10 WrestleMania matches that almost happened

​

Always the grandest stage of them all

WWE WrestleMania is always the biggest sports entertainment event of the year, the Super Bowl of professional wrestling.

So because it is, WWE likes to give fans the biggest matches they can have every year the spectacle. WrestleMania has brought us the first time meeting dream matches of The Rock vs Hulk Hogan, Shawn Michaels vs Kurt Angle, Ric Flair vs Randy Savage, Hulk Hogan vs The Ultimate Warrior and countless others. So, if these matches actually happened, what about some big matches that almost did?

They just barely got away from us but here are 10 matches that almost happened at WrestleMania.

#10 Triple H vs CM Punk - WrestleMania 30

Triple H is still 1-0 over CM Punk

Despite CM Punk being one of WWE's biggest stars from 2011 until his departure, he never saw eye to eye with WWE bigwig Triple H.

In Punk's words, Triple H always saw him as an ''internet darling'' who couldn't hang with him. Punk was allowed to shoot a little with his promos in 2011 and told Triple H how he really felt about him live on the air which made the Game despise him even more, especially when Punk got the better of him during said promos. That's why it was no surprise that Triple H easily pinned Punk in a NO DQ match between the two at WWE Night of Champions that year.

So when Triple H vs CM Punk was planned for WrestleMania 30, everyone wondered would Triple H really put over someone he despised on the grandest stage of them all?... That is something we will never know as Punk walked out of WWE on the post-Royal Rumble RAW and has vowed to never return.
