The Usos (c) vs. Los Matadores vs. The Real Americans vs. Rybaxel
Prediction: The Usos win retain to kick the crowd off happy, leading to the breakup of The Real Americans on Raw the next day.


The Shield vs. Kane & the New Age Outlaws
Prediction: The Shield wins to preserve Roman Reigns' undefeated Wrestlemania streak. (Ambrose & Rollins are also undefeated at Wrestlemania, but that'll never be relevant in the future.)


Vickie Guerrero Divas Championship Invitational
AJ Lee(c) vs. 13 other divas, first fall wins
Prediction: Tamina
Alternate Prediction: Santino


Battle Royal
Prediction: Big E. Langston
People keep saying this should be the new Money In The Bank for Wrestlemania, but I'm looking at it more as the new King of the Ring, in which whoever wins can be catapulted forward without necessarily being thrown all the way into the world title chase.


John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt
Prediction: Bray Wyatt
I think the realize what they have with Wyatt and I think Cena will be willing to play ball. By all means, let Cena destroy the entire family at Extreme Rules, but give Wyatt the big win first.


Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar
Prediction: Undertaker
I'm still convinced that Undertaker will be carried from the ring on a stretcher due to legit injuries, but I'm pretty sure that that even if Lesnar paralyzes him from the neck down, he'll still be able to call an audible and get the win.


Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H
Prediction: Split Decision
Bryan wins in 18 seconds after HHH kisses Stephanie. HHH then demands the match be restarted because he wasn't ready yet. He wins the second match by cheating, only to have Hulk Hogan put them both in the title match.


Randy Orton (c) vs. Batista vs. Daniel Bryan vs. HHH
Prediction: Bryan pins Orton after HHH pedigrees Orton, Batista powerbombs HHH, and Bryan knees Batista in the face.

I was wondering if no one else had been considering this. Booking the Shield to lose for no particular reason is exactly the kind of shortsighted booking mistake that would cost them future money by prematurely, pointlessly destroy Reigns' chance to start 2-0 and lay the groundwork for The New Streak.

They did this at Wrestlemania 23, having Edge in the Money in the Bank match and losing, making his record 5-1. Over the course of the following year, he won the MITB case off Kennedy anyway, BEAT Undertaker for the belt and then ended up taking on the Streak at 5-1 instead of 6-0 in a Streak vs. Streak match.

(This is all moot, of course, if Miz wins the ARMBAR to go 4-0 and ends the Streak at Wrestlemania XXXI and Miz gains Undertaker's supernatural powers and becomes The New Phenom.)

Four-Way Tag Match: Hope this gets some decent time on the pre-show. Usos retain

Triple H vs. Daniel Bryan: Bryan, but in a screwy way so HHH can get into the main event.

30-Man Battle Royal: Chris Jericho, because the last (and most of the holds) he knows is ARMBAR after all. If he's not in, I'll take Miz.

Shield vs. Kane/NAO: Shield in a decisive win.

Divas Invitational: AJ's had the title for a while, time to switch it to Summer Rae.

Cena/Wyatt: If they want to make a star for the future, and I think they want to, Wyatt wins.

Undertaker/Lesnar: Undertaker. I hope he gets through the match without getting legit hurt.

Main Event: Bryan wins.

Pre-Show (sigh) Fatal Four-(Eight?-)Way Tag Team Title Match: It is waaaaayyy too soon to take the belts off of dem dere Usos. Winner: Usos retain.

Triple H vs. Daniel Bryan: Winner: Daniel Bryan by DQ, either by sledgehammer shenanigans or outside interference.

30-Man ArMBaR Battle Royal: If they're actually going to finally give the belt to Daniel Bryan (once and for all - and more on that in just a bit), then they need to have a heel win this one to set up another challenger. That's why I'm disregarding Big Show, Sheamus, and Big E Langston. While they've had the Miz on TV quite a bit to promote this, he's looked too much like a chump to actually win. I'm going with the only other significant heel they've got in this thing. Winner: Alberto Del Rio.

Shield vs. Kane & the Corporate Old Age Outlaws: Unless they're going to pull Ambrose and/or Rollins turning here (a la Trish at Wrestlemania XX), there's no freakin' way that the Shield does the job. Winner: The Shield.

Divas Invitational: For no real articulable reason other than her being a centerpiece of "Total Divas"... Winner: Brie Bella.

John Cena vs. Scott Hall, er, Bray Wyatt: This one's tricky, but could likely steal the show out from everyone else... including the main event, Taker-Lesnar, and even the Shield's match. We know Cena's now lost on three straight PPVs. At first, I thought they were going to have him lose here, but win in the rematch on the next PPV. Now, I think the opposite will happen... but he'll work a hell of a match with Bray, and even make him look good. And Bray might just win the rematch at the following PPV. But for Sunday? Winner: John Cena.

DA STREAK - Undertaker (c) vs. BRRRROCK LESNARRRRRRRR!!: Next. Dood, CruelAngel777 put it best:

    Originally posted by CruelAngel777
    Undertaker wins because Temporary workers don't end Streaks.


Winner: Undertaker... but it's time to start prepping for that Cena-Taker WM Streak match.

Main Event: Triple Threat for the Undisputed WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Randy Orton (c) vs. Bootista vs. Daniel Bryan: Here's where I think it all goes to shit. I've seen nothing from this company that honestly suggests that they're all-in long-term to make Daniel Bryan WWE Champion. From HHH pedigree-ing him at Summerslam, to stripping him of the title after he won it (again!) at Night of Champions, to Shawn Michaels superkicking him while acting as guest referee at Hell In A Cell, to having him join the Wyatt Family, to abruptly ending that angle, to keeping him out of the Royal Rumble, then leaving (until 3 weeks ago) him out of the WM Main Event? Maybe I'm being played as the ultimate mark here, but I don't see all this crazy, random crap as someone they're setting up as their new world champ. They want to set up the ultimate troll-job here.

Triple Threats under WWE rules are no-DQ. So there's nothing stopping a certain King of Kings from coming back out with his sledgehammer and attacking Bryan (again!) just as he's close to winning it. But that's only part of the troll-job. The other part, is after HHH is done with Bryan? He swings the sledgehammer again... to hit Randy Orton.

I'd love to see Daniel Bryan go over clean (finally!) as our new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. That said, I'd love to be in a hot tub with a naked and horny Diora Baird and Kat Dennings, too, and I don't think that's going to happen in the next week, either. Also, I've got a bad feeling about all this. Booking 101 says if your babyface is going over at the big showdown, you don't have him standing tall over the heel(s) at the last show before the big showdown. Winner: Dave Batista wins WWE World Heavyweight Championship.

Everyone always acts like Austin got screwed by being stuck with Scott Hall, but according to this article on WWE.com, Austin was offered Hogan and turned it down because he didn't think it would be a good match.

I was feeling some confidence in a Wyatt pick, but the scenario people have talked about with Cena snapping to do something excessive to win and Bray cackling in defeat feels like it's picking up steam.

I think it's also because Austin wanted to work with Kurt Angle, but they pushed the Hall match on him. So at least it could've been a good match with someone who lasted more than a few weeks with the company.

In retrospect I think Miz is going to be considered Cena's Scott Hall. It just isn't going to look right, even if Rock's involvement saved/overshadowed it.

Miz was never ready for that spot and Rock saved it from being the worst Wrestlemania main event by taking Cena out. It at least did something iconic. Miz was one of the perfect examples of the IWC getting behind someone that was not that good. I think Cena is just going to be Cena, have a giant smile and party with the fans while most of the fans look like him as if he doesn't get the joke. Yet, the joke is on them as WWE once again goes for the most trollish finish possible, because they figured out what trolling is five years too late much like all of their social media attempts.

So far, not a single person has predicted Lesnar to be the one to end the Streak, and I find that very, very interesting.

Watching the product regularly for the first time since 2005 or so, and this is the first Wrestlemania I'm going to watch live since 21. Pretty excited.

TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH:
The Usos (c) VS The Real Americans VS Rybaxel VS Los Matadores

I don't get Cesaro being on the preshow after main eventing Elimination Chamber. I don't think his push is dead or anything - I'm pretty sure the purpose of this match is to split The Real Americans finally. Usos retain.

The Shield VS Kane and The New Age Outlaws
I can't believe I went away for a damn decade and I come back and I'm still watching Billy Gunn matches. The Shield wins, no breakup. Hell, keep them together as a face faction for another year and a half. You can even start the Roman Reigns main event push if you want - that doesn't mean these guys have to feud first.

14 WOMAN DIVAS CHAMPIONSHIP CLUSTERFUCK
AJ Lee (c) VS 13 Other Women, Roughly Seven Of Which I Know Who Are
Well, they pretend like Total Divas is happening in real time, so none of them can win. And I've gotten really sucked into NXT so I'd LOVE this to be Emma, but she's just a punchline on the main roster so that's not going to happen. (Ditto Summer Rae who also has to pretend like she doesn't know how to wrestle now AND is on Total Divas to boot. Best female heel since Trish Stratus turned on Chris Jericho (I assume) and they can't do anything with her.) Looking at it this way, you've got a heel with cartoonishly impossible odds to overcome and no clear babyface who "needs" to win - AJ Lee pretty much has to retain.

