Since we're in Mania season, I was just casting my mind back to WM28 and in the main, the number 2 and 3 matches on the card, Punk v Jericho and Undertaker v HHH III. I was thinking that the card could have been a lot stronger if HHH and Jericho swapped places.

Helmsley was a big name needed to solidify Punk as a main eventer, as opposed to just champion, similarly to as Austin had done for him at No Way Out in 2001. Jericho looked more like a nuisance as opposed to a credible threat to the main title at Wrestlemania.

You also had HHH v Undertaker 3, which was overkill (for me at least). I feel Jericho would have been better suited to the role, it'd been a feud which had never happened as opposed to HHH v Undertaker which had happened at least thrice.

Let us know your thoughts and/or any matches you'd have booked differently.

Re: Rebooking Wrestlemania 28

The card was fine. Jericho/Punk was fresh and Triple H/Taker was great because of the HBK special referee dynamic. Overall Mania 28 was great. Mania 29 needed serious rebooking though.

Re: Rebooking Wrestlemania 28

Mania 28 was great, Cena/Rock wasnt predictable, Jericho/Punk was great and Hunter/Taker was suspenseful throughout

Cena vs Rock (Cena wins)
Team Johnny (Otunga, Swagger, McIntyre) vs Team Teddy (Santino, Kofi, Khali) (Team Johnny wins....and no one cares)
Punk (c) vs HHH - No DQ for WWE Title (Punk retains)
Barrett vs Ziggler vs Orton vs Del Rio vs Show vs Miz vs Ryder vs Truth - MITB (Barrett wins)
Taker vs Jericho (What do you think happens, smart-ass?)
Rhodes (c) vs Booker - IC Title (Cody retains)
Kane vs Sheamus (Kane wins)
Bryan vs Henry (c) - MITB cash-in for World Heavyweight Championship (Bryan wins...YES! YES! YES!)

I liked this show, Rock winning was so unexpected and so awesome, Taker/HHH I wasn't happy with happening again but that turned out to be an absolute war and with HBK in the middle it stole the show. Punk/Jericho was pretty good but I think it suffered going between the other 2 matches listed.

 

[NO!]

I was fine with the top 3 matches. It's the rest of the card that was shit.
