7. WrestleMania XXXI Whats Going To Happen?
A great many WWE fans only buy one Pay Per View a year, WrestleMania. The event, then, is a great way to pick up new/lapsed fans by showcasing the WWE product at its very best. WWE seems to be building towards a Cena/Lesnar main event at WrestleMania XXXI, which will likely be both predictable and bland to watch. Lesnar will be picking up a paycheque and Cena will be doing what weve seen him do hundreds of times before, winning the match with his patented five moves of doom and leaving the building as The Champ. Again. As main events go though, thats probably the best way to play it. Besides, its probably too late to do anything else now, anyway. What WWE should be doing, however, is augmenting the rest of the card with some real surprises. Lets see some NXT talent being called up to the main roster and getting to debut in front of WWEs biggest crowd of the year. Yeah, Lesnar vs. Cena might not be your cup of tea, but show me someone who wouldnt pay good money to watch Kevin Owens, Adrian Neville, Sami Zayn and others mix it up with WWEs main roster on the biggest stage of them all. A surprise win here could really make a new star very quickly, in addition to building a solid fanbase from the ground up. WrestleMania XXXI is the perfect opportunity to showcase the WWEs fresh talent reservoir, so that audiences in 2015 are pumped and primed to watch a newer, more exciting WWE product. So, what else can they do to invigorate their cards? On to the next question...
