Road to Wrestlemania: Week 9

This week on the final week before Wrestlemania it was intense. The show started off with Randy Orton and CM Punk confronting each other. It ended with Punk giving Orton the GTS gaining momentum for Wrestlemania. The first match of the evening saw World Heavyweight Champion Edge and Christian defeating Alberto Del Rio and Brodus Clay. Unfortunately for Edge, Del Rio got the last laugh.

Another match that worked on build up for Wrestlemania saw the duo of U.S. Champion Sheamus and Dolph Ziggler defeating Daniel Bryan and John Morrison. I really think the match between Sheamus and Daniel Bryan has the potential to be match of the night if it goes well.

Speaking of build up for Wrestlemania the segment with Triple H, The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels was intense. I am really not sure about this match because everyone assumes that The Undertaker is going to win. What if he doesn’t? How will this change wrestling and the WWE. More importantly how will the fans react?

Raw ended with The Rock, John Cena and The Miz all in confrontation with each other. However John Cena got the last laugh by watching The Rock beat up Miz and then giving The Rock the Attitude Adjustment.

That’s how Raw ended headed into Wrestlemania. There wasn’t much of a Smackdown this week. Just highlights from Wrestlemania Axcess. The official card for Wrestlemania 27 looks like this:

-WWE Champion The Miz vs. John Cena
