So far we have three matches that are set. If you did not see Raw (2/22) this may have spoilers for you.

So yeah, we have the obvious HHH vs Reigns match. I kinda figured this was going to happen and it should be good though I think that HHH will be cheered way more than Reigns which is sad... It is not what they want to happen but I still think it will. Dallas loved heels.

No Stone Cold segment has been set up but I would imagine there will be one with him back stage. Also, the Rock is going to be there in some shape or form, I suspect as a ref somewhere... maybe with the USOs? idk

Next up we have the surprise of Undertaker vs Shane which can be a solid match so long as Shane is in shape for it. I am hoping it is a great one but even if it is OK, the Shane appearance is refreshing. Hell in a Cell match as well. Mark-able moments be markin'.

And finally... Brock vs Ambrose in a street match. This to me is going to be the match to watch and the match of the night. I don't care what people are saying... Even with Shane's return, this match is going to be amazing and I am actually looking forward to WM now because of it.

If there are already set matches I missed, mention them below.

And yeah... How you feeling about how Wrestle Mania is shaping up thus far?

Never had any doubt it was going to be horrible, but it's shaping up in the best possible way. Roman vs Triple H is going to be good, but sadly the crowd will eat Roman alive.

Three matches announced, and all three have the potential to be MOTN.

Honestly, Wrestlemania 32 will go down in the history books as nothing short of a miracle. How on earth they'll be able to pull this show off is beyond me.

Between coming off an awful 2015 and some unproductive booking and no heels anywhere close to the ME and no top babyface and a bajillion injuries and bringing back limited star power and the disaster that was Fast Lane and the Hashtag Divas Revolution and the Authority still being a thing and no callups in sight and... Been calling so many times that the whole appeal of WM32 will only be the disaster of having "this shit show follow NXT"... This show is going to be able to hold it's own after all!

Said in the other thread that switching the belt could save the show, but changing the main event works, too.
If the company is on the line, Shane 'o Mac facing Undertaker is the main event. (You can't have Triple H lose the company and then go on to wrestle later, can you?)
You got a hot angle and a much-needed dose of unpredictability for a business starving for it, to go with what should be a emotional match. Screw ringwork for this, we have a story! Finally!
Not just that, but is there any way the finish won't be something in highlight videos from years to come? Shane may dive off the damn video board in JerryWorld

It also gets the pressure off Roman if the focus isn't all about him. Reigns vs Triple H not being the main event will get a lot of the rabid fire, hijackings, fear... All the negativity away from this match. Trips is still going in as the babyface of course, but much like almost every Roman Reigns PPV match in 2015 it'll be shockingly really good and an asset to the show. If Seth does a runin for Trips to retain...

Dean Ambrose vs Brock Lesnar will kick ten thousand asses! And if Ambrose can slay the Beast... :yay: Can totally see them pulling out all the stops and getting creative here. Hoping "Creative" doesn't mean "Exploding TV" this time, that's the only issue.

Charlotte vs Sasha vs Becky in the Divas' Division that just can not die, the Divas' Revolution should have killed any chance of this, but finally the girls get a chance to make a name for themselves.

AJ Styles vs Kevin Owens doesn't need words over here... Then Sami Zayn officially debuts the next night... Yay

Whatever thing they do with Amell and Stardust will be a decent buffer and maybe Amell will do more stuff in the ring. My kingdom for a Jon Stewart cameo.

Hoping the jobber battle royal leads to something good, and a tag team turmoil thingie on the pre-show can keep the one bad match that could happen (League of Potatoes vs New Day) off the card.

I'm at a 9/10 with this, but do realize WWE can easily screw this up at a moment's notice.

They've filled a lot of gaps pretty well given the circumstances. I think it's shaping up to be pretty damn good.

The only thing they need to do now is have rock battle Austin in a buried alive match and were set.

Despite the stand outs, sounds like Vince wrote the card while taking a dump

They're doing well with what they have. Let's not forget how stacked the card would have been if it hadn't been for a plague of injuries and other unforeseen circumstances: The Rock, Ronda Rousey, John Cena, Sting, Randy Orton, and Seth Rollins to go with Brock Lesnar, HHH, The Undertaker, Roman Reigns, Dean Ambrose, Chris Jericho, Bray Wyatt, etc.... It could have potentially been the greatest/most memorable Wrestlemania of all time.

So far I think it's fine. Although I really don't want Reigns to get the belt back, the match with HHH should be good anyway. Ambrose vs Lesnar could be amazing and the Hell in a Cell could be pretty good too. All.3 matches could make it interesting.

Honestly I thought last year's Mania was going blow and it ended up being, in my opinion, the best one ever. So I'm going to mostly withhold judgment until it's on.

Agree completely. Mania 31 shocked the hell out of me.

There's no reason it should of. The build up sucked tremendously, but I was one of the few saying how the card was still great in itself and that it could be a memorable event for that reason.

Terrible so far.. Only thing that has my attention is Reigns vs. Triple H, really don't care about Shane vs. Undertaker, Ambrose/Lesnar or this ridiculous divas storyline.. There's still 5/6 weeks though, things could pick up soon.
