He better. But then again, with John Cena in the match, anything can happen. Plus there's Rollins and his MITB briefcase to worry about and Paul Heyman's always gonna be at ringside.

You're right about that, but either way, here's to hoping CENAWINSLOL doesn't happen.

Rollins cashing in on Mania would be dope, though.

Cena beating the man who beat 'Taker would be so Vince, though.

Rollins ruining Bryan's title reign... Now that is how you would have mega-heat :ambrose:

Yeah, Cena beating the guy who conquered Taker's Streak and the man who took Cena's virginity that same year is so lame.

About Rollins cashing in on Bryan... That's what I've been pulling for to happen for months and months now. It'd lead to an awesome feud. But either way, whoever ends up being the champ at Mania, Rollins cashing in that night would still be dope.

So, if it's Bryan, it'll be awesome. If it's Reigns, then we'd get the former Shield feud. It's a win-win either way.

I don't think we should worry too much about Lesnar keeping the title.

I'm staying optimistic about him retaining.

I'm beginning to question it actually. I think the interest in Lesnar defending at Wrestlemania might be waning and Reigns is not really riding a wave of momentum.

I've personally been thinking that a good idea, if Undertaker insists on wrestling at Wrestlemania, that a rematch with Lesnar in which he wins would be a wonderful bookend to his career. It ties up the whole Heyman gloating of the past year and although it doesn't restore the streak, it allows the Undertaker to put an end to his Wrestlemania career by beating he who beat the streak. It gives closure to the most famous Wrestlemania story ever. It is the only conceivable reason to have an Undertaker match at Wrestlemania at all. It also frees up Seth Rollins to take the title, being the number one heel, to defend against Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose or Daniel Bryan (hopefully not Cena).

He can't look like a monster, and I am not expecting him to look as strong in a triple threat match at the PPV here. More than likely Cena loses but looks strongest, Rollins eats the pin, but Sting distracts, while Lesnar barely pulls it off.

I doubt the match is much more than a mediocre dance with 3 men and a pudgy lady in white facepaint and a tshirt over her unitard.

I'm not questioning it that much, really. B/c I'm still positive Bryan is winning the Rumble, so Bryan vs Lesnar is still my fantasy-booking for Mania.

A rematch between Bork and Taker? I'm not sure I wanna see that. I think it's more likely we'll get Wyattt vs Taker than Bork vs Taker II.

Speaking of Seth Rollins taking the title, I think the former Shield feud is bound to happen either way. Doesn't have to be at this year's Mania, though. I'm expecting Bryan/Rollins feud till SummerSlam, actually. But we'll see how everything goes... We're getting closer to Rumble, baybay!

Oh, I don't really care too much to see a Lesnar and Taker rematch myself. But I think it makes more sense than Taker versus Wyatt. No one can possibly come out a winner with the latter. If Taker loses, we have the greatest winner at Wrestlemania losing two years in a row. If Wyatt loses, we get one of the most up and coming heels losing a match that barely makes sense that it even happened.

Taker versus Lesnar works because it can send Taket into retirement with a win over the man who caused his greatest defeat ever. It also allows Taker to go out with a win over someone who is not going the be hurt in any way over the defeat. Also, Taker has yet to have a worthy defeat of Lesnar.

Do I want to physically see a match between the two? God, no. The match last year was a freaking train wreck of epic proportions (you notice I've been using more platitudes lately? I need to watch that) . I'm not a fan of either guy. I couldn't care less about the Streak as I have been rooting for it to end since Wrestlemania 22 (I would have had the biggest mark out moment of my life if CM Punk had broken it).

I have no desire for it and doubt it will happen. I just thought image wise it was the best way on paper (another platitude) to tie up tbe Streak. I'm with you, give me Bryan versus Lesnar. I'd love to see Daniel Bryan do what no one else could. And Daniel Bryan feuding against Rollins would be a phenomenal feud.

I think Cena will win to match Naitch's Magic 16, as he should,and then lose to a Rollins cash in.

I wish I could be at the bars on Sunday with Naitch and Cena when they celebrate that.

So, they're gonna have a man who conquered Taker's undefeated Streak at Mania and the guy who took Cena's virginity that same year, only to drop the titles back to Cena?
Just so that Cena could say 'LOL, I'm tied with Flair's 16 WC record. Another 16 to come.' and then Cena would drop it to Rollins a few minutes later. That is so typical for WWE to do.

That's meh, in my book. Rollins would lose the titles at Mania to the RR winner (Bryan/Reigns), which would be a piss poor 2 month reign. Here's to hoping it doesn't happen, though.

I'm still pulling for Bryan vs Lesnar, Rollins cashes in on Bryan or on Lesnar if Bryan fails to defeat Bork at Mania and all's well.
