other than 3 matches WITHOUT REALLY THINKING can you name any other matches besides Mayweather vs Big show , Cena vs Orton vs Triple.. MITB. To top it off.. other than Hardy-Jericho, i cant remember who else is in the match.. i think this the most poor job ive EVER seen the WWE build up a WM or any big PPV
I dont know why, but Cena vs Triple H just doesnt seem fresh.. and just doesnt seem like a big deal anymore.
Mayweather vs Big Show.. im enjoying this the most out of all the hype for Mania.. but how much of a good match can a pro boxer and a 400 pound wrestler really have?
Forgot to mention Michaels vs Flair.. like somebody on here stated.. the match isnt fresh.. its been done before.. still going to be interesting.. but not fresh.
So am i the only one sitting back waiting for that one match that really makes me want to order the ppv?

There's also JBL Vs Finlay & Batista Vs Umaga, but I agree this is a very weak card, most of it's due to the MITB and lack of storytelling by the WWE.

It could be worse. The MITB match is looking amazing considering who is involved. Flair vs HBK is a historic match. Big Show vs Mayweather will probably be boring in terms of the match but it will be interesting to see what happens. Triple threat should be alright. Edge vs Taker should be awesome; Taker can still work and Edge is a great wrestler, and I always thought that if anyone would end Taker's streak, it would be Edge. I'm sure JBL vs Finlay will be a physical and violent match. Bunnymania will be ehh but at least we will have all the women to look at to keep us distracted. Hopefully Batista vs Umaga will be short, but it will definitely be better than Lesnar/Goldberg, and hopefully CM Punk will be added to the PPV.

The only people that have qualified for the MITB are Jericho, Hardy, Carlito, and Benjamin. You're halfway there.
EDIT: When the hell did MVP and Kennedy qualify? Have I been that lost?! O.o

O.o I think Kennedy qualified 2 or 3 weeks ago, and MVP qualified a couple days ago, unfortunately ruining a great potential match for Mania in MVP vs Matt Hardy.

Kennedy beat Val Venis 2 or 3 weeks ago.

Kennedy beat someone, I remember watching it on RAW, maybe Kenderick? possibly, i remember Kennedy/Kenderick.
I disagree. I'm into this 'Mania, more than any other Mania, since atleast Wrestlemania 20.
^^^ Ahh yes, Val Venis, the above person is correct, i remember that match also.

You can't please everyone all the time, sadly.
Orton, Cena, and Triple H, while maybe not the freshest match, is almost guaranteed to be a good match irregardless. Likewise with 'Taker, who seems to be getting better with age, and Edge. I could care less about Big Show and Mayweather, to be honest.
But I'm pleased with the undercard. The money in the bank is ALWAYS a fantastic showcase, and with Benjy back in it, it's going to be a can't-miss. Not to mention there are actually feuds leading into it, with Jericho and Jeff Hardy, and likely MVP and Matt Hardy.
Umaga vs. Batista is fresh, and while I don't like Batista much, Umaga is on a roll as well and I'm surprising myself by looking forward to this match. JBL and Finlay are both best in a hardcore environment, and they wisely made it a Belfast Brawl, which should be pretty damn entertaining. Playboy Bunnymania match I don't care for.
But really, I'm pretty pumped for this card. It's starting to feel like a big event again. Besides, did Wrestlemania 23 really have much going for it aside from Batista-Taker, HBK-Cena, and the MITB in the first place? And it turned out to be a good Wrestlemania anyway, if only for those three matches.

I just don't think it has that same 'Wrestlemania' Feel to it. Looks more like a good Summerslam Card IMO.

But each to their own. That's what opinions are for.

WHY THE HELL AREN'T KANE AND PUNK ON THE CARD YET??? I really hope they're on WM. I bet they'll be put in the MITB though.

TBH, I really wished we had MVP vs Hardy. I mean, why build it up all last year, and forget about it?

Then, hey, you know what? You can just...not order the damn thing. That's exactly what I plan on doing. I haven't ordered a WWE Pay-Per-View in months, mainly because they simply aren't worth ordering and this WrestleMania is no exception. I wouldn't shell out $50+ to see this card and I feel sorry for anyone who does. I'm taking the cheap way out and going over to my buddies house where he's got free-to-air and watch it for free.
