Cena & HBK vs. Undertaker & Batista

It makes no difference who wins this match, so it's a real tough one to call. Obviously we're likely to see partner against partner to build up to WrestleMania. I hate to flip-flop, but I'm going back with my original picks. Sure HBK and Cena were laid out on Raw, but they got their payback on Smackdown. This is a Smackdown PPV, so the Smackdown guys are the safe bet.

It’s pretty even - All four of them won in the match on Thursday. Cena and HBK beat MVP and Kennedy (who is for sum reason facing Lashley). and Taker and Batista beat Rated RKO (who should be beating up each other). After Monday’s Match, Taker and Batista attacked Cena and HBK. After Thursday’s 2nd Main Event, Cena and HBK attacked Taker and Batista. I’m just going to have the go with the Royal Rumble winners on this one, and because it is a Smackdown PPV.

After Batista was chokeslammed on Raw, I think it's time for Cena or HBK to start beating each other up. And to have the tag champs fall apart right before Mania seems to make the most sense.

This match could go either way, since it won't make much of a difference. I agree with the Tocc though, a superkicked Cena is more likely.

Any match on this card could pretty much go either way. My first reaction is that this match will end in a no contest with all 4 men beating on their own partners, but that would be a crappy way to end a PPV. So, I will go with Batista and Undertaker here.

Could go Either Way Very Hard to Pick

gotta go with smackdowns team here...i just dont see hbk and cena doing well as a unit...i think they got more heat inside themselves than taker and the animal...but like tocc says, it makes no difference...its just a very goot "prematch" leading up to wrestlemania 23

Will probably go to no contest anyways.

This is a smackdown ppv and i see the bigger men winning this one

Much like John 'we've' Cena 'nuff' & Boretista vs Booker & Finlay at Armageddon this match is pointless and unimportant. So I'll go with Boretista and Taker, but who cares anyway.

Cena is going to finally I said finally be out of the wwe title picture after wrestlemania.

I really dont care.

Ok, I'm going out on a limb on this one. Double DQ.

The way i see it Takers gonna gets his ass handed to him here by Batista . HBK n Cena can turn against each other wenever on RAW defending their Tag Title so i dont think we'll see Cena getting superkicked etc.

its a smackdown ppv but i would like to see HBK vs. Taker at some point down the road. A super kick to cena and a hot title switch to the hardy's on monday should be good.

Because they represent Smackdown and they will win it for their brand.

{SPOILER} Undertaker and Batista beat up HBK and JC on RAW so revenge, I guess.

Right now I don't know who to choose. The fact that the partners will be facing each other at Mania doesn't exactly help the pick. For now I'll go with the Raw guys, but it at this point, it's too early to tell.

Makes more sense in my opinion.

Duh

I think that HBK will superkick Cena or something, and Taker will pin him for the win. Then after the match Batista, Batista Bombs 'Taker so he'll get revenge for the chokeslam on RAW.

taker is no way out he is on the poster

hard 2 choose bt i think taker and batista will pull through 2 be the victors

This is a classic partner vs. partner match before Mania. I'd say Cena's the one most likely to be pinned, but what's unclear is whether HBK will turn on Cena and superkick him, or let Cena fall to a Batista Bomb or Tombstone. Since HBK doesn't appear to be heading for a heel turn, I'll say the latter, and they can drop the tag titles to a heel team like Deuce and Domino or Haas and Benjamin before Mania.

Personally, I would much rather have seen HBK and Taker take on the champs, especially since a battle of the Main Events is exactly what they did at SNME last year, and it sucked. I can't really see Taker or Batista being the ones to turn on their partner mid-match, so it would have to be one of Raw's guys. The SmackDown! team has to win simply because they are the bigger Main Event, but also because Cena really needs to let up on the whole "invincibility" crap. Hogan pulled the same thing and eventually people booed him out of arenas. Show some weakness, please.
