The Miz vs. John Cena at Wrestlemania...

[Souls On Fire]

As I was watching the "Old School" Raw this past week, The Miz made a comment in his promo when replacing himself with Alex Riley in his match. He stated that because the GM never offical sanctioned the match between himself and Cena that Cena would have to wait untill Wrestlemania to face The Miz for the title.

Did The Miz spoil one of the main events for the upcoming Wrestlemania? With Survivor Series, TLC, Royal Rumble, and the Elimination Chamber ( sorry if there is another ppv I am forgetting) all taking place before Wrestlemania why would The Miz mention that Cena wouldn't get to face him until then?

Now there have been plenty of rumors involving where John Cena will be at come Wrestlemania time. The possibility of him turning heel and facing the Undertaker has been widely thought of as well as him staying a face and taking on Wade Barrett to put an end to the current ongoing storyline. However much discussion hasn't taken place on where The Miz will be at that point. He has dropped the U.S. Title and since hasn't been to involved in any storyline which would leave myself to believe that his cashing in of the M.I.T.B. contract may be close at hand.

So is this seen as a possibilty? How would it be booked? Were does it leave the other Superstars in the WWE title picture right now?

-----------------------------------------------------------

After the attack on Orton at the end of the big tag match last week on Raw and the involvement at the beginning of this weeks Raw between Orton and The Miz. I believe that ultimately The Miz is going to cash in on Orton and hence winning the title. Now this is obviously going to be at point where Orton is beaten down and easy pickings for The Miz. This isn't to say that Wade Barrett will or won't be victorious at Survivor Series, as mentioned earlier there are still plenty of ppv's between now and Wrestlemania.

I would like to see a returning Chris Jericho take out Orton for punting him in the head which in turn sets up the oppurtunity for Orton to be easy pickings for The Miz. In the meantime the ongoing Orton, Barrett, Cena feud still playing out this would ultimately affect Cena in a way, much like The Miz made apparent on Raw which would ultimatley lead the way to get the two of them in the ring at Wrestlemania.

In working Wade Barrett out of the situation to free Cena up from the Nexus storyline there can be a match between the two of them in which the loser must leave Raw. In the end Barrett would fall to Cena and be forced to head to Smackdown, leaving Cena freed up from his ties to The Nexus and heading after The Miz for screwing him over previously....possibly as early as Survivor Series this Sunday.

Coming out of these you have the potentiol for three big matches to take place at the grandest stage of them all...

John Cena vs. The Miz

Randy Orton vs. Chris Jericho

Wade Barrett vs. The Undertaker ( not written about because in this scenario it is to get the Cena Barrett storyline over with, but a possibilty due to Nexus's interference in the Buried Alive match)

What do you think? Can you see any of this taking place or have theories of your own that can see this match taking place at Wrestlemania?

That's an interesting theory. I did hear him say that, and if he did, then it was very stupid of him to do that. I would hope that creative didn't tell him to spoil the WrestleMania main event.

I don't know. It's a very likely scenario. Why do you think that Chris Jericho will be back? I think that a better question is: What will Orton be doing at WM if Jericho isn't back?

You talked about Miz and Orton teasing a future feud on Raw. However, it can be argued that Orton and Cena did the same, especially with the fans chanting, "Let them fight!". To be honest, I think that it would be better to hold off on Miz winning the title until WM after he cashes in on the winner of Orton vs. Cena. This would make Miz seem smart, and it would be alot cleaner than him cashing on Barret or Orton before WM.

Maybe it is just me? I don't want to see SuperCena win again at WM, and that is what will happen if it's Miz vs. Cena.

I wouldn't be reading too much into what miz said about wrestlemania. His aim is to cash in money in the bank, become champ and main event wrestlemania. With cena being the top guy in the company he's just stating that the only way Cena will face him is to challenge him for his title and where best to do it than mania. He hasn't revealed anything, it's in his characters nature to assume he'll be main eventing mania and it's highflying unlikely he, cena or anyone else even knows what's planned for them at mania, I'd hazard a guess that even the writers don't know because then mania build probably hasn't started yet. Unless of course you're right about the Barret/taker match which I do see happening.

