WrestleMania 35 will take place on April 7, 2019, at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. It has already been confirmed that Brock Lesnar will defend the Universal Championship against the Men's Royal Rumble winner Seth Rollins and that Ronda Rousey will defend the Raw Women's Championship against Charlotte Flair.

It is also confirmed that Buddy Murphy will defend the Cruiserweight Championship against either Tony Nese, Drew Gulak, Humberto Carillo or Oney Lorcan, or Cedric Alexander or Akira Tozawa.
There is still one more pay per view left until WrestleMania 35 and that is Fastlane and after that, there is about one month left until WWE's biggest show of the year.
However, before we get to WrestleMania 35, there are many things that WWE needs to do.
#3 Establish clear challengers for the other championships
While WWE has determined clear challengers for the Raw Women's, Cruiserweight, Universal, and to a lesser extent the WWE Championship, they have not yet set up any challengers for the SmackDown Women's, Women's Tag Team, United States, Intercontinental, SmackDown Tag Team, and Raw Tag Team Titles.
All of those championships should and will obviously be defended at the pay per view so WWE should start to establish clear challengers for these championships.
Asuka and R-Truth, in particular, have been marginalized as both have only recently started appearing on NXT again.
It may be best for R-Truth to lose the United States Championship to Andrade so that El Idolo can defend the United States Championship against either Rey Mysterio in a singles match or a number of competitors in a ladder match.
Asuka has a number of options to defend her championship against but the best option would be against Naomi, Nikki Cross, Sonya Deville, or Lacey Evans. Finn Balor should arguably defend the Intercontinental Championship against a breakout star like Drew McIntyre or one of the NXT call ups in Aleister Black or Ricochet.
The Boss N' Hug Connection has a number of potential challengers but the best ones would be the IIconics, Fire and Desire, or an NXT team like the Sky Pirates.
WWE must also be sure to put a spotlight on the tag team division which needs it. The Revival should arguably defend the Raw Tag Team Titles against a team like Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder or #DIY.
Meanwhile, the Usos should face off with The Hardy Boyz in a dream matchup. All of these championship matchups deserver a spotlight and must be given a lot of attention by WWE, heading into WrestleMania.
