When thinking of the card I couldnt help but compare it to Unforgiven 2006 in the way of there being a Hell in a Cell that wasnt the last match on the card, it was Cena vs Edge TLC. Maybe it was because of the hot/crazy Toronto crowd but I felt the Hell in the Cell worked because of its placement right in the centre of the event, given them time to gradually heat up back up again for Cena vs Edge.
At the beginning makes no sense and second to last could potentially kill the heat Cena vs Rock has (Rock/Cena should remain the main event imo as it is the one hyped for over a year, so I wouldnt think of changing Taker/HHH to last match on the card). I rate Unforgiven 2006 highly on ppv's past 2000, and I believe one of them reasons was due to the well thought out and carefully booked placement of the matches.
Do you feel in the middle of the card would be the best place for the Chamber? Discuss

I agree, either that or the jericho/punk slap-bang in the middle of the show.

I have a feeling that Jericho and Punk are going to go on last. Rock and Cena would be second to last.

I agree also. Put them in the middle, with the Divas match or introducing the HOF inductees right afterwards.

I view it as being:
First match: Bryan/sheamus
second match: Money in the bank/multiman match
third match: Rhodes/show
fourth match: Punk Jericho
Fifth match: Hell in the cell
Gimmicky filler match/divas match/comedy segment
Main event: Rock/cena
and tbh even if its only six matches, that would be a pretty stacked Mania x

This is what I see:
MITB
Rhodes/Show
Bryan/Sheamus
Team Ace vs. Team Playa
HIAC
Diva's Match
Punk/Jericho
Rock/Cena
And some segments in between at some points to give the crowd a break. Now that is a stacked card.

I think it should go on second last. On almost any other card in history I would say put it in the middle of the card so it doesn’t kill the main events heat but I honestly feel that Rock and Cena will have the crowd going crazy no matter what comes before it.
I think the last 4 matches should keep getting bigger, almost like WM 19.
I would have it go:
Bryan/Sheamus
Punk/Jericho
Taker/HHH
Rock/Cena
To me, that’s the perfect order. Put Bryan/Sheamus or Jericho/Punk on after HiaC and before Rock/Cena and I feel that they will get a HHH/Orton 2009 or Jericho/Edge 2010 type of underwhelming reaction.

It'll be at the end. Just like last time when the Rock did a match with a legend and Triple H decided the WWE championship should go at the end.
This time it'll be the streak.
And then he'll say "Well I didn't want it to be at the end but..."

I have a feeling that Jericho and Punk are going to go on last. Rock and Cena would be second to last. No chance they'd make that mistake again (WM 18). I agree Taker/HHH should be splat bang in the middle. I imagine a cool down match will follow (divas? Ryder/Kane?) then go on to Jericho/Punk and finally Rock/Cena. It seems unfortunately likely that Sheamus/Bryan will be on first, but Heavyweight Title matches shouldn't go on first. I'd put it before Taker/HHH. |

It should start at 8:30 pm est, then have two "fillers" to cool down the crowd before Cena/Rock.
My Order:
1. WHC:
Bryan vs. Sheamus
I like the idea of a WHC match opening wrestling Mania. You'll have a hot crowd to start AND a great wrestling match too.
2. IC Title:
Rhodes vs. Show
Bring it down some.
3. Team Ace vs.Team Teddy:
Del Rio, Henry, Christian & Otunga vs. Orton, Mysterio, Santino & Booker T
Bring the crowd back up with Ace cutting a promo before the match.
4. HIAC:
Taker vs. Trips
BAM! right in the middle of the card so it gets its proper focus & time without taking time away from other matches.
5. Tag Team Title Match:
Ziggler/Swagger vs.Truth/Kofi vs. Miz & ??
It's Filler, but gets more guys who should be on Mania, on Mania.
6. WWE Title:
Punk vs. Jericho
Bring the crowd back up with a great wrestling match.
7. Rock vs. Cena

Iunno. The weird booking they've been doing at PPVs lately really makes me think they won't put on Rock/Cena last.

What I would like....
1.
Tag Title Match of some sort with whoever.
Time: 10-15 mins
2.
IC Title
Cody vs Big Show
Time: 10-15 mins
3.
Money In The Bank Ladder Match
Time: 30-40 mins
4.
WWE Title
Jericho vs Punk
Can't be anywhere else on the card. The crowd will be a little burnt out perhaps after this one.
Time: 25-35 mins
5.
Team Ace vs Team Long
Middle of the card, but will be a cooler after the WWE title match
Time: 15-20 mins
Hall of Fame inductees segment
5-10 mins
6.
HIAC
Triple H vs Undertaker
With the crowd sufficiently cooled, time for another big match.
Time: 30-40 mins
7.
WHC
Sheamus vs D-Bry
I don't think the crowd will be as hot for this one, so it'll be a nice cooler match whilst having some action therein.
Time: 15-25 mins
8.
Main Event
John Cena vs The Rock
Time: If mania was all matches back to back, we'd have about 40 mins left here. So you could easily fit in a 20-30 min match if you keep filler segments low.
I had posted this before, but it was still logged into my friends account if anyone saw that.

I wish the four main events would be placed in the main event slots in the card. Sheamus/Bryan, then Punk/Jericho, then HIAC, with Cena/Rock closing it out. I think it's so silly for a match that's presented as a main event to go on before a Divas Championship match. I never agreed with the thinking that the crowd needs a "breather" between main events.

I see where you're coming from, but crowds are burnt out so easily you can sometimes end up with a dead crowd for an excellent match. Even though I suggested the WHC going on just before Rock/Cena, I doubt even that will happen. It wouldn't surprise me if Team Ace vs Team Holla went in that slot. One thing is for certain, Rock/Cena will be on last and that's all we really know. I just hope they don't go with a World/WWE title match to kick the show off again. |
