One question... where is any of these matches listed as official? or are you just pulling crap out of your ass and try to start up a stupid thread... I highly doubt Undertaker is going to face Mark Henry... Mark Henry will not be part of WM..and Angle will not face Cena... Just wait and see... and don't be Stupid...

My guess is RVD vs Carlito and Shelton vs Ric Flair will also be on the card.
The whole card seem like miss matches. Guys fighting with no chemistry or reason.

I just had a horrible....HORRIBLE thought. Someone said before that they were hoping Taker would put someone over at WM. What if the WWE is wanting Mark Henry to look like an unstoppable monster so bad that they make Undertaker do the job for Henry?? I mean, I hope to God that this is just a paranoid fear, but what then?

Ok, according to Rajah, there will be FIVE main events at WM 22. They are... HHH vs. Cena Angle vs. Orton Undertaker vs. Mark Henry Vince vs. HBK Edge vs. Mick Foley Edge vs. Foley apparently will be started by Foley mocking Edge for being a "transitional" champion, like Edge mocked Foley for being. rajah.com/base/node/4724I have absolutely no problem with the card. Its better and still treats it as a post-attitude era type of card. HHH vs. Cena - will be a great match. If Cena's attitude keeps staying the same into Wrestlemania, his charisma and HHHs heel activity will make it a classic. Heck, Rey might be in this one as well...to make this a 3-way. Orton vs. Angle - Angle is a face right now and this looks to be a solid match. If Orton can do quality ***+ matches with the Undertaker, expect a **** match with Angle; mainly carried by Angle, but Orton can hold himself...he's ENTERTAINING (to me). Undertaker vs. Mark Henry - This seems like Undertaker's last full-time Wrestlemania coming up and it shall a challenging way to end it. The crowd will go crazy for this match and it won't be that bad. Vince vs. HBK - I think its gonna be Shane instead of Vince, due to Vince being able to be injured easily now. I think Vince is done, but with Shane in it makes more sense. I hope that Bret participates in this match, some way or form. If that happens, I will SO buy the DVD. Edge vs. Mick Foley - Gotta have a hardcore match somewhere. Why not, with Edge, the biggest bumper in the WWE today? This one might be a little slow, but it'll be a cool match. Remember speculation is always overassumed and its still too early to tell if its 100%. I try to look things on the positive, no matter how negative it mentally can be...just try to look on the bright side, as I just did. Will any of the matches that may happen at WM 22 become crap? Probably, but I have to be interested to see if it becomes true or not after reading a first-hand review of the event, rather than automatically assuming beforehand, that its going to suck.

Youre right, no one said Angle would face Cena! About Taker/Henry though... Yeah, wait and see. Sorry guys, I know everyone hates believing "NEWZ" rumors sometimes, but for the most part Wrestlemania speculation is right on. And also for the most part, WWE has Wrestlemania somewhat planned months in advance. I'm pretty sure they had Cena/Trips planned last year, and Orton has been being set up for a Title match for ages. Maybe not the other ones so much, though.

The way I see it, something's not a main event unless it's a World/WWE Title match, or involves Hulk Hogan.

To me, something's not a main event unless it's the last match on the card. So I guess WWE will have 5 rings and all these matches will take place simultaneously.

So by that logic, the last match on the card can be, say, Scotty 2 Hotty vs. Simon Dean, and that would be the main event over a Kurt Angle vs. Randy Orton World Title match that appeared on the middle. Main event and last match on the card are not automatically the same thing.

This looks terrible.
Taker vs Mark Henry? Mark Henry? What a slap in the face to Taker. We all see him beat Orton in Hell in a Cell and Orton gets a title shot and Taker gets Mark Henry? I think WWE doesn't want this to be Taker's last Mania so they gave him a lousy opponent because they know he doesn't want Mark Henry to be the last one on his list. A huge list of legends who have fallen to Taker at WM capped off by the guy who did it with Mae Young?
I have zero interest in the others as well... Vince shouldn't be wrestling and Shane doesn't deserve a Mania match now. I don't think Foley has been good in a while. The whole point of WrestleMania SHOULD be what direction is WWE going? Who will be champ after and who will be chasing them?
I would have preferred...
Angle vs JBL Cena vs heel HBK with McMahon or heel Cena with McMahon vs HBK HHH vs Flair in Flair's official last match Taker vs ANYONE BUT MARK HENRY. The Boogeyman? Rey vs RVD (interpromotional ladder match) Edge vs Matt Hardy (interpromotional ironman match?)

