So will the Women main event and close the show so Steph can have Her revolution.

I imagine if Cena and Taker does happen that will close the show.

Demon Balor V Taker anyone? With The Demon going over of course!

I really hope we don’t see taker at all. His match last year was dismal.

Yeah he's done enough for the business of pro wrestling.

Is Lesnar's contract up after this WM?

Dana is talking about him returning for another fight.

Contract up in August. He will either leave completely and go back to UFC for a fight against Jones or sign new contract and then take time off for a big money fight in UFC similar to what he did for ufc 200.

I honestly hope he goes. Suplex city is done. Time for a full time champ.

I think they missed a trick by not having him face Balor at Royal Rumble, or at some stage over the last 6 months. It looked like they might go down that route, and it would have been a nice change of pace. The mini-feud with AJ Styles aside, he's faced Braun, Kane, Joe and Goldberg in the last year, with Roman next up. Change it up a little bit.

Completely agree. Brock makes for the perfect David versus Goliath match up. Have him under estimate Finn and almost get caught out would have been perfect storytelling.

Then again Kane did need a push in 2018.

I really hope Reigns isn't in the main event again. Why not do something that the fans actually want to see?

Bit of an odd position for wwe as if they do Cena vs Taker or whatever taker match as the main event and 95% likely it will end with an emotional walk out by taker like last year

Could end the ppv with reigns holding the title high to a sea of boos

Styles vs Nak is prob not a closer in the eyes of Vince McMahon but would be awesome

I have a weird feeling the last match on the mania card will be the Ronda Rousey match

Considering it would likely involve Stephanie main eventing, I'd take Reigns over that every day of the week

I want to see it. I'll be very disappointed if they change plans again.

Would be interesting but would deff mean moving to the main card

The house shows in may (dublin etc) are advertising Reigns vs Miz for IC title...

Hardly with the mania rumours?..

apparently Undertaker is back training

there is a good chance there not doing Cena vs Taker and it will be Cena vs Elias and Taker might be Rouseys partner or face some one like Baron Corbin ??

If Taker's having a match it'll be against Cena. The whole Cena's Road to Wrestlemania quest is building to this.

His feud with Elias was just there to keep him busy until Mania comes along.

It he is having a match (and i really hope he's not) he will not be Ronda Rouseys partner or against Baron Corbin, his reputation demands better then those two.

Agent Coulson

I wouldn't have him fight at all myself.


What I would do is have him rise from under ring during Roman's triumphant win and celebration over Brock and stare him down setting up a year long feud that leads to him lying down again for Roman at WM 35.


Roman becomes the only person to beat Taker twice at WM and main event his 5th WM in a row.

I get that Roddy gave her permission to use the Rowdy nickname and his family gave her his jacket,but she does need to start coming up with her own look.

PTH2009

with cena vs taker off the table now, who will cena face at mania ???

he could come part of the WWE title match and make it a triple threat

he could face someone like Rusev, Jinder Mahal or Randy Orton ???

Bobby roode for the US title ???

Taker prob wont have a match at all and might make an apperence

The match is going to happen. That's why he teased it.

sky88

i think its still happening i actually think it main events and taker finally retires and cena will become as good as retired as well

Pinkman

Taker vs Cena is 100% happening. No way they would tease it like that. Cena will likely face Nakamura at Fastlane and Taker will appear then or the following Smackdown. The feud being on Smackdown would be a good idea as they need some star power badly.

Seth/Finn/Miz triple threat is bound to be one of the best matches on the show but it feels way too mid card for Rollins considering how over he is and how much momentum he has after the gauntlet match. It must be incredibly frustrating for him to be in the mid card since after he faced HHH at Mania a year ago - to finally be back in the main event scene beating Reigns and Cena in one night and getting the huge reactions a top babyface should be getting only to be put in the IC title picture a week later. Vince's obsession with Reigns is nauseating at this point.

At least it's a step up from Rollins Vs. Jordan

Match quality, maybe. Story wise, no. Seth vs Jordan was one of the only feuds in WWE that was going to go into Mania with a few months of a build. Nearly every other feud really hasn't started till this week, or at least are relying on events from years ago but have barely been touched on since then.

Yeah fair point, I really did enjoy the slow JJ heel turn myself, but for a marquee match and quality wise I think it's a step up.

Finn - Miz - IC Championship, all carry more name value regardless of build.

Agent Coulson

I'm surprised Seth hasn't been given two lackeys yet so they can put on a 9 man tag for WM.

or the lads

CastorTroy

We've 2 women's champions and assuming Asuka is fighting Alexa, who will Charlotte face?

As for a feud that's been building. the Sasha/Bayley feud has been a slow burn

J. Marston

Smackdown's women's title will probably be a multi-woman match. That or Carmella cashes in for a Wrestlemania spot.

CastorTroy

Raw and Smackdown teams need to coordinate before there are too many similar matches. Like we already have the supposed triple threat IC title match.

PTH2009

what will Braun do at mania ???

surly can't leave him off the card as he is now a top guy.

PTH2009

latest is now Cenas opponent will be

Rey Mysterio

now that makes even less sense than the taker match

You mean like how they debuted 3 women teams with almost literally the same members about 2 weeks apart

Matches making sense or match quality doesn't matter, it's all about those Wrestlemania moments

Meltzee and pwinsider have both contradicted espn story on cenas match

I do like no one seems to really know cenas direction for mania

Could they have him and Dwayne again?

Scavenger XIII

Thrice in a lifetime boys! :pac:

Pinkman

If they are lucky enough for The Rock to agree to wrestle (or rather his insurance company to agree to it given what happened last time with Hercules) then he will be Ronda's partner vs HHH & Steph.

This Mystereo rumour is bizzaire. Surely they wouldn't get fans hopes up if Taker can't get cleared? If Cena can't wrestle Taker then it should've been him vs Rollins.

Speaking of Cena and Rollins.

According to backstage sources, Cena was pushing for the idea of Seth Rollins winning the Elimination Chamber Match but the Creatives didn’t think Rollins beating Lesnar would be believable and went on with Reigns.

martyos121

Of course Cena was pushing for Seth to win, Rollins isn’t in any danger of stealing his spot as “the man”. That one makes a lot of sense, after all, Cena wants Reigns to be the top dog just as much as we do.

PTH2009

mania

Cena vs Rey looks like its happening or Rey is going to be in the 205 title final.
