WOW...

This can easily change, but Dave Meltzer reports that WWE has been tossing around the idea of having Sheamus vs. The Undertaker at Wrestlemania 27 in a Title Unification Match. As noted earlier this week, WWE wants to have the top matches planned out by then. Another match being discussed is John Cena vs. The Miz. Regarding Money in the Bank at Wrestlemania, when MITB’s PPV buyrate came in low this year, it got them talking about whether or not to keep the match at Wrestlemania. Also as noted before, some stars are being discussed for heel and babyface turns. Some names being considered are Jack Swagger, MVP, Kofi Kingston and R-Truth. |

The way they've booked Sheamus lately he'd need a hell of a build up.
Cena vs. Miz would be good. Miz as the anti Cena was awesome and hopefully with another six months under his belt Miz would have improved in the ring. R- Truth turning heel could also be interesting and provide him with a new direction. We've already seen MVP as a heel and I have a feeling if he turned again he'd just rehash the same old shit. I don't think Kofi could get himself over as a heel and he's gaining popularity as a face. They shouldn't fuck that up. |

Back to the topic, agreed that Sheamus is going to need to be built back up because he's looked fairly useless since winning the title. Can't see a Swagger face turn/Kolfi heel turn working. Truth is going to need a new finisher before turning heel. That flying forearm thing is ridiculous enough already. |

I thought that, as a black man, R-Truth's finisher was an axe kick.

Why not Undertaker vs. Kane?
This could be a great match, especially with the 20-0 on the line. |

They'd be stupid to expect anybody to believe Kane is a threat to the streak atm.

May I ask why? WWE has to be stupid not to at least be considering this for Mania 27 or 28. That is likely the last real money maker they have left the Undertaker. And Cena is the only guy on the roster who has a believable chance at ending the streak.
You though the crowd was hot for HBK/Taker? Can you imagine the atmosphere for a Cena/Taker Mania match? |

I dunno, I don't really believe this at all. Taker/Sheamus sounds more like an awesome Summerslam grudge match.

Not that I disagree with anyone that Cena / Taker would be money, but I'm just wondering why Orton's name isn't being thrown out there too, at least as someone who could end the streak.

I'm kinda confused on how I would book the title scene this year. I love the idea of unifying the belts, but at the same time I want Orton's "Championship Chase" to end at Mania.
But if he's unifying the belts, they obviously have to put one of the Championships on him before Mania. |

Sheamus vs. Undertaker makes sense as a pretty big WrestleMania match. The two have never faced, and they'd no doubt build Sheamus up for it. I don't like the idea of it being a title unification match, though.
As for the turns, MVP and R-Truth I like. Truth is perpetually over, but going nowhere. As a heel with a serious attitude, we can focus on the guys ring skills, and not have to put up with his rapping crap. MVP would just be reinvigorated by a heel turn, in my opinion. Swagger as a face would be interesting, and I actually see it going over quite well. The only problem with it is that Swagger has been a super-dick heel lately. A "change of heart" really wouldn't get people behind him. Swagger as a face could make money, but more down the line when it feels natural, in my opinion. Kofi's work with Orton and even Ziggler, where he has shown darker edges to his personality, have led me to believe that the guy could be a phenomenal angry heel. I just don't think it's wise at this point, though. Kofi is a mid-card guy who is actually really fucking over. While that heat could translate over to the heel side if he does something purely evil, I think it would be the WWE fucking up a good thing right now. For Kofi's heel turn, I imagine him winning the World Title, or coming very close, in a face versus face match -- and then when he loses (either that title opportunity or when he loses the belt to another face), Kofi goes uber-nuts and wants to fuck shit up. |

A turn that I do think could work, is Christian. I don't think he's exactly a stale thing as a face, and his stuff with Del Rio should help him connect with audiences more; but he's not really the "fresh" face that Kofi is.

Why would they do Sheamus/Taker for the title? The streak match is always a huge draw, and I don't see any reason to use two big bullets (along with the title unification) in the same match.
Sheamus/Taker can book itself, so can the unification. Keep em separate. |

They also added the stipulation to make it Streak Vs. Career last time. So, they are simply adding another stipulation. This would be the biggest deal in Wrestlemania for a long time to come. This would change the very nature of how WWE runs. It would probably mean the end of Brand Extension (finally.) Why not make it the Undertaker who unifies the titles? Why not make it at the biggest night of the WWE year? Also it's against somebody who has a very unique look and who is getting over big time fella. The only problem that I see arising is what does this mean for the winner of the Royal Rumble? Does Taker win the Rumble, and then win at Elimination Chamber too? Does Sheamus really keep the title all the way until Wrestlemania? This would be a serious amount of long-term booking and I'm all in favor for it. |

I'd rather a star of "now" unify the titles (Orton, Cena) than Undertaker. I've said it before, have Orton and Jericho be in the unification match, with Jericho touting how he's going to unify the titles, only to come up short against the viper in a true "Wrestlemania Moment."

They should turn Taker heel and put him up against Kane. Have the fans finally be behind Kane for once during the feud and hint that Taker may actually and finally lose at Mania. Even bring back Gangrel and Big Gay Vis for the Ministry to make it interesting.

I think Wrestlemania 26 and Wrestlemania 25 should be evidence that Undertaker is still a star of "now."
If anything Undertaker is proving to get better with age. Sort of mixing in a MMA style since he's a pretty big fan of that sport. |

They really need a better opponent than Sheamus for Undertaker, especially as its just following two big matches with HBK. I would love it to be Cena/Taker aslong as Cena only gets close too winning, that'll make some great tv.