Good luck with this one. With Flair's finances, he's not going to be retiring until he is dead.
I agree, it is an insult to the Undertaker that he is going to wrestle Mark Henry at his last Wrestlemania. They couldn't even give him a good opponent to carry him to a decent match. His match last year with Orton was pretty good as both guys worked hard.
I don't think I'm going to order this Wrestlemania, not with this weak a card.

HHH vs. Cena Pretty much expected. I actually WANT Trips to go over here.
Angle vs. Orton Muh. I'd rather have Angle/Mysterio. Orton could've had a US Title match, building on his stuff with Booker and Benoit. Hell, it could've been Booker/Benoit/Orton/OJ for the title.
Undertaker vs. Mark Henry Undertaker's streak continues. Does it's job.
Vince vs. HBK Michaels has gotta have horrible knees from carrying so many matches in the past year. And now he gets another one. Except double crimson masks, and for Vinny Mac to be put through a table.
Edge vs. Mick Foley The promos could be entertaining...but I really don't know what to make of the actual match.

I'll agree Angle can pull a decent match out of anyone (almost), and Orton could hold his own just enough to make it decent. Not fantastic oh my god, what a match or anything, but decent. Having said that, is that "Wrestlemania quality"? Hell no.
Taker/Henry: What, was Taker/Giant Gonzalez not bad enough?
Edge/Foley: Depends. Foley can still bump, albeit not like he used to. But if Foley is in a Mania match, it's elementary, he's jobbing and putting somebody over. But, um, isn't that what he did for Orton that flopped? Oh well.
Trips/Cena: They've wanted this match since they brought Cena to RAW, this was the plan, and they're sticking with it. Fine. Will the match be decent? Sure. Will it be a classic? Nope. See, here's the problem. Trips is the heel that destroys people, that can't be stopped (Batista taken out of the equation, who else has, really?) and Cena is the new Hogan to WWE. They want him to be unstioppable. Soooooooo, what are they building towards? Hogan/Andre is what they're hoping for, so if Cena goes over, they expect Cenamania to run wild. If Trips goes over, well, he's the Game-uh, blah blah blah. Match won't be a bad match, but I don't picture main events that eitehr way you go, it's anti-cimactic. If Trips wins, so what, he's Trips, big deal. If Cena wins, so what, big deal, he always beats everybody, sometimes five and six at a time. So, how dramatic could it be? Sure, if they said "Trips beat the man so few have beaten", but, well, he'd have to be a face, but he's not. So, would a "Cena has beaten the Game" finish be huge? Meh.
Vince/Shawn or Shane/Shawn: The second of these would give us kick ass spots, with some sick bumps. The first choice would give us.....um....something.

Words cannot describe how angry I would be if these rumored matches had any shred of truth to them.
First off, no Rey? A guy that has worked for 15 years and is way over with the fans and the wrestlers in the back and has everything pointing to him now? Why let him win the Rumble and not go to Mania? It's just total BS. It would make a great story for him to finally win the strap at Mania. This makes me the most angry.
The other matches speak for themselves. Foley? Big fan of him, but don't want to see him wrestle anymore. Henry? No. This would make the show look like some mid year throw away PPV.
Here's how it should go down IMO:
Main Event: Taker (c) vs. Rey. The undefeated streak vs. the man who's never won the title. That's a good storyline right there.
Edge (c) vs. Triple H
Angle vs. JBL
Boogeyman vs. Orton
Benoit vs. Shelton
HBK vs. Vince and Shane no DQ
MNM vs. Kane and Big Show
Carlito vs. RVD
Masters vs. Lashley

I've never like Taker, anyway. Mark Henry vs. Taker is a piss break match, in my opinion.

I havn't got a problem with those 5 matches. It's not like last years was anything to write home about, except Angle/Michaels. So if they come up with just one show stealing match like that, it'll be just like last years.

This year is looking really sad. So sad I may have to go on Prozac.
I mean last years was no classic but it had a good build up:
HHH v Batista (Looked good on paper) The Money In The Bank Match HBK v Angle Eddie v Rey
Match's that we actually wanted to see. But this year.......shit.

What is everone complaining about. If these are the rumoured matches then is likely none of them will happen. Well except for HBK vs Shane/Vince.

WOW! thats a bad card. I was hoping that WWE would have Cena go mega heel and have Rey challenge him for that title but now I guess we're going to have to sit through the uncomfortable boos that Cena will get as he tries to be a face as he goes up against HHH. I know that WWE has had their eye on this match for the last year but why try to force a square peg into a round hole? I also don't understand the logic of putting Mark Henry in there with the Undertaker. There are not many wrestlers that can say that they had a bad match with Kurt Angle but Henry can say that loud and proudly. I wonder if the price of the P.P.V. will be the usual $49.99? Because a few of those matches mentioned aren't worth you know what.