Miz is close but not there yet, a rumble win would be epic and would do it but already being in possession of the briefcase means it would seem a waste to give him another title shot. In my ideal situation he cashes in at the rumble, loses then win the rumble in a typical heel fashion.

That way I see miz vs cena/orton at mania.

 

[Mr. Artistic guy]

Nah. WWE makes all sorts of mistakes but revealin a main event to wrestlemania wouldn't be one of them. It may well happen, but don't assume it's set in stone. I think miz is just suggesting he wants to cash in his MITB so by mania he will be champ and obviously first guy in line to face him will be cena. But that isn't insinuating anything we don't already know.

 

[Special K]

Here is my prediction on what goes down this Sunday at Survivor Series:

-Cena makes sure that Barrett wins the match (will set up a future Cena v. Orton fued);
-Cena FU's Barrett after raising his hand and leaves the ring -- he is no longer a member of Nexus;
-Miz's music hits and he covers Barrett for the 1-2-3 to become the new champ;

Thoughts? Is this a realistic/likely finish to the match this Sunday? I don't think they want to put the belt on Barrett yet...

 

[LSN80]

I dont think he spoiled anything, honestly. I dont think that WWE has mapped out entirely their plans for Wrestlemania, so how could Miz spoil them? Often times, the wrestlers dont know whats going to happen until shortly before the PPV itself, so it's an awful stretch to see that Miz "spoiled" the Wrestlemania main event.

He likely was being in character, which fiots him perfectly. Character wise, he believes he'll be headlining Mania. Who is usually wrestling for the title at Wrestlemania? John Cena. So it was likely no more then a logical promo of Miz being haughty about believing that he'll be the one headlining.

So is this seen as a possibilty?

Anything is possible, I guess. The question that needs to be asked is "Is Miz enough of a drawing power that he can walk into Wrestlemania as the champion?" Right now, I would say no, but that's just my own personal opinion. I could see him in some sort of grudge match, possibly even against a John Cena.

How would it be booked?

If he IS the champion heading into Wrestlemania, my guess is he'll have held onto the MITB briefcase for longer then most of us think. I think Barrett wins the title Sunday, and walks out of Survivor Series with it. He defeats Orton in a chair match at TLC, and Cena wins a no. 1 contender match at the same PPV. Cena wins the title from Barrett at the Rumble, and what I would do is this.

Id put Miz IN the Elimination Chamber, having him be eliminated early. However, he'ld still hold the briefcase, and would return AFTER the match, and cash in on the champion, Cena. This would set up Cena for the rematch at Wrestlemania, with Cena winning the title back.

Were does it leave the other Superstars in the WWE title picture right now?

That's a good question. But Orton was nowhere near the main event last year at Wrestlemania. Neither was Sheamus. Wade Barrett was in Season 1 of NXT. Both Orton and Sheamus were in grudge matches last year, whose to say that won't be again? It could be Orton vs Jericho, and Sheamus vs HHH again.

Likely though, what I see happening is us winding up with Orton vs Cena at Wrestlemania, as this is the money match.

Miz said that Cena would have to wait to face him at Wrestlemania because this is one of the major threats that Barrett has been using against Cena. Barrett told John that if he doesn't crown him WWE Champion that he will be fired and no longer get to star at a Wrestlemania again which Cena has stated before is what he lives for. So Miz played off of that to make himself more into the annoying ass that he is (kayfabe wise). I think this is just a stronger part of the Nexus/Cena storyline to persuade Cena to give Nexus the title than it is got to do with making matches for Wrestlemania.

 

[Mr. Perfect/Ziggler Fan]

No spoilers here. The OP was definitely reading way too much into the statement. Miz is simply just saying that he is going to main event Wrestlemania, as he may very will do. He is getting more and more entertaining. Just imagine if he beat someone for the title at WM, that would be gigantic for his career.

So to reiterate what others have already said, no, he didn't spoil anything. It's just a heel being cocky. And he's doing a damn good job at it.
