WWE officials have reportedly been locking in the WrestleMania 31 plans and it appears four big matches are potentially penciled in for the biggest show of 2015 on March 29 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., and that Steve "Sting" Borden and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson are included in the process.
Wrestlingheadlines.com reports that the WWE is working on finalizing the card this week and it appears as though the company has big plans for current stars in Rusev and past stars in The Rock and Sting.
There is no word who will face Sting because it has been reported that Triple H will take on The Rock and "The Game" was one of the people Sting named as to who he would like to face if he were to wrestle a match for the WWE.
The other person Sting wants to face is obviously The Undertaker since it has been a rumored bout for years and Sting has openly stated he wants to wrestle him, but it is unknown if 'Taker will return after getting injured in his WrestleMania XXX match that saw him lose The Streak to Brock Lesnar.
For what it's worth, there were reports of 'Taker telling people he is open to a return for WrestleMania 31 at a recent charity run, but it remains to be seen. While there is no word of who Sting would face, it appears as though he is in the WWE's plans for the Show of Shows.
There have been reports that the WWE has the main event for WrestleMania set in stone and it appears as though it will be Brock Lesnar defending the WWE World Heavyweight Championship against Roman Reigns -- who will likely win the Royal Rumble match.
That bout has been rumored for a long time, and it seems as though it is still the plan despite Reigns being sidelined with an injury since Sept. 20.
Lesnar is rumored to be away from WWE television until January to build toward a Royal Rumble match against Cena for the title, which would be the third time they've faced off since Lesnar won the belt at SummerSlam on Aug. 17.
Regarding Rusev, there are plans in place for him to take on Cena in a high-profile singles match at WrestleMania 31. There are reports that Rusev may cost Cena his match at the Royal Rumble to set up their bout at WrestleMania.
It's still early and things could change, but right now it's unclear how stars such as Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Randy Orton and possibly Daniel Bryan if he's healthy will fit into the biggest show of the year.
Here is the rumored card thus far for WrestleMania 31 in March:
WWE World Heavyweight Championship:
Brock Lesnar (c) vs. Roman Reigns
Singles Match:
Sting vs. Undertaker
*If Undertaker returns and the WWE gets a deal done with Sting.
Singles Match:
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson vs. Triple H
Singles Match:
John Cena vs. Rusev
