I think WWE will risk half of the show by promoting the youth, but then also put in something that will steal the show. Guys like Barrett and Miz will make the show because for this year they have been pushed the most of anyone. Miz went from a little jerk who ran his mouth and couldn't wrestle now to someone who still runs his mouth but sells his character so well, and someone who has improved vastly inside the ring.
Miz should and will get to Wrestlemania, but the main event, no. I don't want to see Miz Vs Orton as our main event or even Miz Vs Cena which we have seen many times before and never was it a Mania worthy match. If Undertaker is fit to return then WWE NEED to take the big jump and risk it.
Have Cena main event with Taker because the outcome may be inevitible, but the build up would be immense. The match itself would not be amazing for wrestling, because Taker is older and nowhere near as good as he once was, and Cena isn't the best but he's the entertainment factor. It has the ability to steal the show though and go down in history because as you said, it's never been done before.
To draw sales for tickets and PPV buys, WWE have to step into the unknown and do something never been done before. Taker Vs Cena is one of those things and I think it's worth the risk. Also as you said WWE could draw more sales if a big name was announced.
Someone like The Rock, Stone Cold, anyone like that would draw fans and ticket sales because it's a once in a lifetime chance to see those guys since they don't appear every week anymore. All in all, I am not surprised that Wrestlemania hasn't sold out yet or even made impressive sales because as of yet, nothing is announced or certain. Plus as you said a lot of big names are in doubt and some people don't really want to pay all that money to travel and see Mania when as you said, it's just the youth who have not build up a legacy that people wanna pay to see them main event Wrestlemania.
Some people go to Mania just for the spectacle and to say you've been there, but really? The next Wrestlemania may well be the worst purely because a lot of talent is out and there is doubt surrounding the whole event. I wouldn't pay out to see Mania next year because I would have to travel far and the cost of that wouldn't be worth it yet.
I wouldn't see some of my favourite superstars, potentially. That's the main problem that WWE have. They're missing people and people don't wanna risk paying out to see something without at least something being advertised.
Mania is the type of event you hype up over months not make a surprise card like 2 weeks before. To bring up ticket sales, they need to announce something.. anything. A big name to return for one match or just to show up.
Also they need to risk booking matches never seen before. Aka Cena vs Taker. They also need to have some youth there and just have something big go down.
100% True. And I also agree with you three are only three options Mr.McMahon could do to save WM 27 to save WM 27 from being the worst WM of all time. And The Undertaker vs Cena would be the best way to save WM 27, that could sell 93,173 crowd, since this is the biggest match since Hogan vs Andre at WM 3 and Austin vs Rock at WM 17.
But, The Undertaker vs Cena must be a for WHC. If not, then what will be the main events of WM 27? I can't think any other match would be appropriate to be WHC match at WM 27 : Rey Mysterio vs Alberto Deo Rio in WHC match, Edge vs Christian for WHC?
Those are also bad matches and shouldn't headline WM 27 at all. I think Taker vs Cena should be the headline of WM 27 and for WWE Title match I think the best way would be to have Triple H vs Randy Orton vs Wade Barrett Triple Threat. That would be a decent/average match, maybe as average as Triple H vs Orton at WM 25, but at least it isn't crap such as Cena vs Miz or Undertaker vs Barrett.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
