It looks like they will play this out to be a triple threat, but if Taker is coming back this is how I would book it:

15 minutes into the match Cena hits the AA with the ref down and the lights go off. Enter Shield to beat Cena. Punk crawls to get the pin but Cena kicks out. Punk hits GTS and the lights go out again. Enter Taker. Tombstone. Cena wins.

Should have walked in as champ. Never losing it in the first place.

I'm looking forward to the match more than the outcome of it. Whatever happens next week in their match, I expect Punk and Cena to give us one hell of a match. These two work greatly together in the ring so I can't wait for it.

Punk vs Rock 3, I'll pass on that. Their last match was down right terrible. I can't believe people think that putting these 3 is a good idea, it's not.

Cena should be unable to beat Rock in a 1 on 1 match. Rock will always be considered a bigger star than Cena. Looking back in 10 years time, nobody will bat an eyelid when they see that Cena couldn't beat Rock 1 on 1. That's how it should be anyway.

Called it to be a triple threat bout the very moment Cena cut that promo on Raw after the Rumble PPV. I guess this match will end up being a draw or they might pull off a disqualification finish leading to both of them advancing into the main event with The Rock.

I think people are hoping for a triple threat when in reality it will just be a singles match.

Punk has had probably the best two years of any wrestler so rather then just kill him out of the picture they are gently removing him from the main event scene. With Rock not being around for a couple of weeks they need something to keep it interesting on the show. Having Punk against Cena on Raw is the answer to that.
The whole point of those two weeks will be to make Cena look strong again. The whole thing about not beating Punk or the Rock is just to remind people of Cena's gimmick which is to overcome the odds, that he is somehow the underdog. We all know it is bullshit but that is how Vince likes to portray him.

Cena will beat Punk and Punk will then blame Heyman for him missing out on Mania. Maybe even attacking Heyman which will then get Brock involved but more importantly break up Punk and Heyman. Punk flees from Brock and HHH comes out setting up the start for Brock vs HHH at Mania. HBK will probably eventually get involved too.

This leaves Punk to feud with Taker. He will probably continue on his delusional gimmick path talking about how he has the greatest streak in the last 20+ years as he held the belt longer then anyone since 1983. This will obviously be the set up for Taker to come out and say his is better etc.

If Taker does not come out and skips Mania then I see Punk maybe becoming leader of The Shield and having a 4 man tag match at Mania. Possibly against Sheamus,Ryback,Jericho and someone else.

There are a lot of guys still without a match for Mania but there are also already obvious matches in place
Rio vs Swagger
Kane vs Bryan
Rock vs Cena
Diva vs Diva

Mania normally has around 8 matches so that leaves around another 4/5 matches.
And typically there is a big tag match. Last year was Smackdown vs Raw 12 man match. Year before was 6 man mixed match with Trish etc. So I can see The Shield being that match this year. The question simply is who would face them. WWE could go in many different paths with it by either keeping Ryback,Sheamus and Jericho feuding with them or by adding more guys i.e Punk/Orton.

Can't really say I care about this, unfortunately.
