This Sunday will mark my very first PPV buy ever, as I will buy WrestleMania 26...Thoughts and predictions on the matches I care about...
1: Orton Vs. Legacy in a triple threat.
--- I think Orton gets beaten down, rallies in a crowd erupting fashion, only to be pinned to help his 'antihero' face push get over in the next few months. Orton losing helps everyone get over in their respective roles.
2: ShoMiz Vs. Truth/Morrison.
--- ShoMiz wins, Morrison needs to move to higher things, R-Truth is awful.
3: Money in the Bank
---Christian seems the best possibility, but I think WWE continues McIntyre's push by having him beat out the uuber-face Christian to help try to get some heat on him... Shelton does something breathtaking. Bourne does something even crazier, but it ends with McIntyre ruining all the high flying action with something to win.
4: Hart/McMahon
---Hart kills McMahon and ends it with the Sharpshooter. There is abolutly no other way.
5: CM Punk Vs. Mysterio
---Everything I read says this feud is going to hair Vs. mask... Rey never loses a feud in the long run, so I hope he wins here and Punk keeps his hair/cult leader heel status as opposed to the wrestling classic "OMG IM BALD SO I TURN INTO A SELF-CONCISOUS BABY" role. Punk is the best thing in wrestling today and I really hope he doesnt go down that path.
6: Edge Vs. Jericho
---"SPEAR!!1!!" has been a pretty bad build-up...I like Edge, but Jericho is my all-time favorite, and I think he retains until Backlash when Edge gets his big "SPEAR"-ING win.
7: Batista Vs. Cena
---Bad guy Batista has been one of my favorite characters recently. And that is saying something looking back at what I used to think of the guy...Sadly he is going against SuperCena and...Will probably lose. I hope I have my title matches wrong, but Cena can't lose at WrestleMania!!!
8: Career Vs. Streak
--- This is the hardest match to call...I can't see a clean finish. Taker's streak wont end to an old ever-over man. Shawn can't lose clean again...
I say HHH (after losing to Sheamus in an earlier match) costs Micheals his 'career' and alowing Taker to keep his streak, but allowing Micheals an 'in' when he is ready to come back.
Possibly his final match could be a non-sanctioned street fight against HHH at the place where he resumed his career, SummerSlam?
