    Mod Note 3rd April: While obviously everyone wants to talk Mania, we'd ask people NOT to talk about betting odds in this thread. Often times, they go well beyond speculation and into concrete spoiler territory (as opposed to spoilers which might change on the day, etc). We have a seperate thread for people who want to discuss Wrestling odds.

    Only a few days really. After the Rumble I'm sure there will be people looking beyond the next PPV and wanting to discuss Mania

    Think this is the time. Brock will be heading to the UFC after Mania I would imagine, when is his wwe contract up? Heyman is too good a character to leave off TV, him and Seth would be excellent together.

    Thats why you need the MITB match at Mania, to fit in 6-8 top guys who don't have anything important going on at Mania, the rest of the roster can be in the battle royal

    With so much top talent on the card and even a 5 hour Mania can only have so much, it makes far more sense at Mania for me

    Just thinking the best booking for the women going into WM for me would be having Sasha & Bailey win the Tag Belts early in the PPV then have Charlotte beat Asuka mid card and finally have Becky beat Ronda in the main event after a Ronda's 4 Horse women interfere only for Sasha, Bailey & Charlotte run in and run them off and the show closes with the WWE 4 Horse Women all standing tall holding up their belts staring down Ronda and her Horse Women on the ramp.

    While not all in singles competition, he's already faced all three Shield members at Mania. The Ambrose match at Mania 32. Reigns at Mania 31 and 34. And he took on Rollins and Reigns in the main event of Mania 31.

    Any signs they will added to the card ?

    Meltzer says Cena is likely in some form (he was original booked for a match against Lars Sullivan, before that fell through) but Taker isn't.

    It's 5 weeks away so he needs to get a move on if he wants a match

    Not really. It’ll probably be a throw away match anyway so it can be sorted out pretty quickly. I could see him wanting to put over one of the guys they’ve brought up from NXT. Aleister Black maybe.

    Post Fastlane they'll ramp up an extra notch with matches for Mania. Thrills and spills galore on Raw the next night imo.

    Stupid having two PPVs between Rumble and Mania, I'd have none and just build from post Rumble to Mania but apparently our attention spans aren't that long any more and we have to be over-saturated with PPVs that mean nothing in larger context :(

    I'd have one between the rumble and mania so as to advance what was started at the rumble but enough space to let the feuds build. When mania used to be in march there was no time or need for two PPVs. At least it's not like it was post second brand spit. Christ I don't know about anyone else but I stopped watching nxt for a bit because with two ppvs a month plus raw and smackdown it was too much. No need for it.

    I hope the undertaker is no where near a ring ever again. And cena I could take or leave him being part of wrestlemania. I'm not a fan of him really.

    The entire Shield have been announced as teaming to take on McIntyre and the lads for Fastlane, so i'd say it'd be a good shout now for Roman to at least be in a tag

    Id have a heel Roman vs Ambrose at mania but more likely it will the 2 of them teaming up too take on 2 of Corbin, Elias, Lashley and Mcintrye

    The ways its going the mens section of mania could close with the shield in the ring for the final time

    well newest rumour is roman vs
    corbin
    which would be so underwheleming.

    just do tag match with ambrose vs the revival if nothing big planned for and you get yourself a great match

    It seems the undertaker is not that keen on a wrestlemania match this year which I'm all for and I say that as a huge undertaker fan since the 1990's. He has nothing left to prove in the wrestling business. He's a sure fire HOFer in any of the pro wrestling ones. I hope this is him realising that it's time to hang up the hat.

    The graph lines behind it, at least in the image on the first post, makes it really easy to see once pointed out

    First Vince took our numbers

    Now he's taken our symmetry

    Now that Fastlane is over, I was trying to predict the upcoming mania card.

    We now have for definite: Becky v Ronda v Charlotte and Seth v Brock. (2)

    I'm assuming Triple H v Batista, Styles v Orton, DB v Kofi, Crusierwieight Match and Miz V Shane all based on current actions. Finn should be defending the belt seeing as he missed out at fastlane, (I'm presuming a multi -man match unless there is a favoured opponent), asuka should have a match at least, Possible Joe match v Cena (based on the R-Truth thingy and Joe's promos).

    Thats at least 10 matches without even taking into account the tag scene. There could be 3 tag title matches.

    Then we have the andre and womens battle royals, meaning a possible 15 matches.

    My question is where do the likes of Kevin Owens, Mustafa Ali, Rey Myesterio, Andrade, Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley, Braun Strowman, Kurt Angle and Baron Corbin fit into the event? They've all had title matches or featured spots recently but I cant see any of this lot only wrestling in the battle royals.

    Reigns and Ambrose also, where do they fit in? They definitely wont be sitting out the event, (well reigns anyway).

    The card is going to look stacked, although with the lack of an Undertaker entrance, I can see where they'd get the time to fit in a couple of extra matches.

    im not sure what the card will be other than i think the assured ones.

    Becky/charlotte/ronda

    Seth/Brock

    Trips/batista

    Orton/Aj

    Miz/shane

    i think there for sure happening the rest of these are guesses

    DBvs Kofi vs owens vs Ali think there headed that direction

    roman/ambrose - roman wants to have a mania moment with his brother

    Balor/drew/lashley/corbin/elias and another face in ladder match

    Joe/Cena

    revival/ricochet & black

    usos/ hardys

    2 battle royals
