I mean, imagine this WrestleMania card:
Super Big Draw
John Cena vs. The Rock
-John Cena wins the main event, and is then confronted by The Undertaker, setting up the huge main event for WrestleMania NYNJ.
WWE Championship: Who is The Best in the World?
Chris Jericho (c) vs. CM Punk
-This would be a tremendous match, with Jericho being smart enough to know how to make Punk look like an absolute star here. Jericho would probably be willing to tap away the WWE Title.
World Heavyweight Championship
Christian (c) vs. Sheamus
-Sheamus wins the World Heavyweight Title here, because as much as I like Christian, him winning does nothing for nobody. Sheamus has a big celebration after breaking the curse. After the match, Christian can be a crybaby in the ring and throw a temper tantrum or something, which brings out The Great Khali for a WrestleMania appearance. Khali gets some revenge for being taken out of the SmackDown! Elimination Chamber by giving Christian the Punjabi Plunge.
Special Guest Referee: Shawn Michaels
The Undertaker vs. Triple H
-The Undertaker wins and goes 20-0, with HBK forced to count down his best friend and former partner.
Celebrity Attraction
Big Show vs. Shaquille O'Neal
-I don't even know if I want to this to happen. Ideally, I'd have Big Show and Cody Rhodes develop issues, and have Show go after the Intercontinental Title at WrestleMania, which is the only title in the WWE he has never won. But yeah, they'll probably want to put Shaq over. This might be where they slip Mark Henry in, and he comes and restarts his problems with Show.
Awesome Wrestling Match
Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton
-This match would rock all kinds of awesome, and you know it. Orton is such a cold predator that he cares nothing about Daniel Bryan's tricks like hiding behind AJ, and he RKOs his way to a victory en route to becoming the World Heavyweight Champion again.
Divas Championship: A Divas Match That Actually Matters
Beth Phoenix (c) vs. Kharma
-Kharma wins the Divas Championship here after the two actually get time to tell a story.
Money in the Bank Ladder Match
Alberto Del Rio vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Jack Swagger vs. Kane vs. Kofi Kingston vs. The Miz vs. R-Truth vs. Santino Marella vs. Wade Barrett
-The WWE likes getting Santino on the WrestleMania card, and pretty much everyone's inclusion there makes sense. You have a few teases of everyone getting the belt, but in the end, Dolph knocks off Kofi to grab the briefcase.
That's an eight match card fitting on everyone who is really important to the WWE right now. Plus, you can give them time. You can break them up with segments featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin, Edge, Mike Tyson, Trish Stratus, Zack Ryder, Brodus Clay, William Regal, Drew McIntyre, etc. During the PPV, you could also air a return promo for Rey Mysterio, or something. Don't rush him back too early from injury, but promote him and remind everyone of why they love him.
