I love the Taker v Lesner idea by King Micheal up top.....But I think it will be something to do with the rock or Cena as all the build up is behind them right now. So I would say The Rock v The Miz.....you still laughing....ok or maybe The Rock v Cena 2, But I would like Undertaker to be making a speech and Lesner comes out or someone to challenge him a year ahead and Taker to retire in the main event of mania 29 like he deserves.
 
*sigh*...The Rock has already agreed to Wrestle at Wrestlemania 29. Those saying he will leave again after Wrestlemania 28 and never return are foolish.

CM Punk vs Stone Cold - an obvious choice. Seeds planted once or twice and Austin open to ideas. I think a lot depends on location though. If in Texas then yes please, but they may even hold off until Wrestlemania 30 to have this.

Brock Lesnar vs The Undertaker - Brock loves his money and if the money is right he would probably return for a 1 off and have a go at ending the streak.

I dont think The Rock will 'Main Event' again next year given this one is built around him. He will probably have a filler match like he did at Wrestlemania 20 with Foley/Batista/Flair/Orton. I suppose a lot depends on if Austin is at the event. He will want the limelight and having Rock vs Orton or Rock vs Cena down the card would be silly. Maybe The Rock vs Triple H?
 
This will be moved to the All Future WM Dis. Thread. Fair Warning.

The Rock vs. John Cena vs. Randy Orton just looks damn good on paper.

I agree that CM Punk vs. D.Bryan at Mania would be good, but it isn't no main event.


My Pick is The Rock vs. The Undertaker. This is a match worthy of being Takers last. I'm sure the WWE could come up wit something to keep us interested.
 
This is SOOOOOOOO fuckin stupid. What in God's name is the "E" thinking.

1) This whole 'year build up' to Cena-Rock was nauseating. If you announced the match in Jan 2012, it would have still got you the same buys.

2) HELLO.............INJURIES? Why are you risking putting egg on your face.

3) Why does Austin-Punk (if it happens) have to be heel vs face? Why can't it just be two polarizing personalities putting on the best match they can and just sit back and enjoy?

Just let the fuckin year play itself out Senile Vince/Preperation H/Stephanie the Dolt.

I really like this idea. These two legends have never met at Wrestlemania and it would be so easy to hype this match. The Rock can talk about all the other wrestlers that have failed to beat the Undertaker but that Undertaker never faced him, that's why the streak is still intact. Also, since Taker doesn't wrestle a full schedule (same as Rock), this match wouldn't be too hard on either guy's schedule.

As much as I think WWE wants to do Cena vs. Undertaker, do they really want Cena not involved in the title picture, two wrestlemanias in a row? We know Undertaker won't have the belt and since he's not going to lose, then we know Cena won't have the belt going into that match.


Also, IMO, there's a high likelihood that The Rock will be inducted into the Hall of Fame prior to WM 29, so that builds on the match even more as The Rock can say the last thing he needs to accomplish in WWE is to end the streak.


Those are just a couple things to think about.

Honestly, what's the point? When they announced The Rock vs. John Cena right after Wrestlemania 27, I was excited. We get to see The Rock and John Cena go at eachother for a year...but no. The Rock "Brought It" via Satellite 90% of the time, you have twitter war, and then Cena was thrown into random fueds making me forget about Cena vs. The Rock until the commentators or promos would remind me. It was a horrible year, and I don't want to have to go through that again. Also, the RR winner, and the other main event champions won't have anything built around them, as Vince will be focused on just the real "Main Event"
 
Undisputed Championship-Jericho vs CM Punk vs D. Bryan(I actually wanted to see this match this year, and wanted to Sheamus to go after the Streak)

Anyway....
WWE Champ.- CM Punk vs Wade Barrett

WHC- C. Jericho vs R. Orton

TagChamp-Kane n Ryder(Hell Ryders) vs Alberto n Hunico/Camacho(the

Mexican mafia) vs Ted Dibise n Ontunga(Money Inc 2.0)

Int or US- R-Truth vs Sheamus vs Cody Rhodes vs Big Show vs D. Bryan vs Christian(TLC)

John Cena vs Undertaker


Just wishful thinking...............
Austin vs Cena

Rock vs HBK

Undertaker and Kane vs HHH and HBK(taker and Kane lose, so does that end the streak storyline)
or Undertaker vs HBK vs HHH(but taker doesnt get pined nor does he win, doest that end the streak storyline)

there are so many possiblities, but the wwe will f' it up.
 
