Our staff knocks their heads together to figure out who the winners and losers of WrestleMania 30 will be!
Whatever the hell that means!
The past fewWrestleManiashavent been all that great.
The lastRoyal Rumbleended with the would-be top star getting booed into oblivion.
The last PPV ended with disgusted apathy for the heel victory rather than passionate hatred.
Despite all that,WrestleMania XXXseems like its going to be a pretty happening show.
WWEs Superman will meet his own Darkseid.
30 men will battle over the honor of the legendary Andre the Giant.
Who will win and who will lose?
The Wrestle Geeks unite to figure it out.
The Real Americans (Cesaro and Jack Swagger) vs. Rybaxel (Ryback and Curtis Axel) vs. Expect The Usos to retain because really, who else could win?
Cesaro will giant swing El Torito, and thats no bull.
Gavin Jasper:This could be the sleeper match of the night.
I like everyone in this match and adding in Los Matadores at the last minute is a great call.
Its not even about the Usos winning, but the Real Americans losing and finally splitting.
But Ryback and Axel need something to help boost them, too, because they are really stale.
But since this is the pre-show match forWrestleMania XXX, Im going with the current holders, The Usos.
The Shield need to crush someone as faces and Kane and the New Age Outlaws are a perfect target.
Theyre unlikeable and each begging to be Superman Punched into oblivion.
How strange to see Kane among the heel underdogs for once.
Vinny:Watch out for this one, it could be great.
I expect The Shield to dominate early, but Ambrose to turn on his team.
Further teasing the break-up but giving Shield a big Maniawin.
Jesse:Roman Reigns is another guy who is really over right now.
The Shield: Whiskey India November Sierra.
SIERRA HOTEL INDIA ECHO LIMA DELTA SHIELD.
AJ is supposed to be a heel, but the concepts being used are for faces in peril.
AJs only ally betrays her and joins the side of the evil GM.
But the way theyre pushing her, Im going to give this one to Naomi.
Gavin:Man, I dont know.
I guess Ill go with AJ retaining.
AJ will win and probably feud with Tamina until they care enough to make Emma a viable challenger.
Vinny:WithTotal Divasbringing in a new audience,WrestleManiais a perfect place to exploit it.
Tamina probably will turn on AJ and cost her the match, but I dont expect her to win.
This is an opportunity to take the popularity of the E!
Show and create a new threat.
Ill give this one to Naomi.
So someone should win who could use the push.
David:In tribute to Andre, the winner of this contest is going to be a giant.
Ruling out Khali, that leaves Big Show and Mark Henry.
While both are near the end of their careers, Big Show will win this.
HisWrestleManiarecord has been TERRIBLE.
This might be his lastWrestleManiaand what betterWrestleManiamoment can he have than the son of Andre winning a Battle Royal?
After his win, expect either a heartwarming retirement speech or for someone to break the trophy.
So, yeah, Big Show with the win!
I see Ziggler, Big E, and Sin Cara all getting some good spots in before it concludes.
I dont think any of the three will win though.
Here, because its the first, tradition will reign with Big Show.
Gavin:When they first announced this, I immediately thought Big Show.
Then they started pushing him as the obvious winner to the point that itcouldntbe him.
Then I realized that I was barking up the wrong tree.
They care aboutWrestleMania III.
The show where Andre lost spectacularly by getting bodyslammed.
Looking at the roster, Im giving this to Sheamus, the most Hogan-like of competitors.
Sheamus is going to bodyslam Big Show and then throw him out of there.
Then again, perhaps hell do both at the same time!
David:This match isnt about who gets the pin; its about Bray Wyatt breaking Cenas spirit.
Marc:Its Bray Wyatts time.
On paper, the most compelling future Maniamatch would be Undertaker versus Bray Wyatt.
Wyatts journey to that moment begins here as he manages to pin Cena with help from Rowan and Harper.
Sister Abigail will rule this night, follow the buzzards.
Gavin:I so want Wyatt to win this.
Oh, man, do I ever want Bray Wyatt to win this.
Then again, even if John Cena gets the pin, it doesnt exactly mean he truly wins.
Whatever the moral result, Cena isnt jobbing.
Wyatt, on the other hand could be 2014-2015s Neo-Undertaker.
I expect Bray to win clean.
Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar
Marc:This match should be so much more compelling than it is.
WWEs myopic booking of Lesnar has seen him already lose to Cena and Triple H (twice).
Two meaningless losses that render Lesnar impotent against Undertaker who has already beaten HHH atWrestleMania(thrice).
It could have added to build up to this boring match.
And when I call it that, its because we all know Taker will keep The Streak alive.
Storyline wise, theres not really anything here.
His past streak matches have all been againstwrestlers.
the fun of this match is going to be seeing how a match against abrawlergoes.
That said, no way is it going to be Brock Lesnar.
Theres absolutely no reason for it.
The Streak will remain alive.
The only surprise here will be if Sting shows up in the rafters…like let that happen.
Triple HWinner Advances into the Main Event
Gavin:Thank God for wrestling fans.
You guys savedWrestleManiaby letting your voices be heard.
The title match puts things into question over whether or not Bryans win will be a clean one.
Clean or dirty, hes winning and going on to the main event.
Vinny:Ahhhh, the real main event.
I hope to see a total war here, hopefully the longest match on the card.
I think thats the smart thing to do.
But if it doesnt happen, Bryan will win this in one way or another.
Marc:Bryan has to take this one.
Look for Bryan to get beat down and injured but still pull off the plucky babyface win.
David:I see this going one of two ways:
Stephanie McMahon accompanies HHH to the ring.
Either way, Daniel Bryans going to be in the main event.
Win-win-win-win for everyone, but most of all, Daniel Bryan.
Gavin:At any other PPV, I could give this to Batista.
Randy Ortons not even an option.
I told him that he was going to be a huge deal one day.
He kind of rolled his eyes and gave a sarcastic, disbelieving, Yeah, well see about that.
This Sunday, hes going to see that I wasnt fooling.Yes.
The problem here is we have 2 possible scenarios and about 40 actually possible ones.
Who knows who will end up in the main event and what rules they will actually be wrestling under?
