Beth Phoenix does

I like Khali. He can't wrestle for toffee and he couldn't cut a promo to save his life but the guy is hilarious. As long as he's only involved in the joke crap then I don't mind him being there, it's far better than them using serious wrestlers as a punchline. I bet he makes them an absolute fortune from India as well, the guy is mad popular over there.

If you don't want to speculate avoid the PPV thread coming up to the RR where there will obviously be speculation.

Realistically I can't see them going for any of the 3 you mentioned, obviously they will end up the main event, because they are main eventers. Its a ridiculous comment because it is so obvious. All 3 have won the RR and the only won who has a storyline reason to win is Cena, whereas if they chose to give the RR to that storyline one would imagine it would be Punk who'd benefit.

Focusing on the same stars for the past few years? Clearly you aren't watching the same program as everyone else.

Sheamus
Del Rio
Barrett
Punk (who is more of a certified main eventer than when he first cashed in)

They are all far more credible than they were a couple of years ago. Punk is the only one who was with the company, to say they have been relying on the same names is absurd. They have really suffered from a lack of big names. No Michaels, no Taker for most of the year, no HHH for most of the year, no Batista. 5 main eventers gone. Only 2 of them coming back, one most certainly part time at that and the other still in a decreased role if he sticks to his word.

I do agree that the 3 you listed are all possibilities but to criticise WWE for going to their main events to main event, well duh.

I think you misunderstood my comment. I was referring to the fact that in these last few years the wwe hasn't taken much of a risk when deciding the main event at wrestlemania (and I don't blame them). That is why I asume edge will fight for the world championship, and orton or cena will fight for the wwe title at wrestlemania this year and that is why I dont see, say, morrison or any face apart from cena winning the rumble. Why? Beause their three top guys all happen to be faces and those are the ones they want to put in the main event.

I know Alberto del rio, Barret, Sheamus and to a lesser extent punk are relatively new, but they are imo the top heels in the wwe right now and at mania, the wwe will want them to be in the main event facing the above,(maybe) via winning the royal rumble

Im not criticising, im just guessing what the wwe will do, because they want the best cards at the biggest ppv (mania), its just good business.

I could be totally wrong, of course, and they could shock us with a surprise winner

Triple H will come back with his luxorious hair he once had

Nah, it'll be Cena after he heroically eliminates all the members of both the Nexus and the Corre, where he will go on to overcome the odds after a vicious sneak attack from The Miz and win the title in the main event of WrestleMania.
