I think they want another John Cena type who brings his lunch pail to work every night and brings in the crowds. Those types are tough to come by. You cant just create them out of thin air. If it was that easy, there would never be periods of transition. |

Really dont get that. In my opinion hes the worst of the Wyatts. Just dont see why you would want this guy facing Undertaker. Dude shouldnt even be on the card other than to be in the corner of Bray or Luke Harper and Eric Rowans matches.

The Undertaker vs. Braun Strowman sounds horrible in every conceivable way.
Really want Taker/Harper now that Noid has planted the idea in my head. |

If that is Taker's last match immma be pissed. I realize Cena's injury changed a lot but you can't find one other capable guy ? Hell Ambrose would be a better choice. "I know I'm gonna get my ass kicked cause it's Taker at Mania but man I'm gonna go down swinging" That is a lot better option than fn Braun Strowman

Been wanting Cena-Taker at WrestleMania for years. Wish it was for the streak, too. Now we have Taker in a match with no streak drama against Braun Strowman. Fun.

Should just do Bray-Taker II and save Strowman's likely first major loss for someone that could use the rub a lot better. Same for the other idea of Lesnar-Strowman since Lesnar doesn't really gain anything from that match and both guys stand to lose out more from a feud.
Storyline-wise, Taker already got the last laugh against the Wyatts from the Soul Eating feud so there is no reason why he'd want to start that up again and against the Wyatts beast. |

Literally no one else for Undertaker to face right now, unless they turn The Demon Kane to do that whole thing again.
I like the Lesnar vs. Wyatt singles match (even though Wyatt will just lose again), but maybe they will throw everything together for one bad match.... Lesnar, Undertaker, The Demon Kane, Big Show vs. The Wyatt Family |

I was thinking yesterday that Daniel Bryan returning to challenge The Undertaker could be absolutely awesome. That's only if he gets cleared though.

Really hate the idea of Strowman v. 'Taker. If it HAS to be one of the Wyatt boys, and if this is to be 'Taker's farewell match, why not Rowan or Harper? You know, someone who could actually USE the rub?
As it is, if they're going with Strowman, just have 'Taker win and postpone his retirement until WM 33 where hopefully you have a healthy Cena or other worthy opponent to go out against. |

So far, even Mania sounds blah.
Not even interested to watch "because its Mania". |

Owens gets a HUGE rub from it and it instantly sets up a post-WrestleMania story of the authority telling Bryan "I told you you weren't ready." and Bryan trying to prove he's still got it. |

I contest that Owens should win by being a dick to keep his heel cred in check.
Nothing wrong with a "clean" victory, but winning dirty against the darling that DB has become would make him even more loathed. It would also give Bryan more of a "comeback" story post-Mania. |

It should really be Kane vs Taker in a retirement casket match, but it won't be. So instead of that Finn Balor should face Taker.

Easier would be to just play off the past injury and have Owens target the neck and win clean. That said, if Bryan is 100%, why wouldn't you run with him? WWE invested all that time in building him up, I'm sure they would love to capitalize on it. |

I was playing with the idea in my mind of Owens beating Bryan, then Zayn stepping up to Owens, which triggers a moment in Daniel Bryan. He's in the ring with Owens and Zayn and then turns to Zayn and asks him why he thinks he can do something that Bryan himself couldn't do. DB then kicks the piss out of Zayn as Owens just slinks to the back.
The only reason I would turn Bryan heel is so they can have him in control of his matches and lay off the high octane stuff. |

I'd be fine with another babyface IC Title reign for Daniel Bryan though. You don't really need the IC and US Titles floating around, so I'd also be fine with Bryan unifying those.

Hopefully they come to their senses.
I know they like their big guys, but Taker isn't a point in his career where he can carry guys like Strowman to good matches. I can see the logic though. Taker is in this weird spot where I dont think anyone believes anyone outside of Cena (injured), Lesnar (feud is done) or Reigns (in the title picture) can beat him. So anyone they put him with will come across like Punk vs Taker, where nobody believed Punk had a shot. So the logic is they have somewhat protected Strowman, and maybe people will buy Taker a sympathetic figure at Mania. I just think the match will be death. I have no interest in another round of Taker vs Kane. None of their matches have even been amazing. At this point in both of their careers, I dont see the value. I guess Sting is still hurt, right? Taker-Sting would have worked here. I'm still hoping Cena can go. |

World Champion: Roman Reigns
Intercontinental Champion: Daniel Bryan Tag Team Champions: The New Day Women's Champion: Becky Lynch Doesn't it look right? |

Bryan as IC champ would be perfect at this point. You could keep him away from Reigns, and build to a match down the line. Maybe even title for title next year.

I'm not ready to rule out Cena for WrestleMania yet. He's John freaking Cena and hasn't missed a WrestleMania ever. If he returns for a match against Undertaker, I don't think I could bring myself to be surprised.

At this point, and given timeframes for returns, I think we might be getting Seth Rollins in the WrestleMania 33 main event. I think he'll return and beat Triple H at SummerSlam, and a 2017 Royal Rumble win would make sense. He's my real early three-pointer pick right now anyway. It's possible something happens and Reigns ends up against Lesnar in the main event or something.
But if Cesaro returns and is a barn-burner when he gets back, I could see him being an amazing challenger for Bryan and the IC Title at WrestleMania 33. |

Kofi is pretty great, but I'm fine with him and Big E being the best things in the Tag Team Division. I guess he would make a great opponent for Kalisto over the US Title though.

I could see a shift taking place after WrestleMania though. I could see Big E and Kofi losing the Tag Titles to The Usos, and then The New Day being moved onto something else -- possibly with Big E and Xavier Woods being the actual team moving forward, with Kofi getting focus as the singles star.

If it is going to be Triple H v Roman, I am rooting heavily for Triple H to retain.
