Early Rumored Matches for Wrestlemania 26
As a wrestling fan I always love this time of year because the beginning phases of Wrestlemania begin and the rumors start flying about what matches are going to take place. Some matches are a given where others are a stretch of the imagination. Here are the rumored matches for Wrestlemania 26 so far.
The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels, which would be a rematch from last year. I think it would be a good match but they can’t do any better then what they did last year. Plus we already know who will win.
Sheamus vs. Triple H, which might be for the WWE Championship depending on if Sheamus loses the title anytime soon. It looks like the student will be facing the teacher at Wrestlemania. If most of you don’t know, Triple H and Sheamus are training partners which explains why Sheamus has title right now.
Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon is a given at the point because Bret returns to Raw tonight and has signed a three month contract to appear on WWE through Wrestlemania 26. It should be noted that Bret has not wrestled a match since 1999 due to his career ending concussion. This will be a match people will want to see because of the bad blood that goes back over a decade.
Edge vs. Chris Jericho, is up in the air due to Edge’s injury. A lot of people want him to be back in time for Wrestlemania but they are still unsure on how he is recovering. Don’t forget Edge and Chris Jericho were Tag Team Champions until Edge got injured and was replaced with the Big Show. I also wouldn’t be surprised to see Edge/Christian reunited to team up again Jeri-show.
Randy Orton vs. Ted Dibiase is also being talked about because the fans are slowly getting behind Teddy and feel that the best time to turn him face will be at the Royal Rumble. Wrestlemania is taking place in Arizona which are where the Dibiase’s live or did live when Ted was growing up. It would be a great scenario for Ted to get his push as a singles star.
CM Punk vs. Jeff Hardy is a long shot because of Jeff’s legal troubles and the fact that he is meeting with TNA Wrestling tonight. I would love to see Jeff return and face Punk once again because they have had some great matches in the past. Stay tuned for more on those developments.
Other rumored things I have heard are Batista being World Heavyweight Champion headed into Wrestlemania 26. I’ve also heard the crazy rumor that John Morrison will win the Royal Rumble and face the World Heavyweight Champion. Please keep in mind that these are all rumors I’ve read and collected. I will be covering Wrestlemania 26 extensively so check back on the Road to Wrestlemania for news, matches and more. The Road begins January 31st at the Royal Rumble so stay tuned.
