Was I the only one who didn't see Big Daddy V in the 12 on 12 match?

Well, that's why it isn't on the pay-per-view. You don't have to pay for it.
So, to answer your question: no, You're wrong.

Big Daddy V isn't in the match anymore, he was replaced by Matt Striker. Plus
Snitsky is missing from that list.

Hahahaha. You're drinking Dom P at Hooters. That's priceless.
Posted By: Andy Clark (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 01:03 AM
I don't think Dom Perignon and chicken wings have matching flavor profiles.
That's gross.

JO you are obviously new and didnt get the joke ;_;

Probably for the best, the Battle Royale would probably kill the flow of the
PPV.

i'd rather watch this than the 2 minute diva bullshit match.
Posted By: Danny P (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 02:37 AM
Exactly. I'd rather watch the Battle Royal than some Diva crap. Hopefully, the
crowd gives the ECW title match some love.

Great Kahli, bitches!!

This is cool as long as the actual title match stays on PPV. Kane or Dreamer for
the win!

Get rid of the shitty Diva garbage. Let the losers who like that pay to get
cinemax or subscribe to Victoria Secret category if they need to beat off to
girls in their underwear. Put the wrestling on the wrestling show..

Looks like my super-confident can't-fail "Matt Hardy will win"
prediction was wrong. Unless he's a surprise entrant.
I can only hope, because otherwise the best face hope is either Cody Rhodes or
Val Venis. Or maybe Stevie.

Bottle of Dom & some wings? How's that cheaper than ordering WM?
Dude, stay in & get some DiGiorno.

stop with all the hate...you all are just mad cuz you can't be in it
Posted By: theresa (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 07:08 AM
Well I for one am glad this match was cut from the PPV. This now extends the
time for the technical classic, Wrestlemania Moment, known as Mayweather v. Big
Show.

That's pretty sad. It made me sad when Joey announced it. Sad panda. :(

Kofi Kingston is the best wrestler on ECW.His Jamaican BuzzSaw is a force to
recon with. Dig it.

I'll be at Hooters to...at least the scenery will be nice if the ppv starts to
go south...
Posted By: gblock (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 09:33 AM
i'm just shocked they were able to find and even number of heels and faces.
anyone else notice Kendrick on the heel team?
Posted By: JMASCORPIO (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 09:38 AM
Not sure why people are surprised it's not on the main card. Wrestlemani always
used to have a lead in match on Heat, since Heat is now online this is
basically that match. Besides, everybody knows this is just a way to help get
talent a Wrestlemani bonus.
Posted By: Tom (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 09:41 AM
Go Kendrick go! :P
Oh well, it's gonna be Kane who will win and have a shitty 3min match with
Guerrero. They could just pass it all together

If it's not shown then how do we see the epic conclusions to the famous feuds
such as: Cody and Bob vs. The Rednecks, Deuce and Domino vs. Jesse and Festus,
Pulumbo vs. Noble, Burke and Kofi? I would pay for that card- but NOOOO.
Face the facts, WWE needs to kill the brand split, theres not even a smackdown
match other then Undertaker vs. Edge. Raw has four pure Raw matches. Its
obvious that none of these other performers wil ever be used, and to be honest
they stink.

natedogg, you're a trip....
You know what they should've done? Had the battle royal on ECW last night and
THEN at least set up the match for Sunday.
Booking 101 to make ECW worth watching again. Sheesh.
Posted By: Orlando (Guest) on March 26, 2008 at 11:47 AM
another bad idea from wwe. its been discussed how if ecw is to exist under the
wwe brand, you need to make it close to as important as smackdown and raw.
having the battle royal outside the ppv reinstates that the ecw title means
nothing. this battle royal wont be a steamboat/savage, but give it a chance.

this is retarded. 24? it's practically the royal rumble, except without the
excitement of anyone caring about it.

Dom P at Hooter's. That is the funniest shit I've ever heard. Honey, when you
grow old enough to go to a bar like that and they let you drink, they are not
going to serve you expensive champagne, ok? Now go back to your tinker toys
until dinner.
