Are we seriously getting Jericho/Fandango? That's a waste of Jericho - the triple threat IC match tonight should have been at Wrestlemania.

So unless he has a match between now and Mania (which I think will happen mind you), would Big E. be making his main roster TV wrestling debut at Mania? If so, wouldn't that be a (non-celebrity) first?

If so, wouldn't that be a (non-celebrity) first? It would for a male. Believe it or not, Sunny was actually the first non-celebrity person to have their first WWE match at WrestleMania in that WrestleMania 25 Divas Battle Royal, only by the sheer dumb luck of not having wrestled one single match during her entire original run.

I don't expect Jericho/Fandango to go past 1 or 2 minutes. Jericho gets a token Mania win and Fandango has his debut against a big star on a big show. Reminds me of Ziggler's debut ("Hi, my name is Dolph Ziggler" / debuts against Batista / SPLAT!)

Well the career stipulation more or less ensures Triple H is winning. So there goes the one main event match that wasn't 100% predictable yet.

Rhodes/Sandow/Truth/Brie/Nikki/Kaitlyn/Layla/Cameron/Naomi/Brodus/Tensai...they're all kind of intertwined right now, I wonder if a match or 2 can come out of that? I don't expect Jericho/Fandango to go past 1 or 2 minutes. Jericho gets a token Mania win and Fandango has his debut against a big star on a big show. Reminds me of Ziggler's debut ("Hi, my name is Dolph Ziggler" / debuts against Batista / SPLAT!) Actually they had a somewhat competitive match and Ziggler looked really impressive. I remember being surprised at how good he was.

I really hope we get an IC title rematch from tonight.

Triple H/Lesnar is OFFICIAL. And thank goodness it's not gonna be a MMA-style match.

Hey, if anyone was hoping to get tickets for an Axxess VIP session, WWE just added two w/ Jericho and Ryback. They go on sale tomorrow at 10 AM.

Just my quick thought on the Mania card.
It is pretty predictable but I am looking forward to the most of the matches, like Taker/Punk to see what Punk can get out of Taker, Trips/Lesnar as I expect to see a crazy brawl because Lesnar is crazy and Ryback/Henry just because it looks awesome.

What do you think will be the order of the main attraction matches? I don't mean the complete order of all matches, but out of the main matches, what will be their order?
My guess is: 1. Alberto Del Rio v. Swagger (possibly first match on show) 2. CM Punk v. Undertaker 3. Triple H v. Brock Lesnar 4. Rock v. Cena (definitely the very last match).
The big question is whether Punk/Taker or Brock/Triple H goes on first. I suspect it will be Punk/Taker going on first. I think the fact that Triple H's career is on the line means that it will be treated as a notch above Punk and Taker.

Didn't they already announce that the World Championship match is opening?

Edge/Del Rio and Bryan/Sheamus were the openers for the last two, so it would be three in a row if the WHC opens the show. I guess the big mystery is which match comes first: Punk/Taker or Triple H/Brock. Like I said, I predict Punk/Taker.

WHC is NOT opening the show because Dolph is cashing in.

Are we seriously getting Jericho/Fandango? That's a waste of Jericho - the triple threat IC match tonight should have been at Wrestlemania. You're telling me. Chris Jericho, one of the most popular wrestlers in the company, one of the biggest stars in the company and one of the best wrestlers in the company returns from an abbreviated hiatus to have a match at WrestleMania with a dancing goofball whose gimmick is that people mispronounce his name? Amazingly, this is the one thing that is beneath "Robot Combat League".

Its like the Wrestlemania card and build is WWE's Corrupt a Wish game: The veterans should put over young talent:"Okay, Jericho will lose to Fandango." Oh, um well we want Brock at Wrestlemania!"Fine he'll face HHH in a rematch." Huh. Okay but Dolph Ziggler needs to be spotlighted. "That's why he'll team with Big E. Langston, silly." Geez, uhhh, Punk deserves a high profile match. "Absolutely, so he'll be Taker's 21st gimmick at Mania." ...Can you please just do something with the mid-card?"Of course, that's why Miz will win the IC title and get his WM streak to 4-0!" ..."Glad you're happy!"
