However, the outcome of SmackDown\u2019s main event became unclear when the injured Guerrero waved-off The Rated-R Superstar win. Who is the rightful holder of the World Title?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Dolph Ziggler wrote on Twitter, &#8220;Last night was a success! Kent State won the MAC Conference &amp; I won the World Heavyweight Championship! Best Dolph Ziggler Day EVER! ;)&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8212; Rumors within the industry suggest that The Rock is to be announced as the WWE WrestleMania host.  WWE has largely kept the move secret&#8211;sources say the details on McMahon&#8217;s announcement from RAW, for instance, were not even in the script&#8211;but indications are that he will probably be the major name involved.<\/p>\n<p>Over on Twitter, Joey Styles has teased Justin Bieber as an ideal candidate to host the show.  While WWE does want the &#8220;Never Say Never&#8221; star on the show, it is unclear that he would fit the company&#8217;s plans for the guest host role.
