the whole first match ,gets you into the last match formula worked at RR for Lesnar and for bret hart at wmX. Go with it. it's all you got at this point, as charisma is right in that DB has to close the show

#1wwf guy said it best, you have painted yourself into this corner that it is the only option and will set up nicely where a Batista authority stooge replaces Orton after mania gets the title off Bryan and he can chase it all the way into a RR win and another mania title win at 31. just Repeat 1998 with DB playing the role of SCSA and HHH playing VKM
You can if you leave it to a fan vote.

"Which match do you want to see headline WrestleMania XXX?

A) Brock Lesnar vs. The Undertaker: The historic battle for the streak

B) Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H: Months in the making

C) Randy Orton vs. Batista: WWE World Heavyweight Championship

D) Bray Wyatt vs. John Cena: A battle for the era"

I'd actually personally leave Wyatt vs. Cena out of the voting, because I really want to see Wyatt win this match and if this closes, I think the show will end on a sour note. The Undertaker is set to defeat Brock Lesnar, Daniel Bryan will beat Triple H and the fans are going to have fun shitting on whoever is the WWE World Heavyweight Champion anyway.

At this point, the WWE should probably consider turning Randy Orton face. I mean, he's lost so much that he's almost an underdog in any situation he is in. Batista is so disdained at the moment that he really should just turn on the WWE Universe and rip into them about how he's rich and can bang all their girlfriends. Orton can remain in character, point out that the fans turned on him for Daniel Bryan, but they're going to be cheering when he beats Batista at WrestleMania, because while Batista had a hissy-fit and quit because he couldn't beat John Cena, Randy Orton beat Cena to become the Champion of Champions.

Why would they even have this open for voting? Isn't next year's WrestleMania supposed to be interactive? It could be a trial run for that concept. The Authority could openly acknowledge that Orton vs. Batista hasn't been capturing imaginations like they think it should, and while it would be unfair to strip Batista of his title shot since he earned it, they have reservations about it headlining WrestleMania.
