Like the fact Eve defeated John Cena, now I know it was posted top of the page, but just using it to make a point it's a shock factor, the reason why Raw was & is still good is that Raw always does something that makes you want to watch it the following week.
That is what I'm going for when I read other BTB, yours is just that 100%. It's great to see so many great creative BTB posts & yours is always entertaining & makes me want to read more because you have the shock factor I was mentioning.
Looking awesome your wrestlemania if Raw & Smackdown is anything to go by.

8. What are your thoughts of the overall card?
Hey guys the contest is up, just a quick note this will be the final show for this project... I loved it while it lasted however don't worry I'm sure to be back sooner this year. I just have other things to commit to so I leave you guys with one message... I will be back
I will be back but when I return though it will not be a current day Booker, after WrestleMania 28... I will have a month to plan the next best thing I have up my sleeve.
Had my eye on this thread for a while and I have been reading, I've just been very lazy with reviews and feedback, so I'm going to give my predictions for Wrestlemania. I will then review Wrestlemania and give my thoughts on the overall project as a whole.
John Cena vs. The Rock This should really only go one way, and it should go to John Cena. If we consider this the ultimate swan song for The Rock's career, then you would only have to presume that he would put someone over, despite looking very strong. However, if you aren't carrying on the project after Wrestlemania, then I would see why you might have The Rock win for the feel good moment, and you don't have to deal with the repurcussions of the, quite frankly, poor booking. But I think you're a sensivle enough guy to give the victory to Cena.
Triple H vs. The Undertaker
This is the easiest match of them all. In my opinion, The Streak should never be broken and even if it were to be broken, I don't think there could be a worse person to give that accolade to than HHH. So for that reason, I choose The Undertaker
CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho Punk has had a huge push this past year; but he still lacks that big Wrestlemania moment in his career. You could say Money In The Bank was, but it doesn't quite cut it for the next big guy for the company. A win over Jericho would be huge for Punk's career.
Teddy Long vs. John Laurinaitis Laurinatis is far more interesting. Teddy has been in the job for eight years, which is six years too many to be honest.
Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton vs. Sheamus vs. Wade Barrett Think how amazing D-Bry would look managing to overcome the odds once again over three of the premiere superstars in the whole world? He'd look a million dollars and would be very beneficial and could easily lead to a title unification match at Summerslam, or next year's mania. So Daniel Bryan, IMO.
Sin Cara vs. Rey Mysterio Old vs new? New should win, especially with how little time Rey has left in his tank. Cara is the future, as much as I don't like him and he deserves the victory over Mysterio here.
Money In The Bank It's close between Dolph and Cody, as they could go further with it. However, I feel that Cody has a lot more charisma and potential as a SUPERSTAR (rather than a wrestler) so he wouldn't need an elevation device such as the briefcase to be promoted to the main event. Whereas I think Dolph needs it a little bit more, to become a convincing main eventer
Beth Phoenix vs. Kharma The Divas divisionneeds a new light and Kharma is that new light. For that reason, she has to win, surely?
Primo and Epico vs. The Uso Brothers
The Usos most definitely deserve the championship, a very underrated team and this match could set the tone for the rest of the night. A hot opener with a very hard fought babyface win, liveining the crowd up.
John Cena
The Undertaker
CM Punk
John Laurinaitis
Daniel Bryan
Sin Cara
Dolph Ziggler
Kharma
The Uso Brothers
SUNDAY | APRIL 1, 2012 MIAMI, FLORIDA | SUN LIFE STADIUM ''Once In a Lifetime"

We then see a video package outlining the feuds heading into the event thus far. We open the packages with The Rock and John Cena, these two will settle their differences here tonight at WrestleMania 28, however who will end up being praised and who will lose everything? The Undertaker and Triple H will enter Hell just to end an era here tonight. Who is the best in the world? we will find out as CM Punk defends the WWE Championship against Chris Jericho. Who is the man to carry the World Heavyweight Championship next? is it Sheamus? is it Wade Barrett or is it Randy Orton, or will Daniel Bryan find out a way to still retaining his World Heavyweight Championship? And after tonight there will only be One General Manager in the WWE who will it be either John Laurinaitis or Teddy Long, Shaquille O'Neal will make sure that only one man reigns supreme for both shows here tonight.

Cena however when Rock has him positioned for the Rock Bottom, counters and hits a quick Attitude Adjustment from out of nowhere. The Rock is selling as many moves as he can. The Rock kicks out of the Attitude Adjustment in a quick amount of time. John Cena cannot believe what is happening. Cena then tries to hit another Attitude Adjustment however it is countered into a Rock Bottom. The Rock then goes for the people's elbow as he hits it right in the heart of John Cena. Rock goes for the cover however Cena kicks out AGAIN. The Rock is going nuts in the ring as he has had at least a liter of sweat lost tonight. The Rock goes for a high risk move however he is caught in the air by Cena who slams down The Rock with an Attitude Adjustment. The crowd roars with excitement as Doan counts 1,2,3...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Winner: John Cena defeated The Rock at 38:28.
After the match was over both bodies could get up, both men were down. The crowd cheered on both as Cena got up. The Rock then couldn't stand the fact that Cena had won and had a dis-honored look in his eyes. The Rock then clutched his gut and would stand toe to toe with Cena as he had been defeated. John Cena was excited. The Rock then shook hands with Cena as the two gave the WWE Universe a stand out main event. The two are cheered by the Universe and the audience here at the Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Florida in a jam packed stadium with 83,453 people watching them and plus the entire world watching them as well. Michael Cole, Booker T, Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross farewell us from Miami. The Rock hugs his mother at ringside as Cena poses for the WWE Universe as the show fades to a black screen.

To the guys who checked this thread, thanks for all the feedback, this is the very first BTB that I have completed, my long term plan was to reach WrestleMania 28 and I did so thanks.
Love the huge return. Did not expect that whatsoever.
Pretty pumped that you're pushing the Uso's. I really like them as a team.
Enjoyed the Money in the Bank match, and glad at the winner. Also, your Undertaker/Triple H match was beautifully written, as was the Cena vs Rock match. No complaints here. Thoroughly enjoyable read, and I hope that you continue post WM.
A great Wrestlemania write-up which was up quickly and yet is very in depth. It is very good and wraps up your feuds very nicely.
I have to say that I fully enjoyed this whole diary and kind of wish you carried it on and saw how far you could take it but I can respect you had a goal and you achieved your goal.
Like I said this was a very enjoyable diary and I enjoyed reading it week in and week out, great job