Austin V Randy Orton
Orton would have to be the sick sidistic heel he was a couple years back

Rock V The Miz
I know some aint fans of the miz but he is the future and would be a good match to elevate him

CM Punk V D Bryan
Amazing Show Stealer of a match something we all want to see bell to bell

Lesnar V Taker
Big Money For WWE & Brock

Main Matchs that come to mind
 
If Taker wrestles on WM29, Then i'll guarantee you he's going to be there at WM 30. it would be stupid think otherwise.

As for WM 29, i'd much rather see Taker go against Cena, or Jericho. I'm still a huge fan of the attitude era. But I can't see Taker vs Austin coming out and being a match i will remember when i think of Taker.

I think Taker vs Cena would draw a lot more than Taker vs Austin aswell. Austin is without a doubt the biggest and most over wrestler the WWE has ever had. But i don't think many people nowadays get as excited to see him like they do the Rock.

So if they want Taker in the main event, i would say go with Taker vs Cena. If not, Taker vs Jericho.
 
Stone Cold vs Undertaker would be awsome but its not going to happen i dont think. I think it will be either Brock Lesnar or Sting. Lesnar would be the logic answer. and no one is going to end the streak. it will never happen.

I think Stone Cold could push the young guys better than Taker can. So i say next year Stone Cold vs CM punk/or Miz. Undertaker vs lesnar. The Rock vs Cena part2 with a crazy stipulation.
 
As a kid who grew up idolizing Stone Cold, it would be great to see Austin in the ring again, and a match with Taker would do me fine, but i still feel the streak should end (if it is going to end) by a modern day star. Cena, Orton, Punk, or even a guy like Barrett if he's pushed enough after his injury return. Personally i don't think the streak should ever end, but Taker is old school and will want to pass the torch on.
 
They gotta stop announcing WM main events one year in advance. They were lucky Cena and Rock haven't got hurt but if it involves Undertaker or Austin next year, there's definitely a high chance they will be plagued with injury, fucking up the WM main event.
anyway my card would go like this

beth vs nattie vs kharma
miz vs jericho
Lesnar vs cena
Orton vs Taker
Cm Punk vs Stone Cold
rey mysterio vs evan bourne
wwe title- daniel bryan vs ziggler
my top dream match- rock vs hbk
 
If The Rock is back to fulfill his promise to fans which he made when he inducted his father and grandfather in WWE Hall of Fame 2008, then he is fulfilling one out of the 2 promises, a match against John Cena. The other promised match is against Stone Cold Steve Austin.

So, if he is back for those two matches, then, most probably WM29 would have Stone Cold vs The Rock match or, Stone Cold being the guest refree which The Rock is going against.

But I would go for The Rock vs Stone Coldbeing the Main Event match at WM29.
 
CM Punk vs Steve Austin (Austin said himself if he had 1 match left it would be against Punk)
Sheamus vs Wade Barret(for either the WHC or WWE title)
D Bryan vs Shawn Michaels(teacher vs student)
Rock vs Cena (my prediction is Rock wins WM28, Cena wins Summer Slam going 1-1 and this being the tie breaker)
Undertaker vs Sting (he should be out of his TNA contract by that time and it's the only HUGE payday Sting has left)
Randy Orton vs Dolph Ziggler(for either the WHC or WWE title this accomplishes 2 things 1 it gives Orton something relevant to do. 2 putting one of the 2 big belts on Ziggler increases his card standing)
 
wow, cant believe nobody has said this match im goin to say. WM29 should be headlined by..

The Rock Vs. CM Punk. The Rock has been "THE MAN" from what he says because he has beat all the great ones. CM Punk says hes "The Best In The World" and I think he may be in this age of wrestling. Both Rock and Punk love to tear people up on the mic when cuttin promos. Nobody has been better at droppin "pipe bombs" recently than Punk. The Rock would have fun rippin on CM Punk for his straight edge lifestyle while Punk would have lots to rip on Rock for him leaving and saying hes the great one when hes not really in WWE anymore. Theres lots more each of them can cut promos to eachother about.

