The emphasis of this week's Raw seems to suggest that John Cena vs The Miz will be going on last. If so, this wil be Cena's third Wrestlemania main event and The Miz' first. On the other hand, if they go the route of last year, and have The Undertaker vs Triple H headline, it will be The Undertaker's fourth, but Hunter's seventh!

Thirty men have headlined 'Mania over the years, and here they are.

8 Wrestlemanias headllined: Hulk Hogan (1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9)

6 Wrestlemanias headllined: Triple H (16, 18, 20, 21, 22 and 25)

5 Wrestlemanias headllined: Shawn Michaels (12, 14, 20, 23 and 26)

4 Wrestlemanias headllined: The Rock (15, 16, 17 and 28) and John Cena (22, 23, 27 and 28)

3 Wrestlemanias headllined: Bret Hart (9, 10 and 12), The Undertaker (13, 24 and 26), Stone Cold Steve Austin (14, 15 and 17)

2 Wrestlemanias headllined: Randy Savage (4 and 5), Sycho Sid (8 and 13), Yokozuna (9 and 10)

1 Wrestlemania headllined: Mr. T (1), Roddy Piper (1), Paul Orndorff (1), King Kong Bundy (2), Andre the Giant (3), Ted DiBiase (4), The Ultimate Warrior (6), Sgt. Slaughter (7), Bam Bam Bigelow (11), Lawrence Taylor (11), The Big Show (16), Mick Foley (16), Chris Jericho (18), Brock Lesnar (19), Kurt Angle (19), Chris Benoit (20), Batista (21), Edge (24), Randy Orton (25), The Miz (27)

Interesting Stuff!

HHH is just not worthy of that many Mania main events IMO

Thats crop on three Mania's is a special group and personally i think Cena/Miz should headline over DelRio/Edge which would take Cena to 3, which again is probably deserved for work ethic alone. Plus he hasn't headlined for 4 years which surprised me
This is how it works, You're young until you're not
You love until you don't, You try until you can't
You laugh until you cry, You cry until you laugh
And everyone must breathe, Until their dying breath

I think the bigger question here is how in the blue hell did Sycho Sid make 2?  I mean I know business was down both times....but still...
