Triple H vs Dean Ambrose (Street Fight) (assuming Batista doesn't return)

The Authority keeps targeting Dean. At RR Triple H approaches him and Dean snaps and beats him up and tells him he is going to win the RR match. Triple H nearly cost Ambrose the match at RR. Triple H and Orton square off on Raw but Randy get's jumped by Triple H and Seth and Dean makes the save. Does two bicker back and forth after. We have Seth and Triple H vs Dean and Randy at EC. It ends with Dean beating up H to get the countout. Seth hits a distracted confused Orton with the briefcase. AT EC after Dean get's a double countout attacking H he get's "fired." He kidnaps Stephanie and in a alley he tells Trips if he wants her back he has to face him in a street fight a Mania and give him his job back. Triple H shows up and the two brawl with Dean beating up Triple H on a pile of trashbags. Stephanie hits Dean in the head with a sledgehammer and Triple H pedigree's him on the ground. Dean returns the next week driving straight through Triple H's office and kicking his ass. He even goes after Stephanie but is escorted out.

Randy Orton vs Seth Rollins

This will be booked with Brock pissed about Rollins actions quiting WWE with the belt. This causes Randy irritation and he challenges Brock to a match at Survivor Series for the belt. This will start a slow face turn. Randy fails and before the match we here Rollins telling Triple H he won't get the job done and there is a plan B. Randy ease drops listening in on them.

It ends with Dean beating up H to get the countout. Seth hits a distracted confused Orton with the briefcase.

John Cena (possibly a heel turn... Hint) vs Daniel Bryan: Cena blames Bryan for losing why he lost his matches with Brock and Orton, and why Wyatt got in his head because of Bryan's "fluke" victory. At RR Bryan quickly eliminates Cena. At EC Bryan pins Cena first. Cena teases a heel turn,but instead pushes a laughing Cesaro. The next night after a tag match Cena snaps and turns heel on Bryan to end Raw. Cena begins stating the blame and calls out Bryan for Mania.

The Rock vs Sting (or Bray Wyatt if Taker returns)
if Taker returns him vs Sting. Sting debuts the night after Royal Rumble. Just like (HHH/Taker) Rock returns immediately and say's this is his dream match and he challeges Sting to a match at WrestleMania. Sting constantly refusing saying he is only here to fight Undertaker. The Rock turns heel on Sting and Sting accepts. At Mania Sting stands tall and is interrupted by The Undertakers druids and chants. Undertaker copy's Stings and appears on the rapters and does the (RIP throat slash.) The WrestleMania 32 logo appears on the tron.

We can also have Rusev (C) vs Angle or Cesaro for the (Russian/US title)
UPDATED
 
I predict that if the Undertaker competes he should beat Lesnar as revenge. Then at WM32 - Undertaker's retirement match vs John Cena.
 
Everything looked fine. My only issue is why would hhh go to dean and Roman and ask them if they can beat lesnar if he's wanted them no where near the title. If anything hhh can challenge lesnar since he's beaten lesnar.

Because he loses hope in The Authority with Seth and Orton bickering and costing the other title matches. Kane quits The Authority and Triple H know's he can't beat Lesnar him self. He goes to Roman who is calm but still doesn't like Hunter. He goes to Dean who isn't letting his anger go and attacks Hunter.
 
Semi-realistic/Semi-dream WM31 card:

1) Brock Lesnar(c) vs. Roman Reigns [WWE World Heavyweight Championship]
2) John Cena vs. Daniel Bryan
3) Seth Rollins vs. Randy Orton
4) Bray Wyatt vs. Dean Ambrose [Anything Goes Match]
5) Bad News Barrett (c) vs. Cesaro vs. Sheamus [WWE Intercontinental Championship]
6) Paige (c) vs. Charlotte [WWE Divas Championship]
7) Gold and Stardust (c) vs. Nation of Domination 2.0 (Kofi Kingston and Big E) (w/Xavier Woods) vs. The Ascension [WWE Tag Team Championships]
8) Triple H vs. Batista [Loser Retires]
9) 30-Man Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

