The WrestleMania PPV is the biggest night for any pro wrestler and is the grandest stage for a WWE Superstar to showcase his worth.

A WrestleMania moment is what every budding pro wrestler dreams to achieve and there's probably no other stage bigger than The Show of Shows.

For older Superstars, legends who have been in the industry for a long time and left a mark on the business, there can't be a better way to sign off than at WrestleMania.

Kurt Angle recently announced on WWE RAW that WrestleMania 35 would be his final match in the WWE, while Batista also said that his match against Triple H would be his last one in WWE.

Looking ahead to next year's WrestleMania, which will be held at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, let's take a look at 5 legends who could have their farewell match at WrestleMania 36:


#5 Brock Lesnar

Will we see Brock Lesnar bid goodbye to the WWE in 2020?
Will we see Brock Lesnar bid goodbye to the WWE in 2020?

It's an open secret that Brock Lesnar is in the WWE mainly for the big bucks that he gets for each appearance, and that he will also be returning to the UFC for a big-money fight.

Lesnar has made few appearances on RAW and on PPVs in the last few years, and that will not change anytime soon. By the time WrestleMania 36 comes along, The Beast will be a few months shy of his 43rd birthday, and years of hard-hitting action in the ring, in UFC and WWE, will have taken its toll on Lesnar's body.

There is a huge possibility that Lesnar will finally walk away from the WWE, and he could have one final match in the WWE at WrestleMania, which could possibly be against Roman Reigns, which will be a passing of the torch moment.

#4 R-Truth

It may come as a surprise to many that Ron Killings, or R-Truth as he is known in the WWE, is 47 years of age! 'Truth is in great physical condition for his age, despite being a constant fixture first in TNA in the 2000s, and later in the WWE.

R-Truth recently held the US Championship, albeit briefly, and I don't see him being a key player in any of the titles in the WWE, and perhaps his in-ring career is nearing its end.

We could maybe see Truth transition to a presenter or panelist role, or even be a manager for a young Superstar as he's pretty hilarious on the mic.

He has been teasing a feud with John Cena on SmackDown for a few weeks now, and there could be a possibility that he will have his final match in the WWE at WrestleMania, against Cena.

#3 John Cena

Talking about John Cena, the 16-time World Champion, who has been a part of several movies recently, has teased his retirement from wrestling over the last few months.

He teased retirement on social media when he tweeted this: "Nothing lasts forever. When doing something you love make sure to be present and enjoy it. That way if and when it ends, you can look back with fond memories instead of regret."

Cena, like The Rock, has transitioned into becoming a full-time actor and has achieved decent success. With Cena having achieved everything there is to be achieved in wrestling, could we maybe see him go one ahead of Ric Flair in the most World Championship titles race, perhaps at Royal Rumble, and then have a retirement match at WrestleMania 36.

Perhaps Cena could have a match with a younger star like Drew McIntyre or EC3, and put them over at WrestleMania.

#2 Matt Hardy

It's quite a surprise that Matt Hardy - and his brother, Jeff - are still wrestling in the WWE after years of taking bumps and high spots, while also being a victim to substance abuse and alcoholism.

The Hardy Boyz revolutionized tag team wrestling in the WWE, inspiring future Superstars, wowing audiences, and making tag team wrestling an important division in the WWE.

Matt teased his retirement when he split with Bray Wyatt, but has now returned to team with his brother once again, but this current run may very well be his last one in pro wrestling.

Maybe we could one last Hardy Boyz classic match at WrestleMania 36, against a team like The Revival, or Ricochet and Aleister Black (if the team still exists till next year), or even The Usos. Any one of those teams with the Hardy Boyz would tear the house down and give Matt Hardy a fitting finale if he does leave the WWE.

#1 The Undertaker

The Undertaker, at 53 years of age, is the oldest Superstar on this list, and probably the most likely one from this list of 5 to retire at WrestleMania 36.

Many predicted that 'Taker would retire at WrestleMania 35 (many felt that his match at WrestleMania 33, when he placed his hat and coat in the ring after the match, was his last one) but it seems like that may not happen.

With Angle and Batista set to bow out at WrestleMania 35, the WWE may not want Undertaker to usurp Angle and Batista's spot in the limelight by having his retirement match at WrestleMania 35 as well.

A Superstar of The Undertaker's calibre deserves a grand finale, and an old-school match against someone like Triple H would be a great way for The Deadman to finally bow out from the WWE.
