Zachary FenellPreviewing Wrestlemania XXVII- WWE Title Match

The Miz walks into the Georgia Dome tomorrow night as WWE Champion, set to defend the WWE Title he won towards the end of 2010 against number one contender John Cena. The WWE Champion enters Wrestlemania XXVII with an adherent advantage over his opponent, focus. John Cena spent much of the past month distracted by a war of words with The Rock, the Wrestlemania host. The Miz, on the other hand, remains determined to not let John Cena or The Rock steal his spotlight.
Last month I published a post showing concern that John Cena’s verbal encounters with The Rock would overshadow The Miz, the man who as WWE Champion rightfully deserves to be the center of attention heading into the biggest show of them all. The Miz has remedied my fears through his promos and antics with the most notable being The Miz dressing up as The Rock to fake out the WWE Universe. In many ways,The Rock’s engagement with John Cena has only helped The Miz be more “AWE-SOME!”
With that said, I’d like to go on record to say The Rock’s interactions with John Cena and The Miz seem rather frivolous. I thought for sure The Rock would be given a special enforcer type role for the bout but with a little over 24 hours left before Wrestlemania XXVII begins The Rock’s Wrestlemania role remains the ambiguous “Wrestlemania Host” position. If The Rock isn’t going to have a formal role in the WWE Title match, I don’t understand why the WWE didn’t simply go with a more routine storyline for Wrestlemania XXVII’s main event.
