WWE Title Match
Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton

[powerfulmgp]

If Dave's lineup holds, Lesnar v. Goldberg for the Universal Championship is the only match I have any interest in. Still can't believe they dropped the ball on Cena v. Taker.

[Rich Kraetsch]

Yeah, if the lineup is what Dave reported weeks ago it will be the least interesting WrestleMania since WM 2000/16.

I just can't wrap my mind around not having better than Shane for Styles. Look, I get that they consider it a big spot to be in there with him, but after the year he had, between the Reigns feud, the Cena feud and carrying Smackdown for the first six months of the brand split, he deserves FAR better.

And I have a very easy way to make it happen. Why not have a brand vs. brand match and put him in against Joe?

[supersonic]

No. Balor vs. Styles. Joe can dethrone Zayn for the US title, making it another brief reign for our favorite underdog ginger in the company.

I'd happily take both of these matches, though the Joe/Zayn matches in NXT were not the greatest. Maybe away from the main event, it will be better.

[supersonic]

I don't want Zayn vs. Joe at all, but it may be necessary. Joe decimating Zayn advances their gimmicks too.

[Hagan]

What also became readily apparent tonight is that a lot of people are going to be up in arms about Goldberg and Brock probably being for the Universal title and going on last at 'mania and I'm sure Roman and UT will be pushed higher in the promotional material but over the next seven weeks KO and Jericho are gonna just be all over TV doing this feud. They already get more screentime on Raw than any other act between matches and promos. A lot of people are going to be taking umbrage at the part-timers jumping into main event slots but this feud is probably going to be carrying Raw for the rest of the summer, regardless of whatever machinations are going on with the belt.

It's my same thinking with AJ. Despite whatever is going on with Orton and the belt, AJ is still gonna be all over the show, especially in an authority feud with Shane. Honestly, a match with Shane is going to be pushed harder than the title match, especially once Bray promos us to death over the next seven weeks.

I think worrying about match order and who has what belt at 'mania is overthinking what their goal is and what the status of how people are pushed are.

[FilipPejic]

With this battle royal happening is there a possibility that Luke Harper wins and the WWE Champiosnhip match is a triple threat between haper, Wyatt and Orton

[supersonic]

Absolutely plausible.

[Ckkj14]

Would be great. Harpers big moment

[ScorpioCorp]

It is unbelievable that they are doing Lesnar vs Goldberg at this year's Mania & that it might be a main event title match. Their 2004 match was considered one of the worst WrestleMania matches. I wonder if the crowd will get nostalgic & start jeering.

I think applying the 2004 scenario to today ignores a tremendous amount of difference between then and now.

1) Both men are on good terms with the company
2) Both are over with the crowd
3) Match is actually wanted by the fans
4) Company is pushed both men properly

That is true. I just find the concept of doing a WrestleMania rematch of one of the worst WrestleMania matches weird, no matter what the current circumstances are. I think it is bad karma.
