WWE WrestleMania 35: all the rumours and reports for the final card

There isn't a more exciting time of year to be a wrestling fan than WrestleMania season.

Even by WWE's high standards, though, this year's build to the Show of Shows is shrouded in uncertainty and doubt.

13

We as fans can normally see the top three or four matches on the WrestleMania card coming a mile off. This year? It's not been so clear cut and while that's generally a good thing, it's got plenty of people wondering about the company's plans.

Below, we take a look at the matches we know about and those that have been heavily rumoured:

Seth Rollins Vs Brock Lesnar - Universal title

This actually isn't as much of a lock as we all thought. Seth Rollins won the Men's 2019 Royal Rumble and as a result, earned the right to face whichever world champion he wanted to in WWE.

Rollins, of course, chose The Beast and it's quite common knowledge that Triple H had been lobbying for that direction for a long time, even battling McMahon's desire to put Drew McIntyre into that spot.

13

Now, Rollins is suffering with a back injury that is scheduled to keep him out for a month.

All it takes is one complication with his recovery and one of WrestleMania's featured events is in doubt.

Becky Lynch Vs Ronda Rousey Vs Charlotte Flair - Raw Women's title

Similarly to Rollins, Lynch took the Royal Rumble route and decided to call out Ronda Rousey. Of course, Rousey and Lynch has been in the pipeline since their interaction at Survivor Series but speculation continues to run rampant that Charlotte Flair will be added to the match.

13

The WWE did indeed make that happen in amongst a few confusing suspensions for Lynch, but after her win at Fastlane via a Rousey interference, Lynch will indeed be in the match and it will be a triple threat. Now, Charlotte is the SmackDown Live Women's champion after defeating Asuka on SD Live and both titles could well be involved.

Triple H Vs Batista

Anyone saw SmackDown 1000 or has heard Batista say he wants Triple H to retire him will have seen this coming, but then Triple H suffered a torn pectoral muscle at Crown Jewel in November and it threw everything into jeopardy.

13

Batista has since turned up and destroyed Ric Flair to give Triple H reason to finally grant his wish and The Game has obliged.

Shane McMahon Vs The Miz

These two were the SmackDown Live Tag Team champions, but The Usos defeated them twice and on the second occasion, McMahon turned on Miz in his own home town of Cleaveland, Ohio. These two were always destined to meet at 'Mania, according to .

13

Shane will undoubtedly flourish as a heel, but will it work for Miz as a face?

Drew McIntyre Vs Roman Reigns

We didn't think we'd have Roman Reigns at 'Mania a few months ago, but the Big Dog has returned.

13

After McIntyre destroyed both Reigns and then the departing Dean Ambrose on Raw, The Scot has since challenged The Big Dog on the Grandest Stage and Reigns accepted on the penultimate edition of Raw before 'Mania.

Sasha Banks & Bayley Vs The IIconis Vs The Divas of Doom Vs Nia Jax & Tamina - Women's Tag Team titles

After thinking we would get Trish Stratus and Lita, Beth Phoenix turned out to be the former legend that has come out of retirement. She has reunited with real-life best friend Natalya and they will compete for the tag team titles.

13

The IIconics have claimed that The Boss & Hug Connection has been ducking them, so they have made their way into the match and Nia Jax and Tamina are yet to give up their pursuit either.

Kurt Angle Vs Baron Corbin

Fans wanted John Cena vs Kurt Angle, but it seems as though they are getting Baron Corbin barring any real last minute changes. It makes sense, to a degree, that Corbin would look to end Angle's career after making his life hell as general manager of Raw.

13

However, Cena makes the world of sense. Kurt Angle gave him his debut, Cena inducted Angle into the Hall of Fame and Cena is now without a match at WrestleMania thanks to Lars Sullivan's panic attack. Would have been poetic, but not to be.

Kofi Kingston Vs Daniel Bryan - WWE title

This wasn't meant to happen, but Kofi Kingston has killed it since getting the call-up for the gauntlet match and the Elimination Chamber that the fans have become too loud to ignore.

13

The whole storyline right now is to make out that Kingston isn't good enough and the New Day man eventually prove Vince McMahon wrong.However, it was his New Day brothers, Xavier Woods and Big E, that did the proving for him by winning a tag team gauntlet match on SmackDown Live this week.

Finn Balor (demon) Vs Bobby Lashley - Intercontinental title

Although these two have faced each other a million times recently, Balor can't seem to get the better of the numbers game with Lio Rush in Lashley's corner.

13

Rumours suggest that Balor is going to call on his demon persona to get the job done at WrestleMania and reclaim his intercontinental title and an advertisement for the show depicts him in that character.

AJ Styles Vs Randy Orton

One incredible promo between these men trhree weeks out from WrestleMania was all that was needed to make this a match that everyone wanted to see.

13

Two former WWE champions are arguing over who built the SmackDown house and while both make good, bold claims, they'll settle things in New Jersey it seems. This has the potential to be a show-stealer if given the proper time.

Buddy Murphy Vs Tony Nese - Cruiserweight title

This one is pretty easy to explain. Murphy has been the champion since winning the belt at Super Showdown in Australia late last year and 205 Live had a tournament to find out who his opponent will be at WrestleMania

13

Tony Nese ended up being the man to win that tournament and now he has the chance to enjoy his first one-on-one match at WrestleMania.

Andre the Giant Battle Royal

All we know about this right now is that Braun Strowman and two cast members from Saturday Night Live - Colin Jost and Michael Che - will be participating in the over the top rope battle royal.

13

Strowman should be, in theory, a lock to win this but with the comedic, Hollywood aspect in play, it's far from a given. WWE loves to give a 'WrestleMania moment'.
