According to PWInsider, the current discussion for WrestleMania 23 is WWE Champion John Cena vs. Undertaker, Batista vs. HBK, Lashley vs. Holly, and Edge vs. Orton. This is not official and could change many times over the next few weeks.

Take out Lashley vs Holly and it would work.

Lashley Vs. Holly could work...if Holly can stay somewhat healthy. Seems like every match I watch with him, he ends up on the ground in pain...and he isn't selling something from the match.
Holly is a tough, brash vetern. Lashley is a powerhouse, humble "rookie." They could weave a good story, problem is I don't have faith in ECW's booker. He missed the obvious Pride Vs. Humility angle with the Test/Lashley feud.
Also, with the revamped ideas being thrown at ECW since Vince is getting "grumpy" at the product, the main event could easily become an ECW Original Vs. New Breed title match. Maybe RVD Vs. Holly, with RVD finally being forgiven and getting the title back. Then again...that is just my hopeful fan mind.

Sounds s****y to me, unless Taker buries Cena.
I think Holly MIGHT actually stand a chance of getting cheered over Lashley. I'd die laughing if that happened.

For some reason I bet this is subject to change, especially Lashley vs. Holly. I don't see why they're just figuring the nerve damage is no big deal he's clearly working through a crapload of pain.

Which is one of the many reasons I mark for Holly. Dude is crazy tough and works past and through injury after injury. |

you know ECW sucks when their main event at Wrestlemania is Bobby "I wish I was Bill or Brock" Lashley vs Bob "I've been here for 13 years and im still not over" Holly.
I still doubt that Taker will face Cena at WM. I have no websites as sources or anything, but I just doubt that they would have built up some tension between Taker and Batista for no reason at all. Plus now fans are generally cheering Cena again....why would you risk that if you put him against Taker?
I think it'll be Taker vs Batista, Cena vs HBK, Orton vs Edge as the top 3 matches. I could be wrong, but thats what I think and hope will happen. Sadly I think Holly vs Lashley is a strong possibility, but even so they seem intent on making Lashley a big deal so no matter who hes facing Lashley isnt jobbing.

This is not official and could change many times over the next few weeks. If that was the card going into WM, no way I would order that show. None of those matches have that 'big match' feel. 'Taker vs. Batista would have that feel and Cena needs to fight a heel. I say a three way main event for RAW would be perfect at the grand daddy of them all. With either HBK or Cena vs. Orton vs. Edge. And over on ECW... RVD and Sabu are on their way out and Test and Holly are not WM main event material. bring in Benoit and have him fight Lashley for the title. |

It's meh worthy unless Taker-Tista Cena-HBK happens.
Edge vs Orton is a throwaway match for me.
We need Edge and Orton vs Stone Cold and Hogan.

we need Orton/Edge vs Hogan/Austin as much as we all need a good swift kick to the head with a steel toe boot...thats a terrible idea...of course, since its such a bad idea, it will be booked! Remember Kiddies...dont ask why...ask why not!!

Undertaker vs. Batista must happen! I've already seen Undertaker vs. Cena. No more! And if they do have Cena vs. Undertaker, I swear to God they better not have Cena beat Undertaker. Let him keep the streak!

You know sometimes we moan at WWE for doing the obvious but sometimes the obvious is the best thing to do.
So HBK vs. Cena and Batista vs. Taker please.

What anyone sees in Holly I will never understand. Excuse the cliche, but he's more boring than watching grass grow. I may respect the fact that he's a decent worker who has sacrificed his body and who is a legit tough guy, but I just have absolutely ZERO interest in him. None. The fact that's he's still around and treated as a threat--to even the ECW title--is just an absolue joke. If he has a match at Wrestlemania, let alone a world title match, it will just be a huge waste. Everything about the guy is uninteresting--his look, music, his total lack of gimmick... In my opinion he belongs on the same level as Scotty Too Hotty or Val Venis (who, if you ask me, is and always has been way better than Hardcore Holly in every aspect)--he can still put on a decent match, but if nobody cares about him, what's the point? I don't usually rant, but Holly just bores me to tears.

Sounds s****y to me, unless Taker buries Cena. When you say "unless Taker buries Cena" i'm sure some take that to mean Undertaker literally burying Cena, with dirt and a shovel and the whole nine. I think they'll just go back with the original plan, Taker vs. Batista, Cena vs. HBK, Lashley vs. who cares. |
