5 WrestleMania rematches that could happen in WWE at WrestleMania 36

As we are approaching the end of 2019, WWE must start focusing on plans for WrestleMania. It is the biggest show of the year and everything on it must be done with a purpose. There are a lot of exciting possibilities for this coming Show of Shows, involving various Superstars. But there are some matches from past WrestleManias, that could happen again.

In the past, quite a few match pairings have taken place at two different 'Mania events. In some cases, they even happened a year apart. The likes of Shawn Michaels vs The Undertaker and Bret Hart vs Yokozuna spring to mind, among various others. This year also has some similar possibilities, whether that match happened last year of five years ago.

It is always interesting when a past WrestleMania match is re-made for the Grandest Stage of Them All, providing some rich storytelling possibilities. Here are five WrestleMania rematches that could happen at the Raymond James Stadium this April.

#5 Bray Wyatt vs John Cena

Putting him down, once and for all?

This is probably the unlikeliest match on this list because of John Cena's busy schedule. However, the 16-time world champion does make a point to show up at WrestleMania every year. So maybe, this coming spring, he could spare a couple of Friday nights and show up to challenge "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt.

Carrying on with Wyatt's current theme of going after everybody who wronged him, WrestleMania XXX springs to mind. That was the night where the Eater of Worlds began to lose his momentum, as Cena overcame him. The story would be simple, really.

The part-time hero returns on SmackDown and proclaims his interest in winning his record-breaking 17th world title. It would also be his first Universal title match. Cena knows how to drive stories. Another piece of history between him and Wyatt is that Cena's last reign ended at the hands of the former Wyatt Family leader.

Again, this is an unlikely match for WrestleMania 36. There are other possibilities for The Fiend, including another story of 'Hurting' and 'Healing'.

#4 Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch

Big-time rematch?

If a match is so well-received on a large scale at a WrestleMania, WWE does book that same match again at the next year's annual extravaganza. 2019's main event was met with a mainly positive response, aside from the late hours and the controversial finish. So it is not completely out of the question for this very match to happen again.

Becky Lynch has not lost the RAW Women's Championship since capturing the belt in this main event and Ronda Rousey is yet to show up in a WWE ring since then. However, it looks extremely likely that the Baddest Woman on the Planet will return in time for WrestleMania 35.

While booking a one-on-one rematch between the two megastars may be the most exciting option, the company might just want to ensure things remain in control. Which is why they could feasibly involve Charlotte Flair again. She even carried the main event of WrestleMania 35, according to Corey Graves on WWE's After the Bell podcast.

The Queen is now on RAW and will team with The Man to take on the Kabuki Warriors for the Women's Tag Team Championships in a TLC Match this Sunday, but there will be broader plans for both horsewomen. Charlotte is too big of a name to be saddled in the Kickoff Show Battle Royal, which is why WWE inserts her in another possible Becky vs Ronda match.

#3 Seth Rollins vs Randy Orton

A solid match.

In the past month or so, both Seth Rollins and Randy Orton switched their alignments. Orton transitioned into a babyface, teaming with Ricochet and helping Rey Mysterio win the United States Championship. On the other hand, Rollins embraced the dark side and completed his heel turn on Kevin Owens this week on RAW.

It feels like the dynamic between these two remains the same. Orton and Rollins faced each other close to five years ago at WrestleMania, in a match that delivered quite brilliantly. It will forever be remembered for that sensational Curb Stomp-to-RKO counter.

A WrestleMania rematch between the former Authority stablemates could happen if Rollins finishes up with Owens before the Show of Shows. He should, as KO would be a great opponent for Brock Lesnar. Meanwhile, the Viper is in a mini-program with AJ Styles. These are two Superstars who are seemingly guaranteed big-time one-on-one WrestleMania matches, so why not put them together again?

Randy Orton seems motivated every time he is working with the best and as a heel, there is hardly anyone better than Seth Rollins. This would honestly be a welcome addition to the 'Mania card. One thing though, they would need to better that ridiculous RKO from 2015.

#2 Bray Wyatt vs The Undertaker

An iconic moment

Keeping with the WrestleMania 31 theme, Bray Wyatt and the Undertaker had a painfully sub-par match that evening. It was the Deadman's first WWE appearance since the Streak died a year ago. 'Taker got the better of Wyatt in 2015 not once, but twice. The Brothers of Destruction handily defeated the Wyatt Family at Survivor Series of that year, in celebration of 25 years of the Undertaker.

That means we have some meaty history which could come into play, as "The Fiend" surveys his next targets. This would be an incredible spectacle if nothing else. The Deadman looking across the ring to see the new, and this time for real, Face of Fear.

The match wouldn't even have to be good, as long as the story is told effectively. There's something about The Fiend retiring the Deadman that just makes it sound perfect. Bray Wyatt could even use the 'Heal' glove to end The Undertaker, to symbolize him healing from all the pain he has suffered in a WWE ring.

Whether or not the Undertaker decides to finally retire, putting over new stars is something that he would certainly be keen on doing. Also, The Fiend should have a title reign longer than five months before the inevitable title change with Roman Reigns. Give that some more time.

#1 Sheamus vs Daniel Bryan

These two can put on a show, for sure.

This match has happened twice at WrestleMania, including a pre-show match that turned into a Battle Royal. Daniel Bryan and Sheamus were even scheduled to face each other at WrestleMania XXX before WWE mercifully relented to the fans and inserted Bryan into the WWE Championship picture. This time around, it is a genuine possibility.

Daniel Bryan is currently wrapped up with "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and the Universal Championship, with the blowoff match likely for Royal Rumble. After that, Bryan's WrestleMania prospects are an open book. Meanwhile, Sheamus is on the cusp of returning and has threatened to take over Friday Night SmackDown. He even has his old hair back.

This is a high profile match of sorts, especially if there are some stakes added to it. After finishing off with The Fiend, Bryan could win the Intercontinental Championship from Shinsuke Nakamura and then defend it against the Celtic Warrior at WrestleMania. It is guaranteed to be a great match, provided they get more than 18 seconds.

Also, throw in the fact that the IC Title is the only one left for Sheamus to win in WWE and it makes for a very interesting scenario. Out of all the possibilities WWE could choose, this may be one of the better Intercontinental title matches for the 'Grandest Stage Of Them All'.
