Vince won the '99 Rumble and wasn't in the main event.

Well I went with the Benoit match, but I'm assuming Benoit's winning the title. If he's not then FK that for the main event. The other match I would go with if Benoit doesn't win the title is Eddie/Angle. That's going to be one for the ages. You can't go Goldberg/Lesner because you can't end Mania with a Heel winning. And Taker/Kane won't be that great of a match, so you can't end it with that.

I'm going with Angle vs. Eddie

I don't see what's so great about the Triple Threat match anymore, especially if two of the competetors are injury prone, and the possibility of it being a ladder match. The main event of Wrestlemania should be a one on one match, and for one of the titles. Heyman makes a good point about Lesnar vs. Goldberg w/ Austin as ref, but I don't see what it will accomplish as the main event. Sure Lesnar goes over Goldberg, but what does he have to celebrate, a beer with Austin? That can be worked into the show earlier.

A lot of people are saying that Chris Benoit deserves to be the main event winner, but what about Eddie? Eddie Guerrero is just as good a worker as Benoit, but he has more charisma. Assuming that Eddie retains the WWE title, he'll draw a huge pop. I don't even think Undertaker will draw as big.

So in your view, WM's should ALWAYS be predictable with the babyface winning in the main-event?

WM-17 was arguably the greatest Wrestlemania of all-time (or atleast one of them). STone Cold Steve Austin turned heel during the main-event and defeated The Rock.

p.s. If it's of any solace, most fans will probably cheer Lesnar over Goldberg anyways.

I don't know though. Would you be willing to take the risk of the fans cheering Lesnar over Goldberg. If they are widely behind Goldberg and Goldberg loses to close out the show, that would be bad IMO. But the again, I keep forgetting the show in in my home state, so you may be right about them cheering for Lesnar. But how many New Yorkers are actually going to the show compared to everyone else?
