So, what devastating insult to Punk's family does Jericho use to get a rematch? Given he eventually settled for, "You were born out of wedlock!" I think he's out of material.

[Shaun2k5]

For some reason, I foresee Cena going into a long quest to discover himself. Like Superman in the films. He'll probably lose at this PPV just to ram home that point.

I think they should've kept doing the "Who's the Best in the World" thing for Mania & then after Punk beat Jericho, have Jericho break out the "your dad is an alcoholic, your sister is a drug addict & your a bastard" stuff, so that Punk would have a reason to want a rematch at ER.

[paywindah]

Over/under on how many WM rematches we get? I'm going with at least 3 (both titles, and then Orton/Kane and/or Cody/Show)

True. Though honestly, it wouldn't surprise me if they make it a Cena / Jericho / Punk triple threat match and Cena wins.

[greeby]

Punk losing the belt in the same arena that treated him like a god the last time? Aren't there laws against inciting a riot?

[rnrk supports BLM]

So, any guesses on what the stipulation will be for Sheamus/Bryan II?

I'm thinking a submission match, in order to make it look like Bryan's got an advantage going in.

[eldandyjamupguy]

You really think they're doing Bryan/Sheamus 2 on PPV?

18 seconds. It will ME the Live SD
I think if Christian is ready they do Christian/Sheamus because of the One More Match as a result of Team Johnny winning.

[BorneAgain]

I wonder how the fallout of Team Laurinatis winning will play out. I can see a bunch of guys earning title matches, maybe not at ER, but in the build up to it.

[kdawg]

Here are some of my match predictions/stipulations:

Punk/Jericho - either 2/3 Falls, or I Quit Match (Jericho promising to Punk that WM was a fluke and he will never tap or quit a 2nd time).
*Note - Punk will lose here in his hometown (he got his big win last year, no way he gets 2 in a row...would love for him to win though.

Sheamus/Bryan: Cage Match

Maybe an Orton/Kane rematch: Falls Count Anywhere

Don't see how Punk loses when his "Experience" DVD is building to his match in Chi.

[sarun]

Taking out my arm-chair booking:
WWE title: Punk-Jericho - Last Man Standing (Christian returns to screw Punk out).
WHC: Sheamus-D.B.-Orton (DB wins with AJ helping out to rectify "the mistake" at WM).
Kane-Ryder - Burried Alive (Ryder pulls of upset but Eve haunts Ryder and pushes him to the pit too).
Lord Tensai match.
Miz-Cena - Street Fight (Miz pulls of upset; Cena continues his quest of self-questioning hopefully).
Big Show-[Some Heel] (Barrett costs Show the title).
Santino-Otunga (GM shenanigans).
Maybe one more match.

[Deleted]

Well, Punk might not get two in a row in Chicago, but he already has failed there - Ziggler beat him there in January.

[Mochi Lone Wolf]

Yeah, Punk's not losing on this show. They need a happy ending for his DVD.

[Ryanar]

If i had to predict a match card now:

Punk vs Jericho, Extreme Rules (also known as a Singapore Cane match)
Cena vs Somebody
The Colons vs Kidd and Gabriel or Truth and Kofi for Tag Titles
Big Show vs Cody Rhodes for IC Title
Santino vs Otunga for US Title

[WorkingInAColeMine]

I don't see being able to build a Bryan/Sheamus match. I see Sheamus/Kane

[Virt McGirt]

[Ryback on a Pole!]

My prediction

Punk vs Jericho - 2/3 falls
Otunga vs Santino for the United States title - NO DQ match (Putting the US Belt on Otunga seems an obvious way to go with him been Mr. Excitement's right-hand man)
Cena vs A monster of the month
Orton vs Kane - Street Fight
Beth vs Eve - Good housekeeping match with shenanigans from Ryder
Lord Tensai squashing someone
Sheamus vs New Challenger (Cody perhaps?) - Steel Cage
Hunico & Epico vs All American Swagger vs Truth and Kingston vs Kidd and Gabriel - Ladder Match

[Captain2]

My prediction is that Sheamus will drink a cup of coffee or go to the washroom and then see if he can beat DB in less time than that.
