The Only Wrestling Event That My Mum and Dad Actually Know The Name Of, The Only Non-Saudi
Arabian Show That Might Actually Have Pyro, WrestleMania goes by many names and the 35th
installment of it is finally upon us.
It's been a long old ride to get here, and the year of TV from WrestleMania 34 has most
certainly been a turbulent one.
We've seen suspensions, arrests, injuries, medical clearances, hold harmless agreements,
people being inserted into and removed from title matches, Royal Rumble wins being nullified,
face turns, heel turns, wait that's all happened in the last two months in one storyline...
All that nonsense aside, it's been a rocky road for WWE since last year's WrestleMania,
and they'll be hoping to set things right by kicking off the next yearly cycle of programming
in the right way.
With that in mind, my name is Pete Quinnell, I've hopped on over from ScreenStalker so
together, let's take a look at every WrestleMania 35 rumour that you need to know.
RONDA ROUSEY WILL LEAVE AFTER WRESTLEMANIA https://wrestletalk.com/news/ronda-rousey-looks-set-to-leave-wwe-after-wrestlemania/
Ronda Rousey is set to face Becky Lynch and new SmackDown Live Women's Champion Charlotte
Flair in the first ever women's WrestleMania main event, and if rumours are to be believed,
it could be her last match with the company for some time.
It has been speculated for a while that Ronda may take some time out after Mania to start
a family, something she has admitted to wanting in the past, but has more recently rebuffed
in an ESPN interview by saying:
"I honestly don't know why [anyone] feels [they're] an authority to speak on plans for
my uterus.
It's my vagina, my life, keep the speculations to yourself.
Leave me and my reproductive organs alone."
Message received.
Whether or not she's leaving, her 14 months in the company have undoubtedly coincided
with the women's division getting the most focus it has had in the history of WWE.
To be able to say that she has helped WWE's women main event WrestleMania is something
we can't take away from her.
DEMON FINN BALOR WILL APPEAR https://wrestletalk.com/news/finn-balor-wants-undertaker-wrestlemania/
https://wrestletalk.com/news/wwe-advertising-demon-finn-balor-for-wrestlemania-35/ No one knows the rules of when The Demon form
of Finn Balor decides to show up.
He hasn't been seen since SummerSlam last year, when Finn got himself painted up to
take on Baron Corbin.
You know, the Baron Corbin that lost in a quick decisive manner in that match, the Baron
Corbin that lost his Money in the Bank cash-in against Jinder Mahal, and the Baron Corbin
that will be RETIRING KURT ANGLE?!
More on that later.
Ads that have been running on that pesky WWE Network have been showing a line-up of some
of WrestleMania 35's biggest stars including Becky Lynch, Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair,
Brock Lesnar, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and...Bobby Lashley.
Hmm.
But most importantly, alongside them is The Devil's Second Favourite Demon, Finn Balor.
His favourite slot is already taken, unfortunately.
Could this mean Demon boy will be appearing at the show?
Maybe.
KURT ANGLE'S RETIREMENT MATCH WILL CHANGE https://wrestletalk.com/news/kurt-angle-lobbied-for-john-cena-wrestlemania-match/
https://wrestletalk.com/news/wwe-reconsidering-kurt-angle-vs-baron-corbin-match/ https://wrestletalk.com/news/john-cenas-thought-on-baron-corbin-as-kurt-angles-final-opponent/
WHO THOUGHT BARON CORBIN VS KURT ANGLE FOR ANGLE'S RETIREMENT MATCH WAS A GOOD IDEA?
Calm, calm, I'm calm.
Kurt Angle, in storyline, was able to pick anyone he wanted for his final match in WWE
at WrestleMania 35, and he chose Baron Corbin.
This choice, to the surprise of exactly one person, was received rather negatively, with
it being one of the most disliked videos on WWE's YouTube channel.
This "unexpected" backlash has got backstage personnel reeling, and it's been rumoured
that they may be reconsidering this match.
The fantasy bookers among us originally thought that potential final opponents could include
John Cena, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Chad Gable, Drew McIntyre, or even Shelton Benjamin.
While Kurt has been plucking away at those dream opponents on the weekly television shows,
a couple of those names remain elusive.
