WWE WrestleMania 32 is still far away, but it's never too early to speculate on the card for the biggest show of the year for the WWE.
Ranking The 3 Shield Members A Year After Their Split
WrestleMania 31 emanated just two short months ago, but already rumors are swirling as to what the lineup will look like when the WWE tries to break attendance records at WrestleMania 32 at AT&T Stadium, home of the NFL's Dallas Cowboys, in Texas on April 3, 2016.
With that in mind, Sports World News will take a crack at trying to project six huge marquee matches for the card.
Top 5 Money in the Bank Cash-Ins Ever
"Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Brock Lesnar
For WrestleMania to shatter records, the WWE needs to do something to excite its fans into spending money and packing AT&T Stadium. Austin and Paul Heyman already hinted at this match being a possibility, so it's reasonable to believe that perhaps the Texas Rattlesnake will meet The Beast in the center of the ring.
Austin and Heyman already had some entertaining banter on his WWE Network podcast this week, so fans can only imagine what it would be like if the Hall of Famer and the founder of ECW were to have a war of words leading into one of the biggest matches in wrestling history.
Austin has been lukewarm about returning to the ring for the first time since 2003 in the past, but he has hinted that in front of a huge audience in his home state of Texas he may do it. Now that he and Heyman have laid it out and Lesnar is definitely a part of the WWE going forward, this match could potentially occur at WrestleMania 32.
The Undertaker vs. Sting
It was weird after years of speculation to see The Deadman and The Vigilante on the same show at WrestleMania 31, but in different matches on the card.
It always seemed as though they were destined for a clash at the Show of Shows, but the WWE opted to have The Undertaker overcome Bray Wyatt and Sting fall to Triple H in his WWE debut.
With both men currently residing in Texas and neither one of them getting any younger, the window for them to square off in an Icon vs. Icon match that harkens back to the Monday Night Wars between WCW and WWE is closing. It would only make sense for them to clash at WrestleMania 32.
It could be seen as a last hoorah for both men and it will finally put to bed the speculation of what would happen if these two crossed paths. Sting losing to Triple H left a sour taste in the mouths of many WWE fans and his time in a WWE ring shouldn't be limited to that defeat.
John Cena vs. Hulk Hogan
This bout would depend on Hogan's health and the ability for him to pass a physical, so as always it's up in the air. Still, The Hulkster has been training hard and looks to be in decent shape while he's hell bent on one final match.
Cena has been out of the main event scene in the last few WrestleManias, which is good for Cena-haters but also good because he's enough of a draw that it's an added attraction to see him wrestle outside of the title picture.
The storyline also writes itself with the past face of the WWE in Hogan, who made WrestleMania into what it is, against the present face of the franchise in Cena, who has carried the promotion and its No. 1 show on his back for over the last decade.
The Rock vs. Triple H
The WWE hinted at this match last fall and things escalated between the two at WrestleMania 31. Whether Ronda Rousey is allowed to participate and make it a mixed tag team match involving Stephanie McMahon remains to be seen, but perhaps "Rowdy" could second the People's Champion to the ring.
These two stars have transcended wrestling throughout the years and it would be a fitting conclusion to their rivalry for them to have one final match in 2016.
The Rock vs. Triple H never happened at WrestleMania in a singles contest, with the closest thing being a Fatal 4 Way Match at WrestleMania 2000 that also involved Big Show and Mick Foley and boiled down to the Brahma Bull and The Game.
One final bout between these two will put a bow on one of the greatest rivalries in WWE history.
The Bella Twins vs. Trish Stratus & Lita
This match was talked about a few months back with Hall of Famers Lita and Stratus both saying they're willing to return to take on the Bella Twins. Nikki & Brie have also addressed the potential contest and said they'd be willing to battle Team Bestie in Texas.
With the WWE looking to make the Divas have more importance, this would be a good way to achieve that by having two of the best Divas to ever grace a WWE ring take on two of the top Divas presently in the company.
WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Roman Reigns
These former Shield stablemates have been a force in different ways since they split up, but they've never all clashed with each other at the same time aside from a Fatal 4 Way match that also included Randy Orton.
The WWE could use its star-studded past with The Rock, The Undertaker, Triple H, Austin, Hogan and more to hype up the event, but its future should be on full display in the main event.
The three former Hounds of Justice members should be given a platform to shine in a Triple Threat Match with the richest prize in the game on the line.
The bout would steal the show and help a storyline that at that point will be two years in the making come full circle in one epic main event battle between former friends.
If I were booking, The Authority would do everything it could to keep the gold on Rollins for a year and Reigns and Ambrose would each earn their way into the main event, with one of them ending Rollins' reign at the same event it started at.
WrestleMania 32 won't come around until 2016, but these six matches could make the show into something really special.
