I hope Brock re-signs and retains so they could do a "Summer of Punk '11" type storyline again, but this time it will be harder to fuck up because of his limited dates.

I don't think I've ever been less interested in a WrestleMania... I'm almost completely indifferent to the card.
About the only thing that interests me is wanting to see how Sting looks in the ring, and what they do with him. I suppose the main event is interesting as at this point pretty much anything could happen outcome wise, but can't say I really care... and the rest of the card is totally "meh"
If a face had the MITB briefcase this would be an ideal year for them to cash it in, as WWE always likes to go out on big face pop. I guess they could have Rollins cash it in and lose... but between Lesnar and Reigns I don't even think they know who will be the face now, much less as the match progresses.

Orton & Rollins lost my interest the night after Randy's return when he joined the authority. I'm curious about Sting. I don't care to see the Undercardtaker. He's used his one match a year coupon for 5 years now. How do u think Cody Rhodes feels about this. Taker vs Bray would be just fine on a Royal Rumble, Summer Slam, or Survivor Series. He didn't have to take Mania time from the guys who work houseshows. The other matches aren't worth individually breaking down.
For me this WrestleMania weekend including NXT & RAW is all about the fans.

Brock over Reigns or a heel Reigns with Heyman beats Brock. Heel Reigns and Heyman could lineup guys for Brock to run through ala Hogan in the 80s with the Heenan Family. Personally, I'd prefer Brock to continue to run roughshod over WWE until they have a guy that is ready.
Sting/HHH should be a good match but I feel like it needs some sort of stipulation. Nothing is at stake. How will Sting beating HHH change anything?
Taker/Wyatt I would love to see Taker lose and Wyatt have a one year reign of terror that only ends when Taker is begged to come back to stop Wyatt. He could be a broken and not so confident old man but comes back to battle Wyatt one more time in his home state and finally beats him to retire. But Taker will probably win and nothing much will happen.
Cena's beating Rusev - I feel they really missed the boat on building this match up. Shame to see Rusev's unbeaten streak sacrificed to a guy who doesn't need it.
Orton/Rollins - again should be a good match but they killed all the momentum with the build. Rollins should go over.
Battle Royal - have zero interest.
IC Ladder match - very little interest. Bryan should win but it'll probably be Stardust because WWE is stupid.
Women's match - have zero interest. Nothing match with no stakes that is barely RAW quality

But Taker will probably win and nothing much will happen. You lost me at Taker being begged to come back. I watch a full year of wrestling for pay offs to storylines. Taker having matches at WrestleMania is robbing that from me. At least with the streak he had a worthy reason to keep returning. Today undertaker is just.. he's just a part-timer (*Shields self from expected negative feedback*)

Guys, I'm legitimately intrigued about whether or not Sting will wrestle in a t-shirt.

I think the IC title and Orton/Rollins have great potential for being a great match but I just don't care and sadly that's my thought for all of Mania this year. Everything has been so badly built and it doesn't come off as special, even Taker this year seems forced rather then a must see.

I will cry if Taker has another bad match.

The build for Grapple Kingdom 1 between Wai Ting and Court Bauer is more developed than any WrestleMania angle this year.

I'm seriously worried about that Taker match. Don't think Bray is a good fit for him. They better rehearse the hell out of that match beforehand, even then it might not be good.

I would have loved to see Luke Harper vs Taker.

The way the card and expectations are I'd rather call this WrestleMania Pause than WrestleMania Play...

The build has, on the whole, been absolute shit yet for some reason I've got more interest in this 'mania than the last few years. I'm confident that in-ring this will be solid for 90% of the card. Sting vs HHH is interesting, so is Brock vs Reigns. The ladder match will be good and I'm intrigued as to what they'll do with Taker.

I'm pretty excited for Wrestlemania because everyone's expectations are so low! I think that the IC title ladder match will be great and there are a lot of interesting things that could happen coming out of Wrestlemania. Of course, I have a more optimistic viewpoint than most, but at least we are getting Rusev in a big match, Sting and HHH will be great, and I am just really interested to see what happens between Taker and Bray, even if the reasons for the match to happen have been less than great.
I would love to see Daniel Bryan will the IC title and turn it into something worthwhile, particularly if Brock keeps the title. It would be great to see Bryan go on fire with the IC title until he gets a shot at Brock for the WWE title. I think the WWE is willing to take some risks with this Wrestlemania and that's great, but we will see if it actually makes for an interesting 2015-16 of Wrestling till the next one.