THE ANDRE THE GIANT MEMORIAL 30 MAN INVITATIONAL BATTLE ROYAL
Hulk Hogan will undoubtedly be presenting the trophy to winner - and Hulk can't do ANYTHING in the ring but say "brother" and do a bad Hulk Hogan impression these days, so it's not going to be a heel he has to spar with - so, sorry, it's not going to be Alexander Rusev. (I'd be surprised if he's in it, for that reason. He'll debut on RAW tomorrow and kill a 3MB or a Los Matadore in seven seconds.) If I have to pick someone in the match, I'll go with Big-E Langston - out of more residual NXT love. (Big Show makes a TON of sense, but they've telegraphed it way way way too much for him to be anything more than be the last guy eliminated.) I'm going to go out on a limb and officially pick Cesaro, who enters the match after the breakup on the preshow. He fits everything I've tried to factor in - he deserves the push, he's GETTING the push, he'll be a babyface at that point, he can certainly credibly toss Show over the top rope AND the inevitable post-match shenanigans with his now-former partners will finally get us the Hulk Hogan/Real Americans interaction that is too damned obvious to just ignore.

John Cena VS Bray Wyatt
Bray Wyatt/Daniel Bryan at the Royal Rumble is what got me back into wrestling. John Cena is what drove me away in the first place. On a spiritual level, I NEED Bray Wyatt to win, even if I'm not 100% sure that's what's actually going to happen. I also think it'll be the best match on the card because I will concede that as much as I hate John Cena's smug face and stupid technicolor t-shirts and first-day-of-fifth-grade jorts and his "some of yall love me and some of yall hate me and that's what the WWE Universe is all about" and the way that uses the Make-A-Wish Foundation to promote way a great person John Cena is constantly and NO ONE EVER EVEN CALLS HIM ON IT (Bragging about charity work is so goddamned sleazy)- I won't deny that he can deliver in a big match setting. Got off on a tangent there. I apologize.

The Undertaker VS Brock Lesnar
Undertaker, obviously. I don't think he's going to be able to have a half-hour epic with Brock like he's done for the past five years or so, but I do think the two of them will have a damn good ten minute battle or so in what should be Taker's next-to-last match ever. (And I sure how XXXI isn't against a middle-aged man dressed like The Crow dressed like The Joker who was really not that great when he was young.)

Daniel Bryan VS HHH
Bryan wins, cleanly but not devastatingly. A reversal of something into a pinfall. HHH goes apeshit afterwards and brutalizes Bryan with the sledgehammer. The story of the night is if he can make it to the main event...

WWE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Randy Orton (c) VS Batista VS Daniel Bryan

...and of course he does, and wins. Bryan's post-match celebration is on every Wrestlemania highlight package for the next thirty years, and his first challenger is HHH at Extreme Rules (and he wins again).

The Usos (c) vs. Los Matadores vs. The Real Americans vs. Rybaxel
Prediction: The Uso's win and The Real American's argue, but officially break up on Raw.


The Shield vs. Kane & the New Age Outlaws
Prediction: The Shield wins this clean as a sheet. I find it interesting that I saw Kane & The New Age Outlaws team up against Austin, Undertaker, and Owen at a house show in Halifax in '98.


Vickie Guerrero Divas Championship Invitational
AJ Lee(c) vs. 13 other divas, first fall wins
Prediction: I can't decide between Summer Rae, Natalya, or Brie. Summer Rae or Natalya winning lets them move this Total Diva's feud onto the main shows, and Brie winning gives us the chance to have his and her champions, similar to HHH and Stephanie years back. I'm going to pick Brie.


Battle Royal
Prediction: This is a tough one because it could be one of so many. It all depends on how seriously they plan on taking it... I will go with Del Rio.


John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt
Prediction: Bray needs this win, Cena doesn't. He can get his win back next month, or the month after that if the feud still has legs. I'm going with Bray Wyatt for the win.


Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar
Prediction: Undertaker wins, this will be an all out brawl, and similar to his match with HHH Undertaker will be carried out, while Brock walks out.


Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H
Prediction: I can't see this having a winner. It would be a much better move to have both guys in the main event and have Bryan beat HHH there. I'm going with some kind of screw-job leading to Hogan putting both in the main event.


Randy Orton (c) vs. Batista vs. Daniel Bryan vs. HHH
Prediction: Bryan wins, he pins HHH allowing both Orton and Batista the ability to use the "I never lost" card setting up some future programs.

Final moments of the PPV see the good guys come out and celebrate Daniel Bryan as champ.
