What surprises could the McMahon family have in store for us at WrestleMania 35?

The WrestleMania 35 card has been confirmed, and WWE have announced that 15 matches will take place on April 7, 2019, at the MetLife Stadium.

Three matches will go on the pre-show, the Cruiserweight title match between Tony Nese and Buddy Murphy, and the men's and women's battle royal matches. WWE also announced that the RAW Women's title match between Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte Flair will close out the show, with the women headlining WrestleMania for the first time in history.

The card for the Show of Shows is set, and although it seems like an exciting one, there are a few changes that WWE can make to the card that will add more to each match and the event as a whole.

Let's take a look at 5 last-minute changes WWE should make to WrestleMania 35 card:


#5. RAW Tag Team title match added to WrestleMania 35

WWE have not confirmed the RAW tag team titles competing at WrestleMania 35, but we're quite sure that the match between The Revival and the team of Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins, will happen at the Show of Shows.

The match was teased following RAW, as Ryder and Hawkins challenged the current champs, and they replied by saying that they will take it "into consideration".

The RAW Tag Team title is the only one that will not be defended at WrestleMania 35, at this point, so it's most likely that the WWE will add this match to the card for this Sunday, and make it 16 matches at WrestleMania 35.

#4. Stipulations added to matches

The match between Shane McMahon and The Miz is a Falls Count Anywhere match, while Triple H and Batista will have a No Holds Barred match, where if The Game loses, he will have to retire from wrestling.

I think two other WrestleMania 35 matches need to have stipulations. The match between Randy Orton and AJ Styles has nothing at stake, which is why WWE should add a unique stipulation. Perhaps the winner of the match will become the No. 1 contender for the WWE Championship, or the loser of the match has to leave SmackDown Live (which would be a good way to bring them over to RAW)

There were some rumours doing the rounds that some personnel backstage were pushing for a ladder match at WrestleMania 35. If WWE do want to have a ladder match at the Show of Shows, there's one match that would be perfect, considering the Superstars in action - the SmackDown Tag Team title match.

The four teams involved in the match - The Usos, Aleister Black and Ricochet, The Bar, and Rusev and Nakamura, are phenomenal athletes who could make a ladder match a memorable one.

#3. Kevin Owens replaces Rey Mysterio to face Samoa Joe

Kevin Owens, who returned to the WWE after double knee surgery, has not had a strong storyline or feud yet, having only featured briefly against Daniel Bryan.

Owens does not have a match for WrestleMania 35, and that could maybe change if Rey Mysterio is not fit enough for the Show of Shows.

Mysterio, who wrestled Baron Corbin on RAW this past week, rolled his ankle and was not on WrestleMania go-home show of SmackDown Live.

WWE had this to say about Mysterio's injury:

Because of the injury, Mysterio was forced out of his previously scheduled match with Andrade on SmackDown LIVE. Mysterio will continue to be evaluated as WrestleMania draws closer.

Mysterio was to face Samoa Joe for the United States title at WrestleMania 35, but if he's not cleared by the WWE medical team, Owens would be a great replacement. Owens and Joe have fought previously on NXT, while Joe also debuted at NXT TakeOver: Unstoppable to stop Owens from giving Sami Zayn a beatdown.

#2. Xavier Woods and Big E added to the SmackDown Tag Team title match

Big E and Xavier Woods have played as big a part in Kofi Kingston's rise to the top and his opportunity at the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 35.

The final hoop that Kingston had to get through to get a shot at Daniel Bryan's title depended on Woods and Big E, as they were to face off against some of SmackDown's best tag teams in a Gauntlet match, which they did so heroically.

WWE's constant swerves in the Kingston storyline points towards a victory for him at WrestleMania 35 where he will finally hold aloft the WWE Championship.

What would make the victory even sweeter is if his New Day brothers, Big E and Xavier Woods, also had titles around their waist. This can be achieved if the two are added to the SmackDown Tag Team title match, which is a fatal four-way match.

They could perhaps replace one team in the match and take the titles away from their long-standing rivals, The Usos.

#1. New opponent for Kurt Angle

One WrestleMania 35 decision that has not got down well with almost every WWE fan is Kurt Angle's opponent - his final opponent in the WWE - at WrestleMania 35.

Angle will face off against Baron Corbin, an opponent who doesn't seem like the perfect one for a popular Superstar like Angle.

WWE fans are hoping that someone takes out Corbin and he's replaced by a mystery Superstar, who many would hope is John Cena.

Cena and Angle go way back, with Angle being Cena's first opponent on WWE television, while also inducting him into the WWE Hall of Fame.

Cena also does not have a match for WrestleMania 35, and his arrival at the MetLife Stadium will get a rousing reception from the fans!
