The show is always presented as a visual extravaganza that brings first-hand entertainment to its audience. While there is no denying that the event will be historic, relying too much on nostalgia this time around could backfire. The fans will be expecting some technical masterpieces and if WWE doesn't back these nostalgia driven moments with a fine blend of wrestling, they are doomed to fail. Therefore, here are 5 matches that could legitimately save WrestleMania 34.
#5 Kevin Owens Vs Sami Zayn
A match that brings a fine blend of nostalgia and wrestling by clashing two superstars who have traveled all over the world in the hopes of being recognized.The duo has displayed tremendous bouts in the past and it won't be a surprise if they tear the house down in New Orleans this year again. WWE have started to tease the audience on a weekly basis by creating tension between the two and it seems likely that they will pull the final trigger at Fastlane.
The audience will be yearning to see this match at the Show of Shows and an added stipulation will be the icing on the cake. If you're looking out for a match that will not only be a modern day classic but will also engage the audience with its beautiful storytelling, then you must wait and watch out for Kevin Owens Vs Sami Zayn. The fans might not care about the conclusion of this match considering both the superstars are so popular with the audience that it becomes difficult to choose a side.
#4 Daniel Bryan Vs Anyone
Well, we have no confirmation regarding Daniel Bryan's in-ring future within the WWE but one thing's for sure that if they are secretly booking something shocking with him, then be prepared to hear perhaps the loudest ovation in the modern era. 'The Leader of the Yes Movement' has developed a fan base that transcends boundaries and it is likely that he will do everything in his power to force an in-ring return.
The fans want to see Bryan wrestle and even if you put him against someone like Hornswoggle or even with someone like Nakamura, the match will sell. Bryan has the ability to wrestle very technical matches and carry them with sheer ease and if the company decides to push the envelope and clear him, then it would be delightful. His ongoing feud with Shane O'Mac could see the light of the day at the Super Dome but, fans will love to see Bryan wrestling anyone.
#3 Brock Lesnar Vs Finn Balor Vs Roman Reigns
Let's not take anything away from Roman Reigns considering how great he was for the WWE in 2017. 'The Guy' continuously puts on great matches but he is still not able to connect with the audience and it's safe to say that the creative team is to be blamed here.
The fans wanted to see Daniel Bryan face the Beast in 2015 and fast forward to 2018, the fans want Finn Balor to face the Beast. Roman is booked in a very difficult situation and while the match will deliver, the fans will not be excited about it.
The perfect way to save the main event and the whole show is to involve all the three superstars in a blockbuster match at WrestleMania 34. The match could produce solid moments and the inclusion of Balor will definitely bring some excitement to the feud. The promos and the whole build-up will be fantastic. Imagine the possibility if this match is on the same lines as Brock Lesnar Vs Seth Rollins Vs John Cena at Royal Rumble 2015. The match could have been great nonetheless but, Seth's inclusion brought tons of excitement to the match and made it a show-stopper. The same could happen with this match.
#2 Seth Rollins Vs Kurt Angle
If you were not blown away by Seth's performance in the Gauntlet match on Raw, you better check your pulse again. 'The Architect' tore the house down with a performance too hard to put in words and, it's safe to say that WWE is looking to bring him back from misery to the main event picture. There are speculations that the company is planning Seth Rollins Vs Kurt Angle for WrestleMania 34 and if rumors are anything to go with, this match will be spine-chilling.
It is everything you expect from a WrestleMania match. The collision of these two powerhouse performers could be the most fulfilling Seth Rollins match in history, considering how similar their styles are. These two superstars can produce a technical masterpiece at 'the Grandest Stage of Them All'. Kurt Angle is not in a similar position as he was back in the day, but he could still run circles around 'the Architect'. At WrestleMania, dreams come true and it seems like 'Mr. Monday Night Rollins' will have his dream come true when he steps inside the ring with one of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time.
#1 A.J. Styles Vs Shinsuke Nakamura
You're crazy if you think that this match is doomed to fail at 'the Grandest Stage of them All' and it will be a damn shame if this does not close the show. Well, we all know that it won't be the headliner but, it has all the legitimate ingredients to save the whole card in New Orleans. Two legendary independent performers fighting it out at the Super Dome for the most coveted prize in sports entertainment.
Imagine the hype this match has got, ever since Nakamura's monumental victory and if WWE uses their business acumen correctly, then they must definitely give these two, all the creative freedom in the world to pull off a classic. Both veterans are the best wrestlers on the planet and, their confrontation alone can steal the show at WrestleMania 34. There's no better match than this on the card and even if you don't agree to this, you'll keep your eyes open when these collide at the 'Show of Shows'.
