Not sure why they have Cena Vs Booker T for Wrestlemania 22.

WWE have since said it was just a bad poster campaign for that show: http://www.wwe.com/classics/classic-lists/10-worst-ppv-posters/page-8

They did a number of posters, but none were good.

IIRC every poster that year, or at least half of that year, was done in a very "minimalistic" style with just an action shot, logo and one of the dudes' names in a simple font somewhere. It's not the worst idea for monthly pay-per-views but for a 'Mania it really doesn't age well.

I assumed it was supposed to be Undertaker rising out of a grave, symbolically or otherwise (it kind of looks like a round tombstone in the background) and I know they had done a number of Undertaker COMES BACK feuds in the early/mid 1990s. However the build up for WMXI was that IRS stole his urn in the name of The [Original Dibiase] Corporation and Undertaker had to fight King Kong Bundy with a baseball referee keeping it fair. The year before at the Royal Rumble was the whole "Undertaker is stuck in a casket and buried alive but then takes over the Titantron to say he's unkillable and rises to heaven. He missed Wrestlemania X, and considering they did long term WM to WM booking back then maybe Wrestlemania XI was meant to be his triumphant return but when he came back early to feud with Kamala or whatever, and they went with Lawrence Taylor/Bam Bam Bigelow as their main event, someone just went "ehhh, purple blobs are still pretty sweet."

I want to believe Vince did this all on his own. Like, he just disappeared for two hours and when he came back he had all this footage.

This may or may not be correct.

Also, Jeff is a manager, not a fighter. The New Shield is clearly going to be Doctor Tracksuit and Colon Dee Stroyer.

I feel like whoever is drawing that comic is drawing that badly in a effort to be fired or something. Someone can't legitimately be drawing that and is happy with the end product.

From what I understand, Papercutz pays their artists really badly. Like $20 per page or something in that ballpark.

I've looked the guy up on GIS and his stuff is still pretty bad when he puts forth the effort, but not nearly on WWE Superstars' level.
