Kobe Bryant was asked who he feels is the toughest opponent to guard in the NBA. Instead of picking OKC's Kevin Durant, Bryant went with Portland’s Brandon Roy.

Yeah, I'm right there with you. I've been one of the very few people who has defended the product but they're making it incredibly hard to defend the product, lol.

Agreed. I'd even managed to talk a few old school fans into watching again from about eighteen months ago and now they are coming to me asking wtf is going on... There's just no defense for it. Both shows are basically reduced to about the same 8 people, with zero effort and creativity put into their feuds and despite the infusion of new talent, the vast majority are left on the sidelines doing nothing. It's just so stale. I'm left to try and find other things I enjoy about it like the commentary but those are few and far between too.

I had the opposite happen @ spykelee

My cousin (old school fan), who never watches the weekly shows and I don't even think watched WrestleMania this year, said he's gonna watch this show just to see Goldberg vs Undertaker.

Wow! That's arguably the worst match on the entire card maybe minus the luchas... Ever since taker laid his gloves down in the ring at mania, every time he laces up the boots after that tarnishes his legacy in my eyes. I have zero interest in seeing him or Goldberg again. I could get the appeal for somebody who used to watch I guess, but those of us who know... Know not to watch lol.

I'm only looking forward to Goldberg-Taker to see how fun bad that match is.

I'd be a lot more interested if it were five years ago. Taker can't even remotely go any more, and I don't think Goldberg has ever been good enough to carry someone worthless to a good match that wasn't a quick squash.

It's like going to the Daytona 500 and looking to see a big car crash lol. I think fans are curious to see how two
old legends past their prime are gonna pull this off especially since one guys gimmick is to be king of squash
matches and another is a dead guy who always resurrects himself.

After the train wreck of DX vs. The Brothers of Destruction in Saudi Arabia last time I'm curious to see
if this can top that. Goldberg also likes to work stiff I want to see if Takers old body will take a few bumps
should be fascinating to see what happens lol.

I don't really care about the match quality tbh, it's just gonna be cool to (finally) see them go at it.

They should've been opponents at WrestleMania 20.

Goldberg vs Taker is going to be sad, its two over 50 year olds who can't work 2 minutes without getting gassed. I hope its a 2 minute brawl because otherwise, ideas aside, this will be all sorts of awful. Either that or it will be car crash tv.

Probably better to put a spoiler tag on it.

But if it will actually happen then :lol:
