WrestleMania 36 is almost here and the build-up and the entire feel around this year's Show of Shows have been different than anything seen before. With the world fighting against a pandemic in COVID-19, WWE is trying their level best to put up a show amidst all the difficulties to entertain their fans across the globe.
This year's WrestleMania is set to be a unique one with it being relocated to the Performance Center in an empty-arena and will also span across two days. WWE has a mammoth task in their hands to ensure the success of the show and it all starts with small dos and don'ts.
So with that, let's move forward and take a look at three things that should happen at WrestleMania 36 and three that should not. How excited are you for the most unique edition of the Grandest Stage of them All? Be sure to let us know your views in the comments section below.

#3 Should happen: The Fiend beats John Cena clean
One of the marquee match set to take place at WrestleMania 36 is the encounter between John Cena and the demonic alter ego of Bray Wyatt, The Fiend. Coming off a massive defeat at the hands of Goldberg, Wyatt needs a big victory to make a comeback and the match against the 16-time World Champion provides the opportunity to him to do so.
It was at WrestleMania 30, where the saga between the two started but it was Cena who picked up the victory there, leading to the downfall of Wyatt, in his own words. With the Cenation Leader settling into a part-timer's role in the last few years, it is ideal that he should put over Wyatt and correct WWE's mistake six years ago.

#3 Shouldn't happen: Goldberg retains the Universal Championship
In all likelihood, the match to main-event one of the two nights of WrestleMania 36 will see the Universal Champion Goldberg defend his title against Roman Reigns in what is billed as a Spear vs Spear match.
While many fans weren't thrilled in the way this match was set up with Goldberg defeating The Fiend at Super ShowDown to become the champion, one can't deny the fact that this has a big match feel to it. This is about pride and glory. These are two powerhouses who want to establish their dominance. However only one Superstar should walk out of this match with the title - and that is Roman Reigns.
The Big Dog has been away from the world title scene for quite some time and has considerably improved his in-ring as well as promo skills. A victory against Goldberg would be the ideal passing the torch moment for Reigns, as he is the one who'll carry on the legacy of the Spear. Goldberg retaining the title would be a bad call as he is a part-timer and keeping the title on him for long would make no sense whatsoever.

#2 Should happen: Sasha Banks turns on Bayley
Credit where it's due, Bayley has done a great job as a heel on SmackDown as the Women's Champion. No one imagined the ever-so-adorable Hugger to make fans hate her so convincingly, which proves her versatility as a performer.
Her pairing with Sasha Banks is a classic best feud that has been building up for so long and the WWE Universe can't wait to see either of them turn on the other, in what would be an epic moment.
Paige recently returned to SmackDown to announce Bayley's opponents at WrestleMania as she is set to defend her title in a Fatal 5-Way Elimination Match against Lacey Evans, Tamina, Naomi and... Sasha Banks! It was interesting to see the slight smirk on The Boss' face after the announcement making the WWE Universe wait in anticipation for the moment when she will turn on The Role Model.
With the match having eliminations, I can imagine the former Women's Tag Team Champions to work as a team and take out all the other competitors, leaving them as the final two. Bayley could then demand The Boss to do the right thing and take the pin, setting up for a perfect opportunity for Banks to turn face, defeat The Role Model and become the new SmackDown Women's Champion. The two can then continue their feud post-Mania.
#2 Shouldn't happen: Kevin Owens loses his big match
Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens are two Superstars who've excelled in playing the roles of both a heel and a face during their tenure on the main roster. It was just a year ago when the entire WWE Universe was behind The Beastslayer to defeat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania 35 to capture the Universal Championship. The situation has changed this year as the Monday Night Messiah is one of the biggest heels on the WWE Roster.
Talking about Kevin Owens, he was also a heel not long ago, but his recent stint on RAW as a babyface has been one of his best runs on the main roster. Arguably the biggest babyface on the brand after Drew McIntyre, KO is set to take on Rollins at WrestleMania in a Grudge match.
Recently on RAW, the Monday Night Messiah cut an impressive promo mentioning his terrific record on The Grandest Stage Of Them All and then compared it to the record of Owens, which doesn't stand out as much. This sets up for a proper platform to give KO a big WrestleMania victory. Rollins does not need this victory as much and Owens losing would not be a good call from WWE.
#1 Should happen: Edge is the Last Man Standing in his fight with Randy Orton
The return of Edge at Royal Rumble 2020 will go down as one of the best moments in the history of the company. Almost nine years after retiring from in-ring competition due to his injury, the Rated-R Superstar is back and looks to be in the best shape of his life.
The rivalry between him and Randy Orton is hands down my favorite feud heading into this year's WrestleMania as the two veterans have left no stones unturned. With the Viper portraying his role as a sadistic heel to perfection, this is a perfect comeback match for Edge.
The bout, which has now been made official, has a special stipulation added to it as it will be a Last Man Standing match, meaning we can expect these two to tear each other apart. The rightful winner of this match has to be Edge as he needs to take his revenge on the Apex Predator for trying to end his career. Can we see a special guest referee added to the match as well?
#1 Shouldn't happen: Becky Lynch defeats Shayna Baszler
Becky Lynch created history last year at WrestleMania 35 as she became one of the three Superstars to be in the first-ever women's WrestleMania main event. If that was not all, she walked out of Metlife Stadium as both RAW and SmackDown Women's Champion. Fast forward a year, and she still carries the RAW title with her, having run through the entire Women's roster on the Red brand.
Enter, Shayna Baszler! The former NXT Women's Champion has had quite a showing on the main roster. After emerging victorious at Survivor Series, Baszler entered the Royal Rumble at No. 30 and almost went on to win the whole thing before being eliminated by Charlotte Flair.
It was at the recently concluded Elimination Chamber PPV where the Queen of Spades had a dominating showing as she went on to eliminate all the other competitors to win the match and earn a shot at The Man at WrestleMania. There's no doubt that she is the biggest threat to Lynch's title to date and should be the one to dethrone her and become the new RAW Women's Champion.
Becky defeating Baszler would be a "Bad for Business" decision in many ways and the company should not let that happen at any cost.
