There are some rumors that all the four horsewomen of WWE will close WrestleMania 35 holding all the women's titles at the same time.

If this happens then WWE will continue their triumph the following night on Raw, by opening the show with all the four women together celebrating the success of the women's division.

Shane McMahon will be facing The Miz at WrestleMania 35 after he turned on the latter at Fastlane following the loss to The Usos for the SmackDown Tag Team Titles.

It's possible that Shane wins his match at the show of shows, since he has just recently turned heel and WWE would want to make his heel run successful.

The following SmackDown, Shane can introduce Lars Sullivan and order him to take down Miz, this way the rivalry between the duo can continue for the following months.

Velveteen Dream has yet to debut on the main roster, ever since he has returned with his new gimmick, fans have been clamouring to see him on the main roster.

In the past, many NXT stars have debuted after WrestleMania, this year we could see Dream as one of the NXT stars who debuts on the main roster to begin a feud with Samoa Joe.

Joe will defend his United States Title against Rey Mysterio at WrestleMania 35, since he has won the title just last month, he won't lose it so soon. So we can expect Dream to interrupt Joe after the show of shows.


#7 The Undisputed Era debuts and wins Raw Tag Team Titles

The Raw tag team division has been stale for the past one year. Ever since Bray Wyatt and Matt Hardy lost the Raw Tag Team Titles, the division has become lack-luster.

Currently The Revival are the champions and are defending their titles against Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins at WrestleMania 35 which doesn't sound quite exciting.

Whoever walks out as champions after the show of shows should face The Undisputed Era next. The group could debut after WrestleMania 35 since they have been in NXT for a long time, they could possibly win their first titles on their debut match on the main roster.

#6 Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper return

Normally, the night after WrestleMania features many huge returns of former and current WWE superstars. This year Wyatt and Harper can return as a tag team on SmackDown.

They can even reform The Wyatt Family with Daniel Bryan and Erick Rowan, this will help to re-establish the stable and give the fans some dream matches with other top groups.


#5 Triple H gives his farewell speech

Triple H will face Batista in a No Holds Barred match with his career on the line at WrestleMania 35. The match result could go in anyones favour.

But Batista has more chances of winning this match because only Triple H's career is on the line, WWE may want Triple H to retire from in-ring competition to focus on the company.

Vince McMahon will be giving more attention to XFL once it begins, so the entire control of WWE could go over to Triple H and his wife Stephanie McMahon.

So we can expect a farewell speech from The Game the following night on Raw, it will be really emotional since Triple H is one of the stars who made WWE what it is today.

#4 Sami Zayn returns and begins feud with Kevin Owens

The best scenario for Zayn is to resume his feud with Kevin Owens, this rivalry has been one of the greatest ever due to it's thrilling matches and incredible story telling.

Owens is currently working as a babyface, so Zayn should return as a heel, then we can have a different element in this exciting feud.

Rouesy is rumoured to take a hiatus following the show of shows, it is because she wants to give more importance to her family going forward.

So she will definitely not win the titles at the event, although that can change if she decided to stay. The perfect way to send her off is by letting her quit the company.

The storyline can be after suffering a loss in the main event of WrestleMania 35, Rousey quits WWE. This way WWE will have a storyline to bring her back in future.

Seth Rollins will be facing the Universal Champion Brock Lensar at WrestleMania 35. If rumours are to believed Rollins will walk out as the new Universal Champion.

Lesnar will most likely continue his part-time schedule and take a break from WWE for the time being. Meantime, WWE would need a new contender to face the new champion.

While there are many options on the table, but it should be Roman Reigns who challenges his Shield Brother by turning heel and attacking him the following night on Raw.

Fans have always wished to see The Big Dog turn heel, it's time WWE gives the fans what they want. This heel turn will freshen up Reigns character and build an exciting rivalry.
