I meant get his 3'rd strike. Now, granted, he's probably smarter than that, but if Evan Bourne got 2 back to back suspensions, I'm not ruling out anything. It's a risk to give the shot to anybody with history like that, regardless of how long the odds are. Can you imagine if they had to change the match THREE times?

I'd only want it to Henry if ADR was going to lose at WM no matter the opponent which I don't think is going to be the case. Even with all the Swagger fuckery, I don't think ADR is dropping the belt at WM. So I'd go with Orton or MAYBE a TV cash-in from Ziggler?? Don't know...

They could make a story out of it haha. Still, I'd imagine Orton isn't too big a risk, simply because the first thing someone would get told in this situation if it happens would be 'don't you dare fuck it up!'. A guy like Orton who has been with the company for a long time would probably go along with that. Still, whatever happens happens. If I were booking, I'd probably tell Swagger he's out of the match and use RAW to build up to a new one.
In my mind most guys already have their matches for WM so it's a perfect time to bring back Christian. He and Del Rio had a great match at Extreme Rules 2011 and could have another one at Mania.
How to set it up? I don't have a good way to get Swagger out yet, but have Christian return as a heel demanding One More Match, which he was promised if Team Johnny won at WM28. He can say even though he wasn't apart of the match itself Team Johnny still won and he never got his match that he rightfully deserves. From there he can either be granted the match now that Swagger is out or he wins a match to earn the shot against maybe Orton since he was the last one eliminated at EC.
Del Rio can barely beat Big Show, then Ziggler can cash in.
Orton would mostly just be a name to add to the match's prestige, but at least he'd actually be getting used for something important for the first time in a frickin year.
In fact, how about a triple threat match? Big Show, Orton, Del Rio.
Orton RKOs Del Rio, Big Show punches Orton, Del Rio recovers in time to do the armbar thing on Big Show, retains. Ziggler cashes in on a wobbly Del Rio after Big E holds off whoever.
