^ Can I just mention that I love your sig?
Surely they have enough reason to get Punk in the main event. Rock/Cena is just bleh.
At least JACK SWAGGER is in the World Title match. Beyond stoked. Wasn't expecting that at all.

wow, jack swagger winning was not expected at all. Del Rio vs. Swagger just doesn't seem right. yet, ziggler vs. swagger sounds worst.

So after tonight, I see the lineup being...
The Rock vs. John Cena
Antonio Cesaro vs. The Miz
Alberto Del Rio vs. Jack Swagger and then Dolph Ziggler cashes in.
Undertaker vs. CM Punk
Looks like an ok card. Thoughts.

How would everyone script The Shield into Mania? It's obvious they're not done. Surely they need a match? Ryback doesn't look like he's done with them.

I really don't like it. All matches uninteresting, all outcomes predictable... just doesn't seem appealing at all to me  |

Swagger cant work the mic, i dont see the appeal. Hes decent in the ring but that isnt enough to be champ. I like that manager he has but swagger himself is awful, WM main event wow someone messed up with the booking big time. Rock vs Cena nothing we havent already seen. Finally on the Undertaker, his time is over hes got his 20-0 and has used the same formula in his matches for the last few years (lots of finishers lots of kick outs) id be glad if he just sailed into the sunset. Not impressed.

It'll be another team unit to stop the Sheild type thing. Ryback, Orton, and Sheamus most likely. Sheild won't go over this time.

I actually saw Swagger/Del Rio coming once he took on the whole xenophobic-type gimmick--especially with how much they're pushing Del Rio's ethnicity. The whole Jericho/Ziggler possibilty that existed kept everything really interesting and unpredictable for tonight, though. Loved that Chamber match. Still not sure where they're going with him. I'd say maybe Ziggler/Jericho at WrestleMania. Ziggler could cash in earlier in the night and then his match with Jericho could be made to be for the World Heavyweight Championship as well. Or, of course, he could just wait even longer.
As for Rock/Cena... yeah. I thought I was being overly critical last month after the Rumble and wanted to give it time to develop. Seeing how they were keeping Punk involved, the possibility for a Triple Threat was really cool, and would make the whole thing so much more interesting. Instead, we're left with the same thing we got last year, which wasn't even that good to begin with--not to mention we can all see Cena winning from well over a mile away.
I'd say we'll probably end up getting Trips/Lesnar and Punk/Undertaker now--aka everything everyone has been predicting for months.
This will be the first WrestleMania I've ever attended. Sadly, I can't even say I'm really that excited at this point.

Meh, just meh. I look at it this way. The past few Mania's WWE has had some incredible and exciting build up for the show, only to have it ultimately fall flat and not live up to expectations.
In my hopes is that the RTWM is underwhelming and the pressure to put on a tremendous show and succeeding pushes this Mania over the top (ala WrestleMania 22)
Honestly, outside of the main events, this roster is so cluttered and stories are so clunked together, I have no idea or desire to see what the rest of the show will look like.

Looks like they're going to have 2 patriotic storylines. American face in one of them, American heel in the other. Makes sense.

Yeah, Ryback will finally get his "big win" by pinning one of The Shield members. Meh. I can honestly say this is the first year where I have zero hype for Mania. My expectations are so low. |

The Rock (c) vs. John Cena Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Jack Swagger Brock Lesnar vs. Triple H CM Punk vs. The Undertaker Chris Jericho vs. Dolph Ziggler Randy Orton vs. Sheamus Kane vs. Daniel Bryan Exactly what I've been thinking for weeks. Well I only really thought Swagger after they brought in his borderline racist manager. |

Lets say we don't get a Triple Threat & we do get Twice In A Lifetime, What if Rock wins? WWE could have Cena pull it off the 3rd time ala Austin/Rock.
If Cena does win at WM then I wouldn't mind Lesnar vs Cena II with Lesnar winning the WWE Title, He can hold onto for awhile only to drop the Title to Punk.

We are know that John Cena vs. The Rock, Alberto Del Rio vs. Jack Swagger, and possibly Undertaker vs. CM Punk, Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar, and Daniel Bryan vs. Kane will be happening at WrestleMania 29.
But what about the undercard matches? Since there will probably be no MITB ladder match, there will be some multi-man tag team match as well as some Divas match not to mention a pre-show battle royal which will feature the WWE Superstars who are not on the card.
Your thoughts?
