Don’t be suprised if Mayweather wins this one.
Batista vs Umaga – This one is obvious. Batista gets the win, but I would like to see Umaga move to SmackDown to continue the feud because Umaga has done all he has to do on RAW. I expect a hard-worked match and Batista to win.
Finlay vs JBL – I wanted to see Vince vs Finlay, but JBL is the next best thing. Hornswoggle will make his triumphant return and help Finlay get the win, but it’s Belfast Brawl, so it should be any ordinary WrestleMania street fight.
World Heavyweight Championship – I hate that this isn’t Streak vs Streak as Edge hasn’t lost at WrestleMania, but that’s beside the point. I love this match, although the feud could’ve used a little more buildup. Undertaker is going to win this one, but this should be Match of the Night.
WWE Championship – You could pretty much tell Cena will win this one. 3 straight WrestleManias with Cena as WWE Champion makes for such joy. He just came back from surgery, and Orton has had a good, long reign with the belt, so I doubt HHH will win this one. I see Cena pinning HHH, a rematch between the 3 at Backlash, and afterwards, HHH and Cena feud one-on-one.
HBK vs Ric Flair – That segment on RAW made me so amped to see this match. That is the best way to build a feud. Unfortunately, Super Cena will bump this out of the Main Event spot, but this should be on the greatest matches. This better be give 20-25 Minutes. A great last match for Flair and an emotional hug between friends to end his career.

Sorry Anthony bout the Luke typo.My bad.Will be careful when I am typing in future
March 30th, 2008 at 12:46 pm
Big D. I want to explain something to you. I dont hate Cena for nothing. i hate him because of his hogging the championship. And it’s not just Cena I hate for doing that. I hated Triple H when he was doing it and I hate the fact that Hogan hogged it. There are a lot more people who deserve the belt then him.

john cena a very good wrestler, his also very entertaining. wwe keep the title on him too long, so people resent him. Im one of those people. wwe should of built up a return for him, instead of throwing him into the rumble. like had him make a huge save from a 2 on 1 attack. Then the fans all of them would appreciate cena again, i think.
March 30th, 2008 at 5:26 pm
Very good Wrestler – Ehh
Very Entertaining – Not in the least. If this was the heel Cena which I miss dearly, then I’d agree.
