Re: WWE
Think it will be Y2J vs Punk for the title 'best in the world'
I'd narrow it down to 3 guesses for rumble winner. Sheamus, Barrett or Ziggler. All 3 are really impressing and showing that they are ready to rise (or return) to main event matches and storylines.
The way Ziggler dropped the US title to Ryder after a few defeats then being put into a series of matches with Punk suggests that they have plans for him, possibly with a move to Smackdown to keep things fresh.
Barrett has been on a roll and they need to find another target for the 'Barrett Barrage' now that Orton is out of the way.

Re: WWE
Estimates were 6 months but he's billed for house shows next month. Apparently the original plan was Orton to win before he got injured (hometown win yet again) so its possible

Re: WWE
I would tip Seamus to win, if Orton makes a surprise entrance like Cena did one year he could easily win though. Between Jericho walking out, the Funkasaurus and CM Punk's promo on John Laurinitis, Raw made me lol for the first time in ages.

Re: WWE
Looking like one of the most boring wresle mania's in recent history this year. Cant see sheamus winning another title. Punk will hold onto the belt til WM and lose to Jericho I can see that coming. Also, this is looking to be Taker's last WM.

Re: WWE
I really want Jericho to beat Punk. (Can't help but think you may disagree
) It's more likely Jericho will win at EC and Punk regains the title at WrestleMania.
At least WM27 can't be much worse than the Rumble.

Re: WWE
Wrestlemania looks set up to be very special this year.
1 The Rock vs. John Cena Singles match
What can be said about this match. The 2 guys in the match say it all. Its been good to see Cena do something other than have the title or chase the title for the last few months. Really Cena should win because Rock will just go back to hollywood after this match. But Rock could just as easily win this. 2 of the biggest icons of 2 different era's in wrestling facing off.
2 Daniel Bryan (c) vs. Sheamus Singles match for the World Heavyweight Championship
Bryan has gotten over somewhat as champion and he comes off as a good heel somehow getting out of title matches and somehow retaining his gold. I reckon Sheamus will win the title here. This could well be the 1st match of the night. Not brilliant but Bryan and Sheamus are both good in the ring.
3 The Undertaker vs. Triple H Hell in a Cell match
Undertaker v HHH III. The 3rd match between these 2 at wrestlemania and its going to be another classic. I dont think it will beat last year's match but its still going to be a great match as Hell In A Cell is invovled. I reckon Undertaker might have one more match next year at wrestlemania where he faces kane then he will retire. That should be the main event next year. I can only see Undertaker winning here. This match wont be main event so i cant see HHH winning. It will be a great match still. I cant see HHH wanting to feed his own ego too much by beating the undertaker.
4 CM Punk (c) vs. Chris Jericho Singles match for the WWE Championship
This match has potential to steal the show. Been looking forward to this match for ages now, both are brilliant in the ring and will prove that come April 1st. Hard to predict this one, could well end up seeing Jericho walk out as wwe champ. The feud will continue after mania i reckon.

You're forgetting the inevitable Long vs. Laurinitis match for the Raw & SD general manager spot.
Also, I hope Wade isn't out for too long

Re: WWE
It's a definite broken arm from what I gathered. After Jericho at the Chamber, arm injuries seem to be a running trend. No idea about Ziggler, but he seemed to hit the announce table head first.
I was watching it with my dad, and we both cursed at Cody Rhodes when he chucked out Santino, nearly causing him to land on the guys working on Barrett. Stupid idiot.

Re: WWE
Yeah that was poor from Rhodes. I understand they have to work certain spots in the match but he had 3 other sides of the ring to choose! Ziggler is fine, he was just selling the bump like he does so well!
Cant wait for Mania.

Re: WWE
I'm really disappointed with WWE for doing HHH v taker again. was a poor storyline first time round and the build up this year is worse. don't get me wrong, the match last year was great but surely they can do something other than *insert name here* trying to take the streak. The last one with build up as a normal match was Edge at 24, the streak was mentioned but not the whole reason for the match. A match against Undertaker at wrestlemania can be as big a push for someone as a long title reign too. Everyone remembers the matches, a lot of exposure going into it, and even in defeat, Undertaker can make opponents look good. It takes a certain character to carry a storyline with him, but I think Wade Barrett or Randy Orton would do a good job, possibly sheamus or ziggler but not as sure with them.
Rock vs Cena is going to be unpredictable, apart from pretty much guaranteeing a superhuman comeback from cena and both men hitting finishers. This match needs a lot more buildup to make it feel like a true wrestlemania moment. As for them saying it's the biggest, most anticipated mania match ever, may I just say that title will probably never be taken from Hulk Hogan v Andre The Giant at Wrestlemania 3.
Punk v Jericho is a promising match, again with disappointing story so far. I think WWE are struggling with this one because the fans had worked out their exact plans before Jericho even returned, and they don't want to be seen as that predictable. Having Jericho get the title shot another way would have been better, getting bored of battle royals for the slot with blatantly obvious outcomes. I think Punk will win, as Jericho is recording with Fozzy and planning tours with them so may not stick around too long after Mania.
EDIT:
I know I have knocked WWE a lot in this post for repetitiveness, and lack of decent writing, but parts are being quite well done and some of the matches recently have been good. I really want santino and R Truth to get more air time after their lines lately. They are doing a pretty decent job with daniel bryan too, considering injuries to others changing their plans a couple of times. Think AJ should maybe have been kept out of this storyline, and stop mentioning that he's vegan, we get it. Ziggler has been put on back burner recently with no obvious opponent for mania but after that (and hopefully without vicki) he'll be putting on top notch PPV main events soon

Re: WWE
Good read mate.
I think WWE had to do HHH v Taker again. Cant see who else is around to do the job. If HHH loses it wont hurt him too much at all. I would like to see Cena v Taker or Punk v Taker next year. Make it more unpredictable if its undertakers last match. Next year maybe he will have kane.
Cena should beat Rock but it might be in Rocks contract to win
I reckon Jericho does stand a chance in winning. He can easily lose the title in a few ppvs time when he goes back to fozzy in the summer.
I cant wait for wrestlemania. Hope the build up is good.
