I'm almost expecting The Undertaker and Randy Orton to swap shows in the upcoming draft. Every three years, the WWE seems to swap around focus of the World Titles, and we've been seeing the World Heavyweight Title close more and more PPVs recently, including WrestleMania.
That being said, I also think the WWE are going to give The Undertaker an epic (and boring) reign with the World Heavyweight Title, and we could see him go into WrestleMania XXV still in the same reign as he left WrestleMania XXIV with. Shawn Michaels is my pick to then win the Elimination Chamber, and challenge The Undertaker for the big gold belt. I'd rather they didn't have the title involved, but I think they will.
As for the WWE Championship match, I see CM Punk defeating Randy Orton at Summerslam to get his first run with the belt, and then losing it to one of SmackDown!'s top heels. The only one I can really see happening is Edge. Punk then wins the Royal Rumble, and challenges Edge at WrestleMania for the title he stole.
I guess, if the World Heavyweight Title does move to RAW, heel Batista could win it from The Undertaker, and John Cena could challenge. Just because I don't see the WWE not having Cena in a big WrestleMania match. I think Cena and Batista could end up opponents, either way.
Stone Cold Steve Austin is rumoured to be wrestling one last match, and while it would be perfect if it were against CM Punk, they obviously have plans to push Punk as a face. Mr. Kennedy seems like a good choice for Austin's last opponent, then, as Kennedy is apparently a protoge of Austin's.
With this possibily being Sting's last year in TNA, I can see the WWE offering him a ton of money to show up in the WWE, and work a few matches, and get inducted into the Hall of Fame. Sting performing at WrestleMania next year would not surprise me.
