The Official WWE Discussion Thread

To be honest i think it's completely disrespectful that wwe are using the death of somebody in the way they are, especially the way they seem to be playing games with an urn and even to go as far as doing a story line tipping somebody's ashes over somebody is disgusting... they've hit a new low with this one.

I think it's ridiculous that people are up in arms about this stuff - like they know better than the people who knew them personally. The fact that the Undertaker cleared this stuff to happen proves that William Moody would have been okay with this occuring after his death. To me, it says more about how YOU feel about death and you're transplanting your own fears and fragilities onto others to vocalise your outrage. I for one will certainly not be claiming that I know his wishes better than the people who travelled with him and cared about him.

Also, on point, as far as I am aware it has never been suggested that Paul Bearer's [or indeed anyone's] ashes were in the urn. It is merely a symbol of the Undertaker's "power".

I'm not outraged, I don't fear death, I'm just saying for a multi-million dollar company to play around with somebody's death is cheap and to many people it can be seen as disrespectful... end of the day wrestling is all written and scripted anyway so i'm aware that undertaker ect have all agreed to do it, but it's still sports entertainment and a wide range of people watch it and I think the majority of people would agree there is no need to throw around an urn.... it just makes wwe look even more unreal and fake.

Plus Taker has a lot of power in the WWE, if this was something Paul wouldn't have liked, there is no way in hell taker would do it, well in my opinion anyway.

Yeah, I'm sure it's not like they would have planned ALL this if he were alive.

Bearer loved working in the WWF, and would have at least seen the point of what they were doing. Hell, he was a mortician, himself. If that doesn't inure you to black comedy, I'm not sure what does.

don't watch it then.

like i said before, the family gave permission for wwe to use this storyline. I think its made CM Punks "bad guy" image even greater, which is great for the fans and punk himself

I wasn't going too anyway..... here's the results..

i see I'm not the only one who reads bleacherreport lol, although most there predictions, i and many others can predict.

Wwe is far too predictable now, only thing i haven't got right was mae young giving birth to a hand and mark henry being the father, again that was ridiculous..

wwe are gonna profit off paul bearers death no doubt, imagine what the build up would have been like had he not died, it probably would have started off with taker staring at the WM sign and to punk then punk would have jumped taker numerous times, that would have been it.

Someone said taker winning would serve as payback and restore the legacy of bearer, that is good but last time i checked this match revolves around takers streak did it not?

every match is predictable on the card, only surprise would be a cena heel turn or rock retaining
