Best bets for Sunday's pay-per-views, along with the latest headlines and my reacts.
Sunday's WWE PPV:
World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk vs. Undertaker (Hell in a Cell match): Punk has had an impressive run as champion. But if a change is going to take place involving Undertaker as champion, the time is now. PICK: Undertaker.
WWE Champion John Cena vs. Randy Orton (Hell in a Cell match): Cena has a good thing going again. Orton actually doesn't need the belt to maintain his massive heel status. PICK: Cena.
D-Generation X vs. The Legacy (Hell in a Cell match): Odds are on DX's side, as The Legacy has gotten the best of them for the most part. I like odds. PICK: DX.
United States Champion Kofi Kingston vs. The Miz vs. Jack Swagger: The heels need some winners. Besides, Kofi has become boring. Swagger doesn't need the belt right now, though, meaning... PICK: The Miz.
Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho/Big Show vs. Batista/Rey Mysterio: Mysterio is just coming off a suspension. Sorry, Batista. PICK: Jericho/Big Show.
Intercontinental Champion John Morrison vs. Dolph Ziggler: Let's make it 3-3 for heels and faces. Push Ziggler while you can, WWE. PICK: Ziggler.
Divas Champion Mickie James vs. Alicia Fox: The smart money would be for the champion, as I don't think Alicia has enough credibility. However, she is fiery and extremely athletic. PICK: Alicia.
LATEST HEADLINES AND MY REACTS
Danny Bonaduce said he turned down Hulk Hogan's Australian Tour, while Paul London and Eugene were added. REACT: Good adds, and no major loss on Bonaduce. While Bonaduce is a decent wrestler and decent on the microphone, he has zero wrestling name value.
Brian Blair, of Hillsborough County, wants to build more bus shelters for its passengers. REACT: Great idea.
Tiffany has broken humerus, but ECW makes an angle out of it saying she was in a car crash. REACT: I hate angles like this.
Lauren Mayhew rumor of being pulled from ring announcing duties. REACT: Business as usual, according to the other Smackdown ring announcer Justin Roberts. She wasn't "pulled."
Gail Kim speculation. REACT: I've speculated since she started in WWE, because she's never been pushed like she thought she would.
Atlanta wants WrestleMania 27 in 2011. REACT: As a huge Atlanta mark, I'm voting against this (sorry), as I'd rather a Florida city gets the nod.
"The Boogeyman" still MIA. REACT: Hope he's OK. His gimmick ruled.
Bay News 9 in Tampa said Hulk Hogan is living in his Belleair mansion again. REACT: Hogan isn't leaving Florida, and that's cool.
Shaq vs. Big Show angle dead until next summer. REACT: Once NBA training camp started, we knew this would happen.
"The Beautiful People" doing more angles. REACT: I would think that would hurt TNA Wrestling's women's division.
Matt Hardy said he is tired of "being punished because of someone else's sins." REACT: Hardy is working the wrestling media, and some took the bait.
Vince McMahon compares CM Punk to The Warlord. REACT: I don't like that comparison, as Punk is better than that.
TNA Knockout Hamada's accusations about Yoshi Tatsu are an Internet lie. REACT: Big relief.
Jeff Hardy's next court date is Nov. 4. REACT: Being a Wednesday, it shouldn't hurt WWE.
WWE books non-smoking rooms in Boston. REACT: Vince McMahon doesn't like cigarette smoke, so that's how he rolls.
Booker T the most "selfish" wrestler in TNA Wrestling. REACT: Selfish doesn't usually work in wrestling.
Ice-T to be a future Raw guest host. REACT: God help us.
Ric Flair's ex-wife Tiffany upset Flair unretired. REACT: Join my club.
