What we already know is that The Rock vs. John Cena will be the main event. But what do we think the rest of the card will be? A typical Wrestlemania has 8 to 10 matches. There is usually some type of gimmick match. So Wrestling fans, we could we expect to see.
- Rock and Cena is quarenteed
- Daniel Bryan has said he will use is Money in the Bank in Wrestlemania. Does that mean he will demand a match for the Smackdown champion, or will he just cash in against whoever the Smackdown champ is after their match.
- It's a given that the injury angle to Big Show and his surgery will keep him out until the beginning of the year. Should we expect to see Big Show versus the man who put him out - Mark Henry?
- Undertaker will be going for 20-0. All rumors lead us to believe that it will be against HHH
That leaves stars such as CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus, Christian and Alberto Del Rio as the top singles guys to try to put into matches.
I would expect to see Miz & R-Truth as still a tag-team come Wrestlemania. But with the way that the WWE has killed tag-team wrestling, who will be a formidable opponent. It's hard to imagine that Bourne/Kofi will still be champs come April, so who could be a possibility if this is the tag-team title match with Miz & R-Truth?
Will Rey Mysterio be back in time for Wrestlemania after his 2 knee surgeries? If so, it's logical that he would be matched up with Del-Rio since he is the one who supposedly injured Rey. Could we see an epic of Rey vs. Sin Cara?
Will Vickie's team of Swagger and Zigglar play out for another 7 months to have a match between them? I can't see this carrying out that long, but it's possible.
Other mid-card guys like Riley, Rhodes, Barrett and John Morrison will likely find roles.
I'm not sure there will be anyone new coming into WWE with the exception of Mick Foley. I've not heard anything about Chris Jericho in a long time, so could he be back. Austin is still teasing, but signs don't look good that he would wrestle again. Batista has lost close to 75 pounds since he last wrestled due to him move making, so its not likely to see him come back and shock the fans by being so small. Bobby Lashley has not grabbed the MMA like he had hoped, but I'm not sure he would be of much interest to anyone. There are no TNA stars worth bringing in whose contracts would be up.
We have to figure there will be a ladies championship. I'm thinking that a Beth Phoenix and Natalya break-up could result in a match between to big women. Maybe a three-way with Kelly Kelly in the mix.
There has always been some type of gimmick match like Snooki's last year, or a Jerry Lawler Michael Cole match. Maybe John Laurenitus in put into some type of match that allows CM Punk to get his hands on him in the end.
After I started thinking about this years Mania, the excitement of Rock/Cena left me pretty quickly when I realized there is not much left that could excite me.
I truly have not interest in seeing a 3rd Wrestlemania with HHH/Undertaker. Mark Henry could be a credible opponent of UT, but I have to believe the push will be for Henry and Big Show. But, if Big Show is not healthy, the WWE could continue the Monster angle they are doing with Mark and after he destroys all wrestlers in his way, in comes the Undertaker to put a stop to him. Could Mick Foley have one last match left in him and we see him and Undertaker attempt to relive their epic match of Hell in the Cell?
I'd like to see a Tables/Ladders/Chairs match. There are a lot of mid-card guys who could make a TLC match entertaining.
Is it time to merge the Intercontinental and US belts into one? Will there be an NWO faction of some kind (may not be called NWO).
What are your thoughts?

Here's what I would like to see:
1. 10 man championship scramble match to determine the first ever man to hold both the Intercontinental and United States Championships.
The build to the match is fairly simple. Triple H announces a few weeks before the show that there is only room for one more match on the WM 28 card, so the GM of Raw and the GM of Smackdown start arguing over which one of there championships get to be featured on the show. The United States title or the IC title. Triple H makes the suggestion that both of the titles could be featured, but in one match. So, the Raw GM picks five people from Raw to be in the match and the Smackdown GM picks five people from Smackdown and they make it a championship scramble match. This pretty much lumps in anyone that is not already below. My choice to come out on top and get a push would be R-Truth or Tyson Riley.
