Just for a bit of fun, what do you think the main matches will be at this years Wrestlemania?

I reckon:

WWE Title: Triple H vs Edge
World Heavyweight Title: John Cena vs Jericho
Matt Hardy vs Jeff Hardy
The McMahon's vs Legacy! (Maybe?!)
US Title: MVP vs Shelton Benjamin

I know Orton won a WM title shot at the Rumble, but I don't know how they'll work that in, they're obviously building something with Shane/Vince/Steph. Maybe Shane will become champ!

I'm not sure where Shawn and JBL / Undertaker and Big Show fit in either, I'm still thinking about that!

It will all start unfolding in the next few weeks. I think they will do Flair and Jericho, with Rourke in Flairs corner.

Wrestlemania blows nowadays. Haven't watched one since 2003. There just doesn't seem to be any wrestlers that grab your attention and/or are marketable. I'm wondering how much more mileage they can get out of the Flairs, undertakers, or triple H's.

Wrestling is just not very popular anymore it seems. It's a shame because I was huge wrestling fan as a kid. My father hated it with a burning passion but I didn't care.

You think Flair will have another match?

I'm not so sure, I think there's a good chance he'll be there, but I think he'll be in someone's corner, not actually wrestling.

Yes I think he will be wrestling Jericho. I bet he challenges him tonight on Raw.

There's a money in the bank match at Wrestlemania. Has become one of the best matches they have in recent years.

I really, really, really hope Flair doesn't wrestle ever again. That being said i think he will. The promo Jericho gave last night was awesome and had some truth to it. That looks pretty good. I'd take out 2 guys out of MITB 8 seems like too much.

They kinda left it open on Raw last night. Ric was saying he has too much respect for people to come back? I'm still thinking he won't wrestle again in the WWE. Although isn't his son Reid due to be called up soon? I know he was about to have his debut, but Ric said he wasn't ready yet. Maybe Reid will take his fathers place if there is a match.

Rumour is that Vince is pushing for Austin to face Orton at WM 25

Why would anyone pay money to see this? These same guys are on television every week.

possible spoilers..

Here is an update regarding WWE's plans for the top four matches at WrestleMania. Besides the brother vs. brother match featuring Matt Hardy versus Jeff, officials have three other interesting matches in mind.

On the SmackDown side, Edge will be defending his WWE Championship against Triple H. Triple H has been pushing to be involved in a championship match at WrestleMania and he will get his wish.

As expected, Randy Orton will be wrestling John Cena for the World Heavyweight Championship. Predictably, Cena will retain his title at this Sunday's No Way Out pay-per-view in the Elimination Chamber Match.

In a blockbuster match-up, Undertaker will put his WrestleMania winning streak on the line against Shawn Michaels.

Mania is the main event. Now especially since it's the 25th. I loved all 24 of them. Again "Mr Wrestlemania" Shawn Michaels is gonna make history. Undertaker isn't loosing this year. Look for sweet chin music. Somebody is gonna get it. Like a baby bites? Shawn kicks. Someone is getting kicked!

It's getting embarrasing watching Shawn Michaels with that balding long hair. Just a brutal hairline to look at! Always a great in-ring performer but he needs to let that long hair go.

We might get a few more clues tonight.

Edge vs Big Show
Triple H vs Orton
Swagger vs Christian

I'm gonna stick with the above, but I've just been reading that Rourke is waiting til after Sunday's Oscars before deciding whether to appear at Wrestlemania. If he won't, then they're gonna put Jericho against various 'has-beens' leading up to a big match at Wrestlemania against someone like Hogan.

Plus, we'll have Shawn Michaels vs Undertaker, Jeff Hardy vs Matt Hardy.

But, where does Cena fit in to all this?

Surely its got to be Austin, hes in his home state, hes going into the HOF and hes front and centre of the WM 25 poster.

Everything i've read has said that Austin is 50/50 on having a match. Physically, he could hold up for one more and has said Jericho is one of the few guys he trusts to have a farewell match with.
