So, the WM plans seem to be...[spoilers]

[Caliber]

The Rock vs Cena II - WWE Title

Brock vs HHH

Punk vs Undertaker

Sheamus vs Orton - WHC


3 out of those 4 matches are money, but even then there's still problems.

Does Rock vs Cena really need the title? What's the tag-line gonna be? Twice In A Lifetime? Not to mention the outcome is painfully obvious. I'd much rather see Punk vs The Rock. At least then I could stomach The Rock winning the title, so the WM build up is all about Punk trying to get the title back from the Hollywood movie star.

Brock vs HHH. Again, the outcome is without question. I'm sure that Lesnar won't resign, so you know he's gonna go out flat on his back. Hopefully they'll at least have a hell of a match.

Punk vs Undertaker. It sucks that The Rock is getting the strap, because Punk's streak vs Taker's streak would be fucking AWESOME. It'd be the first honest to God time that I'd be unsure of Taker's winning. That match would draw like crazy. But without the title? For the 3rd time in a row, it's painfully obvious who's gonna win. Taker.

Orton vs Sheamus for the WHC. Really? Why on Earth should we give a shit? Why don't they do a Sheamus vs Daniel Bryan rematch? They have a ready made story-line to work off from last year, and you KNOW it'd deliver.

Yeah, I'm not excited about any of these. Mainly because they are incredibly predictable.

Thing is, I don't really know what I even do wanna see. You are right about Punk Vs Taker, it is a foregone conclusion unless Punk still has the belt. The Michaels and HHH matches at least game me a LITTLE doubt.

Rock Vs Cena has potential to be a trainwreck since they will be expecting hometown love for Cena which he won't get.

Agreed. I am not excited about this card (nor am I dreading it) but I honestly don't know what I would book either. I am not going to be a smarky smark and be like "Tyson Kidd should be main eventing against BRIAN DANIELSON because they are the best WRESTLERS" I just don't know what program I would book right now that would make me want to seethis or any PPV (even though I still enjoy them I don't anticipate them)

[scottyflamingo]

Right now I am excited about Punk Vs Rock. But we're getting that.

Problem is the only guys I really like right now are Punk and Bryan. Bryan will likely do the tag thing with Kane. They might can feud with Rhodes Schollars I guess.

Yeah, nothing I can even think of that would make me throw my money at Vince outside of Austin Vs Punk which would happen next year if at all.

I'm usually interested in the Streak, but Punk is the only guy I'd be interested in seeing go after it. So I guess the solution is to clone Punk.

Yeah I'm not super excited about that card, I'll still watch it (every year me and my friends get together wherever we are and watch WM together, great tradition) and I'm sure it'll be a decent Mania just nothing that'll blow me away. Rock/Cena 2 will be fun of course but how much more can they do they didn't already do last year? Brock/HHH, why? The SummerSlam match wasn't all that great and I just don't see a reason for them to keep that going. Brock could be put in a much better match than a match just from Hunter to get his win back (I could see the NY crowd turning on HHH in this match, it would be funny if after Brock lost he stayed in the ring and got a standing ovation as opposed to the "you tapped out" chants HHH got). Punk/Taker sounds really good though, they had some decent matches in the past but I don't see there being any chance Taker loses here. Sheamus/Orton just doesn't sound fun or interesting, I like Sheamus but Orton is the definition of a blah wrestler. I am looking forward to the Rumble PPV, always my favorite PPV of the year as I love the Rumble match, on top of that we get Punk vs Rock, sweetness. Here's my alternate universe WM btw.

Taker vs Brock vs Cena

Rock vs Punk ( I would have held off and not done this at the Rumble)

Ziggler vs Sheamus (Ziggler won the Rumble and still has the briefcase, Sheamus has the World Title. Sheamus wins the match just barely, after the match Ziggy bashes Sheamus with a chair, cashes in the briefcase and wins it)

The Sheild vs Team Hell No and HHH

Ryback vs Mark Henry

Yeah, I suck at fantasy booking.