PRE-SHOW:
1) Hideo Itami vs. Finn Balor vs. Adrian Neville vs. Sami Zayn (c) [NXT Showcase Match]
2) Rusev (c) vs. Bo Dallas [WWE United States Championship]

Origin of feuds:
1) Roman Reigns last eliminates Daniel Bryan to win the Royal Rumble match, with Brock Lesnar successfully defending against Randy Orton at the Royal Rumble PPV and in the Elimination Chamber. Storyline here is obvious; the Conqueror faces the Roman Empire.
2) Daniel Bryan eliminates John Cena in the Royal Rumble match, with John Cena returning the favor in the Elimination Chamber match. This may or may not involve the Bellas in the feud (although I hope not, but it would be fine and makes the feud more personal, I guess).
3) Randy Orton RKOs Seth Rollins, who tried to cash in his MITB contract on Brock Lesnar (again) after the Elimination Chamber match, out of long-time frustrations for fighting Rollins's battles for him and being denied a one-on-one WWE World Heavyweight Championship match, turning anti-hero face in the process.
4) It's Bray Wyatt and Dean Ambrose after all. Lots of wild, crazy, creepy, mind games between them. Any storyline would be epic, in my opinion.
5) Bad News Barrett has regained the Intercontinental Championship from Dolph Ziggler by the Royal Rumble PPV. He would defend it successfully against Sheamus at the Elimination Chamber PPV (in underhanded fashion), while Cesaro puts on another impressive performance inside the Chamber. Cesaro will have an altercation with Bad News Barrett on RAW after the Elimination Chamber PPV, inserting himself into the feud. The feud centers around who is the best European athlete in the WWE.
6) Paige would have transformed into the Anti-Diva we all want her to be by the Road to WrestleMania. Charlotte would have debuted by this time. She goes on an impressive winning streak, leading to her confrontation with Paige.
7) The Cosmic Twins will run into a nation ready to rise and two vicious men just wanting to pounce on By-God anything that moves.
8) Being denied a one-on-one match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, Batista and Randy Orton would be allies against Seth Rollins and Triple H. Also, Triple H has never defeated Batista.
9) This is the new MITB at WrestleMania.
10) I think it would be nice to show the best of NXT at WM. I don't think Itami and Balor would debut until after WrestleMania.
11) After Bo Dallas keeps on berating every single Superstar that has fallen to Rusev, The Authority decides to place Bo Dallas in a match on RAW against Rusev. He would outsmart the Bulgarian-turned-Russian and beat him by DQ, causing Rusev to go after him. Bo Dallas turns face and becomes "America's New Sweetheart".

Results:
MAIN CARD:
1) Roman Reigns barely beats Brock Lesnar (after interference from The Rock to set-up WM32); Seth Rollins cashes-in MITB; Seth Rollins becomes new WWE World Heavyweight Champion
2) Daniel Bryan makes John Cena tap out; John Cena FINALLY turns heel after the match
3) Seth Rollins beats Randy Orton (Rollins with an illegal cheap shot before the Curb Stomp)
4) Dean Ambrose beats Bray Wyatt (double-turn)
5) Cesaro pins Sheamus (start of a true face run for Cesaro; Sheamus turns heel after a few more weeks)
6) Paige retains after miscue by Charlotte
7) Konnor (The Ascension) pins Goldust (Goldust turns heel on Stardust after the match)
8) Triple H Pedigrees Batista to retirement
9) Ryback eliminates Dolph Ziggler, then lastly Mark Henry (to avenge WM29 loss) (Mark Henry, at this time, is part of NOD 2.0)

PRE-SHOW:
1) Hideo Itami pins Adrian Neville (re-debuting the GTS move)
2) Bo Dallas ends Rusev's run without a pinfall loss
 
Randy Orton vs Seth Rollins

If that's the direction the company is heading, I'm enjoying the way they're getting there, especially in view of the rumor mill telling us about an impending Randy Orton face turn.

