Predictions for Wrestlemania 25!

As I do every year I write down my thoughts on who is going to win at the Granddaddy of them all! Last year I was way off. So I'm hoping to redeem myself this year.

Intercontinental Title Match
JBL vs Rey-
So... apparently the IC title hasn't been defended at Wrestlemania since WM18. Which is not too surprising because the IC title has lost it's luster. (Or gained it, if you consider the World Heavyweight Title the new IC belt....I digress, that'll be a different blog.) Anyway, Rey had a clean victory on Raw. I think JBL retains. As for his big announcement? I've read a couple interesting theories, one of them being JBL announcing he'll be the new GM of Raw. Interesting....if that's the case? Rey wins.
WINNER: and STILL IC champ JOHN BRADSHAW LAYFIELD

Tag Team Unification Bout
Miz/Morrison vs Primo/Carlito
This one seemed like a no brainer to me. But a couple "experts" out there have the Colons pegged as the unified champions. Miz and Morrison is hands down the best Tag Team currently in the WWE. Just because you're the best though, doesn't necessarily mean you will be the champs. But...I don't think this fued has enough juice to give the Colons the belt.
WINNERS: MIZ AND MORRISON

Money in the Bank
Well let's get rid of the guys who are filler. Mark Henry nope. Kofi and Shelton are there to make some great looking spots. (Shelton usually delivers) Finlay is there to get Hornswoggle involved. That leaves Christian, MVP, Kane, and CM Punk. 
Kane is a dark horse because he's got a small push recently. But I think he's out. MVP I think has a lot of potential and I think the WWE is finally going to push him....next year. CM Punk won it last year, but I just don't see him winning it again. (CM's year? World champ, lost w/out being pinned, no fued rematch, IC title, lost on first title defense....oh and he was a tag champ I guess)....so that leaves Christian. Fan favorite and probably the most over guy in the match....except Vince hates him....who knows, maybe the McMahons will do something that makes sense for once.
WINNER: CHRISTIAN

Legends Match
Chris Jericho is one of the best in the business....and he'll gladly job to some of the legends of the sport. Give WWE some mainstream exposure by having Rourke get involved and voila, that is your match. Thank you Y2J.
WINNERS: LEGENDS (But truly the real smarks of wrestling)

25 Diva battle royal
This one is hard because all the participants aren't announced. Poor Stacy Keibler...where are you!?!?! If Trish makes it to the match I think she's the winner.
WINNER: TRISH STRATUS (TAMMY SYTCH or SANTINO) And the male fans haha.

The Streak
Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels
What a great fued buildup. These two have reminded fans why wrestling in the early 90s was so dominant. These two veterans are going to put on a show, with HBK kind of going back into his cocky early 20s heel form, but mixing that with his showstopping wrestlemania form....that being said, PLEASE! Undertaker lose? Not happening.
WINNER: TAKER 17-0

World Heavyweight Championship match
Cena Vs Big Show Vs Edge
I think Edge....which is surprising since the next match I have a heel winning....logic dictates that one of the faces walk out with a championship. But I'm going against it.
Winner: EDGE (Also, Edge vs Cena I think would've been a great match, these two had a great feud not too long ago.)

WWE Championship
Orton vs HHH
Please let Hunter lose...he's great at certain things...I just don't particularly enjoy watching him. Not at all. I believe it's Orton time, he's been built up since he injury return. Age of Orton shall rule us for a while now. 
WINNER: RANDY ORTON
