Road to Wrestlemania 26- Week 1
The Road to Wrestlemania has officially started and it started at the Royal Rumble when Edge won the Rumble match to earn a spot at the main event at Wrestlemania. Edge started off Raw declaring his victory with until Sheamus interrupted him. Sheamus and Edge went at it and Edge finished the segment with a spear. Their were 5 matches to face Sheamus in the Elimination Chamber for the WWE Championship. The men who qualified were John Cena, Triple H, Randy Orton, Ted DiBiase and Kofi Kingston. I think this is going to set up Ted DiBiase vs. Randy Orton at Wrestlemania and possibly Triple H and Sheamus depending on what happens with Shawn Michaels. Shawn Michaels has been obsessed with facing the Undertaker again and it’s costing him matches. Will Shawn get his wish or will he left off Wrestlemania? The show ended with Bret Hart and Vince McMahon having their confrontation. Bret was beating the crap out of Vince until Batista came out and beat up Bret for Vince. I wonder what the ramifications of those actions will be? Next week on Raw there will be a Triple Threat Tag Team match for the Unified Tag Championships. It will be DX vs. Straightedge Society vs. The Miz/Big Show.
On ECW the show was mainly revolved around Christian and Gregory Helms. Zack Ryder attacked Helms for getting arrested last week and Christian defended. Helms was attacked by William Regal and Ezekiel Jackson for asking tough questions. The Main Event was Christian vs. Zack Ryder. Christian won but got attacked by Jackson and Regal after the match to end the show. ECW will be done in three week and will be called NXT.
Then tonight on Smackdown which was taped Tuesday you will see the Smackdown Elimination Chamber be set. The show started with Chris Jericho saying he’s the number one contender for the World Championship. Five men qualified to face the Undertaker in the Elimination Chamber for the World Title. Those men five men are John Morrison, R-Truth, CM Punk, Chris Jericho, and Rey Mysterio. The show ended with the Cutting Edge that saw Jericho, Punk and The Undertaker all get involved. Edge and Taker eventually cleared the ring out by attacking Punk and Jericho. The show ended with Edge and Undertaker staring each other down.
The vibe I am getting for Wrestlemania 26 has a few matches being setup right now. Here are the matches I am thinking about.
WWE Championship- Triple H (c) vs. Shawn Michaels
World Heavyweight Championship- Chris Jericho (c) vs. Edge
Hair vs. Mask CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio
Randy Orton vs. Ted DiBiase
Bret Hart/John Cena vs. Vince McMahon/Batista.
That’s what I am thinking right now, so keep checking back each week on how the twists and turns on the Road to Wrestlemania effect the WWE. Keep checking back each week for Wrestlemania matches, news and more.
