The WrestleMania 31 card is continuing to take shape and the WWE has announced a multi-man Ladder Match for the show while more participants have been revealed for the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.
Countdown to WrestleMania 31: 3 Best Moments From WrestleMania 4
The WWE announced Thursday night that WWE Intercontinental Champion Bad News Barrett will defend his Intercontinental Championship in a multi-Superstar Ladder Match on March 29 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.
The company didn't say who will be in the match, but it did hint that it will be several wrestlers and their identities will be announced over the next couple of weeks.

Coming out of this week's set of shows, it would appear as though Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, Dean Ambrose and R-Truth will be in the match while others could also be added.
Barrett fought Ambrose at Fastlane in a match that saw Barrett win by DQ before Ambrose stole his title. He has also suffered non-title losses to Bryan, Ziggler and R-Truth over the last couple of weeks, so it seems logical they'll all be in the match.
This may be a bit of a letdown to some fans as the WWE teased a Ziggler vs. Bryan one-on-one match and the Superstars campaigned for it earlier this month on Twitter.
Still, it will be nice for some fans to see the Intercontinental Championship to get a high-profile match at the "Show of Shows" and for a multi-man Ladder Match to take place for the first time since 2010 at the event.
The WWE also continued to tease The Undertaker's possible match with Bray Wyatt on WWE.com as a poll is up asking whether or not the "Deadman" should accept the "Eater of Worlds'" challenge.
The poll's choices are the following: "Absolutely, The Deadman never backs down from a bout at The Show of Shows" and, "No way. Last year's WrestleMania should be the final one in The Phenom's legacy."
Wyatt has cut cryptic promos all month and then he revealed at Fastlane that they were about The Undertaker, who hasn't been seen since getting injured and losing The Streak to Brock Lesnar last year at WrestleMania XXX.
The WWE also continued to round up combatants for the second annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal as Fandango and Adam Rose announced they'll join Ryback, Curtis Axel and The Miz in the bout.
