I don't see Jericho lasting in the main event slot that much longer. Maybe a semi Main Event match is in store Chris. I still say the big match will be Austin vs HHH, though.
"Kent Brockman here once again at The Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, where a complete evacuation has taken place. Details are sketchy at best, so we've taken what little information we have, added our own theories, and concluded that whatever the likely disaster, it's most likely the work of our former president Richard M Nixon, even though he is rumored dead." -Kent Brockman
I've said this since before Vengeance...and I'm sticking to it...The WM Main Event WILL BE Jericho vs. HHH.
Loosie, you're a brave man. Possibly a little touched in the head, but a brave man. I would love to see that main event, and I would love even more to see Jericho come out on top. But I don't think it's going to happen. But if you are so sure about that and would like to place a friendly wager on it, my email is in my profile
I'll go with Spf and Loosie, that HHH/Jericho would be a great match, that I'd love to see, especially since it is in Canada. But I really don't think WWF will do that. The Big 3-way is what I will think will go down, even though it would be stupid, mainly because WWF can't do 3-ways.

According to the latest net rumors, HA! It will be..drumroll...
HHH VS. AUSTIN
and
ROCK VS. HULK HOGAN.
I kidd you not. So, the WWF was thinking about HHH/Jericho, it being Canada and giving Jericho more of a run with the title. That would be logical and almost the right thing to do, but damn what Canadian won't mark out for the guy that refused to fight Bret Hart, Chris Jericho or Benoit?
I'm loathing this NWO thing already. It would be cool to have a Four Way or Six Pack Elemination match with either Jericho/HHH/Rock/Austin or those four and the returning Benoit and Shawn Michaels or Taker in the Hell in the Cell cage. I say gimmick out this year since the all bad part of the 2000 WM was winning the belt, if Rock or Mick won, they would have done another four way again.
Triple H vs. Rock vs. Austin is the obvious... However, you have to wonder HOW they would get two challengers for the title with only one Rumble winner, unless they want to repeat the whole Bret/Luger thing (then they could have H vs. Austin in February to 'decide the challenger at WM', only to have it go to a no-contest of some sort)....
They could finally put Rocky over at a WM, and in big, big way by having him go over both Austin and H, especially if all three are still faces.
However, they did have Undertaker lay out both H and Austin, so unfortunately they want him in the mix somehow.
Though, it could be that they really are building to H-Jericho, since they teased a feud between the two a couple of weeks ago on Smackdown when Jericho gave his buddies gifts. They have yet to really follow up on that, so either they've written it out or are just doing a very slow build for it. To make it a 'bigger' match than it seems right now, they could eventually pair Stephanie with Jericho.
But either way, after last night I'm hoping they do Angle-Kane at WM and give it 10-15 minutes (if Kane can last that long without blowing up...)
Also, Benoit's big return vs. Booker T would be nice.
Hmm..completely forgot about him.. Ok. so now the dream main event would be Jericho vs Angle *blink* and then Hogan walks in after Y2J wins and challenges anyone in the back. Only to have Benoit walk out, put Da Orange One in the sharpshooter for a minute and then he walks on, to have Jericho and Benoit wrestle for another 30 minutes.
Imagine this is some funny signature. Then I will imagine you compliment me on it.
Main event: Fatal Four-Way Rock (champ) vs. HHH (Rumble stip, returning to heel form by then) vs. Austin vs. Undertaker. If Hogan's going to return anywhere, it'll be by sticking his nose in here somehow. I have zero doubt that the main event will mutate into a 3-or-4-way.
Jericho vs. Edge and Angle vs. RVD elsewhere on the card.
HELLO KITTY gang terrorizes city, family STICKERED to death!
That's the elevation, the casual fans are gonna bite, and when Wrestlemania rolls around, and Y2J is still champion, they'll finally believe he is a top player
Part of me also says that he'll retain at Wrestlemania, due to Steph, but its Wrestlemania, so the good guy should win in the last and final match
Which begs the question, what is the last match at Wrestlemania?
I don't think it'll be Title, I get the feeling it will be for survival of something
Disagree of not, your smarkish dreams of Angle and RVD won't happen at the Rumble.
Austin said on RAW he won't be wrestling for the title at Mania
That leaves 3.
Jericho lasts 8, drops the belt, and is main event for the rest of his career,
Regarding the Best of Seven Series, I would love for one of them (preferably Benoit) to win in 5 or 6 matches. Going all the way to 7 will seem too boring and too predictable.
