3. Three Theme Songs Will Accompany This Installment of WrestleMania

WWE has chosen three separate theme songs to commemorate the momentous occasion of WrestleMania’s 30th annual showcase. Kid Rock’s “Celebrate” (the show’s official theme) and Eminem’s “Legacy” (the plot buildup song for John Cena vs. Bray Wyatt) are those two musical tunes. Check out Kid Rock’s song in the video above and Eminem’s latest tune in the video below.

It also turns out that a 3rd theme song will become an official part of ‘Mania XXX. That newly announced tune is “In Time” by Mark Collie (the storyline buildup theme for The Undertaker vs. Brock Lesnar). You can listen to that song in the posted video seen below.

5. The Winner of Daniel Bryan vs. Triple H Will Enter The WWE World Heavyweight Championship Match That Features Randy Orton and Batista

Wrestlemania 30

Triple H and Daniel Bryan have been at odds since SummerSlam 2013, after HHH screwed Bryan out of holding the WWE Championship after Bryan defeated John Cena. Randy Orton cashed in his Money in the Bank title shot briefcase to claim the WWE Championship after HHH landed a Pedigree on Bryan. Ever since then, Bryan has butted heads with HHH and The Authority. Daniel Bryan’s “YES!” movement has propelled him to amazing heights of crowd appreciation and he’s been calling for HHH to finally face him in a match.

Wrestlemania 30

HHH agreed to take on Daniel Bryan, plus he added this surprising stipulation – the winner of the match will become the third man in the WWE World Heavyweight Championship bout that already includes Randy Orton and Batista. So it looks like it will either be Triple H vs. Randy Orton vs. Batista or Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton vs. Batista in the WrestleMania 30 main event.
