10 Biggest Mysteries Still Surrounding WrestleMania 35

1. Will Seth Rollins Go Over?

Roman Reigns' grim Universal Title coronation at WrestleMania 34 was treated as a certainty heading into the event. Few fans were happy about it, but it had been reported almost a full year in advance, and when WWE's booking patterns started falling in-line with the stories, it was considered a dead cert. 'The Big Dog' was definitely going over.

And then he didn't.

Brock Lesnar bludgeoned his challenger in the night's main event, slicing his head open with shoot MMA elbows to near-silence from the disengaged crowd. A shocking conclusion, and all because Vince McMahon got cold feet, opting instead to prolong Lesnar's run and hold off on the title change until SummerSlam four months later.

There's every chance he'll do the same on 7 April. 'The Kingslayer's' victory would be celebrated, and he'd be a popular Universal Champion, but he's not exactly a Vince McMahon guy. 'The Beast,' on the other hand, most certainly is, so whose to say McMahon won't glance over to Seth and Brock in guerrilla, put a hand on Rollins' shoulder, and whisper "not tonight, pal"?

It's enough to give huge swathes of the fanbase nightmares, but it'd be a very Vince McMahon thing to do.
