WWE WrestleMania 35: 5 people who could interrupt Elias
As well as the 15 matches that have been announced for WrestleMania 35, WWE has confirmed that there will be a special musical performance from Elias.
WWE’s resident guitarist has only competed in one match on Monday Night Raw over the last month, defeating No Way Jose in quick fashion on March 18, and he has spent the last two weeks drifting around New York/New Jersey ahead of his big performance at MetLife Stadium on April 7.
Speaking to Busted Open Radio this week, Elias said: "It's to going sound kind of crazy, but Elias is such a character in a day and age where I feel like we've got a lot of wrestlers, and that's not a good... you know, I'm not saying one thing is better than the other, but for me, I think a big character like a John Cena... like a feud with John Cena would be fantastic. A feud with The Undertaker would be classic."
As ever with Elias, fans are expecting his WrestleMania song to be interrupted by another Superstar, just like how he has been interrupted by a whole host of Raw Superstars during his two years on the brand.
With that in mind, let’s take a look at five people who could potentially spoil the biggest performance of his life on Sunday.
#5 The Undertaker
With the exception of his brief promo on Raw 25 in January 2018, The Undertaker did not appear on WWE programming in the build-up to WrestleMania 34. Instead, John Cena called him out every week leading up to the show, culminating in a short match between the two at ‘Mania.
This year, there has been no mention of “The Deadman” on Raw or SmackDown Live before WrestleMania 35, which has led many people to speculate whether this could be the first year since 2000 that the WWE icon does not compete at WrestleMania.
If he does take part in a match, the smart money would be on him interrupting Elias, presumably after some derogatory comments during a song, before defeating him in a squash match.
