3) Канэ уже задолбал... кстати, мне кажется, что если все таки афишируют, кто пришил Тейкера, это будет либо Кейн, либо Майклз (в последнем случае вернут в ВВЕ вместе с мертвяком и поставят матч на РМ)...
нахера шону 3 раз подряд просирать на Мании одному и тому же человеку?) Такер на следующей Мании пусть отправит в мир лучших Трипла(19-0) , а еще через годик пусть Ортон огреет пилюлю от Гроба(20-0) и в конце стрик должен побить или Кейе(да!да!да!) ил кто-то с молодых типо АмДрага . но скорее всего будет школотливый вариант завершения стрика(Мистерио ор Сина)
Человек 18 лет не проигрывала и тут он проигрывает,и у него полоса неудач.он расстраиваеться и уходит.и это человек чей гиммик кого не победить на Мании.Бред
