WrestleMania 23 Main Event Possibilities
 

So it's November and i think we can pretty much say we have no idea what Main Event will occur for WM23. Do you think we will see something such as Batista vs Cena or even Cena V. Orton? People have always wanted to see that happen but we have yet to see it....

I think we should definitely see something like that because one of the reasons the Attitude Era was so big its cause we saw ppl like Austin,Rock,Triple H, HBK and other huge names square off. Last yr it was Triple H and Cena but as much as I love triple h because he is my favorite, he's already had his fair share of WM main-events.

if its orton vs cena, they might as well shut the wwe down

that would be an awfull match that would consist of 675 punches, 345 clothelines, and a backdrop

Well how about Cena v. Batista...give Bastista the WHT and have a champions of champions match and have one undisputed champ

No.

you cant do face vs. face in the main event of mania, people would not buy it

SO no one bought WM6 or WM17 then?

good point,

i did not mean buy as in getting the ppv

i meant believe in it

thats only twice out of 22 manias

So no one bought into WM6 or WM17 then? (you are completely wrong btw, face v face works, and has always worked.)

btw, cena vs. batista would be awfull

Oh yeah, WM12 as well.

stay on topic

I'll do whatever I want.

i dont think Cena v. Batista would be awful...if not a WM main event we should definitely see it on PPV one day

You don't speak to Desty like that. Since I retired from giving a shit about Wrestling, Destor is resident god of this here section of the forums.

And he is right, Face vs. Face has given us some of the best main events of all time. Heel vs. Heel is the only one that can't really work...for obvious reasons.

ok, fine, have your cena vs. batista match

you'll get 657 punches, 234 clotheslines, and maybe a powerslam, enjoy

But it will make money.

Well "Test4Champ"....what do u suggest should be the mainevent

how about test vs. Djscorpion in a 'loser gets fucked in the ass match'

Its Orton so throw 67 rest holds in too. Obviously a 5 knucke shuffle and a Randy's Knock Out will make an appearance..

Cena would hit at least three shoulderblocks too...

...and then Monty Brown runs out and POUNCES him out of the ring!

Okay, seriously now...I would like to see some fresh faces brought into the Main Event. Even if they are not guys that are gonna be the new fronts of the company I think this upcoming Wrestlemania will be a good time to try something new.

Either Carlito or Johnny Nitro wins the Rumble and works there way to the main event over the next month to face a more established star at 'Mania.

Its risky because not everyone is gonna buy into Nitro or Carlito at that level but in the process and with the right program they could launch the next big thing...

noboby should buy into nitro,

he proves that just cause your a good athelete doesn't mean you can wrestle

It really is very sad, and says something about the state of the WWE's main event, when all the viable options for the upcoming WM23 main event suck ass.

Cena vs. Orton would be awful.

Cena vs. Batista might be even worse.


What the fuck else is there?

Sorry, why was Mania 6 not mentioned as face Vs face?

Sorry, I miss read that, thought it said 16 not 6

Edge VS Triple H

Batista VS Lashley (Unless he goes to ECW)

That's how I see it. Damn it's gonna suck.

I dunno, Edge/HHH could be quite good I think.

So that's HBK/Orton, now that could be awesome!

Edge and Triple H would be good... but I'm just fed up with Triple H... this will be his 6th Title Match/Main event in a row.

Maybe they could turn Shelton Benjamin face and have him win the Rumble... Shelton Benjamin VS Edge would be cool.

:rofl:

I think Smackdown! will have Batista v.s The Undertaker and Raw will have Cena v.s Orton. HBK v.s Cena would be great though.

Angle & Benoit managed to pull it off well.

Well duh! That's because it's Angle and Benoit. :)

There is a certain attractive quality heel vs. heel matches have, but they need to be done right. I wouldn't ever risk putting one in the main event of WrestleMania, though.

For some odd reason, I can see Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania. I'm not saying I'd be too interested in it, but the match would be good. Triple H is apparently playing the babyface for life, so I can see him challenging Shawn Michaels for the WWE Championship. I don't think this should be the headlining match, but knowing the WWE it will be, which also makes a Triple H win in the Royal Rumble so much more likely.

SmackDown! has a much harder time. Unfortunately, I can't see Batista not being in the main event. I wish it'd be King Booker defending the belt, though. The match that seems the most likely is Batista vs. John Cena. Maybe Cena will win the Royal Rumble, and jump to SmackDown!?

Hopefully WrestleMania doesn't completely suck.

I can't think of an example where heel vs heel would work. Each time a heel vs heel fued has started it has resulted in one simply becoming a face. The best example I can think of is probably HHH vs Angle in late 2000. They were both way over as heels but Angle got so much heat HHH slowly morphed into a face for a few months.

I think Edge should be in the Main Event as a heel and actually win. Its rare but I think its the only thing left to do to push him. After his past few years, a WM main event is the only step up and its time someone new wins. Cena winning again would mark 3 straight ME wins. Thats unprecidented, not even Austin or Hogan have done that. HHH is great to give the match credibility but hes been in the last 5 main events, and 6 of the last 7.

Looking at it now, I think its a shame they used the Edge Cena fued in the summer. If they had held it off completely it would have been a wiser choice to use for Wrestlemania.

I'm still sticking with Edge VS Shelton Benjamin.

Also, I think the reason Benoit and Angle managed to pull off a good heel VS heel rivalry is because they had that extra part of the story where they were forced into being a tag team too. Plus Benoit laughing at Angle getting the Stink Face before Unforgiven 2003 was awesome.
