    The only reason I think Swagger won't win is because it should be a sure thing that Ziggler cashes and has a heel ever cashed in against another heel and won the title? I don't know my history well.

    I am pumped for next week, though. Definitely value in Hell No and then hedging when Ziggler/Big E are dogs closer to Sunday. Can't see them staying a favorites.

    Maybe this will be their way to turn Dolph face?  He will get the biggest ovation and pop of the night if he cases in, especially on Swagger. 

    Too many faces are slated to win matches...
    Cena  (Face for now)
    Taker
    Ryback
    HHH

    Shield is only heel right now heavily favored.  I think Sheamus is the best bet of all the rest of the big heel dogs to win. 


    Fandango -1200
    Jericho +600

    Wade Barrett +160
    The Miz -210

    Tons of Funk -210
    Rhodes Scholars +160

    That's a good point. He's expected to be a face eventually but I feel this storyline with AJ is too fresh to happen so quickly. But apparently he's got a big fanbase in the NY/NJ area so he'd get a big pop regardless of who he cashes in against.

    I do agree that there are too many faces set to win but, like I said, Cena isn't the popular one over Rock.

    Rhodes Scholars are really dogged?

    I can see them finally giving Miz the big win since turning face but I feel the title is better with Wade.

    Then Fandango is another heel. 

    The problem is too many faces in the big matches. But I just can't see it going any other way. I could see Henry winning as Kapono broke down but I can also see Ryback winning because of my initial breakdown. I just don't think we should think too much into this and just take the big favs in the end of the broadcast ruling except for Taker who should win without any BS.

    I actually spoke to Henry after the TLC PPV at Barclays.  He told me he's hanging it up very soon and wants to put guys over on his way out.  I really think he is putting Ryback over in a BIG way.  I think Miz could win.  He's been on a roll recently and Barrett already was able to plug "The Call" that came out a few weeks ago.  Think they do put the belt on the Miz.  I could see Rhodes Scholars pulling out a win.  I wouldn't bet that match.  Dolph got the biggest cheers at TLC and the NY crowd is in love with him.  The moment will be MONUMENTAL if he cashes in at Mania.

    jp548's avatar looks like she got beat in the face with a frying pan.

    That being said, here are my plays:

    Lesnar +800, 1 to win 8.
    Mark Henry +700, 1 to win 7
    Sheamus/Orton/Show +800, 1 to win 8
    Hell No -150, 1.5 to win 1

    Adding:

    Sheamus/Orton/Show +1200, 1 to win 12
    Wade Barrett +325, 1 to win 3.25
    Rhodes Scholars/Bellas +250, 1 to win 2.5


    Remember fellas -- a DQ where one of the three of Sheamus/Orton/Show get attacked is a loss for the Shield and a win for that trio. How about Orton turning on Sheamus and helping the Shield? Or how about any of the Shield attacking one of those three with a chair?

    If anyone was going to win and defeat Undertaker at WrestleMania, it was going to be either Shawn Michaels or Triple H.  In the last four WrestleMania's they both had two shots each at the dead man, and neither got the ultimate nod from Vince.  That goes to show how RESPECTED the Undertaker is not just among the men in the locker room, but by those that make the ultimate decision on who wins and who loses. 

    For some reason I was under the impression that last WrestleMania was Undertakers last match, but I guess not.

    Maybe one day his streak will end if he continues to wrestle, but I don't see him losing to Punk.  The Urn, which are supposed to have Paul Bearer's ashes in them, are part of the story line here and the 'Taker wants them back.

    Nice to see that Vince is starting to push the tag teams again.  At least it seems that way over the last year anyway. 

    Only eight matches?  Remember the day when they had 10 to 12 matches at WrestleMania and got them all in, in 2 1/2 hours or less? 

    Regardless of what title belt you hold, if you are not appearing at WrestleMania you have to feel some what slighted by those in charge of making the card. (I think that every year actually)

    No women's match announced yet?  To be honest, I'm glad.  In general those match in my opinion are awful.

    By the way, what happened with Batista.  Did he leave the WWE for another promotion, or did he leave to make movies?  I think having Mark Henry, Ryback, Brock Lesner, and Batista in a feud for months would make a good story line.

