HBK vs. HHH at Summerslam.
Now, I'm the biggest HBK fan, but I hope he knows what he's doing - he hasn't wrestled in ages, has a back injury that, whilst surgically repaired, is yet to face up to the wear and tear of ring work.
It's going to be a massive ratings draw but I'm not sure they made the right decision, and what's going to happen after? I'd hate to have a scenario where they kiss and make up at the end of the macth as a show of mutual respect. Urgh.
One more thing - is HHH even ready? He's been nowhere near as good as he was before he's injury, and he's hardly wrestled since his latest one.
This has been a dream match for me - I just hope that at Summerslam, it doesn't turn into a nightmare...

If the Raw borefest is anything to go by, this match will suck and blow at the same time.

Some good points there Er-No, and I'm extatic to see HBK, one of the best athletes in WWF history, fight again, but I don't think it will be THAT good. I wanna see HBK pull of a pinning Moonsault or Sweet Chin Music, but I don't think we will, or, at best, it will be poor versions of each. I'm not expecting much of it, and in that, I hope that it will be a watchable match, or I'll be disappointed, but not really surprised. I mean, I never expected HBK to wrestle again, but if he's gonna wrestle badly, then I'd rather him not come back. Then again, we don't know what he's capable of, and we will find out in three weeks time.
Did you know that they considered bringing HBK back for the Summerslam 98 Intercontinental Title Ladder Match between The Rock and Triple H, with HBK as the referee, but officials said that he wasn't in good enough condition. I hear he's quite a bit of an acehole backstage, especially when he was the World Champion, and because he WAS the champion, they couldn't fire him, or they'd lose lots of money. I also remember hearing once that he was scheduled for a Smackdown show, but they found him asleep with a baseball cap over his head, so they sent him home. Why they can't just wake him up, I don't know...
Anyway, back to the point, I think it will suck, and I predict The Game coming out with the win, and I say that with the hope that I'll jinx it and HBK will win...
LF.
