This is my predictions for Mania all the way to Mania29:

Taker will win, and if this isn't his last match, next years Mania will be.

The Punk/Jericho storyline leads me to believe this will set up Punk to turn heel and go back to his "straightedge" character. Therefore making him the perfect foe for Austin and lead up to Mania29. I have read "reports" that WWE wants to announce the "main event" for Mania29 very soon, as they did last year with Rock/Cena. Austin/Punk is my guess. I can already see it. Austin comes out, stuns...idk let's say Lauranitis, starts chuggin brewskies. Then Punk comes out to confront him. Saying stuff like "You think you can just come out here whenever you want and do what you want?...you remind me of my Father, an alcoholic-bully...and I hated my Father..." And that will get things rolling to Mania29. The promos(there would be at least 9 months worth) would be epic, the one backstage back&forth he had with Punk at that one RAW was short, but very good. And Austin has said he has one more good match left in him. And that he will never get back in the ring unless he knew he could give a good performance.

And for The Rock, its been reported he has a very very busy movie schedule this year. So I doubt he does much this year after Sunday.

Lesnar...idk about this. He left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths the way he left WWE. Which is probably the reason Taker doesn't like him on a personal level. But, McMahon isn't stupid. He knows he can make a lot of $$$ if he came back, same with Goldberg or Batista.

But I hope if they do have somebody coming back and plan on saving it for the following RAW....please dont show an advtervisment for it during Mania!!! PLEASE!!! They blew it when they did that for Goldberg when he showed up back in the day. If they woulda let it be a surprise, it would have come out a lot better IMO.

Personally I couldn't care less about people's mainstream attention or attractions. I'd rather they stick with the big time names for wrestling with main stream appeal like Rock and Cena.


I don't care about adding Brock cause it might bring in a few UFC fans. There are plenty of big matches by big names in wrestling that would draw more than enough.

Punk vs. Austin would be HUGE.
Brock would draw a heck of a lot more than a few UFC fans. They bring out Goldberg and I would just be like why, if Goldberg went to TNA that would be interesting. Who would Goldberg feud with in WWE that would be interesting? Goldberg-Sting, Goldberg-Hogan i'd like to see.

Lesnar could feud with Cena, Rock, Taker, Orton and draw tens of millions for the company. They know that. Goldberg would have a few alienated TNA fans and ex-WCW fans watch. He would not be a draw at all.

Bringing in Goldberg would just be a waste. No one would care outside of former wrestling fans. No mainstream attention at all.

I could not disagree with that move. He is all over TV and is very well known. I lost tract of how many TV shows I've seen him on recently.

I have not once seen him outside of mentions on PWinsider for what he has been doing in years. I think I saw him in a magazine once.

I would kill for a Aries - Punk feud over the WWE title. Best possible feud in wrestling today.

Wrestling Observer reported last night that Lesnar has signed a one year deal with WWE and IS in Miami now.

Also reported they signed Fit Finley.

So my guess is one of them will be the replacement in Team Johnny...probably Lesnar. I just can't see McMahon allowing the "Main Event" they have been pushing for over 11 months to end with a run-in, even if its by Lesnar. But Now that I read Lesnar signed a one year deal, I see his stay ending with him losing to Taker at Mania29.

I haven't seen/read anything about Batista...

Well now that it is confirmed that Brock is there it would seem they would have a run in for him in a match. Ugh. He'll be a big deal at WM.

Where there is smoke there is fire. Lesnars back with WWE. Dana White has announced Brock is free to return to WWE if he desires, so the UFC end is cleared up.


@CM Duck. If they wasted Brock Lesnar in that joke of a match my brain would explode. He will either debut in the HBK-HHH match or the Rock-Cena match.


Batista ran a triathlon down in Miami today. With the odds of Brock returning looking like they are nearly 100% I doubt we will see Batista back aswell.

Unless he's in the cage or under the ring he won't be involved in that match. I guess he could climb up the side. I hate thinking about him being back period.

Easily can just walk down after the match and have a standoff with Undertaker, but I have difficulty believing they will have him re debut and it not being the closing moment of the show. I think after Rock-Cena ends we see him come out and hit both with the F5 and then it goes off with Lesnar standing dominant in the ring. I am a thousand times more excited to see Lesnar than anything else tonight.

I remember when Brock left before. He had worn out his welcome and the fans were glad to see him go.

Dont have to read this thread, so basically you ruined it for yourself, lol.

But I understand what your saying.

At the same time that's saying football is being ruined since espn, nfl network, twitter, etc came along and give us fans quick rumors/reports that we could never get before. Or that CZ is ruining all things "Cowboys" because some of our members have great sources and let us in on the info they have got.

But, since we are all talking about reports/rumors/predictions here's is one for you guys....

At Mania29 it will really be TAKER vs....












THE MAN CALLED STING!!!(his signing a new deal with TNA is just a storyline, his deal expires at the end of 2012...)

Lesnar had man boobs in his fight with Overeem a few months back wonder what kind of shape he's inn now. There's something seriously wrong with the guy health wise that prevents him for training so you have to question whether returning to the WWE is a good idea. Wrestling although fake takes a serious toll on the body
