I can't get why people would want to see Rock vs Cena again. The outcome is so predictable...Only Cena marks would be interested in it. You have Lesnar, Punk, Taker....Why have the same match? It's a terrible idea. Have The Rock in a one-on-one match against one of them. Thats the way to go.
I agree that we need someone to win their first world title at Mania, Its about time someone did it without the money in the bank!
If they are going with Taker, Brock, Cena, Rock, HHH and Punk as the headliners, they can try someone out in a world title match without affecting the buyrate. This Punk, Cena, Rock triangle they have going atm doesnt need the rumble to get a matchup at mania sorted. They can use the Elimination chamber for that. Someone needs to win the Rumble and then go over Sheamus or Orton for the WHC.
Rock(c) v Cena - WWE Title
Taker v Brock
HHH v Punk
Face Orton/Sheamus(c) v Barrett/Sandow(Rumble winner) or Heel Orton/Del Rio(c) v Ryback etc

It looks like Punk/Austin might actually happen this mania, they have been hinting on it for a while. All things considered in my estimation, HHH wont be working this mania at all.
Your estimations have no basis whatsoever. Also, Punk/Austin has virtually 0% chance of happening this mania.
If they do Lesnar vs. HHH vs. Taker, it would make sense and I can see it happening. Taker doesn't have to do all the work or whatever, even though he can still put on a better match than a majority of the active roster. Like, I can see a triple threat between Rock, Cena and Punk too. I just don't see how 2 triple threat main events would pan out in terms of build up, but if those 2 matches main evented wrestlemania they'd probably break last years buyrate record.

Having the streak on the line on a triple threat is the worst thing they can do! You mean Taker can lose at Mania without getting pinned? WTF
HHH being involved this much on Taker at Mania is making me sick. This is Taker's legacy, to the hell with HHH.
Two triple threats main eventing WM would surpass last year's? LOL
Ryback vs. Taker is a great idea and I suggested it here months back. Casuals will love the streak vs. streak idea and eat that shit up. Personally I would save it until Mania 30 so Ryback can get more build and go over credible opponents first. Then he can end the streak at 30 and you have a huge new star.
Also Starbuck is completely right with his comment on the first page.
Ryback/Taker, Triple H/Taker and Punk/Taker would not work. I think Lesnar/Taker is the way to go.
Taker/Lesnar is what most fans here wants. Ryback should face Big Show 1-0n-1 in my opinion, Barrett wins EC match faces Sheamus & Orton triple threat world title match or Sheamus-Barrett. Cena-Rock 2 most likely 2 happen but I'd rather see Punk-Rock-Cena triple threat WWE title with Punk winning, that would be awesome a Heel wins at WM or HHH-Punk with Mayweather & Heyman involved. That's what I wanna see WM29, I'd defo order that but NOT Ryback-Taker. Doesn't make sense for me, if Y2J in this WM, Y2J-Bryan would be classic

Re: Backstage News On Potential RR & WM 29 Plans
Ryback vs. Undertaker? I don't think even Vince is that crazy.
Lesnar/Undertaker is the obvious match-up, they're going to run Cena/Rock II for the WWE Championship and Punk is going to be given something big, whether it's Triple H or the nuclear option, Austin (unlikely). Sheamus/Orton is likely for the WHC. Only thing is, it pretty much guarantees a repeat winner for the Rumble in 2013. Still say I can see them giving Cena that honor which has been elusive for everyone since Austin's heyday. Still think Ryback won't be getting anywhere higher than Big Show at Wrestlemania. To their credit, actually, they've pushed him slowly; he won't be ready for the truly "big boys" (figuratively) in time for Wrestlemania. Guess we'll see.

True, Lesnar-Taker is obvious most fans wanna see. I'm saying Ryback-Big Show for me & CM Punk 2 win rumble would be shocking
