WWE reportedly has plans for six different women's matches on the WrestleMania 36 card, according to The Observer.

Charlotte Flair vs. WWE NXT Women's Champion Rhea Ripley is the only official match for The Grandest Stage of Them All as of this writing. Shayna Baszler vs. RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch is rumored, as is Naomi vs. SmackDown Women's Champion Bayley. The other matches will be the 3rd annual WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal, a tag team match with WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Asuka and Kairi Sane, and one other to be named.

There are also plans for the 7th annual Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal to take place this year.

There's no word yet on what RAW Tag Team Champions Seth Rollins and Murphy will be doing at WrestleMania, but Rollins is likely headed for a blow-off to the feud with Kevin Owens, either in a singles or a tag team match. There's also no word on what top SmackDown Superstars like Sheamus and Daniel Bryan will be doing. We should have a better idea of the SmackDown Tag Team Titles match after WWE Super ShowDown when The New Day defends against John Morrison and The Miz as a title change has been rumored.
