They should have done away with the spinner belt when Cena lost it to Edge at New Year's Revolution, I never was a fan of them keeping around what was Cena's own personal customized belt as the official design. It'd be like if in 1998 they made Austin's smoking skull belt the official design and had other superstars win it and carry around what is clearly Austin's personalized belt on their shoulder, only that'd be more acceptable because the smoking skull belt actually looked cool.
LMAO undertaker with the spinner belt is a weird horrifying and crazy visual the Undisputed title design was way better plus undertaker vs john cena would've been better at wrestlemania 23 than it was 11-years later at wrestlemania 34 best one-time WWE champion is JBL in my opinion jim cornette's shoot interviews are my favorites his kevin dunn impersonation when Kevin dunn told jim that nobody's going to know who Terry funk is when he debuted as chainsaw Charlie in 1997.
This match in 2007 would of been a classic. Undertaker was in his physical prime and Cena was coming into his own in ring wise. Just the drama alone would of made this match must-see. It's a shame this match happened when Undertaker was old a broken down and Cena was a part timer. Fans got robbed of a great money match.
@@mydogsnameislucy768 lol just no Taker vs Batista was by far the better match at wrestlemania (stole the show actually) and the Undertaker/Batista rivalry was far better than Cena/Michaels
Cena would have definitely gone over. The company was always thinking around this time about ending the streak and they were all in on Cena as well. The match happened 11 years later of course but as a match for the streak I would’ve loved to have seen it as WrestleMaina 29 or WrestleMaina 30 more appropriately. Cena vs Taker Barista vs Leasner Bryan vs Triple H opener Bryan vs Orton main event That’s what I think WrestleMaina 30 (as good as it was) should’ve been
Taker vs Cena at wrestlemania 23 would’ve been a classic undertaker was in his physical prime and Cena was getting started as the face of the company it would’ve been epic
I actually remember having Undertaker with the spinner belt in WWE 12, and I thought he looked cool with it (though it was a video game so who knows). If anything, a weirder visual would’ve been Undertaker with the ECW title lol. It was nice that they even pretended like that match was gonna happen considering how badly the title was being treated at the time. I always thought Taker vs Cena at mania in their primes was a missed opportunity. 2009-2012 would’ve been their best bet imo. Like that guy said, people would’ve hanging onto those near falls like their lives depended on it.
if you want to talk about Greatest one-time WWE World Champions, then you'd have to mention Superstar Billy Graham and Pedro Morales in that conversation (JBL is worth mentioning too).
Funny thing is I remember so many Kevin Nash shoot interviews, but can't remember one in ring promo besides the one he cut on Punk as a Waffle House cook, which took place when he was a washed up part timer. He truly was Big Lazy.
Just think about it like this 2007 Cena was like Superman almost seemed unbeatable his best title run by far vs The Undertaker undefeated at WrestleMania at the time it’s one of the biggest what ifs in the history of the company but definitely a classic.
2007 was such a good year for Cena. He had this all time classic with HBK and imo the best and most brutal last man standing match ever with Umaga!! The right call was made.
Nah i think the plan was for Triple H to get his win back at WM 23 but that got delayed till Night of champions 08 because of Triple H tearing his second quad
I’m a firm believer that the “fake” match they had at Wrestlemania 35 could’ve been a classic. Taker was in his best shape since 2007 and should’ve been able to have a great match. Vince fucked him over though and gave that marquee match 5 minutes.
I was there & enjoy both match-up that night especially before the Michael's vs Cena match a stupid clown fan got in the ring and Michael's tore his behind up it was a epic night...
Let's be real...Cena only put on good matches if he was in there with someone that was a better wrestler and athlete than him...Hell they made jokes about it..
Cena beating HHH and Michaels back to back at WM was my last straw lol. That’s when I stepped away from wrestling for a few years. I still watched Rumble, Mania, and SummerSlam, but weekly television wasn’t happening. Wasn’t about to live through a super cena era
In my opinion if Taker won they would of not turned it back to the Undisputed design the spinner was making them money from the toy belts and replicas to warent a swap of designs and secondly I think Taker would of had some fueds with Edge Orton and HBK on Raw if he doesn't get injure obviously
I’ve always believed that the reason we never got The Undertaker vs. John Cena at a WrestleMania when the streak was intact is because Vince McMahon would have wanted Cena to go over if it did.
I remember this and they had Lashley the WWECW champion as an option 😂 Taker appeared on Raw, SmackDown and WWECW and stared at all 3 champions. Taker fighting for the WWECW title 😂 Also a year later in 2008, WWE and Vince lost all interest in WWECW and had Chavo who was WWECW champion at the time in the Royal Rumble. So talk about a drastic fall for WWECW in just 12 months. From Lashley as champion and the WWECW title being booked on par with the WHC and WWE title, to 12 months later Vince not giving a shit about it. You can very much tell when Vince stopped giving a shit about WWECW, which was when the Benoit tragedy happened. Once that happened Vince couldn’t give a single fuck about WWECW anymore.
I am glad he din't because he will look so awfull with that spinner belt or they will have chaged the desing. I think if Taker choose Cena and beat him he will have stay on Smackdown with the WWE champion and Lashley will have face Batista for the World Heavyweight champion defeating him. Probably Lashley and Batista will have go to RAW and Cena will have go to Smackdown to continue is feud with Taker then Edge will have Cash like real life also having another feud with Cena but on Smackdown. Orton will have win the World Heavyweight champion from Lashley and injured him same for Batista.
Looking back I’m glad undertaker and cena didn’t happen that year it just would have made things even worse I know he was supposed to face hhh that year glad that didn’t happen either cena dodged two bullets.
Undertaker vs John Cena at WM23 with the undefeated streak and the WWE title on the line would have been a match for the ages from a drama point of view. The beloved veteran against super Cena would have made me extra nervous especially as Cena was always winning every match and getting the massive push not to mention getting shoved down everyone's throats, it would have been very interesting to see who would have gone over. Ultimately i can probably see Taker going over and adding Cena to the list of opponents but i can't see him holding that ugly spinner title. It would have been great but i am so glad that we got Undertaker vs Batista instead which turned out to be the best match of the show.
The Undertaker vs. Batista match was great though

