WrestleMania 35: 5 Unexpected Things That Could Happen At The PPV

Modified Mar 28, 2019 21:57 GMT

WrestleMania is the biggest event of the year and with that, it carries a certain amount of expectations. Many surprises have happened at The Show of Shows over the years, such as the Hardy Boyz returning at WM33, Austin turning heel at 'Mania X-Seven and Nicholas winning the Raw Tag Titles with Braun Strowman just last year at WM34.

This year's card leaves a lot of room for surprises even though it will be around seven or eight hours, including the pre-show. Elias' concert leaves room for an interruption and who's to say we won't see our fair share of surprise results?

The Mania card is looking pretty good right now but if any of these 5 things happen, it could make the show even better, or in some cases, significantly worse. And no, CM Punk isn't coming back. Still, there's a 0.0001% chance though. So maybe.

#5 Bray Wyatt returns

Bray Wyatt has not been seen in WWE since he and Matt Hardy dropped the Raw Tag Team Titles to The B-Team. A return for Wyatt seemed likely but with only one set of TV's left until 'Mania, a return seems less and less likely. Even though it was just announced that he and ring announcer Jojo are expecting a baby, he doesn't actually have to give birth, as shocking as this may be to you.

That's a joke by the way. It is possible that Bray could return on the post-mania Raw or Smackdown or the next week at the Superstar Shakeup, but why not return at WrestleMania instead? Whether it's interrupting Elias or saving someone from a beatdown, why not have Bray return in a big spot on the Grandest Stage of Them All.

Maybe, he will be a babyface or maybe, just maybe, he will run a successful cult this time. Probably not though let's be honest.

#4 Finn Balor brings The Demon

Finn Balor vs Bobby Lashley is one of the less appealing matches on this year's WrestleMania card. But, there is a way to get the crowd more into it.

Finn coming out as The Demon and defeating Bobby in a few minutes could be a short but effective way of putting the belt back on Balor. After all these years this could finally be the time for Finn to have the coolest mania entrance ever and wow the New Jersey crowd.

#3 Rob Gronkowski makes a surprise appearance

Gronk was a tight end for the New England Patriots and won 3 Superbowl's in his 9-year career but retired very recently. Now Mojo Rawley's friend could be on his way to WWE.

Gronk appeared on the pre-show of WrestleMania 33 in Orlando, Florida, and helped Mojo win the Andre The Giant battle royal. And, he beat up Jinder so that's good. A WWE run could be in his future because as we know, Vince loves himself some big, strong men.

He has had two back surgery's in his NFL career so taking bumps on a regular basis could be an issue but a one-time appearance could still happen.

#2 Corbin defeats Angle

Now hold on a second, let's all stay calm. I don't want this to happen either, but it's possible. It's pretty clear that no one wants Baron Corbin to be the person that retires Kurt Angle but it's happening.

Everyone would rather have Kurt win but it's a definite possibility that Corbin picks up the win to anger the fans at Metlife. Let's hope Vince sees sense and books Kurt to win.

#1 The Rock returns

Will Someone Go One On One With The Great One?

The Rock has not appeared at WrestleMania since WM32 in Dallas, so it has been a while for The Great One. In his last appearance, he beat poor Erick Rowan in 6 seconds, so that probably won't be the last match we get out of him.

With Elias' concert, it seems made for an interruption and Dwayne is the perfect pick considering his musical exploits in the past. He has previously performed a few rock concerts on Raw to entertain the crowd.

The Rock sending Elias packing would be a good 'Mania moment and would maybe make all the time Elias will spend on the show worthwhile.
