Wrestlemania 28: The Card


Wrestlemania 28: The Card

Randy Orton vs Kane
A newly revamped and and motivated Kane returned complete with a his mask and has been causing destruction ever since, finally homing on Rany Orton as a target. In what seems to be a short and rushed feud, Kane set his sights on Orton with what looked like random attacks. After eventually explaining that during a match last summer, Orton exposed Kane's human side, the Big Red Machine is determined to unleash his demonic monstrous side on the Apex Predator. Orton, however, looks to simply survive the fiery onslaught Kane promises to deliver.

Winning General Manager gains control of both Raw and Smackdown

Team Teddy (Santino Marella (c), Kofi Kingston, R-Truth, The Great Khali, Zack Ryder and Booker T) vs  Team Johnny (David Otunga (c), Drew McIntyre, Mark Henry, Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger and The Miz)
Teddy Long and John Laurinaitis have both been running raw and Smackdown respectively, and have been rubbing certain superstars the wrong way ast the disagree with their methods. After Laurinaitis boldly claimed he should in charge of both, Teddy took exception and their rivalry was born. After the Board stepped in and set a tag match where the winner would be General Manager of both shows, Laurinaitis and Long set about recruiting for their teams to lead them to victory and control of the brands. There can only be one winner, and with a match of this stature, anything can happen.

Divas Tag Match
Beth Phoenix and Eve vs Kelly Kelly and Maria Menounos
It's basically the same as last years Wrestlemania Divas tag match that had Snooki. This time however, it's Maria Menounos in the celebrity spot. Phoenix, as the Divas championship rightly claims that the spotlight should be on her and not Kelly Kelly, and set out with Eve to  ake sure they were getting the attention they feel they deserve. And look to make an example a celebrity hooging heir spotlight in Menonos.

Intercontinental Championship
Cody Rhodes (C) vs Big Show
Holding the IC belt for over 200 days, Cody Rhodes has undergone major changes in the space of a year. From 'Dashing' to the 'Deranged' facing off against Rey Mysterio in a a grudge match in last years Wrestlemania, Cody has stepped up his game and solidified himself as a major threat to anyone he crosses. Whether be it Mysterio, or a legend such as Booker T, or his own brother, Goldust. BUT, he may of overstepped his boundaries when he decided to start mocking a 7 foot tall mean, angry giant who has undergone his own frustrating time. Losing his World championship to Daniel Bryan in just a minute after winning, Show has been unsuccessful mutiple times in his effort to regain what he lost. Cod, however sees this as a moment to humiliate him futher by constantly reminding him of many embarrassing moments Show would rather forget. Memories such as losing to Akebono at WM21 in a sumo match, and being knocked out by Floyd Mayweather at WM24 are amongst the videos Cody keeps embrrasing himw ith. But with his championship on the line, Rhodes may well have awoken an extremely angry giant who is capable of not only beating him, but ending his impressive title reign.

WWE Championship
CM Punk (C) vs Chris Jericho
It's one person who claims to be the Best in the world vs another who claims to b the Best in the world at what he does. Since Jericho returned, he has made it clear that he believes he is the best superstar there is and has gone out of his way to make his feelings clear. Claiming he is the 'original' superstar that everyone copies, he is intent on taking it out on CM Punk. Punk however remains defiant, and looks to retain the championship and shut Jericho up once and for all. There can only be one person who is the 'Best' and these two will battle it out.

World Heavyweight Championship
Daniel Bryan (C) vs Sheamus
Last year, this was the dark match before Wrestlemania 27 started, despite being advertised as a match as part of the PPV. However, this time around, the match is one of the main event matches between the two.
Sheamus winning the 2012 Royal Rumble made im eligible to challenge any champion between Daniel Bryan and CM Punk. After retaining his title in the Elimination Chamber against Barrett, Rhodes, Khali, Big Show, and Santino, we found out that the Celtic Warrior had made his choice. Bryan being the champion capable of 'weasling' his way out of the most difficult situations makes it possible to come out still the champ. But Sheamus being on a destructive hot streak also makes him a strong challenger to take the title away.

Hell in a Cell
Triple H vs The Undertaker (Shawn Michaels as Special Guest Referee)
Two of the greatest superstars ever. And two of the most experienced superstars when it comes to being part of 'Satans Playground'. The third time these two face of at Wrestlemania after their destructive match which saw Undertaker win but suffer a beating resulting in him being carried out on a stretcher. Upon returning, he has been desperate to get a rematch so he can get his defining win. Or as he put it, "Vengeance". HHH, reluctant at first, finally accepted with the condition that they fight inside inside the cell structure. With the streak on the line as usual. this match will not fail to thrill and HHH is more than capable of beating 'Taker. But the question is can he? or will the streak extend to 20-0?

And with Shawan Michaels as Special guest referee, will his grudge aginst the Deadman cost Undertaker the match, or his jealousy over his best friend possibly doing what he couldn't in 2 Wrestlemania's sway his decision. Teasing a possible return match against his fellow DX member hints at him turning on his best friend...

Icon vs Icon
The Rock vs John Cena
Arguably the main event of the night. Besides the inevitable Undertaker Streak match, it is definately the main attraction of Wrestlemania 28. A fantasy match that had been talked about before he match even happened, The Rock and John Cena face off against as two icons who define two different generations and eras. The Rock, representing the attitude era and older generation of fans, whilst John Cena represents the much younger and current generation of fans. Just like Rock vs Hogan from Wrestlemania 18, it will very much captivate the audience, regardless of age or who they are a fan of.
