WWE WrestleMania 32 Conspiracy Theories

Returning the favour

The sequel’s dueCelebrity brings upon itself abnormal scrutiny. In fact, it would be an injustice to a famous person or occurrence if there weren't enough tongues awag in its wake. Face facts; UFOs, Yetis and what they put in KFC Chicken would all be vapid if not for the wide-eyed masses that trawl the interweb for anything to spike their adrenaline levels.Wrestling, or the WWE rather, is no different. The locker rooms and backstage corridors have engendered a never-ending trail of breadcrumbs for the faithful to hound in search of their Holy Grail. The most prominent in recent memory is the Undertaker's Streak ending at WrestleMania 30, which spawned a number of hypothesis' involving everyone from a referee's evil twin to the President of the United States. This WrestleMania is no different. A soon as the winds heralded the arrival of the season, all of the WWE's Madam Trelawney-resembling acolytes crawled out of the woodwork and began ritualistically studying whatever's transpired upto this moment, trying to sate their appetite for the esoteric. After weighing a number of them, here's what we think are worth whispering

#5 Repping for Texas

Returning the favour

New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

So WWE Creative haven’t treated us completely like brainless masses with no sliver of self-will or reason. Undertaker has been showing signs of his version of humanity by trying to shatter Mr. McMahon’s brittle self to bits.

But the Chairman of the WWE isn’t going to forget his champion’s audacity, even if he is the Phenom. After the victory is secured, the Mephisophelian McMahon proceeds to beat down the Taker with a concealed weapon or even better, by directing any of the rudderless mid-carders hoping to be thrown a line.

Glass shatters and the Rattlesnake comes stomping into his backyard. Stunner here, Stunner there, Stunner everywhere and the last one, specially made for Vince, sends the CEO into the Undertaker’s vice grip and a thunderous Chokeslam follows. Not too far fetched to imagine two of Texas’ most famous wrestlers drenched in beer and celebrating in Dallas, is it?

#4 Suspension to animation

Payback!

The WWE are known for playing cards close to the chest, but even spooks would be proud if they pulled this off. With the WWE World Heavyweight Championship becoming pariah, the spotlight’s swung on to the other two huge matches. The Lesnar-Ambrose match is self-powering, but the Shane vs Taker contest?

Can the chances be discounted of Titus returning from his “suspension” that was mysteriously reduced from 90 to 60 days, to almost coinciding with WrestleMania, give or take a few days. The former Tag Team Champion hits the Clash of the Titus on Taker and makes off, with Vince watching on with head buried in his hands.

#3 Baby got GoldBack

Now this would be a feud

We won’t apologize for the title, because poindexters might interpret it as a super-gorilla, or a gorilla on steroids, which is what these guys are. Ever since Ryback decided the minimalist look was in vogue, he’s been greeted with chants of “Goldberg” when he walks out.

The Big Guy is feuding with United States Champion Kalisto and a match at WrestleMania is all but official. There are murmurs that the Lucha Dragons are headed for a split. So, a Sin Cara interruption ripping their fabric is a no-brainer.

A new United States Champion might be a foregone conclusion, but an even ruder interruption might embody itself in the former WWE Champion skewering Ryback to give Kalisto a lifeline.

#2 Left heartbroken by The Rock

5...4...3...2...1

The Rock, Shawn Michaels and Stone Cold Steve Austin have all been confirmed for WrestleMania. So now begins the riddle of their role in Dallas. Reports have stated that The Rock has been granted creative control of his character although this more than likely is in reference to his freedom with the mic.

All the signs seem to point to Shawn Michaels interfering in the Roman Reigns – Triple H match, with the Rock coming out to make the save. We’re certainly not patting ourselves on the back for deciphering that, but from all the chatter about a heel turn, we took a shot at what’s next.

Roman Reigns Spearing Triple H, pinning him, spearing Shawn Michaels and then, fighting through the fog of boos and spearing his cousin, The Rock! And then, he does a 3:16 to the Universe and walks off with the belt on his shoulder.

#1 Simba! He\'s alive!!!

Technically, I win!

The only bone of contention here is if the Undertaker losing to Shane is worth it. However, having poured over the fine print, we’ve come to the unimaginable but possible conclusion that Shane could actually take control of RAW.

Remember, all Vince said was that Shane had to have one match. With the Undertaker. At WrestleMania. Hell in a Cell. There was no mention of a win, Vince was in such a trance of relishing the idea that he didn’t say Shane had to win. Just survive. Which he might. Take a look:
