9 Dream Matches WrestleMania 31 Hinted At

9. The Miz vs. Damien 'Mizdow'

This one has been building for a while, and it simply must be imminent after what happened during the pre-show Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal before WrestleMania 31 went on the air. It's almost scary how into the Damien 'Mizdow' character fans have been over the past few months, the guy can seemingly do nothing that fails to entertain people. It's a credit to both The Miz and Damien Sandow that fans reacted as loudly as they did at 'Mania. When Damien refused to co-operate with Miz and gang up on The Big Show, the self-styled "movie star" got in the face of the guy he considers little more than an employee, and the stunt double reacted in kind, launching The Miz over the top rope and eliminating him from the match. It's simple storytelling, granted, but both wrestlers have been able to sustain interest in a split, which is - fittingly - awesome. The real challenge will come in trying to convince fans that a series of matches between the pair can be worthwhile, but for what it was worth, the fracture of the team made for a cool 'Mania moment, even if it was only on the pre-show.
