Yeah, and Cena squashed him in 5 minutes a year and a half ago. Miz is in a completely different place right now, and Miz/Cena works well. My issue is that its been the same shit for 7 years. Hulk Hogan didn't even have this kind of run. I think the match will be your standard heel/face match with Cena "earning" The Rock's respect and a neat WrestleMania moment to close the show.

Wouldn't it be an awesome twist if Cena actually lost at Mania? But meh, I'm just living in dream town again.

It's not impossible depending on how serious they are about Miz or if it leads to a big swerve/turn/debut/event etc. Probably not though.

I don't think it's that out of the question, actually. The WWE obviously wants to build The Miz, and it's not like the loss would hurt Cena. Especially since The Rock is going to be involved in the match somehow. Now, while the WWE will probably have The Rock help out Cena in the end, passing on mutual respect to try and continue forcing face Cena down our throats (which is a good business move), it's also possible that The Rock will snap, hit Cena with a Rock Bottom and The Miz will capitalise, thus retaining the WWE Title.

Then you have Money in the Bank Winner, John Morrison, cash in right then and there, as Michael Cole whinges and bitches about exactly the same thing The Miz did to win the WWE Title. "Not this way!" would take on an entirely new relevance.

Reasons this could happen:

* The WWE is building up new stars, and crowning John Morrison the WWE Champion this way is pretty epic. Plus, Morrison and The Miz have plenty of history, and the irony of The Miz losing the WWE Title via MITB is delicious.

* Rock/Cena tension is going to get people interested in the product. No matter how many times The Rock says he is not wrestling again, people will want to see that dream match. Austin & Rock may have teamed up a couple of times, but people loved talking, no matter their age, about Rock vs. Austin. Cena & Rock could work, but Cena vs. Rock would just create more of a buzz.

* Morrison has been tearing it up since about Survivor Series. He's definitely stepped up his game, and was arguably the star performer of TLC, the Royal Rumble AND Elimination Chamber. Cena might sell the most merch now, and that is why he is getting the nod heading into WrestleMania (smart), but Morrison is certainly turning heads, proving himself to be a consistent commodity, and when he's out-shining guys like John Cena, Randy Orton and whoever else on PPVs, that makes a pretty strong argument to push the guy.

I get what you're trying to say, but Hogan at least co-main evented all but one of the first nine Manias. And an argument can be made that his tournament match against Andre at WMIV was the biggest pre-show draw of the show.
