Seth Rollins vs Ric Flair
This is a matchup that many would love to see in real life, as both superstars are expert technicians. As a sweet bonus, two of NXT’s brightest stars Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole will be providing commentary for the match, making this one fans won’t want to miss.
“Can The Monday Night Messiah prove that he is the savior of WWE against 16-time World Champion “Nature Boy” Ric Flair? Longtime rivals Johnny Gargano and NXT Champion Adam Cole will be lending their expertise as they watch this legendary match unfold.”
Sasha Banks vs Trish Stratus
Trish Stratus is one of the biggest WWE superstars ever, and while she’s faced Charlotte in the past, we’ve never seen her face The Boss Sasha Banks. Now we’ll get that chance, and it’s only fitting that Banks will be providing commentary for the dream match, though she won’t be alone, as SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley will also be on the mic for the big event.
“Will it be Boss Time during WWE Dream Match Mania, or will the WWE Universe feel the Stratusfaction? Sasha Banks herself will be on the mic for this battle, along with SmackDown Women’s Champion Bayley.”
John Cena vs Hulk Hogan
It doesn’t get much more iconic than Hulk Hogan, and you could say the same for John Cena. That’s why a matchup between these two is something fans have always wanted to see, and the match will be getting some amazing commentary as well, as R-Truth and Drake Maverick will be on the mic for it.
“This battle pits two of WWE’s all-time greats against each other, as 16-time World Champion John Cena steps in the ring with “The Immortal” Hulk Hogan. R-Truth and Drake Maverick will join the WWE Universe to watch the action go down in this one.”
Big E vs Goldberg
While Goldberg has been active in the WWE again recently, we haven’t had the chance to see him up against the charismatic big man of the New Day Big E, and now we’ll have that chance. Big E will also be providing commentary on the match with his New Day partner Kofi Kingston, so this should be one entertaining match all around.
“Big E’s dreams come true on Dream Match Mania when he takes on Goldberg. What will happen when these two big men “bump meat” in the ring? Find out alongside Big E and Kofi Kingston as they get behind the microphone for this massive showdown.”
Charlotte Flair vs Beth Phoenix
Charlotte has gone up against her share of legends, but for this match, she is facing a powerhouse in Beth Phoenix, and making the event even better is the fact that both superstars will be on hand to provide commentary for it, so you’ll be getting a truly complete experience.
“It will be a true test of power when two of WWE’s most revolutionary female Superstars square off, as The Queen battles The Glamazon. Both Flair and Phoenix will watch this one play out with the WWE Universe and call it like they see it.”
Roman Reigns vs The Rock
Fans have seen Roman Reigns and The Rock in the ring at the same time, but the two big-time superstars have never actually faced each other in a match, and now fans will get their chance to see that play out in Dream Match Mania. Even better is the fact that The Usos will be providing commentary for the match, making this an event you won’t want to miss.
“Who will stand tall in this family affair, when The Big Dog goes one-on-one with The Great One? Commentary for this showdown will be provided by Jimmy & Jey Uso.”
