WrestleMania XXIV Main Event

What should it be? In fact, feel free to discuss the entire card.

Personally, I don't think anything other than Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho should be considered. At the moment, they are probably the two hottest acts on RAW, as well as two of the best wrestlers (if not the two very best). They had a classic at WrestleMania XIX, and now five years later they clash again for the WWE Championship? It just seems great to me.

As for the World Heavyweight Championship match, I personally don't like Edge vs. The Undertaker, which is heavily rumoured. It grows on me, and I'll probably get OK with it when it happens, but I really think Edge vs. Mr. Kennedy is the way to go. Have Kennedy win the 2008 Royal Rumble, after doing a Ric Flair, and just surviving like crazy. He rides the momentum of the win into a face turn, while still staying the same cockhead character, and he jumps to SmackDown!. He and Edge basically do a "I ended your undefeated streak...I stole your briefcase...I'm taking your belt" thing. Kennedy beating Edge for his first World Title at WrestleMania would be a great start for his career as a full-time main eventer (and it will happen, people).

As for the ECW Championship match, I was thinking CM Punk vs. Mick Foley up until today. Mick Foley is great at putting young guys over, and Foley challenging for the ECW Title at WrestleMania is a great way to establish it at the event. Have Foley tell Punk that he's impressed, but he doesn't think Punk is there, because the ECW Title is considered lesser to the other two belts. Punk says that he will give Foley a chance to help him raise the prestige, by defending it against him. Give them ECW Rules, and watch another of Mick Foley's classics. Punk retains, and looks like a million bucks in the process.

The other option is to build up some kind of athletic contest between CM Punk, John Morrison & Shelton Benjamin. Elijah Burke, Tommy Dreamer, The Miz or even Charlie Haas could be added to the match to make it a Fatal Fourway. It would be a lot of fun, and uses current wrestlers.

So yeah, my three title matches would be:

* Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho for the WWE Championship
* Edge vs. Mr. Kennedy for the World Heavyweight Championship
* CM Punk vs. Mick Foley in an Extreme Rules Match for the ECW Championship
