How would you book the biggest wrestling show in history?

There is absolutely no chance of Lesnar having an open challenge at Mania, that would be a complete waste of their most marketable asset.

I would have Lesnar going in as a dominant champ again if someone else was ready to make the step up. It was obvious they were trying it with Reigns until they were forced to change course.

Bryan would be ideal but it has to be a surefire thing this time around which makes it difficult.

I would say a face Rollins but I think that him and HHH is a lock for Mania given the build.

I would go for something like this...

WWE World Heavyweight Championship
The Rock vs Brock Lesnar (c)

Seth Rollins vs HHH

John Cena vs Roman Reigns

Intercontinental Title
Cesaro vs Kevin Owens (c)

US Title
Rusev (c) vs Daniel Bryan

The Undertaker vs Dolph Ziggler

Dean Ambrose vs Chris Jericho

Randy Orton vs Bray Wyatt

Divas Title
Charlotte (c) vs Sasha Banks

TLC match
New Day vs The Dudleyz vs Samoa Joe/Usos

Pre-Show

Andre the Giant Battle Royal
Sheamus winning

Tag Titles
The Miz/Tyler Breeze vs New Age Outlaws

Obviously some of this is just fantasy and some of it wouldn't work but it is what I would like to see.

A fun tag match on the pre-show that gets fans into the event. Maybe some comedy thrown in. Would like to see Miz and Breeze together, think it is a natural fit and there could be a stable of sorts with lackeys getting involved. They should retain here.

Sheamus winning the battle royal keeps the case in view and keeps him strong for what may happen after Mania.

Instead of having tag team turmoil, I would like to see something different, so Dudleyz bringing in Spike and Samoa Joe being recruited by the returning Usos can give a match to all 3 members of New Day. Could be very memorable and help them sell numerous DVDs with recaps of past TLC stuff with Dudleyz involved .

Sascha Banks is a star. Should build up Charlotte as an unstoppable wrestler with her father's backing before then and have Banks topple her at Mania.

Wyatt and Orton has seeds planted seemingly and Wyatt needs a big Mania win over an established star.

Ziggler has a bit of HBK about him and a match with the Undertaker gives him some spotlight and a different challenge to Taker. I would have Ziggler take him to the absolute limit and look like a warrior, but Taker will get the win in his own state.

If Bryan is fit, I would build Rusev up (doesn't looke likely now), with Lana back at his side and have him go after the US title. Have him hold the title captive, in need of a hero to salvage it and Bryan returns to challenge him at Mania (perhaps against medical advice). Could be a fantastic story and great Mania moment.

Ambrose and Jericho has seeds planted from recently and makes sense.

Cesaro and Owens also has seeds planted and makes sense, and gives both a chance to shine, maybe after so much failure, this could be Cesaros chance to win.

Cena/Reigns could have a great narrative of Cena telling him what is needed to be the best and Reigns jealously lashing out and attacking Cena. A Reigns turn and win against Cena at Mania could be a big moment for him.

HHH/Rollins is the longest built story they have, and a face Rollins could use a win against the Game as a springboard to great heights. He is fantastic and don't think he gets the credit he deserves.

Lesnar/Rock is the biggest money match they could have IMO and give them something to hang the PPV on so to speak. Make it for the title and while others might see it as a waste, I think it would increase media interest and intrigue going into the event.
