10 Reasons WrestleMania 32 Will Exceed 31

Hell In A Cell returns to WrestleMania...

Despite some reservations heading into the pay-per-view, WrestleMania 31 actually turned out be a very enjoyable event.

There were grumbles after the show had finished, mainly with the fact that Triple H managed to defeat Sting, along with John Cena's WWE United States Title victory over the emerging Rusev.

This year, the big marquee matches are pretty damn varied. 

First and foremost, Roman Reigns goes into his second consecutive WrestleMania main event, this time against Triple H. After losing out on the WWE World Heavyweight Title last year, it looks like 32 may just be Roman's lucky number this time around.

In other bumper collisions, Shane McMahon will face The Undertaker in a Hell In A Cell encounter. The fate of Monday Night Raw hangs in the balance, which may just lead to the return of a long-discarded system that's perhaps ready for a return. 

Dean Ambrose vs. Brock Lesnar in a Street Fight completes the set of blockbuster matches. That's one to keep an eye on, because both men should be motivated to produce something special. We all know they're capable of it. 

This article takes all of these points in, aiming to show why WrestleMania 32 may just be superior to it's predecessor. What does 'Mania 32 have going for it that 'Mania 31 didn't? Here's what...

10. Genuinely Fresh Faces In The Intercontinental Title Picture

Last year's Ladder Match for the WWE Intercontinental Title was tremendous. A full year on from winning the WWE World Heavyweight Title at 'Mania XXX, Daniel Bryan captured the secondary strap in what was an immensely popular victory.

There's no doubting the match was excellent, but it wasn't exactly revolutionary.

At 'Mania 31, the same old faces were in the Intercontinental Title picture. Going nowhere guys like Wade Barrett, Dolph Ziggler and Stardust (as Cody Rhodes) had all been champion before. This didn't really take away from the action at the time, but it's so satisfying to think that WrestleMania 32 will present some fresh faces in the IC Title shuffle.

Kevin Owens has been linked with the belt for quite some time, but he has never competed at WrestleMania. Neither has Sami Zayn, and it looks like he is going to be the one to take on the dastardly KO on the big stage.  

Things certainly seem to be going that way, and it's nice to see fresh faces in the mix.
