WWE: 10 Ways To Book WrestleMania 30 (Without Cena Or Punk)

7. Replace Punk With Ziggler In The HHH Match

Having replaced Cena with Reigns in the proposed Wyatt match, who replaces CM Punk in his anticipated match with Triple H? Well, the WWE could be looking at Daniel Bryan, but as I've detailed Bryan really needs to be in the main event. I think WWE know that they can't do Batista vs Orton any more, the fans are in revolt, so I think they will indeed re-book Bryan into that match. This leaves 'The Game' without either Punk or Bryan to work with. Step up Dolph Ziggler. The talented (and charismatic) star is begging for an opportunity. Just watch this awesome worked shoot from the WWE app last week: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKMODAb2Ajg That promo was borderline a pipe bomb. Could it have been purposefully done that way to facilitate Ziggler taking up Punk's battle with the Authority? It would sure as hell make sense. Ziggler has spent the last six months legitimately being held down by management. If he was to take up his real life issues with Triple H in a worked shoot angle on Raw it would generate a raucous reaction from the audience. The story makes sense, given Ziggler and especially Hunter's ability on the mic it would be cause for some awesome segments in the run up to the New Orleans show. On the night itself, the match could end up as good as some of Hunter's contests with Shawn Michaels given how close in style Ziggler is to HBK. Best of all, Dolph would get the rub he needs, he would seriously be elevated in fan perceptions from this match win or lose. In that respect it makes more sense than Punk vs HHH; Punk is already a made man, whereas Ziggler needs this push.
