Road to WrestleMania Predictions
If WWE doesn’t have John Cena vs. Randy Orton for WrestleMania, they’re foolish. Last year, it was Pay-Per-View after Pay-Per-View with this match, but now Cena and Orton are both faces. It would come off as fresh, and Cena vs. Orton in Atlanta would be insane. Book it.

I think they should hold off on running Orton/Cena again. It's been done too many times, fairly recently.
Somebody in another thread mentioned that The Miz would be a good opponent for The Undertaker. I'm inclined to agree. |

I like this idea immensely, especially if Taker drops the streak to him.

I really doubt that would happen, but I think the build up and feud heading in would be tremendous.

Miz/Undertaker would be great. I also kinda wanna see HHH/Cena one more time with a heel Trips.

Orton/Cena is a always great and I could buy it again sure. Their last feud was filled with great matches, and Orton has gotten a lot better (which is a lot).
I think that Miz also could challenge Orton at Wrestlemania. I don't like the idea of Taker's streak ending and I don't think it will. Another choice could be Undertaker vs Sheamus at Wrestlemania. Or we may get Sheamus vs Triple H II at WM, which could be great. |

...I see Barrett being very high on the card...VERY high. If he headlined against Orton or something, I wouldn't be surprised.
PS: If HBK didn't end the streak, NO ONE will. U can bank on that. |

Meh Cena vs Orton again wouldn't really be that great atleast not until Orton has been established as a face for a much longer period of time. Taker vs Miz really does nothing for me either at this point I think Taker needs to stick to high end opponents because after HBK I don't think anyone would buy that someone like Miz or Sheamus could end the streak. I'd like to see Cena vs HHH with a heel HHH like Triple Naitch said that would definatly be cool. As for Taker I really wanna see him take on Jericho this year the match would be amazing.

Of course no one would buy The Miz as being able to end the streak, but that's the whole point. You can push The Miz to the next level just by having him in that feud. It'd be pretty simple to book, as the wheels have already accidentally been set in motion.
The Miz is sick of the constant disrespect he gets from his peers and the fans alike. He's beeen a multiple time tag champion, a multiple time US champion, and the Money in the Bank winner. The Miz decides that he's going to MAKE the WWE Universe respect him by going after the holy grail in today's landscape...The Undertaker's Wrestlemania streak. You want to add another level, have The Undertaker beat Kane for the World title and keep it until March, and have The Miz pre-announce (in a very ballsy move) that he's cashing in his Money in the Bank at Wrestlemania against the Undertaker. That way you have another Streak v. Streak concept as no one has ever lost cashing in Money in the Bank. The Miz goes out there and surprises a lot of people by going toe to toe with the Deadman, but ultimately he falls JUST short. He still gains respect in the process though. You could either have him be humbled and turn face from there or have him be a slighted heel, hell bent on getting the respect that he feels he deserves. Being the only Money in the Bank loser could be fuel for a brand new fire in The Miz. Book it. |

WWE doesn't like booking face on face matches anymore in fact I've seen more heel vs heel action as of late if anything it will be Miz vs Cena and maybe Orton will feud with Jericho and that would leave it open for Edge vs Triple H which I've wanted for years.

Actually, Cena will probably be champ again by then, so just substitute him into the proposed Undertaker storyline and it still pretty much works.

HHH vs. Taker (The build up could be awesome considering what both guys have done with their careers & Hunter's relationship with Shawn)
Orton vs. Barrett or Orton as a heel vs. Daniel Bryan Miz vs. Cena Mysterio vs. Kaval |

As long as John Cena vs. Randy Orton is the main event, all will be good. Two faces going at it ala Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker.

'Taker is about to retire (one would think) and we need to see 'Taker vs Cena...so...if they won't do the HHH vs Undertaker, we NEED to see him vs Cena.
PS: By the way...has Undertaker EVER wrestled John Cena? |

Since I'm not sure how much more Taker has in the tank, a match with Cena seems like a sensible move. Taker/Cena HAS to happen at some point, as Cena's pretty much the only person I could believably see ending it. I'm hoping for Cena to eliminate Taker in the Rumble or something to set it up. A match that big doesn't need the title on the line.
Gotta think Orton will be in the WWE Title Match, I could see him being the champ going in. Would be pretty awesome if Miz were to hold onto his MITB and seek to prove he's the best by announcing after Elimination Chamber that he's cashing in at WrestleMania. Speaking of MITB, I hope they bring it back for the sake of all the guys that will miss the card otherwise. But if they are running another MITB PPV it's unlikely. That leaves the SmackDown side. With Taker's feud with Kane probably over by then and him likely facing a big name from Raw...the SmackDown WM picture will be wide open. It may even be a Raw guy that wins the Rumble and winds up challenging the SD champ. Who knows. |

Plus Cena vs Undertaker will just turn into "who can no sell the others offense more," and do we really NEED to see that?.

Thing is though, with Wrestlemania being what it is, the 'E needs a legitimate money matchup at the top of the card. I love Miz just as much as the next guy, but Miz/Undertaker doesn't sell nearly as many PPVs as Cena/Taker does. The only way they put 'Taker lower on the card is if they plan on him retiring at 'Mania 28, where he goes out against Cena.
I'm going to guess that the Nexus angle comes to its conclusion at Mania actually. Have Barrett either win the Rumble with overwhelming Nexus help, or have him finally "Cash In" his title shot that he won from NXT. Have the champ (not Cena) put up the stip that its title versus the existence of the Nexus. Actually, the more I think about it, how sweet would it be to have a Barrett/Undertaker match at Mania? |

You wouldn't do Miz/Undertaker because it's not a money match, but you WOULD do Barrett/Undertaker? Come on, fella.

I think blowing off the Nexus in that match would give it enough cred. Considering that Nexus has been THE main focus on Raw over the past few months, the stable itself is at that point where its a main event type heel. More so than Miz is.
I do see what you're saying though. |

Call me a smark, but if it's Taker's last match I don't want to see it against The Miz. I'd rather see it be Taker vs. HHH... casket match... Trips wins with the sledgehammer... Taker does some magic shit after.... lots of pyro.... marks go crazy... game over.

It' d be AWESOME (pun intended) to see The Miz cash in the Money in the Bank and win one of the 2 World Titles at WrestleMania to end the show...it would REALLY push him, to have the visual of him celebrating to end the show and set up next night's RAW, but...geez, WWE would REALLY have to strech out him not cashing the MIB...causse we are like 7 months away from WM. If they're going to do it (I don't think they will), they're going to have to do it in a way that doesn't get boring, and doesn't let fans forget that he did win the MIB.

It's pretty sad to think that seven months seems like a long time for a storyline anymore.
I think it can still be done in today's landscape, though. If he just keeps carrying around that breifcase, it will be a constant reminder that he won Money in the Bank. After a while, if he just goes on about his business regularly, the case will become so engrained into his character that people won't even be sitting there waiting for him to cash in. When he finally DOES though, it'll seem like a big deal. That's what I think, anyway. I really wish Ken Kennedy would have stayed healthy after he won the case to see if they would have made good on his promise to cash it in at the next Wrestlemania. |
