WrestleMania XXIV: Randy Orton vs. John Cena vs. Triple H

[D.J.]

Even tho i love hhh and cena (no homo), i really think randy orton should retain the title in this match. i love orton too (no homo again lol) and i think that he has been a great champion, though he has look a little weak @ times. every one knows that cena will become wwe champion again sometime this year, and that hhh can just about get the title when ever he wants or have who ever he wants to be champion become champion. Orton has come a long way since early 2007 when he was in the "doghouse." I think it would be a great and surprising ending to what i think will be a great Wrestlemania 24.

I still dont know whos going to win it and it makes me more excited, everyone has got a chance. Firstly lets start with Randy Orton he is definetly the outsider but still has a shock chance of winning, Next Triple HHH who does win would be 12 time champion and prob at the moment is the front runner but just and also hasnt won at wrestlemania for quite a long time, and finally John Cena who is undefeated at wrestlemania so its very hard to predict.

Prediction up to now:

Triple HHH wins and loses at summerslam
John cena wins then the next night on raw faces Randy orton in his rematch clause and wins that then the mitb winner cashes in, new champion maybe Kennedy or MVP, that way cena keeps his streak and maybe get a few fans of his back.

Keep posting your predictions please !!!

Hi everyone. I am a new poster, so please go easy on me. With the inevitable winner if MitB gone, you have to wonder if the booking of the ME changed. I never had a very good idea of who would win, which has added to the excitement.

I had assumed that HHH would win and turn, and Hardy would challenge him soon. However, with two months of Hardy out, you would think that Orton might retain and hold on until Hardy comes back. HHH can win early summer and then turn. And then the storyline gets expedited for Hardy to win at SummerSlam from a heel HHH. Of course this is all assuming Hardy is still that over and not in too much trouble by then.

can you say MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR KENNNEDYYYYYYYYYY yea couple weeks ago someone said this terrific idea and now ive bin hearing it a bunch of times have kennedy win the mtb match have either cena/or trips win the title and out comes kennedy who promised us he would cash in his briefcase at wm 24 and what do you know kennedy comes out and wins and that is where kennedy could show us if he is actually good or overated but if wwe isent smart enough to do that they will have trips win and build up towards trips vs cena part 2 yada yada yada and orton is the forgotten champion unfourtantley w/e this match will be decent.....SUPPPPAFLLYYYYYY OUT

Hey guys, I'm new to this forum but a life long fan.

At this point I think Orton should win the match and I think HHH will win. I liked how they played Orton as the face on Raw and made him look a lot stronger than his normal weasely ways. This should be an epic match.

 

[FromTheSouth]

I disagree with how they played Orton as strong. We all know Cena is superman, but Orton's only redeeming quality is that he sells for everyone. I think they may have promoted the main event at the expense of burying the entire mid and under card.

 

[a7xoff]

Hmm after this weeks Raw I thought to myself. Wow they went a week without making Orton look weak in one way or another. He pretty much cleaned house in the main event along with Cena. However after the show there was a video on WWE.com where Cena tried to shake Orton's hand, Orton went for an RKO, but got FUed. So after seeing that I further solidify my statement that Orton will sadly not be retaining as throughout this whole title reign, he's pretty much been a slapping dummy. However I no longer expect to see Cena walk out the winner... Why? Cause I'm thinking we'll see a rematch of this, possibly same match at Backlash, and after that HHH go heel and Cena chase.

 

[Cage917r]

Orton deserves to retain the title, but he wont be doing it. The problem with Orton he is a better challenger than a champion, whenever he is a heel champ, he is made to look like a wimp, he looks weak which is why he wont be going over HHH and Cena. I think HHH is going to win, do I want it to happen? NO. I am sick of HHH, he is not as good as some people say he is, I would rather have him doing funny stuff in DX, he is better in that role. I dont think he is a real good heel either, I know that is were they are going with him down the road, another reason I dont want him to win. Cena might win, I mean he won the rumble, but I think he also needs to be in fueds away from the title for a while. Sadly Orton will get pinned by one of them, probably HHH, the only good thing would be Orton could become the saddistic challenger again. So sadly HHH will probably win and Orton has no chance, even though he should.

Great point. The last time somebody won the Rumble and didn't win the title was 2000 when The Rock won the Rumble and HHH retained the title in the fatal 4 way. Mania 15, Mcmahon won the rumble and Austin beat him at St. Valentine's Day Massacre to get his shot back. It also happened at Mania 13, Austin won the rumble that year and wasn't in the title match and at Mania 11, HBK won the rumble but lost to Diesel at Mania. Still, it hasn't happened in almost ten years. Then again, Cena isn't going in as the "Rumble Winner." that was No Way Out.

Good point and thanks for telling me, i no cause cena still won at no way out anyway,

And as much as cena is my favourite i dont like the fact that he didnt have his title match at mania he had it at nwo, but then again it wasnt his choice.

Do you think that if cena wouldnt of been in the rumble triple hhh would of won?

I think they would've gone with what the "original plan" was, which was to have Undertaker win it. Atleast, that's what we thought the "original plan" was, unless they knew Cena was coming back for a while.

Yeah, so 'Taker would win that, challenge Edge, and they'd have 2 months to build up the fight - which should be great. I'm not too thrilled how it's being built up, maybe they feel rushed. I would have rather have it this way.

Then, presuming Cena is sidelined, HHH wins elimination chamber, challenges Orton. HHH-Orton at Wrestlemania.

I feel that HHH would only win the rumble if Cena was coming back at NWO, where he'd win the EC match, and then they'd have a triple threat like they have now (or a Cena-HHH).

 

[RKO Orton]

For the record, Cena cashed in his WrestleMania shot at No Way Out. He made that decision, he wanted the title. He won by DQ, so he obviously didn't get the title.

I believe the Undertaker would have won, just to set up the feud between Edge-Undertaker. Triple H would have won the Elimination Chamber to set up the feud between Randy Orton-Triple H.

 

[havertkingofkings619]

I'm so pumed up for this match because i really think tht the King of Kings will return to his thrown and regin as WWE Champion, does anybody think tht hunter would make an good GM I do maybe raw should do something good and have triple H be the active GM and also be an wrestler at the same time but i really want to see triple h win cause if cena does god know how long he'll have tht damn belt and if orton wins lets face it he's going to be the new cena and regin and regin and it will get boring, so Go HHH

 

[Draven Filth]

hhh is obviously gonna win, think about it all the hype since be4 the royal rumble, then when jh was clearly more over the hhh, all they could talk about was that fact that hhh may reclaim his thrown at wm. If hhh dosent win ill be shocked.

 

[k-doggrko]

I think this match should be off the hook.The hype & starpower going into this match is great.I think Triple h will walk out the citrus bowl the WWE champion & i think this match should be one of the best of the night.

I think the orginal plan was for Batista to win the Royal Rumble transfer to RAW and have an Evolution 3 way against Orton and Triple H. Triple H and Batista would of then fought to a draw in a number 1 contenders match. Randy Orton would have successfully defended his title in an elimination chamber against Jeff Hardy, Shawn Michales, Chris Jericho, Umaga and JBL. In the Smackdown! chamber Batista would have been replaced by Kane. Does anyone else think this is more interesting than how it actullay turned out?

 

[Chevy88]

bottom line is wwe plans change almost every minute of evry day I am done trying to guess I believe orton should retain so his title reign is validated but my honest opinion is he will not retain but I am done trying to predict what will happen we will all find out in 6 days

yes that is much more interesting and less predictable and therefore more entertaining

 

[mike2456]

On this weeks raw that just passed, they made randy orton look like a fool, his tag team partners all left him alone, big show choke slammed him, he almost got pedigreed, he was locked in da stfu for like 5 second, he almost got da figure 4 from hbk, but he got it from flair and he was made to tap out and this all happened in less then a minute....but usually whoever ends up looking like a fool the raw b4 a big ppv, ends up winning the main event, I hope this is still the routine wwe uses..GO ORTON shock us

 

[ChainGangSoldier24]

Boring. But better than another HHH vs. Cena or Orton vs. Cean match. HHH and Cena had a boring match two years ago at Mania, and Orton vs. Cena was a feud from last summer. While it would have made an ok Mania main event, it's being promoted tonight at NWO.

I'm sure it'll be fine. But I'm not a fan of any of them, so I could easily skip this match.

You know i am agreeing with the whole this match will probably be not the best out there. Basically like u have stated all they are doing is packing 3 diffrent rivalries into on match, Cena vs orton, Cena Vs hunter, and hunter vs orton. This match should be pretty good, with the outcome being that orton does not have that title anymore, unless he tryes to pull off a dq, which would really piss me off, but i could see that happening. But saying that Cena Vs HHH was boring......What is next that the rock vs hogan was boring or that Hogan vs andre was a complete shitty match that is BS!!!!!!!!!!!! THat was a pretty good match, not anythign compared to the other two i said but it was a really good match, along with last years witch was history making.[/QUOTE]



Randy Orton can't get DQ'd at Mania, Triple Threat matches are no DQ matches now days. He can use weapons, low blows etc, but he can't get DQ'd, plus WWE wouldn't allow that to happen in a mania mainevent anywayz.

YES, Cena cashed in his title opportunity via his rumble win at No Way Out, BUT, you are forgetting something my friend. Rey Mysterio did the same thing 2 years ago. He won the Royal Rumble, put his title shot up for grabs against Orton and lost. Orton won the opportunity to face Angle at mania 22 BUT, because Rey won the rumble, he found a way back into the match and what happened at mania 22? Rey Mysterio walked out the new World Heavyweight Champion. To me this is all Deja Vu. Cena won the rumble. Used his opportunity against orton, won via dq, didn't win the title. Found a way back into the match, and now he is going for the title he never lost at WrestleMania. Smells like a cena victory to me.

He Won The Rumble.
He never lost the title in his last reign.
He is undefeated at Wrestlemania.
Some needs to take taker's place as Mania's top dog when taker retires.
Edge can't be that man, cuz he will lose to taker at mania 24.
John Cena is Vince's Goldenboy of the WWE.
Cena is future.
Love him or hate him, He brings ratings n sells merch.
He is the hottest superstar to date (meaning he gets loud pops all the time, more then anyone, whether it it be boo's or cheer's, he lights up the crowd which is what WWE likes)
He is the most talked about superstar today (fans love him, haters hate him, both types speak of him ALOT)

Everything is in place for a cena victory. Afterall. Cena is the man who will be reeling in money for the McMahon/Helmsly family after H retires.

 

[Captain Bean]

this could go any way really. cena never lost the belt, he won the rumble, tore his pec bla bla bla...but hes 4-0 at WM and hes WWE top guy at the moment so will vince really want him losing i could also see cena turning heel by winning it like austin at WM17? HHH hasnt had the blet for a while and i can see him turning heel if he won.

however im personally gunning for orton... this guy is an awesome heel and i hope he wins cleanly, maybe cena FUs HHH, about to pin him wen orton RKOS cena for the pin....that would be great. he holds it until backlash then it swaps hands but he doesnt leave the title picture.

this match in a ridiculous way reminds me of armageddon 2000, besides the hell in a cell and 6 man bit. in 2000 no one expected angle to retain.. it could have gone to austin HHH the Rock, undertaker or rikishi (but unlikly rikishi) and yet angle retained against the odds. hopefuli orton will do likewise

any thoughts??

That was completely different. Cena cashed in his shot against the Champion. That was his title match garaunteed by the rumble. Mysterio put his shot at mania on the line. He didn't cash in his title match. Cena is garaunteed his spot in MITB because he beat Orton on Raw.

 

[mqa86]

yes this match is boring, cena is too big now, so we know that he is gona win, and what makes it more shitty is that the guy cant wrestle (the only cool move he had is the new flying move, i dont really remember the name)

is improbable that orton win this match, even when that would be the best. he can wrestle, he got cruiserweight moves potential, his gimmick would improve ("i beat the game, i destroy the rumble winner) and would give him the bases of a huge carreer ahas a better heel.

i wont even bother to say hhh, i respect what the man does in the ring, but if he wouldnt been fucking the boss daughter he wouldnt been in this match, period. he is a good wrestler but enough is enough, you wanna make a ric flair of him?

 

[Canuckj]

First of all I have to correct what ChainGangSoldier24 said. Vince McMahon won Royal Rumble 99 but gave it up the next night on raw. Then HBK showed up on the titantron and said because vince gave up his right for a title shot it goes to the runner-up which was SCSA. Then Austin challenged Vince to a cage match at the next PPV putting his mania title shot on the line. Austin won the match when big show through him into the cage and it broke apart getting him the win. He never got his shot back at the ppv, he defended it at the ppv. HBK did the same thing in 1996 putting his title shot on the line at the ppv against Owen Hart and HBk won that match.

Anyways getting back on topic I'm looking forward to this triple threat match. I see HHH winning the title back and keeping it until Cena is filming the movie he is currently working on. Then him and HHH will feud full-time with Cena eventually winning back the title and keeping it for probably more than a year AGAIN unless he's injured or somebody steps up to truly take Cena's place.

HHH hasn't had a serious championship run since before mania 21, he's vinces son-in-law and its his time.

 

[jrcongine]

The only way I would even be excited in this main event is if the winner of the Money in the Bank comes in and wins the title at the end of the ppv. I think that would be shock and don't care who wins as long as its not one of these three. And I sometimes can be Triple H mark. I just think its time for for GD change.
