Well, it might kill both of them. Honestly. Only if Angle finds a cage to moonsault off. As dangerous as it is for both of them to be working they may not need a cage.

I'm happy to see more opportunities for people without Cena in the mix.

With the current available talent, permitting they don't rush the debut of Finn Balor or force Daniel Bryan to return, the best they could realistically get now would be something like this;
WWE World Heavyweight Championship Triple H vs Roman Reigns
Brock Lesnar vs Kevin Owens
The Rock & Stone Cold Steve Austin Appearance
Undertaker vs Sheamus
WWE Tag Team Championship TLC Match New Day vs The Dudley Boyz vs The Usos vs Lucha Dragons
WWE Divas Championship Charlotte vs Paige vs Becky Lynch vs Sasha Banks
WWE Intercontinental Championship Dean Ambrose vs Chris Jericho
WWE United States Championship Neville vs Dolph Ziggler vs Tyler Breeze
The Wyatt Family vs Bullet Club (With Balor to debut the following night on Raw)
Pretty underwhelming considering there is no major Headline Attraction (e.g. Undertaker vs John Cena, Stone Cold vs Brock Lesnar, Triple H vs The Rock, Undertaker vs Sting), but could still be a pretty fun show with good action.

This sucks, but he will probably be back next month knowing how fast he heals.
Hope he has a speedy recovery.

Vince must be begging the Rock to do a match now or maybe putting in a call to Big Dave Batista.

This is absolutely crazy!
What horrible timing too...
AJ Styles needs to debut SOON (same for all the other three).

I wish him a speedy recovery, they really need him, now more than ever.

Awful news. Not his biggest fan but Wrestlemania without him seems unthinkable.
So many wrestlers injured. I just hope that now Cena is down, they will clear Daniel Bryan.

Easy. Send Styles and Nakamura straight to the main roster, and bring up Balor and Joe.
Then Wrestlemania gravy.

At this rate, they'd be just as well turning the first 2 hours of Wrestlemania into NXT Takeover: Dallas. At least then they'd have enough to fill 4 hours.

Welp, AJ needs to win the Rumble now I'd say; sucks cause that then means he's pretty much peaked at night #1 but what else is there to do.
Mania this year is looking mighty thin

The one...ONE bit of silver lining here is that it's happened pre-Rumble, before the Wrestlemania feuds start taking shape on air. Taker/Cena might have been the plan, but to the audience giving Taker a new opponent won't look as bad as it would if they had already announced it.
But man, pressure's on Creative to work this out. You've got to hotshot AJ now, and probably Nakamura too if they can. I'd also have Sami Zayn enter the Rumble and eliminate Kevin Owens. Zayn might not be the biggest name for KO to the mainstream audience right now, but it wouldn't be hard for them to quickly sell the audience on that match.
I dunno how I'd go about the card though. I guess something like this?:
AJ Styles v Brock Lesnar: WWE World Heavyweight Championship match
Roman Reigns w/Rock v Triple H w/Stephanie Mcmahon: Grudge match
The Undertaker v Daniel Bryan: Loser must retire match (If WWE's willing to clear Bryan for one last match, build up the danger of the Tombstone given Bryan's neck problems.)
Shinsuke Nakamura v Dean Ambrose: Intercontinental Championship
Kevin Owens v Sami Zayn
The Wyatt Family v League of Nations: Street Fight 8 man tag (heel v heel I know, but it could work)
Paige v Becky Lynch v Sasha Banks v Charlotte: 4-way for the Diva's Championship
NXT Showcase Match: Bayley v Asuka: NXT Women's Championship
New Day v Uso's v Lucha Dragons v Dudley Boyz: WWE Tag Team Championship
If they won't clear Daniel Bryan, maybe give the Undertaker spot to a debuting Nakamura and give him the rub (and go with Ambrose v Samoa Joe)? I wouldn't want to be in Creative right now though...
EDIT: Just realised I've got nothing for Jericho...

Just imagine if they literally thought screw it and went with AJ winning the Rumble, despite 75% of the casual fans still not knowing anything of him.

Look, this is a massive hit. No doubt. But as far as we are aware, there was no indication that Cena would be in the WWE World Championship match come Mania. Assumption is that he was going to be Undertaker's opponent. So why does everyone seem to think AJ will be shoehorned into a title match? High profile match, for sure. But the main event is going to be Reigns vs either Brock or Hunter. That won't change with Cena out.

This is great. I'm sorry, but wrestling gets so good when he's injured. No Ortn. No Cena. WWE ARE FORCED to push someone new.

I really don't understand how you guys think AJ, Nakamura and company are gonna be pushed like that. Maybe. Maaaaaybe. But come on people. Have you guys ever even watched WWE? It's rare as hell someone comes up without going through NXT and even rarer that they are "hot shotted" in a top feud. Knowing WWE they will all go directly to NXT and none will be on the Mania card.
