No Interest

It's the WWE's Backlash pay-per-view tonight and I am not interested in it at all.

I have hardly watched any of the television shows in the weeks leading up to tonight so I don't know the full card.

I know the WWE title match is a four way bout featurning Edge, Randy Orton and Shawn Michaels against the champion, John Cena.

It's easy to know who is going to win that one.

Cena is the blue-eyed boy in Vince McMahon's opinion. He will not be jobbing out to any of the others in the immediate future.

Randy Orton's involvement will be the most interesting in this match. A few weeks ago he wrecked a hotel room up during the European tour and was sent home. Apparently he caused over thirty thousand dollars worth of damage and the company are looking at ways to punish him.

I am pretty sure he will be the wrestler who will have to be pinned in tonight's match as the initial form of punishment. They tend to downplay your character as a way of punishment which effectively hits them in the pocket as their drawing power is diminished.

Orton has been in too much trouble in his short career. He is a loose cannon ready to explode.

The other match that I know is taking place is The Undertaker defending his World championship against Batista in a last man standing match.

These two were the show-stealers at Wrestlemania XIII. Everyone doubted they would pull off an amazing match but they did. Whether lighning strikes twice on this one is the big question.

I wouldn't bet on it.
