I'm curious as to how many matches there will be on the card. The last three years have featured 8, 10, and 9 matches, respectively. WM26 saw matches like Rey/Punk get severely shrunk, and last year the 8 man tag was incredibly short as well because they were strapped for time. I'm expecting Rock/Cena and Taker/HHH to take up nearly 90 minutes between the matches, long video packages, and promos.

I'm not sure we'll see Zack Ryder vs. Kane. It would make sense, but for some reason I just have a hard time seeing that match actually happening at WrestleMania. Instead, I'm guessing that Ryder finally gets his US Title match. As for Kane, Laurinaitis picks him as an injury fill-in for Wade Barrett in the Laurinaitis/Long tag match. Kane's character really wouldn't give a shit about who's in control of the shows, he just wants to hurt as many people as possible. The match would be able to set up his next feud for Extreme Rules and beyond.

And speaking of the tag match, I see it being absolutely loaded it with big names and it being 7 on 7, Bragging Rights-style so that it would get plenty of time. I'm calling that Rey Mysterio appears for Team Long. Rey's apparently been making a push to try and be ready for Mania, and being in a huge tag match would be able to ease him back into the fold rather than making him be in the ring the entire time.

I'll go with an 8 match card, this way ideally nothing gets rushed and they don't find themselves having to bump a match they've promoted off the card altogether. Also, I think my card is realistic in that I don't have any guys appearing on the show that I don't think would get a proper WM payday in real life (sorry Noid, but I just can't see guys like Zeke, Gabriel, or Drew getting onto the card). Drew would make sense...but I feel like there are enough other big names to squeeze on I don't think they'd put Drew in.
