I don't know where Eddie Guerrero will fit in, but I just can't see him in a WWE Title match. Maybe Tag Titles, or some kind of interpromotional thing. Jericho vs. Guerrero could be done with both guys allowed to appear on RAW & SmackDown! leading up to it.

Rock isn't even definate for Mania, so I dont think there is any chance he will be available to do something for No Way Out.
I would have liked to see Angle get the title back, but since he's still hurting, that doesn't seen like a viable option. With the amount of time they've put in JBL, I think its pointless to take the title off him before Mania (unless its a deal where he were to trade the title with someone).
Cena would be a good option to put the title on, but I also think they would be better off having him keep the US title for a while, a long while and go after the title in the summer of '05 or Mania 22. Plus, if RAW is going to have a babyface challenger winning the World Title, I'm not so sure they should have the exact same thing happen on th SD side.
Eddie is a good option to be champ because he's the only guy in the company who actually draws. Plus, with Mania being in LA, there will likely be an even heavier Hispanic audience then there are at your average WWE show, so it would be a good place to put the title back on him. If promoted right, I think a Guerrero title chase might actually move the buyrate a little.
If Eddie isn't in the title picture, I'd like to see them do Eddie vs Benoit in an interpromotional match.
Brock would be good too, but it would be bad for morale if he were to walk in and take the WWE title. I think it might be smarter to use him in a match either against a part time guy (Austin or Hogan) and then work him into the title picture down the road.
Of course the problem is that Vince seems really big on JBL. Survivor Series did better than expected, and JBL's match was the most promoted match on the show along with the RAW 8 man match. So Ive got a feeling JBL will be keeping the title beyond Mania. If thats the case, then maybe they should go to Hogan. Hogan desperately wants to get into Mania, and I'm sure they could get some milage out of Hogan going after the WWE title one more time at Wrestlemania. Of course JBL would retain, but this match would likely get the most publicity (depending on what, if anything Rock and/or Austin do). This would possible make JBL a bigger star, and make him a more viable champion for 2005. Then they can start to set the wheels in motion for Cena to dethrone JBL sometime in '05 or eraly '06.
