Batista is only built to be a monster, because Vince McMahon has a big man fetish. None of Batista's matches have been particularly memorable like Benoit's or Jericho's. Even back in OVW, Batista wasn't anything special. If you want a good big man wrestler, look at Brock Lesnar. Look how many times the WWE has tried to bite Lesnar's style with wrestlers like Nathan Jones or Matt Morgan. Both of those guys were crap rip-offs and so was Mark Henry.

I've been watching wrestling since 1990 and wrestlers like Jericho, Benoit, Taker, HBK and Booker T are the only ones left that are of any interest to me. I don't like the current product of wrestling and once all the old guys leave, I really believe I'll lose all my interest in wrestling. I don't know what you guys think but I'm glad I got to see the WWE from 1994-2003 with guys like those I mentioned up there along with Bret Hart, Kurt Angle, Stone Cold, The Rock, and Mankind. The New Hart Foundation vs Stone Cold. Bret Hart/Stone Cold at Wrestlemania 13. Bret Hart/HBK. I loved the DX/Nation of Domination feud and the DX/Corporation feud. I loved watching the Ministry of Darkness. The Stone Cold/Rock feud with their 3 Wrestlemania matches. The Rock and Triple H feud from 1998-2000. Smackdown in 2003 with the "Smackdown Six" Angle, Benoit, Rey, Edge, Eddie, and Chavo. They put on some great matches. Kurt Angle/Benoit, Kurt/Lesner, Lesner/Benoit, those 3 guys put on some amazing matches. Now its 2007 and I'm losing interest in the WWE. I don't know how long Taker, Benoit, Booker, and HBK are going to wrestle anymore but once they're done, I feel like I could lose all interest in the WWE. I don't want to watch a WWE with Cena and Lashley as their top guys. How do you guys feel about being a WWE fan in the future?

Maybe if all that happens, I'll be a big WWE fan again, but as it is I've been losing interest for the last two or three years. If things don't change, I'll be a fan of WWE still, but a fan of the WWE/WWF days from the '97 to '04.

I'm not too fond of the women's match, but it's basically a push for Ashley's playboy cover.
She'll be pushed back within a few weeks. Hope Mickie gets her title back<3

Taker/Batista should have been the main event, especially with Taker winning. It would have been so much better ending the show with it.
The Hardy Boyz won the Raw tag team titles....NO!!!!!!!! No more Mattitude on Smackdown??? The WWE is just bsing Smackdown so much with Benoit moving over to Raw and maybe even Matt now. Plus they stick no talent Batista and the Boogeyman on Smackdown.

Cena is awesome!
he's one of the few people with sane heads in the industry.
{the fact that he's hot doesn't hurt either

I think that Orton's problems wouldn't be helped with a move to Smackdown. I think he'd be an ass wherever he went. Also, isn't Batista and/or Booker major heels? It's not just Finlay and Kennedy.

As for Cena, I've only been a fan of his heel gimmick when he used to do his raps.(I remember reading somewhere about Cena and his raps and how they asked him to tone it down a bit and he decided not to rap anymore because he wanted to say whatever he wanted.) I never really liked him when he turned face. He's not the worst wrestler but I'm just not a fan of his.
I was watching old tapes of Smackdown that I recorded back in the day and Smackdown used to OWN Raw back then. My favorite Smackdown match of all time has to be the Eddie/Edge Do DQ match. Another good one was the Lesner/Angle Iron Man match and any match involving both Angle and Benoit.
