WrestleMania 35: 2 superstars who deserve to have a match and 2 who don't

WrestleMania 35 is set to be the longest ever PPV in the history of WWE. There are reportedly 17 matches come April 7 at the MetLife Stadium, New Jersey.

The RAW women's triple threat match involving Ronda Rousey, Becky Lynch, and Charlotte Flair has been officially confirmed to be the main event of the pay-per-view. The card also includes mouth-watering clashes in Seth Rollins vs Brock Lesnar for the Universal Championship, Triple H vs Batista, and much more.

Though WWE tries to cram as many superstars as they possibly can, a look at the card shows that some deserving superstars will eventually miss the card while some others who do not necessarily deserve the spot will be on the card.

It is to be reiterated that the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal is not counted as a main card match and is most likely going to take place in the pre-show.

Here are 2 superstars who deserve to have a match and 2 who don't deserve to be on the WrestleMania 35 card.

---

#1 DO: Kevin Owens

Kevin Owens returned to WWE programming after a long injury lay-off as the replacement for Kofi Kingston at Fastlane. This was Owens' first run as a face in the company, so it was highly anticipated.

But not due to anyone's fault, Kofimania happened and that completely derailed Kevin Owens' return to WWE. Fans only wanted Kofi to face Daniel Bryan for the WWE Championship and it was made pretty obvious. Owens was originally supposed to be Bryan's opponent for the championship.

After the triple threat match for the WWE Championship which also involved Ali, Owens has looked lost in the shuffle. The creative clearly has no other direction for him at this point in time, evident by the fact that he is hosting talk shows involving Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair.

Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal seems to be the only option for the Prizefighter to be on WrestleMania at all, unless a certain Sami Zayn returns and WWE plans a haphazard feud involving both of them.

#1 DON'T: Shane McMahon

The perks of being the son of the chairman.

Shane McMahon is now 49 years old, and he was not good inside the ring when he was younger either.

Shane returned back to WWE in 2016 and has found a place in all WrestleManias since. At WrestleMania 32, Shane faced The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell match. At WrestleMania 33, he faced 'The Phenomenal One' AJ Styles. At WrestleMania 34, Shane was in a tag team match with Daniel Bryan against Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn.

Shane clearly does not deserve to be in the main card of WrestleMania because he is simply not good enough. One look at the WrestleMania matches since his return in 2016 - one was a gimmick match, one was against the best performer in the business, and another was a tag team.

WWE clearly tries to hide Shane's inability inside the ring through smoke and mirrors or by putting him against a superior worker. At WrestleMania 35, he will be facing The Miz, who is a decent worker, but no AJ Styles.

#2 DO: Braun Strowman

There was a time when Braun Strowman was the next big monster heel that ran through anyone that came across him. Braun has an imposing body, everything Vince looks for in a superstar.

He has charisma and fans embrace the Monster Among Men. All these factors usually lead to a superstar being given a big push and eventually ending up winning a title. Not in Braun's case.

Strowman has had some insane moments in WWE - flipping over ambulances, destroying cars, etc. But there is so much more that can be done with Braun. After Roman Reigns' leukemia announcement, the monster faced Brock Lesnar at WWE Crown Jewel.

With uncertainty over Lesnar's WWE future, it was widely believed that Strowman would finally become the face of the company. Sadly the exact opposite happened. Strowman was effectively squashed by Lesnar and he has never fully recovered from that.

The feuds Braun has been involved in since have been underwhelming. The monster's feuds leading up to WrestleMania 35 have been abysmal. The comedy feud with the SNL guys - Colin Jost and Michael Che has not been funny and Braun deserves better than to be in the pre-show match in a segment with Colin and Michael.

#2 DON'T: Baron Corbin

Baron Corbin is set to face Kurt Angle at WrestleMania 35 in what is going to be the latter's retirement match. The backlash WWE has received due to the match has been unprecedented.

The rivalry between the two started when Corbin was appointed as the "constable" during Angle's run as the RAW general manager. Both of them had their fair share of disputes throughout, so storyline wise the match makes sense. But not on the stage and the occasion where the match is scheduled to take place.

Kurt Angle has been one of the legends of the business who has sacrificed his body for the entertainment of the fans. The former Olympic gold medallist deserves better than Corbin in his retirement match. Also, Baron Corbin is not the most exciting wrestler on the roster and coupled with the current Kurt Angle, the match is a sure shot disaster waiting to happen.

Kurt has faced Chad Gable, Apollo Crews, and Samoa Joe after the retirement announcement, and is scheduled to face AJ Styles on SmackDown Live. All of these superstars are way superior to Corbin, so having him as Angle's final opponent does not make much sense.

Hopefully, a certain John Cena returns and faces Kurt Angle to give the veteran the send-off he deserves.
