    No need for this thread..already one there

    My predictions:

    Edge vs. Undertaker (Hell in a Cell Match) Undertaker
    WWE Champion Triple H vs. The Great Khali *
    World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk vs. JBL *
    ECW Champion Mark Henry vs. Matt Hardy Mark Henry
    John Cena vs. Batista Batista
    Montel Vontavious Porter vs. Jeff Hardy Jeff Hardy
    Winners Take All Tag Team Match Santino & Beth

    *I have a gut feeling that either HHH or CM Punk will lose their title. I'm still unsure as to whether or not I believe Orton is injured. If not, he could show up and with another Adamle original, he could enter the mix with JBL and CM Punk and win the title. (Either that or my mind has gone into overdrive! Most probably the latter!)

    Khali @ 7-2 could be a good one - Its possible HHH has decided to take it easy for a few months so he can spend more time with his new baby. I'll stick a few quid on it.

    Triple H, Undertaker and Mark Henry is where my money is going.

    Agree 100%

    Khali's knees are totally shot. Even at a 100% Khali is still Khali and they arent putting the title on him again. Undertaker is combing back after a decently long departure and the HITC is his match. Henry/Hardy is ECW's only marquee feud, so they will string out Hardy's eventual title win.

    Id add Santino/Beth to that list of near certainties. As the writing team loves the couple which is demonstrated by them giving this feud half an hour and two matches to build it up on the last Raw before Summerlsam.

    WHAT ??? omg thats savage how??? is there a delay on using laser cards?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 464 ✭✭redmosquito


    A safe €100 on 'Taker there, has to be easy money!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,148 ✭✭✭mehfesto2


    Betting on the WWE doesn't look like it's worth anyones time. Them odds are ridiculous. I know some people might have ways of knowing the results before it happens and all, but it just looks like a terrible way to gamble. There's feck all money to be made.

    What's needed is a fantasy-football type of game.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 251 ✭✭heymayo


    well €10 accumulator on 4 matchs would work out as something like €94 profit!

    well considering the wrestling is so predictable it should be hany to win

    i just bit the bullet and put €100 on Taker to win, prob do accumulator later!


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,854 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    people should remember that DQ wins dont count as you getting your money so avoid betting on Cena/Batista and maybe even Hardy/Henry IMO as they will want to string that one out.

    good point , im avoiding some of them alright, even the JBL/Cm Punk, I reckon Punk will take the title home but not sure how??

    But Taker/Edge seems nice bet to me!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,810 ✭✭✭DRakE


    i'm at a loss figuring out how to do the accum :(


    edit: figured it out, duh :rolleyes:

    Is this the wrong time to point out the original finish was meant to be Edge winning after Foley interferes?

    Hence why rovert said the "original finish"

    Foley's still under contract through to the end of the month though. If they want him to get involved in the match he'll have to

    100 of what are we talking about here?...

    i might want in on your wager ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,594 ✭✭✭Fozzy


    My predictions are:

    Undertaker to win
    Triple H to retain in a surprisingly good match (I'm sticking my arm out on the "good" part)
    Punk to retain in his clearest title defence so far
    Mark Henry to retain
    Batista to pin Cena
    MVP to beat Jeff
    Santino and Beth to win the titles
    Shawn to announce that he'll be back, but Jericho will beat him up. I'm looking forward to this

    I think that it could be a really good show. One of the few PPVs that I have really high hopes for

    How does one collect their winnings if the bet is placed online?:confused:

    If €94 is so little, will someone please post €94 to me. I would be handy.

    Which will still be an unclean finish , they give him the belt and put no faith in him.


    I think i might actually stay up for this one, Its a good card , theres alot of pressure on the edge/undertaker match to be 5 stars.When are Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase going to defend there titles on a PPV ?

    The Undertaker vs. Edge
    It’s the final match of this feud and its Taker return after his long break, and Taker NEVER loses these matches. A banker if they’re ever was one. This will be probably be the match of the night as well.
    ECW Championship: Mark Henry (c) vs. Matt Hardy
    With the lack of main eveners on ECW they will drag this one out. Henry will sadly win tonight with interference from his manager. Matt will win it down the road though.
    WWE Championship: Triple H (c) vs. The Great Khali
    The unstoppable burying machine vs. the worst wrestler in the WWE today. This match will be short but utterly wretched. Superhunter's incredibly tedious title reign continuing is another banker.
    John Cena vs. Batista
    Cena deserves to win this, e has jobbed 4 out of the last 6 PPV’S and even opened one which is something a certain Smackdown superstar will never do! I do expect this feud to end tonight as well; they will want to keep this feud fresh for Mania. If Orton is ready he will return here and end the match in a disqualification.
    Intergender match for Women's championship and Intercontinental championship - Winner Takes all: Kofi Kingston (c) and Mickie James (c) vs. Santino Marella and Beth Phoenix
    Santino Marella - Women's champion may be fun, Beth as intercontinental champ will not be …..
    World Heavyweight Championship: CM Punk (c) vs. John "Bradshaw" Layfield
    Impossible to call, JBL winning tonight would be a disgrace as he’s a joke in the rig but anyone who goes clean over Cena is thought of very highly by Vince and Co. I still think Punk will though.
    Jeff Hardy vs. Montel Vontavious Porter
    Should be a good match, MVOP needs the win, but Jeff is a bigger star so he will probably go over.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,296 ✭✭✭✭gimmick


    ye they are :)

    When? I could have sworn in the graphic on Bottom Line earlier had Cena and Batista each holding a belt? That said, I am probably wrong.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101

    Normally they just pump it into your account with most online bookies but I think with Hacketts they post it out. Not sure exactly though as I only have that account for wrestling and this is the first time I've used it.

    As a word of warning though, I think that you just did your leaving cert (could be completely wrong) so if your under 18, Hackett's probably will have little problem with letting you place a bet, but could have a massive problem when it comes to you wanting to take winnings out

    Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase beat Cena + Batista this week on raw to win back the Tag Team Belts.

    A pin or submission with little or no interference.
