The WWE has already rounded out some of the biggest matches on the card for WrestleMania 31 on March 29 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., but a lot of the lineup is still up in the air.

Two of the marquee matches already announced for WrestleMania 31 include Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and an Icon vs. Icon match pitting "The Vigilante" Sting vs. "The Game" Triple H.
There have been two other bouts announced as Bad News Barrett will defend his Intercontinental Championship in a Ladder Match against opponents to be determined and the WWE will put on the second annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal.

While these matches haven't been officially made, it appears as though Bray Wyatt vs. The Undertaker and John Cena vs. Rusev II for the United States Championship will also be added to the card.
With those six matches in the fold, we'll delve into some other bouts that could be added to the card.
It appears as though the Daniel Bryan vs. Dolph Ziggler match that was teased for the show has been scrapped in favor of the Ladder Match, which is likely to also include R-Truth and Dean Ambrose.
To make it an even six participants, I could see a heel Sheamus being thrown into the mix to shift the heel-face ratio.
Another match that seems destined to occur is Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton as it looks like the WWE is taking a slow build approach to having Orton eventually turn on The Authority and go full-on babyface before meeting "Mr. Money in the Bank" at WrestleMania 31.
Over in the tag division, the WWE could use most of the teams in the battle royal, while a long-term feud between The Usos and Cesaro & Tyson Kidd would be a good thing for the belts.
The company has featured Total Divas stars Naomi and Natalya heavily in this feud, so I foresee a six-person mixed tag match with the belts on the line.
As for the Divas division, it's unknown if AJ Lee's tweets toward Stephanie McMahon were legitimate, but the WWE has a big money feud between the two sides if they can see eye-to-eye behind the scenes.
If Lee came back and won the Divas Championship for the fourth time and McMahon vowed to destroy her for embarrassing her on Twitter, these two could clash in a Lumberjill Match for the gold. The other Divas would surround the ring to get some face-time at the biggest show of the year.
The WWE would also have the CM Punk back story to allude to if it needed to.
The final blow off for the Goldust and Stardust feud could also occur here.