    While I'm at it, no surprise the Vince McMahon "ECW" brand didn't survive.  I thought it was a watered down version of the WWE and had no chance from the start after watching a couple of episodes when they first brought it back.  In fact, that was actually McMahon's second attempt to revive ECW.  With that said, will we ever see the McMahon's try and reboot the old WCW?  I know it has been what, 10 years now at least since he bought the old WCW?  I've always said that when McMahon treats both the ECW brand, and the WCW brand with the same amount of respect that he gives his WWE brand, then that is when those two brands would flourish under his thumb.  To bad his ego keeps getting in the way.  Would have been nice to of seen four hours of wrestling on Monday nights.  Hour One could have been ECW.  Hour Two could have been WCW.  Then hour three and hour four could have been WWE.  Heck he could have even broken new wrestlers in through ECW, promoted them to WCW after they hit a certain learning curve in the business and paid some initial dues.  Then if the wrestler's credibility and his character was a draw, then he could have been promoted to the WWE.  Plus wrestlers like Jericho who are aging but still trying to hang on, could be ("down sized") back into the WCW where they could breathe new life into a fading career when they have no chance of ever being a top title contender in the WWE again.  Plus the McMahon's could have made up some legit pay scale, and the wrestlers would have made more money as they got promoted from one brand to the next.  As for wrestlers like Jericho who have seen the peek of his career come and go, here is what I think the McMahon's could have done as far as the pay scale goes.  Wrestlers like Jericho could of been paid more than the wrestler who was just promoted from the ECW brand, but less than what he was making when wrestling in the WWE brand.  I think this idea would have served well in the case of some wrestlers like Wade Barrett and the 3MB group.  I think those guys still have a lot to learn about wresting, talking to the camera, etc.  In my opinion they are awful at times to watch.  I'll even through in Cody Rhodes on that note because he can be awful to watch at times in my opinion, and he has been with the WWE now for at least five years.

    As for John Cena vs The Rock, Cena wins no doubt.  Rock makes way to much money doing movies to actually come back to the WWE full time.  After WrestleMania, I doubt we see much of the Rock.

    Batista is doing MMA now. He can come back whenever he wants, though.

    Cena is getting more boring by the promo.

    I like how Rock said "This damn sure...this DAMN sure...isn't about passing the torch".

    And Heyman dressed like Bearer was right on.

    I'm curious to see who fueds with Cena afterwards. I think Punk may be going on a bit of a hiatus and that storyline is overdone anyway. Unless there is another heel turn from someone else...who's left?

    Cena won't turn because of what bigant and myself have said. Too much charity work. How can you be a convincing heel if you're known as the best good guy outside of the ring? Yea heels do charity work and showings (like Miz) but it just won't work with Cena.

    In an interview Cena even said when talking about his charity and turning heel:

    "To sacrifice all that I do for a short-term story ... it doesn't seem worth it."

    Sure he wouldn't just come out and say he's turning heel but this just makes sense.

    2. Del Rio is probably winning as well, although I could have seen WWE going with a Swagger victory before his DUI.

    3. Punk at +1000 is worth a tiny shot. If Taker is going to lose, its this year to a guy like Punk.

    4. For Sheamus/Orton/Show to be +800 is an absolute joke. They should be +220 or so at best. Massive value on those three. Shield eventually have to lose and why not at WM to this new "superteam"?

    5. Ryback -1500 against Henry is a joke, massive amounts of value on Henry +700 as well. Henry is the vet and the backstage boys may want to give him some thank you wins for his long tenure. Ryback will be around for a while and doesn't need a win for his character to be taken seriously.

    6. I'd play Hell No up to -200. Ziggler/Langston won't win the titles while Ziggler has the briefcase.

    7. Lesnar at +800 is a complete effing joke as well. HHH will lose, his career will be over, and he will go to the backstage job.

    My plays:

    Lesnar +800, 1 to win 8.
    Mark Henry +700, 1 to win 7
    Sheamus/Orton/Show +800, 1 to win 8
    Hell No -150, 1.5 to win 1
     



    I don't see any way in hell mark Henry wins...

    What's the point? He gets no heat or pops when he enters the ring. That is the WORST possible thing for a wrestler.

    Amazingly Cena is -550 at Bovada which is amazingly low for a match I agree is the sure thing for him.

    The only bet that makes sense to me is Swagger +370.  I think Swagger will win, and then Dolph will cash in on Swagger.  I also belive Ziggler will walk out of Mania with Heavyweight Championship + Tag Titles. 

    -Cena is a LOCK.  Pray he somehow turns heel finally.
    -CM Punk may be worth a small wager for value sake, but Taker's not losing.
    -Shield is a LOCK.
    -Ryback is a LOCK.  Henry is on his way out.  Actually spoke to Henry about it when I met him at MITB PPV.
    -Highly doubt Triple H last match will be losing to Brock Lesnar.  Don't see him losing.

    I have Cena at -550 on Bodog and Rock at +275...

    Is it possible Rock gets put over here and that is the impetus for a Cena heel turn???

    Why would the line drop this much. 

    I feel with  WM at the meadowlands with the fans and such, someone could have leaked something and now the Rock is keeping the belt. 

    Who wants Cena to go over anyway as a face as WM goes off the air???  12-1 to a little over 2-1 for Rock is disturbing for a Cena bet even with much better odds (that can only be parlayed anyway because they are way too high).

    It's pretty hilarious because he's supposed to be this Latin heartthrob who can ballroom dance and he really looks like a greasy Jersey shore guy who needs a little dental work. 

    At least teach the guy how to tango dance after he's done with his 5 min matches...it'll make his character more believable ...
