I think I may be right on with my WrestleMania XXVI predictions from the other day.
I say this because I predicted John Cena to be wrestling The Rock.
However, Cena reportedly was pulled from a match against Sheamus at the Royal Rumble because he is dealing with back and neck issues. The neck issues reportedly stem from his surgery to fuse a herniated disc in 2008.
If Cena is sidelined, and I do stress if, as no decision has been made on his health status, then my current predicted WrestleMania XXVI card can stand and he just won't wrestle The Rock.
A big match loss, but it doesn't hurt the card as much as it's a special match.
LATEST HEADLINES AND MY REACTS
WWE
Hall of Fame tickets have to be repurchased after a computer mess-up. REACT: I'm glad I wasn't one of the first-day buyers.
Tyler Reks reportedly escorted off a plane Wednesday in Green Bay, Wisc., for freaking out and becoming obnoxious. REACT: I had just heard great things about Reks the other day from an associate, so this surprises me.
Bret Hart's 2002 stroke to reportedly be big part of story line. REACT: Let's hope his concussion is not brought into the story line.
WWE returning March 12 to the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colo., for the first time since The Denver Debacle. REACT: While I enjoyed my daily blogs on "The Denver Debacle," I hope WWE and the Pepsi Center are incident-free this time around.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWp8OXzNYmo REACT: Kelly Kelly, auditioning here to be a news anchor, should stick with WWE.
The Rock reveals he had stunt men do most of the skating in his recent movie. REACT: That's funny, but understandable seeing how he only had two weeks to learn.
Vader, 54, and his son Jesse White to team in Japan. REACT: That's very cool. It's good to hear Vader (325 pounds) has overcome painkillers and alcoholism.
TNA Wrestling
Eric Bischoff on Vince McMahon, to Alex Marvez, says, "But at the end of the day, I think I'm better than him. I'm more creative than him and have a better feel for the business. It just that he happens to be a lot more successful than I am." REACT: It's all about money and being on a live show. One of those can change. The other can not.
Bischoff said this about WWE. "Think of WWE as a giant aircraft carrier and TNA as an 18-foot speedboat/ There's a lot the aircraft carrier can do, but it's also big and slow. We can bring a more flexible, aggressive and nimble approach. There is an open-mindedness and risk-taking mentality that exists here. That's one thing I really like about this company." REACT: I love the carrier/speedboat comparison. He is right on with this quote.
Scott Hall pushing to bring in "Psycho" Sid Vicious. REACT: Make it happen!
TNA Wrestling counting on Sean Waltman to take the majority of bumps for Kevin Nash and Scott Hall. REACT: Let's hope Waltman can stay out of trouble.
Next live show rumored to be March 1 or March 8. REACT: It's too bad there's such a lengthy delay, but this doesn't surprise me. We'll see if the recent meeting with president Dixie Carter, Hulk Hogan and Spike TV president Kevin Kay speed this date up, or give us live Monday shows every week sooner.

Jeff Hardy trial March 17. REACT: This is a very interesting case, as the charges keep piling up.
