None of those matches are Wrestlemania worthy.

Am I the only one who wants Orton/Lesnar in a Battle of the Youngest Champions ever? Think about it? Keep Trips off Mania (a shocker I know; let him be the shock return the next night), and put the Lesnar/Trips rematch at Extreme Rules to end Lesnar's career. Orton and Lesnar can probably pull off a great match, and don't tell me the pop would be quiet for an RKO out of an F5.
This is probably the most logical thing to do. Lesnar's 1-year contract comes to a close with a "Career-Ending" Match, and Trips gets the win back, and you then have at least somewhat of a decent story for the rematch.
That being said, Vince will decide we want to see something totally different, and end up not making a single one of us a happy wrestling fan.

I can guarantee Triple H will not be wrestling at Mania for one simple reason.
His entrance will look silly as shit with short hair.

The whole point of Brock should be to use him against top-tier talent or guys you want to push to the moon. It's a waste to use him against HHH again. It would be way better if it were Taker (after that incident when Brock lost to Cain Velasquez) or Ryback. Hell, I'll even take a Brock-Punk match at WM if it were possible.

Bald-taker actually looked pretty good. Trips looks like a schmuck.
And yes, too many rematches. Lazy booking. Asking for the wrong reactions. Cena getting booed out of the building to close the show. Sheamus working as a face against Orton. And finally, Trips, who has diminishing returns, especially with his new look, against Brock, who alot of people probably want to cheer for.

So basically, WM27 was the Road to WM28, and WM29 is the Backlash/Extreme Rules card full of rematches?

The big money match is Lesnar vs Ryback. The irresistible force meeting the immovable object. And that sucks for Johnny Curtis. Why does he need a gimmick like that anyway? Just have him be Johnny Curtis, and he has little bits of the Fandango character, but simply as Johnny Curtis. Nobody is paying to see Ryback |

I don't know who wants Lesnar/HHH 2 besides Triple H himself. Lesnar will have no reason to accept a rematch, and Triple H lost to him fair and square. Not to mention Lesnar broke his arm TWICE. Why would you have Lesnar come back to lose 2 matches?
If it's anything besides Undertaker vs. Lesnar at Wrestlemania, it'll be a bust in my opinion. Lesnar/Taker have such a great backstory, they have a history with one another. Taker never beat Lesnar, so that adds intrigue to it and begs the question, "can Taker actually beat Lesnar." Than you add that Lesnar is a legit MMA fighter, so that make it even more possible that this could be Taker's end of the Streak. I think about of fans (the marks at least) will be scared that Lesnar is going to pummel Taker to a pulp.
I don't want Sheamus vs. Orton. One, it doesn't interest me. Two, I don't agree with Sheamus winning the Rumble again. I really want them to have Ryback win the Royal Rumble than face Big Show for the WWE Championship. If Sheamus does win the Rumble, than what are you going to do with Ryback?
Rock/Cena II seems like a lock. I don't give a crap what Punk does this year, he could face Mix for all I care. He's not the star he think's he is, I'm sorry. I think Triple H should just take the year off.

If they go through with this, Sheamus will look like an idiot if Rock wins the title and Sheamus doesn't challenge him.

They cannot be serious with Sheamus winning the Rumble again.

I've noticed Raw hasn't had any pyro for weeks now. Strange, but I'm sure it costs them a fortune every week. They haven't stopped doing it for ppvs have they? I can't remember if they did them for TLC or not. I hope they at least keep ppv opening pyro |

As much as it seems like Hunter is an egomaniac, and I have no doubt he'd want his win back from Brock, I think his little comment about Undertaker on RAW is foreshadowing a Lesnar vs. Taker match. They wouldn't have had HHH namedrop Taker if there wasn't something coming that intertwined them both.

After Sheamus took another clean loss at TLC, I actually could've seen them using this to reinvent him a bit by pulling him off TV and having him return to win the Rumble with warpaint and back to a more barbaric persona.
But since he's still being jokey good sportsman Sheamus and the loss hasn't really changed anything, it's hard to see much point in another Rumble win.
Either way, I'd rather see Sheamus/Ryback for the WHC at Wrestlemania than Sheamus/Orton.

They wouldn't have had HHH namedrop Taker if there wasn't something coming that intertwined them both. That's what I'd thought, too. And I think that makes the most sense. But that still leaves the question of what Triple H does. Seems hard to believe they'll leave him off the card entirely, and if he does have another match, it wouldn't make a lot of sense for him (kayfabe speaking, obviously) to not want another shot at Lesnar. |

Hell, I'll even take a Brock-Punk match at WM if it were possible. you have noticed how they book Brock, right? He's a bear who mauls people. I only want him in the ring with guys who are established. Unless Sheamus vs Brock ends in ten seconds with Brogue Kick I've got no interest in it. |
