Yes that's right. I'm gonna go with a bit of an out there prediction. I'm saying that Kofi Kingston will not win the Elimination Chamber. John Cena will not win the Elimination Chamber. Nope, Randy Orton ain't winning it. Triple H is not going to win in the Chamber once again. And Sheamus isn't going to be unpinned any more. No. Ted DiBiase will walk out with the title belt.
Why?
Well, I've worked out what I THINK will be the Mania card. As far as I'm concerned it will be the following (for the above people):
John Cena and Bret Hart v Batista and Vince
Sheamus vs. Undertaker
Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels
Kofi Kingston in (and winning?) Money in the Bank
Randy Orton vs. Ted DiBiase vs. Cody Rhodes
Cena and Bret v Batista and Vince can't really be for the title. Of course we've seen tag matches for the title before, but in this case it would make no sense.
Sheamus v Taker? It's the latest up and coming established hoss challenging Taker's streak. It's also interpromotional (and yes, last years two title matches were interpromotional!) and so I don't think it needs a title.
Triple H v HBK? Again. This match sells itself. It's DX exploding. No title necessary.
Money in the Bank won't be for the title.
Orton v Cody v Ted without a title on the line seems odd. It's unusual to have a triple threat match on PPV without a title on the line. So why not Orton win at Chamber? Well, Orton seems to get quite facey crowd reactions these days. What would you rather see? "Anti-hero-face-in-Austin-mould" Orton coming after Ted, with Cody involved as well, wanting to show he's just as good as Ted? Or face Orton being chased by two guys the crowd are not going to get behind?
So, now, thoughts ladies and gents? How incredibly far from the truth am I? Probably quite. But hey... it's a prediction.

Absolutely not. I will literally eat a massive and overflowing bowl of assorted hats if this happens.

Normally I'd say no way, but if Sheamus can win the belt...

I don't think you can have Sheamus lose at back to back PPVs like that and not hurt him, so I don't think I would go with him v. Taker.

If it gets the title of Sheamus! ;D It's looking more likely that Sheamus will actually walk into WM with the belt (or Triple H takes and the rematch is set for WM  ). DiBiase could win, but that would probably require DiBiase and Sheamus as the final two in the chamber. To me, that's more unlikely than Sheamus not making it to the end. |

It's all fine to me other than Sheamus Vs Taker. "Sheamus Vs Anyone" kinda spoils the WM card for me at the moment..unless he was saddlebagged in MITB or something..

I don't wanna see Dibiase or Shaemus headlining a Wrestlemania in any way shape or form.
Both boring, both bland and neither deserving of a world title.

The only problem I see with this card is that the Royal Rumble winner, Edge, is not even on the card. |

Sheamus will go to Mania as Champ, accept it.
They won't put him in the main event of the show but him losing the belt to HHH in the midcard is perfectly good filler for the big show. Edge vs. Jericho or Taker vs. HBK 2 is more likely to main event.

Not sold on that one. |

He did it at Manias 19 and 24.
HHH doesn't care...he just HAS TO be in a Mania World title match. Besides, he'll win...he's happy.

What makes you think it's going to be a tag match? Bret just got his leg destroyed by a car. That's how they're writing him out of any sort of match. He'll be there, but probably just in Cena's corner.
Did HHH vs Orton last year need the title? Nope but they made sure Trips had it going in.

Not sold on that one. There may be something to the whole "HHH has to be in a title match" theory. But there is no way even he is dumb enough to allow Triple H vs. FREAKING SHEAMUS to close the show that also features Batista vs. John Cena, Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker, and possibly Vince McMahon vs. Bret Hart. Sheamus isn't fit to main event AWA Super Clash IV. The only way I could see Sheamus going last would be if he faced the Rock... ...and Austin was the guest referee.... ...and Hogan was the guest ring announcer... ...and Flair did commentary... ...and Savage was the timekeeper... |
