We're steadily approaching March 2015 which is when Wrestlemania 31 will take place. Now that SummerSlam is over, the chatter will begin to see who will have big matches on the card. Who knew last year's SummerSlam would accurately showcase what we would be expecting in the main event of WrestleMania XXX? It was the climax of the long feud between Bryan and the Authority, which saw Bryan defeat Evolution 2014 all in one night. Will this year's SummerSlam be a progenitor of WrestleMania 31? Let's talk who will be involved.
The dirtsheets are claiming that Roman Reigns VS Brock Lesnar will headline the Showcase of the Immortals. WOW, what a step for Reigns if he can main event in his 3rd WrestleMania. And it will definitely be a risky move for WWE if they do go this route. Daniel Bryan was the first time someone new main evented WrestleMania since Orton closed the show in 2009. Reigns would be in his first mega main event against the man who ended the most prolific streak in professional wrestling. This is big time for Reigns. This is the breakout match. It's funny that it's 10 years after Cena's first WWE Title win at WrestleMania 21. Coincidence? Anyway, it's a match I think the entire WWE Universe wants to see and it would put Reigns in the upper echelon of WWE talent. After that, I'm sure Reigns/Cena would main event SummerSlam 2015. It's going to be hard to keep these two away from each other though. I would like to see Cena/Reigns as the last two in the Royal Rumble to kind of tease the feud, unless they go with Rollings/Reigns. Is it strange to anyone else that they haven't given them the proper feud yet? Maybe it will be a fall thing but that's another classic waiting to happen.
John Cena won't be in the main event of WrestleMania for a 2nd consecutive year, possibly. Cena's role at WM XXX, while could've been much bigger if they had done the match with Taker, was perfect. He went against the sadistic Bray Wyatt and made him look like an absolute star in the process. Cena needs to do the same at WM 31. There are a lot of great up and coming talent Cena can have a good match with. Cena/Rollings my obvious front runner because it would be a classic in the same vein as Cena's great matches with other top indie stars, Daniel Bryan and CM Punk. Rusev is another guy I think will be ready come WrestleMania time. Will it be the classic a Rollings/Cena match could be? No, but Rusev has the look WWE likes so I think a match with the golden boy is only inevitable. A rematch with Daniel Bryan would be awesome to see. They could work off of the recent Bellas fallout, but I think that would mean Cena would be a heel which we all know isn't happening. Speaking of that, Cena recently said it will NEVER happen. Come on man! All the greats did it! All of the top faces of the company turned, Cena is NO different. Once Reigns starts his rise to the top, I think it would be finally the time to pull the trigger. The Raw after WrestleMania would be a good field to do it at. It's the most popular Raw of the year and after this year's edition, that's the only ay it could be topped.
Bray Wyatt has risen to the top of the WWE by feuding with big stars on big stages. He defeated Daniel Bryan during his hot streak at the Royal Rumble. He pushed John Cena to the absolute limit at WrestleMania. He defeated the first ever Undisputed Champion at SummerSlam. The man's on a roll. What could he do at WrestleMania 31? Well, put him against one of the only names he hasn't beaten; The Undertaker. I know I know, Undertaker lost this year and his future with the company is shaky following the brutal match with Lesnar. And it seems everyone and their grandmom wants to see him face Sting at WM 31 but that is pointless. He needs to face someone who represents the future and will take over the supernatural gimmick that has gotten Taker over for years. Will it happen? Probably not but Bray Wyatt needs to face someone that will put him over. While Reigns will be ascending to his throne, Wyatt needs something to do as well because I think those two will be running this era when it's all said and done.
WM 31 is still too far away to call all the matches but you gotta make sure the big players are used effectively. With Reigns and Lesnar already booked together, we still need places for Cena, Bryan, Rollings, Wyatt, Ambrose and Orton. These are just some of the guys of the top of the dome. And maybe we'll get some NXT callups by then? Can you say, Neville VS Rollings?!?
