Backstage Update on Current WrestleMania 31 Plans Following Royal Rumble, Undertaker’s Status, Daniel Bryan “Left in the Cold?”

January 26, 2015

According to The Wrestling Observer, as of this weekend, the feeling within WWE is The Undertaker will be wrestling at WrestleMania 31. In the coming weeks, it’s expected ‘Taker’s ‘Mania status will be officially announced, but it’s likely WWE officials already know of his status.

Undertaker’s opponent is likely to be Bray Wyatt, which is one of the main reasons Wyatt had such a strong showing in the Royal Rumble match.

Mr. Money In The Bank Seth Rollins is expected to wrestle Randy Orton, which leaves Daniel Bryan “out in the cold.” Wrestling Observer Radio host Bryan Alvarez thinks WWE will be going to the Bryan vs. Sheamus match that was originally scheduled to last year, before those plans got hijacked by the WWE Universe.

Of course, with the unprecedented fan backlash coming out of the Royal Rumble, this card is subject to change. But as of Monday morning, the tentative WrestleMania card will feature:

Roman Reigns vs. Brock Lesnar
Sting vs. Triple H
John Cena vs. Rusev
Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton
Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan
