That would really piss off the people who dropped big money to attend the biggest show of the year expecting a classic "Mania Moment."

That's also a great point. If anything..I say DB some how wins at WM but loses it either the next night on Raw or the next PPV. I really don't think DB has what it takes to carry the company. Take nothing away from his wrestling abilities.

Anyone see a swerve where Batista wins and Bryan beats him on Raw the next night?

Or how about Punk runs out the night of WM during the main event, Helps Bryan win, balloons come down, streamers, thousands in unison cheering yes then Punk lays out DB setting up a long awaited feud between them both

We already saw that at SummerSlam with Orton. Plus, Punk would need to win another Money-In-The-Bank briefcase for it to have any consequences.

Its possible.  Right now the odds of DB winning are too predictable. A knuckle ball like that would be a great idea.

Predictability has never stopped WWE in the past. Again, I give you WM 14, where Austin's winning the title was a mere formality, same with Hogan at WM 7 and Cena at 'Mania last year.

I've noticed Bray Wyatt is naming the city he's in before saying "We're here." This is the proverbial "cheap pop," usually done by a face. Makes me think that a Cena heel turn is not an impossibility.

Somewhat analogous to when Scott Hall continued with his little catch phrases as a heel to elicit a pop. Pops are addictive and hard to give up.

Cena will never turn. To much of a money maker, merch, make a wish etc.

He goes heel, not sure his merch would sell

Right now he generates 100 million for WWE. No joke. Thats a lot of scratch to scrap on a roll the dice heel turn.

Don't forget the Scooby-Doo cartoon he just did.

Definitely a longshot. Cena's is the WWE's cartoon character for kids. There's no one I can see taking that role, at the moment.

Perhaps there will be a tease of a turn just to get the 'net buzzing

That strategy is good for generating short term interest. They could capitalize by using that brief increase in viewers to introduce and/or build up some interesting long range angles like with Wyatt's, Sting, Taker, Bryan, etc.

That would really help spread the word and build additional attraction.

Cena will not be turning heel. He does too much stuff for the kids.

I have heard rumors that if one of the reasons Punk walked was he was supposed to wrestle HHH at WM with DB facing Sheamus....

Guess DB owes Punk a ton of gratitude

Apparently HHH took it personally when that surfaced online. Good for Punk IMO.

Just think about this for a minute now....  how excited would we be to see these very same matches if they were still using jobbers and squash matches each week to build the guys up?  Now we see this same shit week after week on free TV every Monday night.  There is no excitement or anything to be worked up over for these matches.

That would actually sell more IMO. Imagine the crowd reaction at WM if that happened?
