My Wrestlemania XXVIII Card

I don't think Bryan would go for the WWE title, specifically because his briefcase is for the SmackDown World Heavyweight Championship and also the Be the Booker section is for projects that people do, not cards.

Take a look around the other threads and you can see. Not been harsh or anything.

I've moved this from the BTB section to here because you're not planning on doing any writing about the show, it looks as though you just want to post a card and have people comment on it. It would be more at home in here.

My apologies for posting in the wrong section....

I agree with a lot of your criticisms made, but here is my reasoning for a few of those matches:

Battle of the Giants and the Tag team Battle Royal were mainly just a way to get everyone on the card without having too many matches.

Mysterio vs Sin Cara is definitely likely. They are on different shows right now for a reason, and thats obviously to keep the idea of the two feuding (or teaming together) out of everyone's minds. So why not have them finally meet at Wrestlemania?

I slated Zack Ryder for The IC/US Title unification match because of the recent push he has been getting. There is plenty of time between now and Wrestlemania to make him an actual threat to Sheamus. If you don't like Sheamus, then maybe book him against Christian instead. Or maybe replace Zack Ryder with John Morrison. Just a few ideas...

Punk vs. Austin was slated because Austin has left the door open to one more match, and has stated that he would do a feud with Punk if the opportunity arose.

For Undertaker's 20th wrestlemania match (and possible last one), there's no one better than his biggest rival to cap off his career now that Foley is back with the WWE.

I understand the issue with the whole Smackdown briefcase thing, but I'm sure WWE could find a way to make some kind of exception to the rule, or switch Orton and Del Rio to opposite brands at some point. My reason for these matches was mainly based around Cody. I think his push is/should lead him to a royal rumble win, and I cant think of anyone better for him to face (and beat) at Wrestlemania than Randy Orton. (Also, with Cena involved in a non-title match, hopefully, Randy Orton almost has to be in a title match to give it some credibility). And I've already stated why I like Bryan vs. Del Rio,

Rey Mysterio vs. Sin Cara

Sure, fair enough.

Mark Henry vs. Kane vs. Big Show vs. Khali vs. Ezekiel Jackson
Battle of the Giants

Lol what.

Beth Phoenix (c) vs. Kharma (if she's had her baby by then)
Divas Title (Diva lumberjills maybe)

Yeah, would be fine.

Air Boom vs. Miz/Truth vs. Morrison/Mason Ryan (odd combination but I think it could work) vs. Ziggler/Swagger vs. Christian/Wade Barrett (another odd combo with potential)
Tag Team Battle Royal for Tag Team Titles
- Goes along with WWE's recent habit of throwing random ppl together as tag teams

No, those teams would be awful. Just have Air Boom, Swagger/Ziggler, and maybe Kings of Wrestling and have a TLC match.

IC Title/US Title Unification Match
w/ whomever the champions are at the time (Zack Ryder vs. Sheamus maybe?) :-)

PLEASE GOD NO

CM Punk vs. Stone Cold Steve Austin (if not Stone Cold, then Chris Jericho)

That's fine.

Triple H vs. Kevin Nash (w/ Shawn Michaels as Special Guest Referee)
(Drama!!!!)

Please don't.


Undertaker vs. Mick Foley
Hell in a Cell or No Holds Barred
(Retirement Match for Both Wrestlers)

Please God, no.

Randy Orton (c) vs. Cody Rhodes (Royal Rumble Winner)
- World Heavyweight Championship

Hmm, i'd take that.

Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Daniel Bryan (Cashing in MITB)
- WWE Championship
(lots of build for Daniel Bryan needed over the next few months obviously)

Considering Bryan can carry anyone, I don't want this.

John Cena vs. The Rock
- Main Event

Well, yes.

Would love to hear your opinons.....