Most likely The Rock will not lose to Cena because hes "The Great One". The Rock should come back to WM29 and face CM Punk and have Punk go over in this match. Call it a passing of the tourch having Rock lose to someone who deserves the recognition of being a major player for those who still think he isnt. After WM28 have Rock coming out as heel cuttin a promo how he knew he'd beat Cena and rip on the fans how some didnt fully support Rock and supported Cena still for their match. Have Rock go on about how theres nobody else for him to beat them CM Punk comes out and drops a pipe bomb on Rock to kick off their fued that leads to WM 29. Then it goes on from there.

I would also co-main event WM29 with Undertaker Vs Sting if sting finally grows some balls to face taker. I'd have it end in a draw actually so neither go down as loser and the streak doesnt get broken.
 
Remember, something like this would also stretch the WWE's stage and film crew over three stadiums, which already require extra personnel. The added logistical cost alone would prevent a project like this from ever happening, even though it's feasible in theory.
 
This was an idea that Vince thought of when WrestleMania was still in it's nanscent phases. He was trying to make WrestleMania a big deal. WM 1 was already a big event and Vince wanted something to top that. Hence, you have this idea of having Mania in three different cities. Today, WrestleMania has become a very big deal and it has become that because WWE insists on putting the best card that they can possibly muster forth at WrestleMania. That has become the format of WrestleMania. It is the "Showcase of the Immortals" and something that does not need to be tinkered with. Also, I do not think it is even possible to make WrestleMania any bigger.

However, this is something that could work for a smaller PPV. One of the factors that hindered this card was the lack of stars. I mean you had to choose between Hogan main eventing in one of the cities versus someone else and at that point there was no bigger name than Hogan. Today you have guys like Cena, Orton, Punk, Undertaker and Triple H. All of them are somewhat on the same level and more importantly they have their own distinct fanbases. Fans of Punk may not be fans of Cena or Orton. Fans of Orton may not be HHH fans. Looking just in terms of the number of choices that are available today, it sounds like a success.

Yes, I understand that there might be practical problems but it is worth a shot for say something like Extreme Rules or Money In the Bank. The individual main event matches would be a bigger deal than they would have been in a crowded card. Take MITB 2011 for example. The focus was on Cena and Punk and rightly so but matches like the Smackdown MITB and even Orton/ Christian got overshadowed. That would not have happened in a multi city format. It might also increase the replayability factor of these PPV's as these PPV's won't be watched in entirety by the people who are attending the PPV in only one of the cities. Hence they would buy the DVD's of these events when it comes out.
 
I certainly hope they don't do this as Wrestlemania 2 was a piss poor event, it was just a mess all around.

I know on paper it may sound like a good idea, selling out 3 arena's for one event but in order to pull that off you need to have 3 solid cards for each place and that's very difficult to do. Especially if each place only gets an hour you pretty much have to deliver a good match every single time. You almost guarantee one city is gonna get shafted and the WWE's current roster isn't strong enough to pull off such a thing.

It worked for Starrcade '85 but they had one hell of a roster to pull off that and 2 main events in each venue that people wanted to see. You had Magnum T.A vs. Tully in an I quit match and Flair vs. Dusty, both are marquee matches people would pay to see not to mention how deep their roster was at the time.

All in all WWE doesn't have the roster to pull this off and I can't see it doing anything but fall flat.
 
I don't think it would work for another WrestleMania event, or any event since there can be budget issues booking 3 places for one day. Also, there isn't enough star power to draw 3 arenas at once.
 
Now since Brock isn't going to be on this year's card there was talk of bringing him in for next year's Mania. with that being said i read on another site that WWE plans to have Brock as an opponent for The Undertaker next year, which to me would be nice given their history during Lesnar's time in WWE. On the flipside i read on here that The Rock "teased" a match with Lesnar next year, this too would be a nice match given The Rock and Lesnar's WWE persona's.
Either way both matches would be huge draws, given the participants but i would like to hear your opinions on which match you would prefer to see on the grandest stage of them all.
Me personally would like to see Taker vs Lesnar since he would come off as a legitimate threat to the streak. Lesnar could go on to say he destroyed Taker during his WWE run and now plans to end his streak, etc., etc. If creative really tried it could be a really good feud given their '03 feuds.
A feud with The Rock would also be good since Lesnar won his first WWE title from The Rock at Summerslam and Rock would need to beat him in order to "be the best" leading to a WM clash
 
A feud between Taker & Lesnar heading into WM 29 has an epic feel to it and there's a decent amount of history WWE can draw upon in order to give the idea that The Streak is in jeopardy. Or, I should say, if Taker leaves WM 28 with The Streak intact.

