-The rumble will either go to Cena or someone else(who will face the WHC, as no-one outside of Cena is facing Rocky at WrestleMania XXIX).
-The PPV will end nicely with The Rock celebrating his WWE Championship victory. The Rock is winning, period. No other time-frame for winning the title makes sense. He wins and holds it, then loses it at Mania 29 before he has to film fully again.(There were ideas of him winning at Mania then vacating the title, but that is not going to happen. Vince will want The Rock to showcase the title during his busy Spring schedule around the world, and of course, Cena will need to beat the Rock)
