At WrestleMania 31, Daniel Bryan, Wade Barrett, Dean Ambrose, Stardust, R-Truth, Dolph Ziggler and Luke Harper set the bar pretty high in the opening match. That particular bout was a Ladder Match contested for the WWE Intercontinental Title. It seems WWE officials enjoyed what they witnessed, because they've booked a similar affair at this year's WrestleMania.

Kevin Owens will defend the belt against Sami Zayn, Dolph Ziggler, Stardust, Zack Ryder, The Miz and Sin Cara. There had been hopes that Zayn vs. Owens would transpire, but by scheduling another multi-man Ladder Match, WWE are pretty much guaranteeing the same kind of carnage. Last year, Ambrose was Powerbombed from the ring through a prone ladder at ringside, just as one example.

That's the kind of fare fans will be expecting come 'Mania 32, there can be no other way. If the forthcoming Ladder battle doesn't include crazy spots and bell-to-bell action, it will feel like a broken promise from WWE. Much like the 'Money In The Bank' bouts once promised so much at WrestleMania, the Intercontinental Title Ladder Match now takes on that mantle.
