12 Fears That Could Ruin WrestleMania 31

1. Seth Rollins Won't Cash In Money In The Bank

Roman Reigns is going to beat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania. He just is. Even if Lesnar re-signs with the company for another year, too much has been invested in the Roman Reigns experiment to not go all the way. Vince McMahon's grand idea of transferring the heat Lesnar got for beating The Undertaker to his brand-new hero has to be followed through to the end. With that in mind, there's only one way WrestleMania can end without 75,000 fans booing vociferously - Seth Rollins, "Mr. Money in the Bank," has to cash in his briefcase and defeat Reigns for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Reigns will still have beaten Lesnar, but after such a hard-fought battle, he'll have an excuse for losing the belt. The hardcore fans at the show, meanwhile, will be elated to see Rollins win the title. It all makes sense. All that said, there's still the chance WWE will want to protect Reigns, or they'll misjudge the crowd and think that a Rollins cash-in would ruin, rather than make, the moment. If WWE's higher-ups hold back, the result could be catastrophic. Reigns could be drowned in boos to cap off the most disappointing WrestleMania of all time.
