#6 The Shield vs. Baron Corbin, Drew McIntyre, and Bobby Lashley

As far as pure action goes, this should be fine, but it certainly isn't exciting. Corbin, McIntyre, and Lashley continue to team up for some reason as directionless heels. The latest of many Shield reunions happened just as suddenly, Dean Ambrose's recent feud with Seth Rollins be ignored.

Filler is as filler does.

This does nothing for Seth Rollins, who we must again remember, won the Royal Rumble. He hardly feels hot enough to defeat Brock Lesnar at WrestleMania, which raises some big red flags.


#5 The Revival vs. Aleister Black and Ricochet vs. Chad Gable and Bobby Roode

The presence of Aleister Black and Ricochet will pick this match up, but it certainly hasn't been built very well. Chad Gable and Bobby Roode are there for some reason. The Revival feel like the most undeserving champions in recent history.

As far as pure work rate goes, this match will be fine, especially with Black and Ricochet, but we can only hope that the titles change hands, given how badly The Revival have been booked. Roode and Gable stand as the default best options to win because Black and Ricochet are too good for this division.