2. Big Show vs. Mark Henry
I'd rather see this as a title match, but there is no need for this revenge match.
3. Masked Kane vs. Masked Cody Rhodes
Would finally be a way to get that stupid mask off of Rhodes, and how cool would it be to see Kane back in the mask as the MONSTER!
4. Kelly Kelly vs. Beth Phoenix vs. Natalya - Diva's title
I can't possibly predict what the Divas Division will be like by WM. Let Phoenix carry the title until Kharma comes back
5. Del Rio vs. John Morrison vs. The Miz for the WWE Championship #1 Contender
Alberto Del Rio once again wins the Royal Rumble! And then at the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Title, the Miz wins and becomes new WWE Champion. And then CM Punk is suppose to be the third person in the Triple Threat match, but do to some circumstances he is unable to be in that match. So the WWE has a tounament where the winner takes the third spot in the match. John Morrison won the tourney. Del Rio once again becomes the #1 Contender
6. Rey Mysterio vs. Sin Cara
If Mysterio can be back in time, I think this match has the best chance of happening than anything else on this card. This could be a classic Luch match that could steal the show. It would also be the passing of the torch from Rey as his body can not continue much longer.
7. CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho - WWE Championship
Could be a classic. Best in the World vs. Best in the World.
8. Danial Bryan vs. Christian vs. Randy Orton for the World Heavyweight Championship
If this match were to happen it would probably be as great or greater than HHH vs. HBK vs. Benoit at WM XX.
9. Mick Foley vs. The Undertaker. Streak Hardcore Match
The Undertaker returns in February and said that he has beaten everybody. He is 19-0 at WM and has no other ârealâ challenger left to face. That is when Mick Foley returns and challenges Taker to a Hardcore match. Mick Foley says that the Undertaker has never beaten him at WM and this time the Taker will not get to 20-0. And these two have an amazing build with a ton of great promos and even a couple of physical altercations. Foley brings all of the former WM victims back to be in his corner at WM.
10. John Cena vs. The Rock
John Cena turns heel and makes a new Corporation faction with Triple H. They feud with CM Punkâs Cult Of Personality until January and then when Rock comes they feud with him. The Rock costs Cena the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE title (that is how Miz won).The Corporation brutally assaults Rock all the time, to the point where RAW GM Kevin Nash announces that if they donât quit then he will personally bring back Vince McMahon! And he bans the Corporation from ringside at Wrestlemania.

Don't we all wish we could be the "bookerman" as Brian Pillman would say.... 
11-28-2011, 03:52 PM
Now first off this is my second card I've made. looking back I didn't like a lot of my predictions so i wanted to make a final prediction for how i think the card will look come April 1st. I have really high hopes for this years wrestlemania, with so many returns and Cena and the Rock have been building up there match for an entire year who wouldn't? So here's how i think the card will play out... or, at least as of today 
Airboom vs Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger vs Zack Ryder & Rey Mysterio - TLC - WWE Tag Team Championship
this match is more of a filler, a good way to keep guys on the card and this would be a good opener to Wrestlemania. with Rey coming back and being a huge face, him and Ryder isn't very far fetched.
Beth Phoenix vs Natalya - WWE Divas Championship
these are the two best in the divas division and this could be a great match pending a Natalya or Beth face turn. this is the divas match that everyone wants to see, why not at Wrestlemania?
Big Show vs Christian
I could see a mini feud with these two leading into a match at mania, these attitude era stars could put on a decent match and this wouldn't be a bad match for mania.
Sheamus vs Mark Henry
these two could have unfinished business and after a great year from Henry he deserves a singles match on the grandest stage and this would all depend on whether or not Henry face turns or not. reports say he will but I don't see it happening so this match is a possibility.
R-Truth vs The Miz
Now that Truth is making a face turn and Awesome Truth has split this could be a really good match at mania. I would be genuinely excited for this match and this seems to have a strong possibility of happening.