As angry as he's always seemed, even as a good guy, a slow face turn seems consistent with his personality; to emerge as a full-fledged face in one night seems wrong for him. But I thought he did a terrific job as a 'tweener in dealing with Daniel Bryan's "paranoid" act..... the sense of amused exasperation assumed by Randy at Daniel's antics showed he's able to display more than just rage.

Meanwhile, they're presently building up his displeasure with Seth Rollins as Randy vents about "fighting the fires" lit by Seth and stretching Randy's association with the Authority to the breaking point..........and that's the only possible negative factor about all this: it might not last all the way until WM31. Based on past performance, I doubt Randy will have the patience to put up with Seth getting in his way that long.

Still, if it happens, it could make a terrific match....and I really like the possibility of Randy Orton taking part as the good guy.

I also do hope this is the direction they are heading in.

However, I do see the point of it happening too quickly and probably petering out before Mania.

However, I think that can be handled somewhat, as long as Randy can get his long-awaited rematch for the title, as the Authority seeks to appease him and keep him on their side.
Have Lesnar vs Orton at TLC for instance, and then build towards a slow face turn for Orton due to something Rollins did(after all, Seth just admitted his attempted cash-in was his own idea)...and take it from there on the Road to Wrestlemania 31.
 
This will be a great Wrestlemania. So many big names should be here.

Main Event WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match: Brock Lesnar VS. C.M. Punk
CM Punk wins after doing two GTS's on Brock Lesnar.

Evolution Fatal Four Way: Batista VS. Randy Orton VS. Ric Flair VS. Triple H

Randy Orton wins by punting Batista, causing him to retire, also causing him to feud with Triple H until he is ready to take the title from CM Punk.

Submission Match: Daniel Bryan VS. Kurt Angle
Daniel Bryan makes Kurt Angle tap out to the yes lock, and has a series of matches with Angle, with Daniel Bryan winning the war.

Sting VS. The Undertaker
The Undertaker gets a win against Sting, and next year he defeats John Cena as well.

John Cena (W/ Hulk Hogan) VS. Roman Reigns (W/ Dean Ambrose)
John Cena wins due to Ambrose turning on Reigns.

Andre The Giant Battle Royal
Bray Wyatt wins by eliminating Luke Harper and Eric Rowan, and gets a babyface push throughout 2015, eventually winning next years Royal Rumble.

Pre-Show IC Title Match: Dolph Ziggler VS. Wade Barrett
Wade Barrett defeats Dolph Ziggler for the IC Championship with Dolph Ziggler doing a high flying move from the top rope and runs into a bullhammer.
 
I predict that if the Undertaker competes he should beat Lesnar as revenge. Then at WM32 - Undertaker's retirement match vs John Cena.

What do Undertaker, Brock Lesnar and WWE achieve from this scenario? Absolutely zero and here is why.

Undertaker - his streak has gone. He is VERY close to retirement. He benefits in no way shape or form from beating the best on the roster.

Brock Lesnar - he ended the streak. Loses 12 months later to the same guy. Who is retiring soon. All for nothing.

WWE - a guy who turns up once a year beats their main attraction who they have built up as unstoppable for nearly 18 months.

IWC logic 101. :banghead:
 
Brock Lesnar (c) vs Dean Ambrose
I would love to see Ambrose go all lunatic on Brock and end his streak as champion. This would make him.

John Cena vs Roman Reigns
Turn Reigns heel. Have him take the mantle left by Brock.

Undertaker vs Sting
I dont care how old is and I dont care that they are both past their prime. This match is the cloest to happening since WM27 so lets get it over with.

Triple H vs Randy Orton vs Batista
Have Flair as the special guest Ref. All 4 Evolution members in the ring. The story writes itself.

Daniel Bryan vs Seth Rollins
These two could have a great match up.
