Some recently teased plans for Mania according to the dirtsheets:
Quote:
According to a recent edition of Wrestling Observer Radio, Kalisto will be defending the United States Title at WrestleMania 32, however he will not be facing former Champion Alberto Del Rio. There was speculation Kalisto and Del Rio would continue their feud into ‘Mania, but that is not currently the plan for the U.S. Champ.
While not confirmed and speculative at this point, it’s possible Ryback could be an opponent for Kalisto at the big PPV this year. As we just noted, Ryback is booked in U.S. Title Triple Threat matches against Kalisto and Del Rio at upcoming live events, and with The Big Guy teasing a possible heel turn as of late, it could be a match option.

Besides that match, Styles vs Jericho is also being teased as a Mania match from the same source that leaked Shane McMahon's return.
WWE themselves hinting the IC title match at Mania being a multi-man match the dirtsheets were teasing for a while.

After both Dolph Ziggler and The Miz have upped their game and traded swift victories in the past week, will we see The Showoff or the bearer of “The Moneymaker” challenge Owens at The Showcase of the Immortals? Might The Prizefighter’s recent adversary Big Show bring their rivalry to The Grandest Stage of Them All? Or will it be a more unorthodox foe, like Stardust? Perhaps WrestleMania’s Intercontinental Title picture will begin to materialize on Raw.
