What You Won't See On Next Week's ...

    Cena's going to face The Rock for the WWE Title at WrestleMania!! Never give up!

    • The Breaker

      I hope you're wrong. Besides, they still refer to that match being billed as "Once in a Lifetime"..

      • James d

        Well this can be 2nd in a lifetime!! 🙂
        Despite everyone hating another cena vs rock, they'll put on a great match!!

    Well the "predictable" scenario would be for Rock to beat Punk at the Rumble to win the title, and having Cena win the rumble to set up Rock vs. Cena II at Wrestlemania for the WWE title. Which if you think about it would be the only explainable scenario for having Rock go over Cena last year, to set up another "bigger" match with more on the line.

    I really hope we’ll get a surprise along the way cz the rock winning the title at RR, retaining at the elimination chamber remaych and losing it to cena at WM is obviously what everyone’s expecting. I hope vince can approve a different scenario!

    At this point i could really care less about Cena, the only thing i'm looking forward to at the Rumble is any surprise entrants. I would really like to see Jericho and Christian return.
