Re: WrestleMania XXVIII

Could this be one of the most stacked cards in the history of Wrestlemania?

It looks like we have four main events lined up with the two titles, Icon vs. Icon, and Taker shooting for 20-0 (possible last match?).

I think Trips takes on Taker (though I'd rather see Kane) and Punk takes on Y2J (makes sense since it appears Jericho is returning heel).

So, I bumped this to see what people think is going to happen with the world title. Too early to tell, but it's fun to speculate.

Both Bryan and Show are teasing heel turns, but it's possible neither are involved in the title match come Mania. I wouldn't mind Miz winning the Rumble and having Bryan-Miz come full circle (If Bryan holds on I think he'll need a good mic man to feud with). Or, since there are so many main events, a potential multi-man cluster**** to fit more guys in and have an undercard? Bryan, Henry, Show, Orton, Sheamus, Christian, Barrett are all main event.

Anyway, I was just wondering everyone's thoughts/predictions on the world title situation.

Re: WrestleMania XXVIII

Well if they're not doing Barrett/'Taker then I expect it to be Barrett/Bryan that comes full circle instead.

To comment on my previous predictions...A-Ri is nowhere to be found,CM Punk is champ (though JoMo is gone) and Orton may very well miss it. Possible for a Drew/Cody IC match too though I had that one as the main title.

Orton isn't going to miss it. Maybe initially it was thought so, but pretty sure he will still make the Rumble.

And just can't let McIntyre go can ya? Looks more like there will be something with Cody, Goldust, and Booker at this rate unless they wrap it up at the Rumble.

I'm really hoping that Show doesn't get stuck wrestling a "celebrity"; I think if they continue the slow build, a Show-Bryan match at WM would be quite interesting. I see Bryan being the heel in that match.

I'd also like to see Orton-Barrett in a blow-off match to their feud at WM. What I would like to see is WWE keep Orton off of TV until Elimination Chamber and then, similar to what HBK did to 'Taker a couple of years ago, have Orton return and cost Barrett his chance to win the match.

CM Punk vs. Jericho would make a lot of sense for the WWE Championship.

Re: WrestleMania XXVIII

We got robbed of a Bryan/Punk US title feud because of Punk's hip, it's only fair we get this battle of the "Best in the World" at WrestleMania. I'd really like to see Taker vs Jericho as well. Throw in some Lesnar interference too.

Re: WrestleMania XXVIII

If title unification is a true possibility, I want Punk/Bryan/Jericho at WrestleMania, but I think that would deserve a couple months of build-up. It looks Like Bryan/Show/Henry thing will last a little while, though.

Re: WrestleMania XXVIII

They aren't going to unify the titles. As much as I want them to end the brand split completely (not this Supershow joke), it's not going to happen and that would be the direction to go in if they unify the titles.
