I know it's kinda early, but this'll be asked eventually....
Which superstars at this point do you think are gonna miss out on being booked at Wrestlemania 25?
I wouldn't count the MITB "likelys" just yet - guys like MVP, Shelton, Bourne, Kendrick, etc.
I'm looking more at guys like Big Show, Finlay, Regal, Mark Henry...guys who are either kinda in a program right now, or aren't in one at all. Regal's kinda screwed now that Punk's in MITB.
ECW looks like a complete wash, and even moreso since we get Swagger vs. Xian (the match I figured they'd hold 'til WM) tonight on TV.
Hell, I'm not even sure what the Hardys are gonna do on the show, since it looks like there's a match THIS WEEK ON SMACKDOWN between the 2 (it could be just an insane brawl and the one-on-one match happens at WM - but who knows, really).
I guess a big battle royal is the answer for most of these guys. Probably before the PPV, though honestly why not ON the card, since these battle royals of recent years don't take that long anyway...

I knew it was a long shot, but I was really hoping for Regal and Punk to put on a wrestling clinic at WM.

I think Umaga is going to get f***ed over.

ECW will probably start the show, they seem to get one match.

I'm thinking/hoping Umaga gets in Money in the Bank as the complete destroyer in the match.
Or we get Umaga vs Big Show.

There's still a chance for Umaga and Regal; I can see them being placed in the MITB match or something to that effect.

I was going to say Umaga, but someone just mentioned Umaga/Kozlov and I can totally see that. Right now I'll say Miz. I think Morrison will STILL get in and win MITB if MVP doesn't, so I think that leaves Miz on the outside looking in from the dark match Battle Royal.

I think Umaga is going to get snorked over. I'm going to say he plays the role of bruiser in MITB. I honestly think he'd be most awesome in that match, especially if he won. I'm going to say Kennedy. |

Edge, considering that he won't give Cena a title match.
;D

Two of the top guys that come to mind are JBL and Kane.
Kane is washed up and I could care less about but I feel for JBL. He had a very strong year and really restablished himself as a top guy after being gone for a few years. Believe it or not he even got into better shape and his perforances have shown since the rumble.

Hopefully Koslov, he seems to drag enjoyment out of any match or angle.

Umaga carrying a briefcase for several months = ratings. Even better if he just ended every match hitting people with the briefcase, not really knowing what was inside...or if the briefcase was covered in bite marks from him trying to eat it. And since the last few winners of MITB have personalized their briefcase in some way (RVD got it airbrushed, Punk had the stars on it, etc.), do you think the case would have the word "SAMOA" emblazoned on it? Or if it had just one corner of the case taped up so it could do it's own version of the Samoan Spike? Man, these jokes could go on a while. |

Even though I really want both at 'Mania, I think Kendrick and Regal are out of luck. I just can't see Kane not being at Wrestlemania.

I gotta say, I don't like Kizarny's odds.
