You know, I'm not positive that Taker is retiring at this Mania. But even if he was, I'm just not for this idea. Obviously, I don't see it happening, but I don't really want to. I prefer the Rumble leads to someone winning and going on for a World Title. If they feel they need to put the WWE title on the line with Cena vs. Rock, which I don't think is necessary, then all that does is lead to a triple threat between Daniel Bryan (considering WWE let's him keep his cash in on Mania, I'm not sure that they will though), probably Orton, and the winner of the Rumble.
Considering he was, Kane vs. Taker is a good idea, but I'm not too keen on the idea of a threepeat. I'm still banking on Jericho returning and facing Taker at Mania, since it's a fresh match, Jericho is credible enough, and Taker has never beaten Jericho (beat Show in the triple threat), I think Jericho is the most logical choice for an opponent (although Kane is better if it will be Taker's last match). I, unfortunately, don't see Taker losing the streak, so if Taker continues for a few more years (I can see Taker working through the pain to get to Mania XXX [he only has to work three matches], I think JR even said on his blog that would be the night where he says Taker retires, barring any more serious injuries... it was something like that). Anyways, with Kane being beaten two previous times by Taker, I'm not sure who they can convince that Kane has a chance to end the streak, yeah they can just forget those matches but with Kane/Taker, I don't see that happening. That match would be built upon the history of Kane and Taker, and that's a part I don't seem them ignoring. So, that's better saved for when they know Taker is done, and I'm not sure that's now.
As for Jericho, someone mentioned the "I've done everything else in this business" angle, and I think that describes Jericho perfectly. I could see him come out to the Rumble, eliminate a handful of guys, then eliminates himself, leaving four or so guys left in the ring, and then explain his reasoning, and how he may have never won the Rumble, but he did this and this, and eventually tie into taking Taker's streak. Jericho would do that promo much better. That hinges on if Jericho would sign on to do it, of course. I've ranted long enough...

I'd love to see that! But he mentioned HBK & that will never happen.

Hate it and I still don't think Rock/Cena will be the title.

Masked Kane? Why? For what reason? C.M Punk would technically be the FIRST undisputed champ of this new era, so Jericho doesn't fit. Why would Edge come back to wrestle WITH Christian after he just bitched him out on the PPV, granted it's months away, but Christian is huge as a heel, why turn him face, just for a lackluster tag match at Mania. Thank god WF doesn't write for WWE. Anyway, I still stand by, don't dilute the purpose of the Rumble and tailor it to be a fight to fight ONE man, when the championships are the richest prize in the business, not a streak that means nothing outside of WWE. Masked Kane would be fun to see at this point, he's been worthless for a long time, what else would they do to try and top HBK/HHH, Kevin Nash? Come on guy... Like I said "Or something..." regarding Del Rio/Jericho the feud could be over anything, hell Edge and Booker fought over a shampoo commercial. I think the two could have a pretty good match since they've both worked the Mexico style before. I'll give you Edge/Chrisitan though, I was just trying to find something for Christian to do maybe he can just feud with Cody, plenty of time to turn him back to a face. I don't think he's huge as a heel by any means right now though. Smackdown is desperately lacking heels and he is a good heel that still gets cheers. In fact there's really no heel that is over huge beside Mark Henry right now. They are either tweeners or getting some face pops.

Dont like it. Rock-Cena doesnt need the WWE title and shouldnt be for the WWE Title. That match is no different then Taker-HBK (Both), Austin-Rock, Rock-Hogan etc...It should be a special attraction match and NOT a title match.

I hate that idea, But here's my WM28 card:
The Rock vs John Cena WWE Championship Match - I think this should and will be for the Title because it will truly make this match the biggest of all time and i actually see one more run from the Great One.
Stone Cold vs CM Punk - With WWE planning something big for Austin and bringing in a lot of star power for WM28 i see this big dream match happening since Austin has been saying if he were to wrestle one more match Punk would be the right way to go, Punk has been saying he wants this match and imagine how Punk will feel going up against his idol.
Undertaker vs HHH III - With HHH saying he'll be waiting for Taker to return i see this happening for the final time with HHH's career on the line, Right now hes the COO (Kayfabe) because hes done it all but hes waiting for Taker to return, I think this match could top last years match if WWE gives this a better build up.
The Miz vs John Morrison - I just see this happening to see how these two guys perform at WM and it would be former partners going against each other, I would give JoMo the win to really elevate his career and this would be his 1st big win over Miz.
Rey Mysterio vs Sin Cara vs Hunico vs Alberto Del Rio - WWE's 4 Mexican stars going at it at WM, I see Cara/Rey announcing a match against each other at WM but Del Rio getting involved claiming hes WWE's top Mexican, Hunico also tries to take out Sin Cara claiming he wants to face Rey then its officially made a Fatal 4 Way.
Chris Jericho vs Barrett vs Bryan WHC Title Match MITB Winner vs RR Winner vs WHC - Have Barrett win the Rumble, Jericho return on the SD brand and win the WHC at Elimination Chamber and Bryan cashing in his MITB making it a 3 Way.
Christian vs Orton with Edge as the ref- Now i really want an Edge/Christian match but that ain't happening so have Edge referee Christian's match or make a run in to help or cost his friend the match, I would have replaced Jericho with Orton but Jericho/Christian have faced at WM before so this would be the official end to this rivalry.
Diva Match
Big Show vs Shaq- Shaq has retired from BasketBall so give us this match.
WM Battle Royal- Winner Sheamus- Just a match to get a lot of mid carders on WM.

You've posted this card probably 20 times since Wrestlemania this year, and each time it makes me cringe more and more, it's horrible, please make it stop.