Drew McIntyre has been confirmed for a match against Roman Reigns at the big show, not
that one, so that rules him out of the equation.
What about big match John?
WWE would of course love to have him back for a WrestleMania appearance, so why not
to retire one of the best workers in the history of the business?
Card subject to change.
BECKY LYNCH WILL WIN https://m.skybet.com/wrestling/wwe-wrestlemania-35/event/23692504
https://wrestletalk.com/news/wwes-top-merchandise-seller-revealed/ The triple threat for the Raw Women's Championship
has been confirmed to main event WrestleMania 35, and deservedly so, despite all the noise
and confusion surrounding the storyline in the build for the last couple of months.
Considering it'll be closing the show, you'd think they'd want to end on a high note,
namely with Becky Lynch capturing the title...right?
According to betting sites, Becky is a strong favourite to come away with the belt, and
why shouldn't she?
It's recently been revealed that she is the highest merchandise seller in the company
and WWE isn't exactly a company that throws away opportunities like that.
Becky has been on the run of her life since the summer of sixty ni...last year, and to
crown her as the champion in the main event of WrestleMania no less would be the perfect
pay off.
THE WOMEN'S TITLES WILL BE UNIFIED This rumour is one that will probably be answered
on this week's editions of Raw and/or SmackDown, but it's looking possible that the triple
threat at WrestleMania could be for both Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships.
With Ronda holding the Raw title, and Charlotte holding the SmackDown one, how cool would
it be for Becky to unite the titles and walk out with both?
It's not out of the realms of possibility, considering the women's divisions have been
severely struggling to manage since the introduction of the Women's Tag Team Championships.
Unifying the Raw and SmackDown's women's titles would no doubt free up some room for
the rest of the division.
While there have been no concrete reports on this, it would only make sense.
They could always have a double champion, I mean, UFC did it with Conor Mcgregor...speaking
of which…
CONOR MCGREGOR WILL APPEAR https://wrestletalk.com/news/conor-mcgregor-at-wrestlemania-35/
Former UFC Champion and all round unusual human Conor McGregor announced his retirement
from the Octagon on Twitter this past week, and as the Irishman is just 30 years old,
you'd have thought he might want something to do for the next 50 years.
He's undoubtedly someone Vince would want on board, with his unquestionable charisma
and mainstream media presence, a man like McGregor could draw a lot of casual fans back
to the product.
When he made his little announcement, a certain Finn Balor commented on it with "See you
at 'Mania brother", and unless this is some kind of Irish slang I don't understand,
I reckon that's FInn Balor inviting Conor McGregor to WrestleMania.
Now, Finn is a bit of a social media troll, but the timing of McGregor's UFC retirement
and the fact he's a self-admitted pro-wrestling fan adds up to one hell
of a rumour, don't ya think?
HULK HOGAN & STONE COLD WILL APPEAR https://wrestletalk.com/news/hulk-hogan-and-brutus-beefcake-scheduled-for-wwe-wrestlemania/
https://wrestletalk.com/news/wwe-stone-cold-steve-austin-wrestlemania/ It wouldn't be WrestleMania without a conveyer
belt of wrestling legends making a sad parade across our screens, much to the nostalgic
delight of all those in attendance and those wearing rose-tinted glasses.
You can call me cynical all you like, and you'd be 100% correct.
There's a couple of huge names rumoured to be appearing at the show this year, with
reports floating the names of Stone Cold Steve Austin the controversial Hulk Hogan prominently.
The pair of them, alongside The Rock, had one of the coolest moments of WrestleMania
30 when they stood alongside each other in the ring and shared a beer, so this time maybe
they'll upgrade to a single malt whiskey or something.
IT WILL BE THE LONGEST WWE PPV OF ALL TIME https://wrestletalk.com/news/report-is-this-the-finalised-wrestlemania-35-card/
https://wrestletalk.com/news/wrestlemania-35-longest-wwe-ppv-all-time/ What's the longest thing in the world?
Good answers, but you're wrong.
The longest thing in the world is WrestleMania 35, which is currently rumoured to be running
for EIGHT HOURS.
For those of you who only understand time in terms of film length like me, that's
like watching Two extended Lord of the Rings films back to back, or like watching the first
four harry potter films back to back, or like spending an hour in my company.
Randy, did you write this?
Come here you little-
The current confirmed card is...deep breath…
Ronda Rousey vs Becky Lynch vs Charlotte Flair Brock Lesnar vs Seth Rollins
Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre Shane McMahon vs The Miz
Daniel Bryan vs Kofi Kingston Aj Styles vs Randy orton
Triple H vs Batista Bobby Lashley vs Finn Balor
Samoa Joe vs Rey Mysterio Sasha Banks & Bayley (c) vs. Beth Phoenix
& Natalya vs. Nia Jax & Tamina Snuka vs. The IIconics
Kurt Angle vs hopefully not Baron Corbin Buddy Murphy vs Tony Nese
Andre the Giant Battle Royal
So far that's 13 matches.
You also need to add the Women's battle royal, a smackdown tag title match, the fact
that John Cena is rumoured to appear, and musical performances from Elias, Alexa Bliss
shenanigans and endless visits to the satanic social media lounge.
Thankfully I've been living on nothing but red bull for the last 8 years so I should
be fine.
KOFI KINGSTON WILL WIN https://m.skybet.com/wrestling/wwe-wrestlemania-35/event/23774941
Now that Kofi is FINALLY confirmed for WrestleMania, although with one more episode of SmackDown
Live to go, that's a dangerous thing to say, we can start thinking about if he's
gonna win the damn belt from Daniel Bryan.
Well, according to betting sites, he is, because they have him as a strong favourite to topple
the vegan villain, finally crowning Kingston and giving the fans what they've so desperately
wanted since Kofi was a last minute replacement in the Elimination Chamber...FICKLE!
SETH ROLLINS WILL WIN Similarly to Kofi, fans of the bettings should
plonk a few dollars or queen elizabeth coins on Seth Rollins, as the kingslayer is favourite
to change his name to the beastslayer by defeating Brock Lesnar.
Of course we've said this at least a hundred times that Brock will lose and leave, but
this time we REAALLLLLLY mean it!
But how will Brock lose?
Could a UFC Champion turn up and cost him the victory?
Well, funny I should ask...
DANIEL CORMIER WILL APPEAR https://wrestletalk.com/news/daniel-cormier-threatens-brock-lesnar-wrestlemania/ A UFC feud has been bubbling under the surface
between Brock Lesnar and Daniel Cormier for some time now, with Brock appearing at UFC
226 and shoving Cormier like the hard man that he is.
In response, Cormier stated in an interview with ESPN
"I may go to WWE's WrestleMania, and I may go cost him his title over there so he
can hurry up and get to the UFC so I can beat him here."
While that's probably just talk, you know the saying.
Never say never and all that.
BRAY WYATT & LUKE HARPER WILL APPEAR https://wrestletalk.com/news/bray-wyatt-shows-off-new-look-ahead-of-potential-wwe-return/
One of my other favourite sayings however is "New hair, new me", which as we all
know is nonsense because I have none.
However, the original saying is actually "New hair because I'm possibly returning at WrestleMania
and I need to look fresh", and was originally spoken by Bray Wyatt.
A photo of Bray with new white locks was shared on social media this week, so the above saying
is very much in play here.
The eater of vacant hasn't been seen on WWE TV since the fall of 2018, and it seems
like he's been scheduled to return every week since, but you know he did return last
year at the Andre the Giant Battle Royal last year, so why not have him do something equally
pointless this year?
Oh yeah, and Luke Harper is in the same position so maybe he and Bray can return together.
ROB GRONKOWSKI WILL APPEAR Remember The Gronk at WrestleMania 33?
Well, expect more of that, as WWE are rumoured to be signing him after he announced his retirement
from the NFL recently.
Maybe he could come out at Mania and attempt to help Mojo Rawley win the Battle Royal again,
only for Mojo to turn on him, setting him up for an epic year-long blood feud culminating
at WrestleMania 36 where the two square off in a running shoulder barge match.
Or, y'know, maybe not.
If his finisher isn't called The Emperor's New Gronk, I'll be sad.
But those are of course just rumours, check out the cold hard facts in the WrestleTalk
news in the video to my right, and you can also check out me and all the other cool people
over on ScreenStalker, so click the other video on the right to be taken over there.
