Silverdome Promo of the Week: The Deadman Wants Revenge

Sorry for the delayed post.  Took a day to rest and play some games and lost track of time.  As you can see, this week marks a return of the Silverdome Promo of the Week.  It has been a while, but there has not been a week where a promo trumped a match in some while.  While the Six-Pack Challenge on Raw was good and Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton was good until the DQ finish, neither of them were worthy of winning the Silverdome Match of the Week.  The Silverdome Promo of the Week goes to the Undertaker’s Vengeance Video Package.

Two weeks ago, the Undertaker made his annual return to the WWE just in time to defend his Streak at WrestleMania.  Unlike many years before when challengers have sought to break the Undertaker’s Streak at WrestleMania, the roles have been reversed.  Before Triple H had a chance to fire John Laurinaitus, the Undertaker came out to the ring and challenged the COO of the WWE to a match at WrestleMania 28.  Triple H refused the Undertaker’s challenge, but cannot turn down the Deadman that easily.  Last week on Raw, in the middle of Triple H’s promo at the beginning of Raw, the arena lights went out and the Undertaker’s video package played on the Titantron.  The video package saw the Undertaker sitting in the middle of a room while clips from his match with Triple H at WrestleMania 27 played in the background.  The clips of Undertaker vs. Triple H from WrestleMania 27 shown in the background were those of Triple H dominating the Undertaker and the Phenom being carted off after winning the match.  While those clips were being shown, the Undertaker again challenged Triple H to a match at WrestleMania 28 saying that even though he won at WrestleMania 27, his victory means nothing because of how Triple H left the Undertaker after the match.  Undertaker swore that he being carted out of WrestleMania 27 will not be the image of him that will be remembered through the ages.  So if Triple H gives Undertaker a chance for vengeance, he will give the COO of the WWE another chance of ending his legendary WrestleMania winning streak.  The video package came to end as the Undertaker proclaimed, “It’s not over.”  When the Deadman speaks, everybody listens.  He has his sights set on facing Triple H at WrestleMania 28 and there will be nothing on this Earth that will stop him.  It will be interesting to see how this storyline develops in the next two months leading up to WrestleMania.

With excellent production values and great execution, the WWE has made this writer want to see Undertaker vs. Triple H III at WrestleMania.  Things should be exciting tonight as Shawn Michaels will be on Raw tonight.  Other than that there has not been much announced for Raw and Smackdown this week.  We will just have to see if the WWE delivers with the go-home shows for next Sunday’s Elimination Chamber PPV.
