That seems to be the general consensus among everyone. Is there even a slim chance he'll win?
I mean, I see it like this: there will be signs that say "If Rock loses, we riot." and I see the fans going insane with rage. But then I thought what if this happens instead?
The Rock beats Cena, lifts him up and actually gives him a pat on the shoulder. *Rocky Rocky* chants, not one Cena chant, and suddenly Cena explodes and starts mauling The Rock, Mania ending with him face down on the mat. Cena walks back, marking a heel turn.
But I suppose that's all wishful thinking, huh?

I'll go with wishful thinking, even though yes, The Rock should lose

I think Cena would win at 'Mania with a sudden STF tapout. It's going to be an epic build towards the end, and not a all-in-one hulk-up.

I still say Rock is winning at mania now whethere it's the right choice or not meh.
But Rock is winning IMO as I believe Cenas getting punked out by The Rock is slowly making him crack and losing at WM to The Rock will send him rollin down a cliff like samoa joe down a hill of doughnuts , which will lead to yes a heel turn after he convinces The Rock into the rematch.
I said it before IMO there is sooo much more to be done with Cena losing then with him winning...if he wins it is status quo , if he loses on the other hand you can drive that in so many directions.

This whole thing is obviously being done to further put over Cena in his own "Rock vs. Hogan"-type of match. It's why Rock keeps getting the better of Cena in their one-on-one encounters, and has left him laying twice now. This is all being done to make the moment where Cena beats Rock - either by pin or by submission - a whole lot bigger.

People would just whine that Rock buried the WWE if he won (if they are not doing it already) so he might as well just lose. I dont want a typical Cena win or a submission win. I need to see some change in Cena when that night is said and done. Im sure Rock doesnt mind putting him over as people seem to forget about how cool he was in doing jobs.

The feud's way too one-sided for Cena to lose at Wrestlemania.
Though this whole storyline is a lose-lose for Cena, as he's going to get hated no matter what the outcome.

It's the only logical way to make any amount of sense unless Rock was to hang around.
There's virtually no benefit to have a Rock who only appears occasionally and doesn't do this full-time to beat the face of the company.
That has nothing to do with burial, and everything to do with what makes sense.

Cena will mock The Rock and his hometown of Florida by doing The People's Elbow, then when Cena runs to one side of the rope, Rock will do a nip up and Rock bottom Cena. 1, 2, 3.

I'm almost 100% sure that Cena goes over, but we'll see how things turn out.
I love the Rock to death, but this is definitely his match to lose.

Logically, Cena should win if for no other reason than he has to carry the company long after that night. BUT, does The Rock need to win to keep the peace? It may sound silly, but I can see a legitimate riot breaking out if the hometown hero, and one of wrestling's most beloved superstars ever, comes up short.

I think the Rock is winning, but I wouldn't be surprised if Cena won either (which makes for an interesting PPV main event, IMO).
We know the WWE isn't too obsessed with wins and losses - they put Hogan over Orton and HBK, because Hogan was the face there. It didn't hurt Orton or HBK. Cena's lost a million matches too, his career isn't over if he loses to the Rock. Rock's going to be the face in this match, which immediately makes him a HUGE favorite if you look at mania main events historically.

Rock wins. I just don't see it playing out any other way.

It seems pointless to have The Rock win unless he either is coming back full time or it leads to a Cena heel turn. I don't see either happening so The Rock should lose.

Couldn't you say it would be pointless to bring the Rock back and have all this buildup only to have him lose and have the majority of fans leave Mania unhappy? It's not like they need Rock to build up Cena.

If Cena wins I will personally start the riot at 'Mania...well probably not but in full mark out moments a man can do stupid things. I won't be pleased though. Cena winning in Rock's hometown, unless he does heel turn (/necessary phrase for every single Cena thread ) will personally make me feel crap whilst I'm watching it. The Rock should win in his hometown, he's one of the top 3 wrestling stars of all time fanbase wise, have Cena have a match at Summerslam 2012 if they need to, anything, but you let Rock lose in Miami to a face Cena then any moronic respect handshake will get booed to all Hell. Letting fans go home unhappy? Not a smart move.

I'm conflicted on this. Rock should put Cena over but the Miami fans won't go for that one bit. They love them some Rock. WWE loves embarrassing stars in their hometowns, but Rock could easily make sure that doesn't happen. They could FINALLY have the long awaited Cena heel turn at Mania when Cena finally realizes that he's never going to replace Rocky in the fans eyes and that he can't beat him. After he loses, Cena just loses his cool and decimates Rock. Rock can win and Cena still leaves with a years worth of angles and his heat intact.
I have no freaking idea of where they're going to go and I love it.

The only thing that makes me think that Rock has a chance is the fact that it's happening in Miami. The most predictable thing would be Cena winning and gaining Rock's respect; another option is Cena winning but the outcome's controversial and Cena and Rock team up to fight off Miz/Truth or some other threat; Cena could also turn with the support of Vince or Johnny; Rock winning seems unlikely and he won't turn no matter what. OR I'm completely wrong, either or.
