WrestleMania 35: Predicting the 5 biggest moments of the night

WrestleMania is just days away.
WrestleMania is just days away.

Happy WrestleMania weekend! The Show of Shows is less than two days away and the excitement is through the roof. The card for this year's WrestleMania is so incredibly stacked. It is one of the most stacked cards in history. WWE has currently booked sixteen matches for the entire evening, Kickoff Show included, and it is going to be a really long show. Possibly the longest pay-per-view in WWE history.

The live crowd at MetLife Stadium will surely have a gruelling night in front of them, but one which will be filled with the magnificence and of WrestleMania. A night that will be littered with countless moments that will live on history. This WrestleMania, in particular, has the potential to be the happiest one of all time. Hopefully, WWE gives the fans those feel-good moments that will make it the happiest 'Mania of all time.

With thirteen matches over at least five and a half hours on the main show, here are five of the biggest moments that could possibly happen at WrestleMania 35.


New Champs in WWE! More RIGHT HERE

#5 John Cena returns and gives Kurt Angle one final classic

There is still hope.
There is still hope.

As it stands, Baron Corbin is still scheduled to be Kurt Angle's final opponent at WrestleMania 35. It is hard to believe that it will remain that way and Angle will bow out following a match with Corbin. John Cena, who would never miss WrestleMania for anything in the world, even with a shoulder injury, could still come in and save the day. This is the only place, aside from another spot which is reserved for somebody else, on the entire WrestleMania which could feasibly accommodate an appearance from the 16-time champ.

Kurt Angle could still face Corbin and beat him in a throwaway match before Cena comes out and challenges him to one final confrontation. Alternatively, Cena could simply show up, attack Corbin and replace him. Either way, John Cena giving Kurt Angle one more classic should be the way to go. It wouldn't even need to be that long, especially given Angle's worsening condition. A 10-minute match featuring all of their greatest hits would provide fans with the nostalgia of when Cena's career first started, at the time when Angle's career is ending.

#4 The Undertaker interrupts Elias and destroys him

The Deadman could still show up.

The other spot at WrestleMania where John Cena could appear would be Elias's headline musical act. The Drifter has promised the concert of a lifetime for WrestleMania and is guaranteed to be interrupted by a returning legend.

The best fit for this role is not Cena, it is the Undertaker. WrestleMania would not be the same without the Deadman and there hasn't been one without him since 2000. All he would need to do is walk slowly to the ring, intimidate Elias and beat him up afterwards.

For the second year in a row, the Undertaker is not advertised for WrestleMania. So the sound of the gong would surely pop the fans in attendance. Just seeing 'Taker show up would be a "Holy s***" moment in itself.

He might even have a match with Elias, a straightforward squash victory like last year. Elias gets the rub from facing the Undertaker in front of 80,000 people and everybody is happy after seeing the Deadman return at the Show of Shows.

#3 Seth Rollins slays the Beast once and for all

WrestleMania repeat?
WrestleMania repeat?

This is the first of the three biggest championship matches on the card. All three of them have a challenger who is the clear crowd favourite. Everybody will be rooting for these babyfaces.

The first of them is Seth Rollins, who might be the unlikeliest one to win his respective title. However, WrestleMania should be all about feel-good moments and these moments have been extremely scarce at the top of the card for a very long time now. This moment is also long overdue.

The Brock Lesnar Universal title reign has run its course for a while now and for the sake of the credibility of the belt, Seth Rollins must win on Sunday. Despite a less prominent build, Rollins and Lesnar are both more than capable of putting on a match that would rival anything on the show.

After victories in classics against the likes of CM Punk, AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan, the Beast will finally fall to a smaller wrestler. Rollins has previously won the world championship from Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania but this time, it would be much more definitive.

#2 Becky Lynch becomes the Double Champ

The Man will end WrestleMania on top.
The Man will end WrestleMania on top.

WrestleMania 35 will be headlined by the first-ever women's main event in WrestleMania history. Becky Lynch will take on Raw Women's Champion Ronda Rousey and SmackDown Women's Champion Charlotte Flair in a triple threat match, where both titles will be on the line.

It isn't a unification match per se, but the victor will hold two championships, possibly having separately acknowledged title reigns for each of them. There can only be one winner to this match, and that is Becky Lynch.

Since WrestleMania is closing with this match, the final shot must be a positive one. Becky Lynch will represent the positive vibes inside MetLife Stadium when she overcomes everything to win both the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships.

This would be the perfect end to a long-drawn story filled with confusing plot devices and shifts in the angle, a culmination of the spectacular year the Man has had.

#1 Kofi Kingston finally wins the WWE Championship

This all will be worth it.
This all will be worth it.

Speaking of shifts in the angle, Kofi Kingston's ascent to face Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship forced him to jump through so many hoops. The promos cut between the New Day, Daniel Bryan and even Vince McMahon have reignited the magic of a crowd-uniting babyface challenging for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania. The moment is coming. It is. This will be the biggest WrestleMania moment of the night, slightly above Becky Lynch winning the main event.

Kofi Kingston has been in the WWE for eleven years and has consistently been one of the finest in-ring workers throughout the tenure. However, bar a small while in 2009, he has hardly sniffed the main event scene in WWE.

That was until he got a lucky break heading into Elimination Chamber, after replacing Mustafa Ali in the match. Kofi got so over with the crowd and this story has only gotten more and more interesting. For all the stuff said and implied about him and his New Day brothers, Kofi Kingston must win the title.

Daniel Bryan himself has played a stellar part in this story. He has turned his back against everything that he stood for five years ago at WrestleMania 30, even calling Kofi a 'B-plus player'. This story has been magnificent, and it just requires the perfect ending. Kofi Kingston finally winning the WWE Championship will be the greatest moment at WrestleMania 35, as well as one of the greatest moments in recent 'Mania history.
