All I need is for them to have 12-15 minutes

Do you honestly believe they will give them that amount of time?

I like the idea of having those two feud leading into Mania. Could provide a few good matches on Smackdown too.

To me it depends on if they will actually have MITB and the length of Taker's match. I don't see a lot of matches getting big time this year because of a lack of veteran star power and the fact that Trips and Taker still aren't back.

Fair point. If Taker's still not 100% by Mania then I don't expect him to have a long match. But as much as I'd love to see it, I just don't see Rey/Cody being given that kind of time.

It was reported Sunday that Rey Mysterio is working through an injury to his rotator cuff. He suffered the injury while working the SmackDown brand's most recent tour overseas. Doctors advised him not to fly due to an inner ear infection he was suffering from at the time but company officials asked him to work the tour anyway, assuring him that wouldn't have to work any matches. However, he was asked to wrestle while on tour, and complied, only to suffer an injury to his rotator cuff. There was much acrimony over the circumstances that led to the injury, to the point that creative had no ideas for him when his feud with Alberto Del Rio conclude.

Company officials tried make things up to Mysterio by allowing him to handpick his next opponent, which turned out to be "Dashing" Cody Rhodes. Current plans call for the storyline to continue through WrestleMania, with a likely encounter between the two.

Due to the injury, officials are limiting his in-ring work at television and pay-per-view events, as well as house shows. He's contained in tag matches when he does work non-televised events. Mysterio is said to be hopeful that he can avoid surgery through rehabilitation.

I'd be pretty angry if I was Rey. Glad they are trying to make it up to him though.

Well that explains why the Del Rio/Rey feud went to a great start to just being a baseless feud.

What does this even mean? "People were so angry that they turned stupid?"
