IYO: Order of the matches at WRESTLEMANIA XVI *FINAL MANIA CARD UPDATED*

I don't get this "but Edge won the Rumble" nonsense. How does that matter? Wrestling isn't real. Cena/Batista is the bigger match because they're the bigger stars/draws. It's really as simple as that. I think people who place such importance on who won the Rumble are marks for the gimmick, rather than realizing that it's just a gimmick to fuel one of the storylines every year. You can view things from the standpoint of kayfabe, but the reality is that there is a bigger picture.

Also, the Rumble winner has only closed the show once in the past 4 manias anyways.
