Good card, except I would change the Street Fight between Hardy and Hardy to a Number One Contenders Match.

Rey and Bourne would make good contenders for the tag title unification

Yeah. I would book Jeff to win though, and have Matt sent to RAW where he feuds with the I.C. Champion.

I think having a Number One Contender's match the same night as the Money In The Bank match would actually confuse some casual fans.
Casual Fan: "Whoa whoa whoa! The winner of this match is number one contender? I thought the winner of the ladder match earlier was the number one contender." Regular Fan: "Money In The Bank let's the winner cash in his chance at any time he wants during the next year." CF: "So when does the winner of this match get his title shot?" RF: "They haven't specified. Whenever they feel like giving it to him, I guess." CF: "...that's stupid."

i wonder what theyre going to do with the roof...im hoping they keep it open They more than likely won't keep it open. Why risk the weather if you don't have to? Not to mention it would feel like a half-assed version of last year's Wrestlemania. Its confirmed in the new WM 25 magazine that its going to be 100% closed. They said they wanted it as dark as possible because their introducing a new tron thing above the ring thats supposed to have like 2500 l.e.d. lights on it.

Even though the card so far is looking somewhat iffy, I trust WWE to put on the best show possible.
I hope it ends up like WrestleMania 22. Somewhat underwhelming card that turned in to a really fun show.

What confuses me is how they can't understand it. I mean the winner of the Number One Contender match will have a title shot mosty likely at the next PPV.
Whereas the winner of the Money In The Bank, can have a title shot whenever/wherever he wants
(It's kinda like the Hardcore 24/7 rule applies to the Money In The Bank winner)

I really like the fact that so far all the matches are interpromotional, and that they aren't billing it as a Raw vs. Smackdown event. It just really makes Wrestlemania seem like the show where the best superstars square off regardless of what brand they belong to.
I think we could end up with two more interpromotional matches (Winners Take All Tag Team match and Swagger defending against the winner of a battle royal) and two brand-exclusive matches (Jeff vs. Matt and possibly JBL vs. Rey).
Also, If Kofi were a "bigger superstar" right now, I'd say it'd be a given for him to win MITB and cash in on Edge after the Triple Threat match to get retribution for what happened at No Way Out. But alas, he isn't, so I doubt they'll go that route.

So I'm guessing the Jeff vs. Matt match is going to be a regular one. Should be good, but I'd love to see a stipulation like a street fight or something.

I really don't think Jericho will be wrestling. I think he's gonna come out after the Hall of Fame ceremony, MAYBE even crash it if that's not considered too disrespectful, and cut his usual anti-legend promo. Then all of the HOF inductees + Mickey Rourke + finally Stone Cold will beat the crap out of him.
I think these matches will be added:
Undisputed Tag Title Match: Colons vs. Miz N Morrison, with MNM finally ending the feud after the Bellas go heel for good and turn on the Colons
ECW Title Match: Swagger vs. Mysterio, with Jack winning and continuing the beatdown after the match, prompting Evan Bourne to make his return and save him.
IC Title Match: JBL vs. Kozlov, JBL wins and retires as champ.
That with the two World Title Matches, Taker-HBK, Hardy-Hardy, MITB, Battle Royale should fill up all the time.

I am quite suprised that they actually put 3 wrestlers from ECW in the MITB, since usually ECW has the lowest ammount of participation in those sorts of things.
I hope we get to see Bourne VS Swagger for the ECW Championship, or Dreamer VS Swagger, those are the only two guys on the ECW roster that would be likely to get a title shot, unless they have someone from SD or Raw get a title shot instead.

The undercard is definantely shaping up to be a lot more exciting to me then the top of the card. The Hardy feud is just awesomeness, Taker/Michaels will be awesome, I just can't seem to get excited for the Orton/Triple H, Triple Threat stuff. Hopefully it does turn out great since I'll be there.
Also I just saw that Ric Flair will be appearing at the Axxess session I'll be going to, so I'm pretty damn happy right now.
