We’re in the final leg of the Road to WrestleMania, and while WWE might throw in one or two small things this weekend, by now we know basically the entire card of action set to take place. Throughout this article I’ve setup a little preview for each of the matches we know to expect and created at least one associated poll to allow you, the GuysNation portion of the WWE Universe, to express your opinions and predictions.
Rey Mysterio vs Cody Rhodes
This is easily becoming one of my most anticipated matches on the entire card. Cody Rhodes broke away from his “Legacy” gimmick, evolved into the Dashing One, and now has evolved even further into something that reminds me of the early days of the Mankind character… and that’s a good thing.
Give some thought to it before you pick your answer for this one…
United States Championship
Sheamus (c) vs Daniel Bryan
Believe it or not, they’re actually having a United States Championship match at Wrestlemania, and the feud actually has some legs to it, going all the way back prior to Sheamus becoming King Of The Ring.
Another “who should / will win” poll
Stone Cold Enforcement Announcers Match
Jerry Lawler vs Michael Cole (w/ Jack Swagger)
In a match that they’ve been shoving down our throats, two announcers will do battle, with Steve Austin and Jack Swagger likely playing prominent roles.
I’m not going to ask who you think is going to win, because Lawler needs to get the victory and I don’t see any way that Cole gets a win.
Real Reality Mixture 6-Person Tag
John Morrison & Trish Stratus & SNOOKI vs
Dolph Ziggler & LayCool
This match would probably seem bigger to me if I was a fan of Jersey Shore, but I’ve never watched it and have no intention of watching it, though I do appreciate how popular Snooki is.
Eight-Man Tag
The Corre (Barrett, Gabriel, Slater, Jackson) vs
Big Red Evil Santi-Koz (Big Show, Kane, Santino, Kozlov)
When I started writing this article earlier tonight, this match was still unofficial, but for anyone who has been watching RAW and Smackdown, the writing was on the wall. With The Nexus making an earlier exit than I was predicting and likely not being back around en force after Wrestlemania, I’m curious what the future holds for The Corre.
Randy Orton vs CM Punk
Judging from the way the fans responded to CM Punk tonight, I’m sure that I’m not the only one who is hoping that Punk beats Orton at Wrestlemania, and I’m sure others find his plight sympathetic as well. I have low expectations, so I’m really interested in the outcome of this poll.
World Heavyweight Championship
Edge (c) vs Alberto Del Rio
Some say that Alberto Del Rio seems destined to become World Champion, while others think that he’s not ready to start that part of his career at Wrestlemania. I think it could make Smackdown more interesting, but I’m not sure what’s going to happen.
WWE Championship
The Miz (c) vs John Cena
If WWE sees The Miz as being one of their top guys, this would be a perfect opportunity for them to give him more credibility with a victory at Wrestlemania over one of the WWE’s top guys, but I’m not convinced that WWE Creative would have Cena lose this match. Also, there’s also the chance that WWE does something along the lines of Wrestlemania IX. (History lesson: Bret Hart lost to mega-heel Yokozuna at Wrestlemania IX, then Hogan shows up to keep things from getting out of hand and Yokozuna challenges him to a match, and Hogan wins a quick match to become champion)
Undertaker vs Triple H
Two of the biggest names in the business in the past decade are stepping into the ring with one another, and yet again the WWE has me thinking that Triple H might actually break the streak. I’ll break this into multiple polls…
HHH made a serious claim on RAW…
Speaking of prominence…
HBK showed up tonight…
And the ultimate question…
