What if Eddie Guerrero did not pass away and Batista wasn't hurt? What would Wrestlemania look like?

For some reason that question popped into my mind after No Way Out on Sunday and the Batista appearance. Just made me get thinking about things and how Wrestlemania would be so much more different and better than what is being planned. So here is what I believe would have been Wrestlemania 22's card:
Eddie Guerrero (World Heavyweight Champion) vs Randy Orton vs Rey Mysterio
John Cena (WWE Champion) vs Triple H
Undertaker vs Batista
Hulk Hogan vs Steve Austin
Shawn Michaels vs Vince McMahon
Booker T vs Boogeyman
Shelton Benjamin (I-C Champ) vs Ric Flair
Chris Benoit (US champ) & Lashley vs JBL & Finlay
Edge vs Kurt Angle
Money in the Bank Ladder Match: Carlito vs Big Show vs Kane vs Chris Masters vs RVD vs ?????
Throw in a MNM tag team title match on heat/velocity whatever it's called.

I'm sorry to disagree but if Eddie had not have passed away I do not believe that Rey would ever have been considered for the headline wrestlemania match. It was only due to Eddie's sad death that that Rey has received this push as it was a mark of respect to Eddie and obviously what the fans wanted. Also had Batista not have been injured I believe that he would still be champ so the main event would far more likely be Batista v Orton.

What I had heard... Eddie was to beat Batista for the belt and get another run as champion into 'Mania. The triple threat main event would be because of nothing to do with Rey. Can't put him back into the Cruiserweight division anymore.

Batista vs 'Taker was rumoured since SummerSlam that they'd aim towards a match at 'Mania. Just what was once rumoured.

I'd heard the Batista rumour but he was proving too popular as champ to strip him of the belt. I suppose throwing Rey into the mix would make sense.

Where did the Hogan/Austin angle come from?

The Hogan vs Austin thing is from just after SummerSlam last year. WWE had nothing for Hogan after facing Michaels. Only person left for him to fight would be Austin. On that WWE Homecoming RAW, Hogan did challenge Austin. It was just thrown out there as a "What if Austin and me fought?" sort of thing in his promo. It was thought that they'd build up towards a Wrestlemania fight, but doubt that will happen because Austin hasn't been around.
