Apart from the fact that the feud started at Royal Rumble, Cena was still in a feud with CM Punk and Nexus. Sure, Cena's feud with Wade Barrett ended at TLC, but then when CM Punk started feuding with Cena, it seemed like a whole new feud for Cena. I was kind of hoping for a blowoff at Wrestlemania between CM Punk and John Cena, but then came the Randy Orton vs. The Nexus feud, which kind of came out of nowhere. I was sort of hoping for Cena to not be in a title match for a change, because at every WM he was in, it was always a title match.
What do you think? I still think that The Miz throwing Cena out of the rumble came out of left feud when there was little to no interaction or beef before.

Miz and Cena were having words prior to that.
The two feuds were kinda overlapping anyway, and Miz and Cena always have some sort of beef with each other dating back to their last feud.

Because according to WWE, a WrestleMania without John Cena challenging for the title is a WrestleMania not worth having.
Hence the reason why he somehow ended up challenging for and winning Smackdown's title when they wanted the Raw title match to be Triple H vs. Randy Orton, then dropped the title back to Smackdown a month later.

Cena was RAW champ at that time. WHC was RAW property.Trips jumped to RAW to feud with Orton. And they had to switch things around due to Batista getting injured.

It was three years ago and I've got a bad memory.

They wanted a fresh feud nobody has yet to see.
*gets a phone call*
Hold on a sec. My phone's ringing.
Hello?
They have? When?
That soon? That's strange.
They feuded before that as well? Yeeesh. That's pretty sad.
I'm doing good. Already ate dinner.
No. The doctor said it wasn't syphillis.
I'll make sure I'll double bag next time I hook up with a random woman.
Alright. Talk to you later mom. Good night.
OK I'm back. I think the reason is because Cena remains their most marketable star and the Miz has of course his ties to MTV and seems to have received mainstream attention (i.e. TMZ). It's the ONLY reason I could think of.

It was three years ago and I've got a bad memory. It was confusing either way. RAW had the WHC, but Edge snuck in and won it from Cena. Smackdown had the WWE title that Trips won. But yeah, I remember reading that the original plan for WM25 was shot when Batista got injured so they screwed around the got the triple threat match.

Actually, HHH was drafted to Raw before Batista even came back from his previous injury, unless you're referring to the injury Dave got before Mania.

they did because Cena is their top star by far and Miz is their up and coming heel champion who gets lots of press. its pretty simple to understand.

Because there is nobody else on the roster to make the title match even remotely important.
Morrison vs Miz will generate ZERO buzz.
Cena is The Man and that's about it. It won't be very good and I have no interest in the feud but Cena is obviously the big name and that's what they needed in the title match.

Too bad we won't see a return of Miz's Anti-Cena shirt. That miniature feud they had in the summer of 2009 was pretty entertaining.

Is there a reason people keep bringing up Miz being on the Real World? That was like a hundred thousand years ago.

Because since WrestleMania 21 Cena has been in every title match and has won all but one. God forbid they change the magic formula.

Because Cena obviously needs to take the title from the Miz.

Also I don't buy this nonsense about John Morrison not being 'big enough' to feud with Miz at WM. Since the Royal Rumble everyone's been abuzz about the guy, and not just smarks.

Because it's a potentially great match that I and I think a fair few others will pay for.
