Wrestlemania XXVI predictions time

Now that we have all 9 matches announced for WM 26, it's time that I do predictions in the order I believe they are going to happen in.

ShoMiz VS Truth and Wisdom
I don't like ShowMiz and I never really will. I like the Miz because he's awesome, but the team is corny. I was hoping for Miz to be in the MITB match or at least defend his title, but he has to be apart of this stupid tag team match. I could see a Morrison/Truth victory, so Miz can continue with his singles career and eventually get a WWE Title shot, while Big Show can leave for all I care.
Winner: Truth and Wisdom

Triple Threat Match; Orton/DiBiase/Rhodes
DiBiase and Rhodes first Mania match. It's basically going to be a handicap match, but I hope Orton makes these two looks good. If Orton can put these two over then we'll definitely see these two main event WM in the future. Of course, though, Orton will still win, but it won't be without a fight.
Winner: Randy Orton

CM Punk VS Mysterio
The first big match I'm really looking forward to. This, if given enough time, could be a show stealer. I don't really get a chance to watch SD, mainly because I work, but I saw the promo where Punk interrupted Rey's daughter's birthday celebration and I really believe that he's the best heel in the WWE right now. With the added stipulation if Mysterio loses, he joins the Straight Edge Society, I can't see a Punk victory, but of course, it's Wrestlemania, so anything can happen. I'm going with the Straight Edge Savior regardless.
Winner: The Straight Edge Savior, Cm Punk

MITB Ladder Match
CRIME CRIME CRIME!!! As of March 19th, Kofi Kingston, one of Raw's top midcarders is not on the card or in this match. A serious crime is being committed and if he's not in it, I'll be sorely disappointed. Anyway, of the nine men in this match, I can only see two winning and that's Christian or Drew McIntrye. I expect Bourne and Benjamin to do some crazy spots, and it should be a great last MITB at Wrestlemania. If I had to pick from the two, I would say Christian and then he cashes in that night against the winner of the Edge/Jericho match.
Winner: Christian

Triple H/Sheamus
Should be a good one. This is Sheamus' big chance to show that he belongs with the top dogs in WWE. This one isn't going to be pretty and it will probably end up being a brawl, but I'm really looking forward to seeing what Sheamus will bring to the table. I think Triple H is going to win, but I really want to see a Sheamus victory, so I'm going with Sheamus.
Winner: Sheamus

Bret VS Vince
Are you kidding? Bret all the way. I'm looking forward to seeing how this match will play out. I know it's going to be ugly, but I wonder how WWE will do this match. Will it be like the HBK/Vince match from WM22 where Bret basically dominates the match or will it be back and forth? I still think Bret will win regardless.
Winner: Bret

Chris Jericho VS Edge
Time for the main events. The last two years, the Royal Rumble winner hasn't won the title at Wrestlemania. And the title just changed hands at the last event. Also, at the last Wrestlemanias, there was always one world title that was retained, at least since 22. Since Cena is all but confirmed to win, this is the hardest match for me to pick from. I would love to see Edge as World champ so he could feud with CM Punk and Morrison in a couple of months, but I don't want the only reason Jericho became champion was to drop it to Edge. It's really stupid. This is a tough decision. I'm going to go with Edge winning.
Winner and new World Champion: Edge

HBK VS Undertaker: Career VS The Streak
The biggest match of the year, the biggest match of the post Attitude era, and the biggest match of HBK's career. I really can't decide between this and the WWE Title match on whether which one will be the main event but either one would be an acceptable main event. Last year, I went with HBK. The year before that, I went with Edge. I'm 0-2 with the Undertaker's matches the last two years, but that won't stop me from going with HBK again. I told my dad that if HBK lost this match, I would never go against Undertaker at Wrestlemania again. This should be another classic encounter between two of the WWE's greatest superstars. It really could go either way. I would rather see HBK win so we can see HBK go up against Punk, Morrison, and Sheamus in the future. It's going to be a show stealer. Look at it like this, if HBK loses, who else does Undertaker have to beat? At 27, he'll face Christian, Sheamus, or Jericho and once he beats them, he'll face CENA at 28. And do we really want Cena to be the one who ends the streak? Wouldn't you rather see someone on the same level as Taker be the one who ends the streak, not some young punk? I'm going with HBK. 17-1 this year Dead Man!
Winner: HBK

Cena VS Batista
This is going to be great. I'm liking the feud going into this match. I really don't like either one of these guys, but I respect them. With rumors of Batista retiring soon, and the fact that Cena has been beaten by Batista each time they faced each other, Cena HAS to win this match. It's not something I want to admit, but come on. If Drew wins the MITB and Cena wins the title, I think Drew is going to cash it in on Cena and lose. Someone has to lose with the MITB. Then, they can send all the kids home happy. If Taker and HBK main event, then no goes home happy, especially if HBK retires. So, I'm definitely going with Cena/Batista in the main event of WM26. It's about time this two met in the ME at Mania. It took 5 years, but it's finally happening. I'm still going with Cena
Winner: Cena

I can't wait until Wrestlemania XXVI. It's got a jam packed card with a lot of great one on one matches. No triple threat main event for the title and everyone's on the card (EXCEPT FOR KOFI!!!!!). This could be the best Mania in years. It beats out every WMs card and there's so much potential in each match. March 28th can't come fast enough.
