WrestleMania XXX is just over two weeks away, but the WWE is still changing and finalizing its plans for the biggest show of the year emanating live form the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans on April 6 as many of the pieces are still being moved around. Recent reports have the event being an eight-match show with a four-hour duration, and here is a look into the projected card.
Reports of Daniel Bryan winning WWE title at WrestleMania and Brie Bella winning Divas title
The WWE is building the show off of four big matches, including Batista vs. Randy Orton vs. either Daniel Bryan or Triple H for the WWE Championship, Bryan vs. Triple H in a singles match with the winner moving on to the main event, The Undertaker defending his undefeated 21-0 WrestleMania streak against Brock Lesnar and John Cena taking on Bray Wyatt.
The WWE has also announced a fifth match being the 30-man Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal for the show, but the participants for that particular match remain up in the air. It also leaves an opening for three more matches.

With Bray Wyatt taking on Cena, it was believed that Erick Rowan and Luke Harper, members of The Wyatt Family stable, would battle The Shield at WrestleMania XXX in an extension of their current feud, however that doesn't seem to be the case. According to Wrestlingheadlines.com, the WWE may reportedly limit Rowan and Harper to a run-in during Wyatt's match with Cena or stick them into the 30-man battle royal. The Shield will likely be inserted into a six-man tag team match pitting the trio of Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns and Dean Ambrose against Kane and The New Age Outlaws. The Shield is due to split up after the big show despite their recent face turn, and the Outlaws reportedly wanted to work with the trio before the break up, leading to the WWE tweaking the card. After the SmackDown tapings, it looks as though The Usos will defend their WWE Tag Team Championships against Ryback & Curtis Axel and The Real Americans. It appeared as though Cesaro would be in the battle royal due to a promo he did for German television, but that is not the case now. Ryback and Axel had already been announced for the battle royal, but since they are booked for the tag match it remains to be seen if they're pulled from the battle royal or if they'll pull double duty. Assuming they're left out, here is the current field for the battle royal, with 12 spots open: Big E, Big Show, The Miz, Sheamus, Titus O'Neil, Alberto Del Rio, Rey Mysterio, Kofi Kingston, Fandango, Mark Henry, Damien Sandow, Cody Rhodes, Goldust, Dolph Ziggler, Christian, Heath Slater, Jinder Mahal and Drew McIntyre. The eighth match would likely be a Divas match, but nothing is reported on that as of now. With these new plans reportedly on the schedule, here's a look at the likely lineup for WrestleMania XXX on April 6 live at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans: WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Singles match: Singles match The Streak vs. The Beast: Singles match: Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal: Six-man tag team match: WWE Tag Team Championships: WWE Divas match (Speculated, unconfirmed details) For more WWE content, follow us on Twitter @SportsWN or LIKE us on Facebook
