WrestleMania is one of the biggest shows of WWE. Most of the matches have been officially announced, but there might be a few additions at the last minute. The show is known for providing a lot of surprises and this year will not be any different. One can expect surprises in match results, unexpected segments, or in the form of returns by legends.

This year's WrestleMania will be the most newsworthy in a long time since it is going to feature a retirement match, and a women's division match will be the main event for the first time in WWE's history.

Keeping that in mind, here are six surprises that could happen at WrestleMania.

#6 Bret Hart ringside for women's tag title match

On the latest edition of Raw, it was announced that Hart foundation (Jim Neidhart and Bret Hart) would be inducted in the WWE Hall of Fame this year. This implies "The Hitman" will most likely be present backstage at WrestleMania 35.

There is a fatal-four-way Women's Tag Team Title match where Natalya - who is the daughter of Jim Neidhart - will pair up with Beth Phoenix as challengers. It would be interesting if Hart decides to support Beth and Nattie, especially if they win the belts.


#5 Daniel Bryan defeats Kofi Kingston

At this point of time, most fans believe Kofi Kingston will defeat Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania 35. This result would give Koft his first reign with the WWE Championship after spending more than a decade with the company. It would be a great moment for the event, but that may not be the most prudent decision for the WWE in the long run.

It should not come as a blow to the WWE fans if they watch Bryan squash Kingston easily.

#4 The Undertaker Returns

We are a few days away from WrestleMania, but WWE has not announced a match for one of the biggest names in the history of the biggest show on WWE's calendar - The Undertaker. We know The Deadman cannot pull off a classic match anymore. Even then, it would be a good idea to have him appear in some form on the show.

It is not far-fetched to assume he will be a part of WrestleMania, but his role needs to be decided. Few experts believed he might face Finn Balor, but that is not happening, as Balor will face Bobby Lashley for the Intercontinental Championship.


#3 Brock Lesnar crushes Seth Rollins

Even though fans are tired of seeing Brock Lesnar with the Universal Championship, WWE may decide to stick with The Beast as the main champion of the red brand by having him crush Seth Rollins at WrestleMania 35. It would mainly depend on the nature of Lesnar's participation with the company going forward. Some people are of the opinion that he may fight Daniel Cormier in UFC.

If he decides to remain with WWE for some more time, the company might allow him to keep the title, which would certainly annoy a large portion of the fanbase.

#2 Triple H retires after losing to Batista

Upon his return to WWE, Batista attacked Ric Flair and demanded a match with Triple H. After much deliberation, The Game agreed to fight The Animal. Traditional wrestling logic suggests Triple H will emerge victorious as this might be the last WWE match the 50-year-old Batista ever competes in. It would come as a surprise if WWE decides to shock the WWE Universe and lets Batista win the match, thus putting an end to Triple H's in-ring career.

This could be a short-term outcome, since wrestlers can come out of retirement, or would imply that he is going to be the next boss of WWE once Vince Mcmahon retires as the Chairman.


#1 Charlotte Flair wins the 'Winner Takes All' main event

It was recently announced that the main event of WrestleMania 35 would be the 'Winner Takes All' Women's Championship triple-threat match between Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey, SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair and Royal Rumble winner Becky Lynch. This will be the first ever women's division match to conclude the Showcase of the Immortals.

Becky Lynch has had a meteoric rise, and many believe her to be the odds-on favorite to win and become the double champion, putting an exclamation mark on her successful run since SummerSlam last year. However, going against their fan's expectations, WWE may opt for Charlotte Flair to win the title.
