As I said, this was clearly hotshotting at it's worst. Taker and HHH can't really go with young guys like Barrett and Sheamus and they've half assed Del Rio's push so they wedge in HHH/Taker.

half assed Del Rios push?? he only whips the IC champs ass EVERY WEEK!!!!!!! I think they push him too much!!!
The Reason For Sheamus Being Pushed Down
One of the reasons for WWE curtailing the push of Sheamus in recent weeks is because Kevin Dunn, the organization’s Executive Vice President of Television Production, is not a fan of his.
Several months ago on an episode of Monday Night RAW, Sheamus was booked to cower away in fear from The Nexus. This reportedly led Dunn to brainstorm the “King Sheamus” persona, including outfit, as means to mock him.
It’s been noted over the years that behind Vince McMahon, Dunn has the biggest say in the company’s creative direction.

^^^^^damn
Once again it's the "Fuck the fans, I don't like it." approach by WWE...This is why I really don't watch like I used to...Fuck Vince and Kevin Dunn...
I never liked Sheamus but that is pretty fucked up.
Paul Heyman once did an interview where he said the wwe is basically vince's party for one. I will never forget the time they were making fun of jr's serious condition where he needed to get a colonoscopy, after the skit was done airing the arena was dead silent and the look on vince's face was of complete embarrassment.
I'd love for Michaels to hit HHH with sweet chin music, UT win, and he tells HHH, If I don't beat him, no one does!!!
will this be another career vs streak match ? If so I see Taker winning.
I would be sooooo pissed if taker loses to hhh, he is not even in the neighborhood career wise.
Dude came in hot and then lost clean several times and now he's hot again. That's half assed for a guy you want in a world title match at Mania.
Check this out
Confirming what Mike Johnson first reported here on PWInsider.com, former WWE writer John Piermarini wrote the following on his blog discussing the Undertaker/Triple H staredown on RAW:
"Reason #121 why you don't believe everything you read in dirt sheets. They were reporting Undertaker vs. Wade Barrett, Undertaker and Kane vs. The Corre and other incarnations of WM matches for Taker but this match was planned since last August. Now that it's out there I can reveal that."
There is nothing to brag about when you've spent exactly zero days building what should have been a major match at the biggest show of the year.
On a whole other note of bullshit............
Presser: ‘Angelina’ Is Coming To TNA iMPACT!
By Ryan Clark on February 24, 2011
TNA made the following announcement today…
ANGELINA FROM THE “JERSEY SHORE” TO GET IN THE WRESTLING RING AND ISSUE A SPECIAL CHALLENGE
Angelina To Guest Star In Two Episodes Of Spike TV’s “TNA iMPACT!” In March
Angelina Pivarnivck, a former cast member of MTV’s megahit series “The Jersey Shore,” is taking her talents into the wrestling ring. Angelina will appear on two upcoming “TNA IMPACT” episodes on SPIKE TV, Thursday, March 3 at 9:00pm ET/PT and Thursday, March 10 at 9:00pm ET/PT.
In the episode, Angelina will meet and partner with the wrestling duo “The Shore,” comprised of Cookie and Robbie E, and make her professional wrestling debut in the TNA ring. Angelina and “The Shore” share a mutual hatred of “Jersey Shore” star, J-Woww, whom she will challenge publicly to meet her in the ring for a full-on brawl.
Last October, J-Woww made an appearance on TNA where she pounded the trash-talking Cookie (who bares a striking resemblance to Snooki).
UPDATE x2: Dixie Carter posted the following on Twitter… Angelina from MTV’s Jersey Shore will make her wrestling debut on the 3/3 TNA iMPACT on Spike! Visit TMZ.com and TNAwrestling.com for info!
UPDATE: Angelina Pivarnick has posted on Twitter that she would be getting up to do some “TNA training.” Many expect that she will debut on the TNA tapings tonight in a pre-taped segment.
ORIGINAL: According to TMZ, Jersey Shore’s Angelina is heading to TNA next month. Angelina and TNA had been negotiating for over a month, and she has now signed a short term deal with the company. Word is that she will make her debut in a tag team match, which will involve TNA’s Cookie. While Angelina has a short-term contract, word is that she wants to wrestle JWoWW on PPV.
This is to u TNA, Hulk Hogan, Vince Russo, Jeff Jarret, Eric Bischoff, and Dixie Carter..............................

This is to u TNA, Hulk Hogan, Vince Russo, Jeff Jarret, Eric Bischoff, and Dixie Carter..............................

TNA trying to get this Jersey Shore audience is just pathetic.
Those idiots don't even realize that its not the people we like when we watch the Jersey Shore. Its the drama. The show is bigger than any actor on that show so when they go and bring these reality stars on to TNA its just stale. I mean fuck TNA. I been said that shit. I've never seen shit in them. NEVER. I know some liked them earlier but i've never liked that shit. Its always reminded me of WCW at the end of its run.
they stay fucking up i swear, this fucking suprise thet planning for tonight better be epic!!! who the fuck cares if the jersey bitch wrestling, they getting desperate and pitiful
I know the secret surpise for TNA........
seriously
seriously
just seen the WWE Undertaker rip off TNA doing with 3 3 11, shameful, and since the show is taped I already know what happens next week. shit is shameful!!!! The Rock return it is not. u wanna suprise me, bring in Heyman and let him get to firing LIVE!!!!!!!!!
so what's the story on the angle ex? weren't they really married? Something about her i like.. but we need more of her...
she married 2 jeff in real life now. tna sent him home initially because Angle old lady and the kids were living with Jeff after her and Kurt broke up, causing trouble and shit
co-fucking-sign
Yes it is along with them and their surprises.On the Between the Ropes radio show 1 of the hosts said something that TNA should heed when discussing the Rock's comeback.He said that a good surprise is cool but it will never equal the ratings bump that alerting the public beforehand will.Instead of having people show up out of the blue to the same group of people who normally watch hype them and let the rating improve. Raw's rating went up this week because The Rock was all over the commercials.Also instead of taking time to hype up 1rst time matches or matches that have been waited for TNA just does them out of the blue with no buildup.

Not to mention Jersey Shore new episodes come on during the 2nd hour of Impact. Who's going to switch from a new episode of Jersey Shore to watch one person from the show (this chick ain't even on the show anymore) pretend fight somebody on Impact? That shit is retarded.
Can't bring in heyman because the first people he would fire on would be hogan and bischoff
It's not really a rip off. TNA's been doing the "event" Impacts since Hogan and Bischoff got there. Since they make most of their money off tv deals and not ppvs, they try to drive viewers to Impact.
It's actually very clever as Bischoff can say "look at how the ratings improved since we got here" as a defense of the way he dominates way too much of the show and brings very little bang for however many bucks Dixie Carter shells out.
I also see it more as a shot at 2/21/11. TNA knows people were guessing Sting and they're having a little fun.

Na fam, that shit last night was a rip off!! A dude in black boots, long black trench coat, walking outside in the rain. Walking up some steps then in firey and smokey numbers 3 3 11 comes up!! That's not a rip off???
^^^yeah, I ain't wanna tell what happened
Take the TNA title off of Hardy (for good reason)...and put it on a 51 year old guy on his first match back? WTF? Why did they take it off of Anderson? THIS SHIT IS STUPID.
No. That's them taking a shot at WWE and all the "smart" fans that thought 2/21/11 was Sting. This is textbook Russo fucking with "smart marks".
I'm not a fan of putting the belt on Sting instead of AJ (who got a monster pop when he Styles Clashed Hardy on Impact) or RVD. I doubt Sting will have some long dominant reign (he never does)but it's not like he beat one of the younger guys.
I dl it the first they it came out. Me and my friends on XBL were downloading user created WCW wrestlers and battleing it out, fun shit.