Of all the opponents Taker has had in his WWE career, Lesnar is really the only one that I know of that ultimately got the best of Taker. I have a feeling things would've been evened up, eventually, had Lesnar stayed in WWE but he didn't. Lesnar's clean win over Taker in the HIAC match was a great, competitive match that came down to the wire. It looked like it could go either way but Lesnar came out with the win, a clean win. I think he also beat Taker in a street fight match on either Raw or SD!, but had help from Paul Heyman in scoring the win. It wouldn't take any real effort at all to build Lesnar as the greatest threat in the history of The Streak.

As for a Lesnar vs. Rock match, honestly, it doesn't really interest me that much. For one thing, it'll just feel like two guys who're hot in the mainstream media just showing up for a WM match. Lesnar has been gone for nearly a decade as has The Rock and I'm sure Rock isn't going to be staying around to work even a part time WWE schedule. Because of that, it'll just have the feel of WWE going out and paying a shitload of money for a couple of mercenaries who're just there. I'm sure it'd generate some big buys for the ppv but, for me, there's no real emotional connection to be made in this match. To me, Taker vs. Lesnar feels like a spectacle with a deep story behind it. Rock vs. Lesnar just feels like a spectacle, all style and no substance.

Well said, Taker and Lensar did go through some epic battles during their fued, and the emotional connection towards the match and storyline would dig deeper as opposed to Rock. Lesnar's matches were intense when with The Deadman and i feel as though a WM match between the two could possibly be better then all their past bouts (HIAC, Biker Chain Match,Unforgiven bout) given time to build up. If WWE is smart they should take this ball and run with it. Im sure this would please many fans and give the match an unknown feel as to who would come out on top.
 
Both matches have the quality factor for WrestleMania.

Brock/Taker have so much personal history WWE could sell it; plus Undertaker has never beaten Brock one on one so that's another angle WWE could play.

Where-as Rock/Brock the rematch never occured on PPV (the rematch actually happened in Miami at a house show, Rock won); So Rock/Brock 2 would be pretty epic for Summer Slam, but from a personal note I'd rather see Brock/Taker at WrestleMania and allow Rocky to face someone like Punk or Orton, maybe even the Cena rematch, Brock/Rock II serves no purpose, unless it's simply to get the win back for The Rock.
 
IMO I don't really want either because after Brock's last Wrestlemania I don't think I could trust him to think "Oh the moneys nice lets make this quick and get out of here" and we all end up to a similar match to Lesnar vs Goldberg (Although Taker would put more effort in that Goldberg,as would Rocky.) One man couldn't make a match good but that doesn't mean it wouldn't draw because either match would but IMO it would suck but that's just me.

Sorry man but I can't take any of that comment seriously whatsoever. Your talking about a match were both guys were leaving right after, lets also remember it wasn't on the best of terms either so it was kind of a middle finger to the office.

What your actually saying is Brock would return after all this time away making his legacy and name bigger over in the UFC, return to the WWE, one of the most anticipated returns EVER then do the exact same as his match with Goldberg? The guy has taken many punches to the face and been knocked out many times i'm sure but he's not ******ed or mentally unstable man, it would do his public image no good to screw the fans out of a return so big, he would be hated on by millions. Think about it man.

Anywho back to the OP's question, Lesnar vs Rock does nothing for me personally, in fact as much as i love the rock, the thought of him in another big match at next years mania sounds very boring with the 12 month build up this years match against Cena has had. Lesnar vs Taker though sounds interesting, they have personal beef though so would Lesnar be up for having Taker go over him which is what would probably happen which makes me think it probably won't go down unless they can squash whatever problems they have before hand but Taker is known for being stubborn so who knows, would be good to see though.
