#3 Apollo Crews vs Big E - Steel Cage match (WWE Intercontinental Championship)

There has only been one Steel Cage match in WWE WrestleMania history

WWE has only ever seen one Steel Cage match take place at a WrestleMania event. It was at WrestleMania 2 when WWE Champion Hulk Hogan defeated King Kong Bundy in the main event to retain his title. Perhaps now is the time, 35 years later, to once again have a Steel Cage match at the PPV.

Big E and Apollo Crews' rivalry on SmackDown has been a long one. E first defeated Apollo Crews to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship on the January 8, 2021 episode of the blue brand. By the time that WrestleMania is upon us, the two rivals will have been feuding for over three months on WWE television.

Historically, when two WWE Superstars have been feuding for such a long period on television, there is a major match stipulation for the final chapter of the rivalry. In many cases, this has been a Steel Cage match.

Given the animosity between Big E and Apollo Crews that has developed in recent weeks, it makes sense for a brutal and violent match stipulation to be added to their Intercontinental Championship match at WrestleMania.

Furthermore, Crews' recent attacks on E have become increasingly vicious. Perhaps a Steel Cage match is a perfect way to settle the lengthy rivalry between the two SmackDown superstars once and for all at WWE WrestleMania 37.
