4 years of lackluster Mania main events

Is it just me, or has the past 4 years worth of Wrestlemania main events been sub par, mainly for 2 reasons:

Triple H

John Cena

Now I don’t question if either of them can work a good match, because they can, but the last time I actually felt excited going into Mania about the main event was at XX because of the belief that Benoit would win the big one, it was a great story to tell, since then the main events have looked like this:

Mania 21: HHH/Batista

It wasn’t a bad match, just not an outstanding one like this sort of match should be, Batista isn’t a high level player IMO, he’s decent enough, but you can only get so much out of him

Mania 22: HHH/Cena

Same as above, the crowd reactions were electric, but the match itself, meh, nothing about this really got me interested

Mania 23: Cena/Micheals

The fact that they had already worked against each other in an epic match already meant that it wasn’t original for me, and it was well known that HBK was filler for what would have been HHH/Cena 2.

Mania 24: Cena/HHH/Orton

Orton is the only thing in this match that makes me excited, as I really enjoy watching him work and really think he is the future, but he’s a bit part players in this tale of Mania main event star crossed lovers

--

Thing is the mania undercard this year looks really strong, with exception of the women’s match, I’m looking forward to pretty much every match, mainly to see how it’s approached rather than thinking it will be a good match.

Show/Mayweather:

Now this I’m interested in for a few reasons, mainly to see if Mayweather will play ball and do the match as planned, now there’s no way he’s jobbing, but it would be interesting to see if he bothers to sell, lets face it, Show could totally take advantage of this situation is Mayweather decides he wants to be tough.

Flair/HBK:

I don’t know, but some small part of me is screaming swerve and Flair goes over, I don’t know why, but it seems so obvious that Flair is going out at the grandest stage of them all, but something inside of me thinks it would be hilarious if he went over with a handful of tights, re-formed the horsemen as heels and went on for another year, seeing all the promo’s and tributes recently reminds me of how great the man is, and that 1 more year wouldn’t hurt that much

Umaga/Batista:

This one could be the sleeper hit of the night, really! Umaga when used right is amazing and Dave isn’t a slouch in the ring, plus they are going to have to out do themselves to look better than…..

Finlay/JBL:

This thing should be the stiffest thing on TV since Matt and Edge’s feud, seriously, I don’t want to see a single wrestling move, just 2 guys totally non selling punches to the face and it will be glorious, it’s the perfect match for both guys

MITB:

We all know that Shelton is going to fly, but with Jeff not being in it, there’s no clear winner, there’s cases for 4 guys to win this thing right now, I like the un-predictability of it

The battle royal should just be good fun as well.

Plus there’s Edge/Taker, personally I’m not feeling this one, I dunno, I just don’t see how this match can help either guy, I can see Taker going over, as there’s no was Edge should be the man to end the streak

--

The really depressing thing is, I’m more excited about seeing Angle/Joe at lockdown than the Wrestlemania main event, and I’ve seen Joe/Angle 3 times already! This 3 way in theory is a new match. What does that say about the WWE and the way they produce the main event players