P.S. I added Del Rio vs. Bryan for two reasons. The first being that Daniel Bryan already said he would be the first to cash in his MITB briefcase at Wrestlemania, so I was working off of that. Obviously, this would require a huge push for Bryan, which WWE hasn't started working on yet. That being said, the best person for Bryan to wrestle at Wrestlemania would be Del Rio, mainly because if the build for the match wasnt that great, at least the actual wrestling match would be really good

Added my thoughts.

So, after seeing somebodies quite frankly, awful WM card I decided i'd bring the chat I had with my cousin the other day here and say this is a WWE card we could genuinely see at Wrestlemania this year, and I thought it was pretty amazing to see.

The Rock vs John Cena

Stone Cold Steve Austin vs CM Punk

HHH vs Undertaker

Randy Orton vs Sheamus vs Christian for the WHC.

Alberto Del Rio vs Miz for the WWE title.

Money in the Bank (Ziggler should win it)

Air Boom vs Kings of Wrestling (Unlikely as hell)

Rey Mysterio vs Mistico (Would be a HUGE PPV draw in Mexico.)

No womens match unless it's Trish vs a Diva of Doom or Sara Del Rey gets hired.

Now THAT is actually possible, and would be an amazing, amazing show worthy of making up for this years complete mess.

Threads merged since we really don't need more than one "This is what WM should be!" threads.

I'm trying to mix what I'd like but within reasonable boundaries. Just throwing this together so there could be logical flaws... Winners in bold. (Not really in order)

John Cena vs. The Rock
Obviously this is happening so...

CM Punk vs. Triple H
Not sure these fellas will be happy playing second fiddle, but they could hopefully steel the show. Two wins here solidifies CM and Cena.

WWE/Heavyweight Championship Unification - Three Way
Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Randy Orton (c) vs. Daniel Bryan
D Bryan wins this one for me, after a unification bout is made for both major championships, including IC/US.
In an ideal world Cody is in there but I don't see it. It seems the time to do it when the championship is not the focus in a way.

IC/US Championship Unification
Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Dolph Ziggler (c)
Both heels is a problem, but I want to see them, as both have mentioned put the prestige right up, and then battle it out. A win for Dolph as Cody builds for the World and Dolph continues to do what he does.

Divas Championship
Beth Phoenix (c) vs. Natalya
Sick of not getting a shot Natty turns on Beth, challenging her at WM, after Beth has shafted her into being her. Natty with the win, so she can continue to feud with Beth or Kharma if she returns.

Tag Team Championships
The Awesome Truth (c) vs. Kings Of Wrestling
Highly improbable but I see Cole costing The KOW leading to Michael Cole vs. Antonio Cesaro (sp?), not really but I have a feeling the King brings in KOW (hope not) and there is some interaction with Cole managing Awesome Truth

Wade Barrett vs. William Regal
IDK, the uber cheap reason that they're both English works for me. This match retires Mr. Regal (complications may come with this later on down there v v v)

Streak vs. Hair (okay not but so what)
Sheamus vs. The Undertaker
Sheamus takes Taker to the limit we've seen it all before 20-0. After The Undertaker looks face to face with Sheamus and collapses, Sheamus is left standing. The druids come out, Taker is carried away 20-0 displays on the screen and we see R.I.P, we never see The Undertaker again duh, duh, duh!

Big Show & Kane & Brodus Clay vs. Christian & Jack Swagger & Mark Henry
Piece of crap booking I don't know. I mean really lazy. Do not care about winner

WWE Cruiserweight Championship Reinception (Ladder?) MatchRey Mysterio vs. Evan Bourne vs. Seth Rollins vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Sin Cara vs. Hunico (? What happens to Negro Sin Cara now...) vs. Justin Gabriel vs. Tyson Kidd
Not sure I'd go for this but why the huck not, I've already screwed up with that last piece of crap. This match is won by, hmm maybe Gabriel, I was thinking of a Rey retirement match but with Regal and Taker that is simply too much, may even leave Rey out of it (IRL I think he will still be out) I don't know who'd win this.
