Randy Orton vs. Sheamus
Dolph Ziggler vs. Alberto Del Rio - World Heavyweight Championship
Now i honestly would be pretty happy with a card like this because it has so much story to each match and all matches are a fresh feel to the wrestlemania scene with all high potential . Even the Triple Threat Wwe Title Match John Cena wants the wwe title back and revenge on rock, punk wants revenge on rock taking his title or if he doesnt take it rock is trying pursing the title. and the Undertaker match you have triple H who just lost his last two matches against these two men and even though it was a special guest match last year i highly doubt wwe would make something like this a triple threat since they tend to repeat themselves.
Your definition of “realistic” is to have Jack Swagger and his all-American goodness show up a month before the PPV and steamroll through Cesaro who is building himself quite the following? Or to have a match with no story to it be the number 4 to the prize spot of the card? Or let’s negate those choices and bring about the fact that there are 10 matches to this card for a Wrestlemania. Should these be 5 minute matches, because I’d be pissed to pay $75 for a PPV and get matches shorter than what I could get for free on RAW.
The triple threat is just a safe route to keep a title on Punk or help give credit to him for not getting pinned, which would do absolutely nothing for either man who won. If Punk does go over, it will be questionable as he had “aide” in defeating two of the most recognizable names in the business. A triple threat would hurt the WWE title after Punk has built so much credit for it. Taker should retire 20-0, beating a man who has been in 2 matches since returning is pointless unless you want to have a match of the “biggest names who wrestle the least” in which you should throw Bret Hart in for a special ref. At least he has an excuse not to wrestle. Sorry, but the logic you presented in this card is flawed and it would end up being a glorified RAW with the bonus of having Rock, Taker, and Lesnar actually showing up… Not to mention the glitz and glamour would have to be cut in order for any of these matches to be worthy of the price tag. And the “over the top” nature is what makes it Wrestlemania, not just Summer Slam.