Exactly, it should've been a customized title that ended when he lost it. It was used for cheap heat with a change, just have Cena hold it awhile

If they were to do John Cena Vs Undertaker; they could have done it around the early 2010s at one of the seams between 26-30

HBK vs. Cena WM23 match was a classic. The right call was made.
Same with Undertaker vs Batista. Both World Title matches were incredible that night.
Taker - Batista was a lot better
@@kevinlehr4705lol no it wasn’t. Cena - Michaels on raw > Cena - Michaels at Wrestlemania > Taker - Batista at Mania.

Cena vs Taker
Barista vs Leasner
Bryan vs Triple H opener
Bryan vs Orton main event
That’s what I think WrestleMaina 30 (as good as it was) should’ve been
100% agree. Nash’s shoot interviews are awesome
I could see taker spinning the belt as he is doing his kneeling pose
Imagine taker holding R2/RT for the belt to spin around 🤣🤣🤣
Taker vs Cena at wrestlemania 23 would’ve been a classic undertaker was in his physical prime and Cena was getting started as the face of the company it would’ve been epic
Johnny Gargano's father's restaurant burned down earlier this week. Spooky timing. I'm sure Kevin Nash is devestated.
Tell him the olive's survived and he'll get pissed lol
Came here to make this comment
The classic Taker could have had with Bobby Lashley for the ECW title 😂.

The ‘Deadman’ would not have been able to see John Cena. 👀
New Jack shoots were peak
if you want to talk about Greatest one-time WWE World Champions, then you'd have to mention Superstar Billy Graham and Pedro Morales in that conversation (JBL is worth mentioning too).

The dunn impression is from his interview about the Patriot. He's wearing a family guy shirt
Just think about it like this 2007 Cena was like Superman almost seemed unbeatable his best title run by far vs The Undertaker undefeated at WrestleMania at the time it’s one of the biggest what ifs in the history of the company but definitely a classic.
The Iron Sheik shoots I think should be up there.
Pedro morales held the wwe title for 1000 days plus it has to be much better then guereros run objectivly
I remember the Kevin Nash interview in Ohio. It was for Pro Wrestling Ohio
Eddie Almost killed himself with that blade job against JBL he cut one of his arteries
2007 was such a good year for Cena. He had this all time classic with HBK and imo the best and most brutal last man standing match ever with Umaga!! The right call was made.
good video

What if he had chosen Bobby Lashley for the ECW title. 😅😅
The match would’ve been better but undertaker with that title would’ve been terrible
Taker with the spinner belt 😂

Don't you mean Mania 34 cause Taker didn't appear at Mania 35
@@swychbladeseven769 Probably. The lack of numbers on the graphics make it hard to remember.
That was a funny interview from 2011 he was just eating pasta and answering questions with his mouth full lol
Thank god we got cena x hbk and taker x batista
I think 2007 was a great time to do Undertaker vs John Cena.
That would’ve been epic but then we wouldn’t have gotten the epic Batista match but man imagine the fan reaction for every pitfall
Undertaker would’ve beat Cena at WM23, and the next year Cena would’ve gotten his win back at WM24 and ended the streak
The undertaker vs john cena would be a epic match at WrestleMania 23.
I was there & enjoy both match-up that night especially before the Michael's vs Cena match a stupid clown fan got in the ring and Michael's tore his behind up it was a epic night...
it was a lame night and a lame mania. everybody knew Cena wont lose to HBK after the HHH debacle the year before.
I would have rather them face here than what we got at wrestlemaina when they were past their prime.
Jim Cornette podcast is hilarious. One of the best moments was when he read that TNA format 😅
the perfect timeing for taker vs cena was never really there.
Let's be real...Cena only put on good matches if he was in there with someone that was a better wrestler and athlete than him...Hell they made jokes about it..

Exactly I bet taker just wouldn’t actually carry the belt itself
That spinner belt imo over stayed it's welcome around 2008 I got tired of looking at it
The Undertaker with the spinner belt…Yeah not happening. And that was during the Cena era. Cena WAS NOT losing in 2007.

Alternative WWE Mainia Batista vs Shawn World title.
Cena vs Undertaker Wwe

I think the matches were the right decisions but should’ve been swapped on the card.

Cena (🤟) vs The Almighty(💪🏽) night one Main Event retirement match at Wrestle Mania sine Bobby is leaving.....🤔💭. (TNA Bobby)
Taker-Batista was a much better match than HBK-Cena. That WM, HBK wasn’t Mr. WM b/c he was stuck trying to carry Cena & try to make him look good.
My understanding is they originally wanted him to walkout with the ecw world heavyweight championship but taker said no.
Undertaker vs John Cena at WM23 with the undefeated streak and the WWE title on the line would have been a match for the ages from a drama point of view.

But he wasn’t super Cena during that time
That's why it would not have worked as well
Cena didn't need it to get over, he had a ton of amazing moments post 07.
