Batista is the only guy currently who I feel from a booking point of view could beat Taker.

Possibly Kennedy, but it's too soon for the MITB shot.

And there's also a Kane match to be had at some point of course.

But because of the way that Taker has been booked over his career, it's hard to buy into some matches as you know there's no way the guy is going to beat him.
You do have a really good point there. From a storyline perspective the match makes total sense. It's just quality-wise that I think the WWE is pushing their luck.

I was going to suggest Mr. Kennedy for a shot, but not make it MITB. They could have just had him earn a title shot the old way, and have him tease in his promos that he could beat The Undertaker, like he's done in the past, become World Heavyweight Champion, and then use the MITB title shot against the WWE Champion or ECW World Champion.

But yeah, I guess we're getting the Last Man Standing Match. I just hope that they find a way to make it work.

An idea occured to me while watching SmackDown!. Mark Henry is apparently on the way back to SmackDown! (according to his return video). Am I the only one who can see him running in during this match, and putting both guys down for the count? Like it or not Vince has a hard-on for the guy; it'd also keep Batista looking strong by not losing to Taker for a second time.