Cody Rhodes vs Goldust - Intercontinental Championship
Reports say creative is considering granting Goldust's request and we could see these two brothers go head to head at mania. I am in favor of this happening and it would be good for Goldust to put over the up and coming Rhodes. Goldust is signed to a Legends deal, and WWE has yet to use him for anything!
Triple H vs Alberto Del Rio - Special Guest Referee Kevin Nash
these two could have unfinished business and with Nash the special ref everyone would be thinking he would screw over hunter but this would be the way to turn Nash face for merchandise and all that on his way out. i could see this perfectly and i think it would be a good way to put ADR on the card in a sensible way. Lord knows I want Nash GONE, and maybe this will finish his services for good.
Randy Orton vs Wade Barrett vs Daniel Bryan - World Heavyweight Championship
with Daniel Bryan keeping the case and a feud between Orton and Barrett heading into mania I could see this being the Smackdown Mainevent for mania in a heartbeat. this would be a good match to show off both Bryan and Barrett and give them both pushes.
Kane vs The Undertaker
whether or not Kane returns masked or not this could happen either way, but masked could be a stronger possibility of course. This would be a good 20-0 match for Taker and i think this could be a proper way to hold the last Taker vs Kane match and let them BOTH retire gracefully with a HUG at the end....
CM Punk vs Chris Jericho - WWE Championship
if the "it begins" promo is really Jericho then a rumble win for him would set up possibly the best wrestling match of all time against CM Punk. I think that this has a very strong possibility of happening.
The Rock vs John Cena
this feud will define two generations and will be the biggest Wrestlemania match of all time, over a year is a long build up for a match. I'm still stuck on how Cena will be used, but it sure feels like they will turn him. I think tonights Raw with Roddy Piper just might provide us the direction!
Airboom vs Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger vs Zack Ryder & Rey Mysterio - TLC - WWE Tag Team Championship
this match is more of a filler, a good way to keep guys on the card and this would be a good opener to Wrestlemania. with Rey coming back and being a huge face, him and Ryder isn't very far fetched.

So, how is this shaping up???
Airboom vs Dolph Ziggler & Jack Swagger vs Zack Ryder & Rey Mysterio - TLC - WWE Tag Team Championship
I guess this still could happen. Rey is scheduled to come back at Royal Rumble and him and Ryder teaming together makes sense. I think Ziggler is headed for a bigger part of the show, so its not likely that Dolph and Jack will be teaming in this match
Beth Phoenix vs Natalya - WWE Divas Championship
I think there is a very good chance that we could see a turn, likely from Beth. Kharma gets married in June and will have been a few months from having her baby. We could actually see her back in the summer, so setting up the Khama/Beth feud will happen by Summer Slam
Big Show vs Christian
Christian's injury may have changed the plans to look for other options. Thus, it appears that Shaq has already been signed for the battle of the Giants
Sheamus vs Mark Henry
They have given us this match already, but I could still see this as a WM match and one that propels Sheamas to a title match
R-Truth vs The Miz
This looks very likely
Cody Rhodes vs Goldust - Intercontinental Championship
Very good chance that this will happen, but we will likely see these two match up even sooner. This could well be some gimic match.
Triple H vs Alberto Del Rio - Special Guest Referee Kevin Nash
As long as ADR is healthy, this still might happen. I still do not believe HHH and Undertaker will happen
Randy Orton vs Wade Barrett vs Daniel Bryan - World Heavyweight Championship
With the push that WB is getting, he will defintely be in a title match. I like this still to happen
Kane vs The Undertaker
With the HATE that Kane is trying to push, I see UT coming to clean up his brother once and for all. Still the hug at the end, but we will now see Kane see his ways were wrong, and we will get a face turn from Kane as they hug and leave together
CM Punk vs Chris Jericho - WWE Championship
This will happen
The Rock vs John Cena
This is already scheduled to happen
01-22-2012, 04:47 AM
Evan Bourne got suspended again, he'll likely miss out on Wrestlemania.
