WRESTLE-FRIGGING-MANIA!

...is just 2 days away and I for one am tres excited.

Here are my predictions which I can boast about after the show if I am right, and delete if I am wrong, haha...

WWE Wrestlemania 26 Card:

- HHH vs. Sheamus
Sheamus needs to pull out a victory, hopefully a decisive one, as he needs to jump-start his momentum-mobile!

- CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio (If Rey Mysterio Loses, He Must Join The Straight Edge Society)
I think CM Punk will get the cheap, heelish win (to add even MORE heat to his character...if that's possible) and months of storyline will unfold as a result from this match.

- Randy Orton vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Ted DiBiase
Orton (aka the next-gen Austin) will capitalize on a dispute between Legacy over who should get the 3-count on Randell.

- No Holds Barred Match: Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon
12 years in the making! Never thought I would see this day. I could see some interference on Vince's behalf, where we may see the Hary Dynasty come to Bret's aid. Either way, I hope for a clean finish via tap-out from the Sharpshooter. I hope Shawn Michaels is nowhere to be seen in this match.

*10 Man Money In The Bank Ladder Match: Christian vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. Kane vs. Shelton Benjamin vs. Jack Swagger vs. MVP vs. Matt Hardy vs. Evan Bourne vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Kofi Kingston
Christian is my pick, who I think/hope will cash in that night on a unsuspecting new-champ Edge. If not, could be Kofi or MVP's year, or Drew getting a cheap one.

- Unified Tag Team Title Match: The Miz and The Big Show © vs. John Morrison and R-Truth
I see Morrison FINALLY getting the pin on Miz ending their feud.

- World Title Match: Chris Jericho © vs. Edge
I can see Edge dethroning Jericho in a close match-up via the spear (spear...Spear...SPear...SPEar...SPEAr...SPEAR!). As noted earlier, I can see Christian cashing in on his "brother" Edge, giving him a taste of his own medicine in the process and elevating Christian. Also an instant feud starter with Jericho rumored to be going on a Fozzy inspired hiatus. Regardless, going to awesome. Two of my favorites!

- WWE Title Match: Batista © vs. John Cena
As much as I love Batista's new found heel-dom, I can see Cena 'adjusting his attitude' (PUNS RULE!) and getting the strap to close out the show on a high note!











- Career vs. Streak – Winner By Pin or Submission Only: Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker
GOOD GRAVY! I think this is the most I have ever anticipated a match in my entire life, no joke! I knew it was a big deal in September '97 when they first wrestled. I knew it was a bigger deal in October '97 when they met in the first Hell in a Cell (on my personal favorite matches ever!). I knew how big last year's Mania match was, and I know this one is even bigger! Shawn's career vs. Taker's streak. Man, what drama! I can see Shawn going over, so confident in fact that I bet my Mom a dinner over it! But who knows. Aslong as it's a clean match, no interference and Bret Hart isn't involved!

Any way you slice it, this is going to a Mania that won't be red reels!

  1. Guess I should give my predictions, eh?

    HHH vs. Sheamus: Sheamus
    Punk vs. Rey: Punk
    Orton vs. Ted vs. Cody: Orton
    Bret vs. Vince: Bret
    MITB: Christian
    ShowMiz vs. Starship Truth (my name): ShowMiz
    Jericho vs. Edge: Edge (Christian cashes in... AND LOSES)
    Batista vs. Cena: Cena
    Taker vs. Shawn: 18-0

    I would also like to add that as much I have loved Taker-HBK, I was more hyped for Hogan-Rock. Taker-HBK has been way better in terms of in-ring, but c'mon, you were there. You know how awesome Hogan-Rock was. That was the craziest atmosphere I have ever encountered at any type of sports event, real or "fake."

    Also, cool blog dude. Keep up the good work.

  2. Oh I agree. I don't think Hogan/Rock will ever be touched! Having said that, I wasn't too stoked for it. I was excited ya, but I don't think anyone had any sort of idea what they were in for.

    Sunday is going to be, pardon the over-usage of this word, but epic...to say the least!
