Ahahaha holy shit I actually saw this movie! I remember it because it had the Black Ranger and the pet store chick from Deuce Bigalow: Male Gigolo.

Orton/Bryan? Guess that confirms plans of Orton winning the rumble, but the great news in all of this is Bryan keeps the title until Mania! Fuck yeah!
Look...I LIKED HHH-Taker 2 from last year. I had a good time watching it and it told a great story.
BUt there is literally NOWHERE they can go with this. This isn't like Taker and HBK, where the story changed and both men were so good they made it work wrestling wise.
There's nothing they can do that they didn't last year. Table spot? Kicking out of finishers, even the huge ones? Sledgehammer spot? HHH doing a tombstone? Submission loss? All of it has been done last year. What could they possibly do with this?
Taker, I trust, but HHH is well past his prime and his wrestling is far too limited in variety anyway for any sequel match.
Also displeased about Orton/Bryan, but only IF that means he's winning the Rumble. He doesn't need it, he's already done it, and someone like Barrett, Sheamus or Ziggler could REALLY use it. Otherwise, I'm happy, as that would be an excellent match. I'd like a Bryan/Barrett/Sheamus Triple Threat personally, but Orton will be good too.
Hopefully Jericho wins the Rumble to face Punk.

I approve of MITB returning to mania
On the PPV it has to many top stars in it. With most big names already in matches at WM it means more young guys get to strut there stuff.

Shawn should come back for this match and make it a 3 way. He is probably too busy slaying animals for that though.
But that's just a stipulation. The match itself, they have nothing they didn't do last year.
Bleh, nothing too surprising, but the build-up to Punk-Jericho (perhaps starting this Sunday?) should be real fun.
Orton-Bryan could be good too, even if Randy's the probable winner there.
And that Shaq match could only be unintentionally great, or just awful.
Also should be the same group of guys in MITB (Kofi-Swagger-etc), but Ziggler seems like an obvious winner in that, right?

Orton is definitely winning the Rumble. Bryan is keeping the title till mania, there is no real face on Smackdown that can take it away from him other than Orton. CM Punk will get screwed by Jericho to start the feud.
This is what Wrestlemania is looking like with WWE Logic
The Rock vs John Cena
CM Punk vs Chris Jericho
Daniel Bryan vs Randy Orton
Undertaker vs HHH
Kane vs Zack Ryder
Goldust vs Cody Rhodes
Money in the Bank
-Shaemus -Ziggler -Hunico -Kofi Kingston -Mark Henry -Wade Barret -Christian -Del Rio

You know Elimination Chamber is another WM world title shot right?
I was thinking of a possible card and I found Ziggler kept getting left out, along with Barrett/Sheamus if neither wins the Rumble.
If the MITB match returns to WM, it will give a lot of upper mid card guys something to do, and obviously give one guy the chance to move into the main event with ease.

Actually I wonder if they might even have a Ziggler/Foley match.
Foley really should have retired by now, but I guess he'd like a final retirement match, too.
He did wonders for Orton (hell, he MADE Orton) and Edge with two previous returns, maybe he could help Ziggler to the top with his final run?

No chance of a Mysterio/Sin Cara WM match makes me sad.
Seriously, and this is probably Rey's last WM.
Shaq could probably wrestle a legit match. Plus he doesn't have the NBA telling him no anymore. Outside of basketball he's worked and trained with LA and Miami police departments and he has seriously trained in MMA. On top of all that, he is an actual fan of the sport and would be there to have fun with it vs collecting a paycheck.

Apparently the idea was originally to get another NBA star? Guess with Wrestlemania in Miami this year
That could have been Rey's final match, and they could have really torn the house down with a great Luchador bout. Would have been the perfect sendoff for Rey, and a passing the torch moment for Sin Cara.
Fucking injuries.
Why Mr. T? Why LT? Why Mayweather? C'mon, you know Vince is a huge mark for any mainstream media attention.
And at least it'd be better than anything LeBron-related.
Shaq isn't exactly...current, for sports superstars.
Well, Shaq's still on TNT every week hosting Inside The NBA, and only retired last year. Not like he disappeared. He's definitely still a name.
Shaq will get mainstream attention, plus he's big in Miami.
I suppose he's still famous, I don't follow anything related to that sport or him, so I only assume his heyday passed a long time ago.

I heard they tried to get LeBron James.
It probably won't be Taker's last match if it's HHH. It will likely be H's last match though.
The NBA probably told LeBron the same thing they told Shaq when he still played. Wrestling is too big of an injury risk.
Yes.
Ziggler/Foley is the one I had my money pegged on after last week
I'd wager Undertaker doesn't have another match like he'd need with Jericho in him. We'll probably get Taker/HHH this year with Taker retiring HHH, Undertaker will skip a year to sell the match (unless something big comes up for him like Lesnar) and probably retire vs Kane at XXX.
Punk doesn't have anyone else over enough to face at WM28 though...
Ugh, such a waste of a year. He ought to have retired HHH LAST year, and be facing someone else this year.
Disappointing but expected because HHH kept having reeling promos of their match and had to keep shoving it everyone's face that he wants to face him again.
Like we really need HHH v. Taker 3.

It needs to be Taker and some other guy who should ONE MORE MATCH, be it Foley or Kane.
