Double post, nocare.
We're 1 week away from 'Mania. What are your guys' predictions?

I was about to start a prediction thing on here, but I see you got inb4.
Anywho.
John Cena vs. The Rock Who I want to win: John Cena Who will win: John Cena (hopefully a passing of the torch moment, would be nice to see a Cena heel turn but I am in no way under the impression that we will see one)
Triple H vs. The Undertaker Who I want to win: The Undertaker Who will win: The Undertaker (even though I want to see him retire if he can't maintain anything more than a match a year, WWE wouldn't end the streak without a Taker/Cena match)
CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho Who I want to win: CM Punk Who will win: CM Punk (he needs a singles WrestleMania win; he hasn't had any other than Money in the Bank wins)
Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus Who I want to win: Daniel Bryan Who will win: Sheamus (They are building him to be one of the top guys for the future and WWE probably want to end the Royal Rumble curse)
Randy Orton vs. Kane Who I want to win: Kane Who will win: Randy Orton (Consolation prize for missing out on the World Title match really, I don't see the poster boy losing to a man who is notorious for putting guys over)
Cody Rhodes vs. Big Show Who I want to win: Cody Rhodes Who will win: Big Show (this feud screams revenge, and WWE probably wants to give Big Show his WrestleMania moment, even though he is 2/2 from the past two WrestleManias...)
Team Theodore Long vs. Team John Laurinaitis Who I want to win: Team Johnny Who will win: Team Johnny (Surely WWE creative realises Johnny Ace is gold as a heel authority figure, and Teddy... well... we're sick of the tag team matches, playa)
Kelly Kelly & Maria 'Who The Fuck Is This Woman' Menounos vs. Beth Phoenix and Eve Torres Who I want to win: Beth Phoenix and Eve Torres Who will win: Kelly Kelly & Maria Menounos (Celebrity always wins, no brainer)

John Cena vs. The Rock - Passing of the torch.
Triple H vs. The Undertaker - I think HBK will end up getting involved and lay Triple H out with some Sweet Chin Music. Keeping 'Taker's streak going until next year.
CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho - I'm a bigger Punk fan than I am a Jericho fan, but I think Y2J is gonna become champ in this one. No complaints from me, as I think he'll have an awesome reign. Plus, more Jericho and Punk matches will be great.
Daniel Bryan vs. Sheamus - I see Bryan cheating his way out of this one to keep the belt. I know Sheamus is getting a mega push right now, but I'd like to see the Rumble winner not become champion this time. Let the feud go on after 'Mania, and let Sheamus become champ at the next PPV in a stipulation match.
Randy Orton vs. Kane - Just because.
Cody Rhodes vs. Big Show - Rhodes' title reign has lacked in defenses. Show could definitely bring more prestige to the IC title.
Team Theodore Long vs.Team John Laurinaitis - Teddy's GM run has really been nothing special. Random tag match after random tag match has become very stale. I see Ace taking Smackdown over making it much more exciting.
Kelly Kelly & Maria Menounos vs. Beth Phoenix and Eve Torres - Just because it's the celebrity match.

I'd just like to point out TC that Rock/Cena II wasn't announced, just The Rock's involvement. Also, Big Show doesn't have a losing streak, in fact he has won at the past two WrestleManias.

In that case, edited. I thought I read somewhere that they announced Cena/Rock II. Guess I was wrong. Also, not much of a Big Show fan. Hence why I don't recall him winning at 'Mania. I just remember him losing to the likes of Mayweather/that sumo wrestler/etc.

Admittedly, the other reason I wanna see Team Johnny win is Ziggler. It took me forever, but... wow, he has impressed me a lot. I just wish he'd ditch Vickie, his promo skills are through the roof (i.e. Ask The Heel and WWE Download) so he can garner his own heat.

John Cena vs The Rock John Cena for the simple reason that The Rock shouldn't win. He hasn't been around except for the last few weeks and at this point, he should be putting people over rather than winning.
The Undertaker vs Triple H Undertaker, no doubt about it.
CM Punk vs Chris Jericho I want to see this feud continue, I could see Punk winning and Jericho attacking him afterwards or I could see Jericho winning with underhanded tactics.
Sheamus vs Daniel Bryan I'm thinking Sheamus will pick up the win, or perhaps Bryan finds yet another way to walk away with the title and then Sheamus beats him in some sort of stipulation match at the next pay per view.
Team Long vs Team Ace I love Teddy but I don't see his team winning this one. In reality, Ace's team is far more superior and experienced with the 4 former World/WWE Champions, 5 if you count Ziggler's like 30 minute WHC reign.
Kane vs Randy Orton I don't really care at all about this match but I'd like to see Kane pick up the win.
Cody Rhodes vs Big Show I wanna see Cody retain the title but I have a feeling Show is going to defeat him since they are playing up the whole embarrassing moments at Mania for Show.
Random Divas Tag Match I'll be taking a shit.

I'd just like to say, y'know, if you have the means and the money... buy the pay per view. This WrestleMania is going to kickass, and to stream it if you could have bought it is a big fuck you to how far WWE has come since WrestleMania 27, in my opinion.
Of course, if you don't have the money or means, whatever, no issue but in my opinion, this is an amazing card compared to anything else WWE has put on over the past decade and I don't see why you wouldn't buy this.

I don't have the money to buy it. But even if I did, I still wouldn't spend money on something I can get for free. But I'm just an asshole like that.

Shitty laggy streams in 240p quality vs. HDTV that's reliable.
I'd certainly pay the extra, but only for WrestleMania. Other PPVs, just like WrestleMania, definitely have to demand my money for me to want to buy them, and WrestleMania demanded my money as soon as the big four matches were announced, plus a very strong undercard makes this an intense looking pay per view.

I would do that, but it's on at 7am here. So looks like Subway & Mountain Dew for breakfast on Monday while I watch it on my smaller TV (we have Foxtel on two seperate TVs and last thing I need is my parents knowing I "wasted" $35 on WrestleMania. So, I buy and record it on the smaller TV which is for myself and my brothers, since they watch the big ass TV and won't find out...)

Just been reading rumors and people are saying this could be the Big 4 next year at Mania
HBK vs HHH Rock vs Cena II Taker vs Lesnar Austin vs Punk
Now, I know it's all a rumor but I really don't want to see Rock vs Cena II or HBK vs HHH. If HBK is coming out of retirement, give us a match we haven't seen a million times and if Brock is coming back, then here's what I would do.
Main Event WWE Championship CM Punk(c) vs "Stone Cold" Steve Austin
The Rock vs Shawn Michaels
Brock Lesnar vs Triple H
The Undertaker vs John Cena
I think those would all be better match ups and haven't ever happened except for Undertaker vs Cena but when that happened it wasn't when Cena was a legitimate main eventer.
Rock and Michaels could go off the story of how Shawn Michaels held The Rock down in 1997/1998 because he knew he was a threat.
Brock and Hunter, I'm not sure what they story could be but I imagine it would be something great. Set it up like Brock is in the crowd watching Raw and Triple H has some kind of altercation with him or something.
Punk vs Austin basically writes itself and the promo's would be mind blowing, plus Austin is in great shape so there's no doubt in my mind that me match would be an instant classic.
Undertaker vs Cena is an easy one to sell as well. Cena wants to prove that he is the new "Big Dog" of the WWE by beating the one man he has never beaten at WrestleMania.

I'd make predictions, but honestly there is so many variables so I hate making predictions this far out. I don't like the sound of Rock/Cena II (this story has gone over two WrestleMania seasons... it's getting dull) and Shawn Michaels should stay retired, in my opinion, or he will damage his own reputation in the same way Flair has done.
