Paid Members CleetusVanDamme Posted March 11, 2013 Paid Members Posted March 11, 2013 Reminder: Raw starts at midnight tonight.
AshC Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 It's not for the casual WWE fan for sure But the people complaining about it on here aren't just 'casual' WWE fans. They're on an internet board. Aye, and it seems it's not for them either!
NorthSeaTiger Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Me and my brother were discussing possible ways for The Undertaker to do a Wrestlemania tribute to Paul Bearer. What if, Punk hits the GTS or a monster chairshot and is about to go for the cover, only for the lights to go out. A cry of "Ohhhhhh Yessssss" comes over the P.A system, and when the lights come on there is an urn sitting it the ring. Taker then sits up, hits the Tombstone and goes 21-0. Cue lots of crazy fans, a nice little tribute and he can leave after having done his bow/kneeling hand raise pose, with the urn in the middle of the ring. Classy and hints at the previous relationship of the 2 guys.
Moderators PowerButchi Posted March 11, 2013 Moderators Posted March 11, 2013 Not for me, thanks. Just a point at the sky will do fine.
NorthSeaTiger Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 You'll be upset if someone on the booking committee is on here and decides to do my idea then ?
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted March 11, 2013 Moderators Posted March 11, 2013 Yeah that sounds a bit crass, really.
MungoChutney Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I'd like to see the urn present at ringside at most but no need for anything more than that and a point to the sky as mentioned.
Paid Members FLips Posted March 11, 2013 Paid Members Posted March 11, 2013 I reckon Undertaker bringing an urn down with him would be a nice touch, but that's as far as I'd go with it.
Paid Members garynysmon Posted March 11, 2013 Paid Members Posted March 11, 2013 After he wins, just have a picture of Paul Bearer come up on the Titantron and 'Taker can do his salute.
Loki Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 They should have him appear as a hologram ala Marlon Brando in the recent Superman movie.
Paid Members Arch Stanton Posted March 11, 2013 Paid Members Posted March 11, 2013 Given that Paul Bearer's actually dead now, Undertaker turning up with an urn wouldn't seem to be in the best taste as far as tributes go. I agree with Butch, a little nod to the sky will be nice.
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted March 11, 2013 Paid Members Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) I don't think him brining an urn to the ring is bad taste Arch, i know what your saying but it was his gimmick and assume the masses will get the point. The urn in the corner of the ring and his salute at the end of the match is enough though. No mention of it on his way to the ring or during the match is needed. Edited March 11, 2013 by Kaz Hayashi

I agree with Butch, a little nod to the sky will be nice. Agreed. If UT doesn't like attending HOF ceremonies because of the connotations of his gimmick, I don't think bringing the urn with him would be a particularly tasteful tribute to Bearer. It's such an odd deal, though - the whole Undertaker gimmick was always going to be a bit odd in the context of real-life deaths, to be fair.
UK Kat Von D Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Paul Heyman to accompany Punk to the ring dressed as Paul Bearer... It's quite sad to think if WWE actually did it, I wouldn't be surprised
King Pitcos Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I reckon Punk's got a million ideas like that. Apparently he's always coming up with beyond-the-pale stuff that WWE turns down. He was surprised they agreed to let him do the Jerry Lawler heart attack stuff. Surely they'd tread carefully in this case though.
