The story of 'two guys want to wrestle to have a good match' just sounds....weird. Hey wrestling is fake you guys. These two are gonna work together to have a good match! A good and completely pointless match with no story behind it!  Also, WM17 Angle VS Benoit. yes it was face VS Heel but it was booked only a week in advance and neither guy particularly showed animosity towards one another and they still tore it up. |

Make it a number 1 contender match or something.

Vince: "So you two want to do a match together? Sure, but we need to add some star power and size to the match to make it work. You two versus Kane and Big Show at Mania. And make sure to work your asses off, you might just go over. You just have to actually try to reach that brass ring!"

It still won't save the main event from getting crapped on, or the reactions not going the way they want (Lesnar cheered/Reigns booed).

Also, WM17 Angle VS Benoit. yes it was face VS Heel but it was booked only a week in advance and neither guy particularly showed animosity towards one another and they still tore it up. I always thought of Angle/Benoit as more heel vs. Heel since their entire story up to that point was teaming up against faces in handicap matches and being the foils for Austin and Rock. |

Yeah. Dolph is hanging onto that "stealing the show" thing. You're not HBK. It's not getting you anywhere sadly. I thought HBK was the "Showstopper" not the "Showstealer". Yeah, I know the difference of nickname. But HBK is Mr. Wrestlemania because he always stole the show. His record is terrible on the show. Dolph is trying to get over on always having the best match and it just isn't working for him like it did Mr. Michaels. |

Just have them agree to a match for respect and bill it the same way they did for HBK/Angle as the match that will be the showstealer between the Show Off and the leader of the Yes Movement....
Do it face vs face, but have one of them turn heel either during or after the finish.
It's a damn shame the IC and US belts are both so worthless that their addition to this program would be a lessening of it, because this could basically be the WWE version of Ibushi/Nakamura.

Yeah, I can see WWE wanting to book this.
And it'll be the best pre-show kick-off match there ever was, people! All four minutes of it before the Andre the Giant Whatevertational Battle Royal Thing Part 2!

Ambrose, Bryan and Ziggler interfere after the main event, and cost Reigns the title when Rollins cashes in.

A face vs face thing of them being all "We're both the best guys, we're both gonna prove this to the point The Authority cannot DARE overlook us again....but I'm the better 'best' guy, no offence" could actually be really, really good. They respect each other a ton, but respect themselves more, and are going to prove that both of them, but themselves especially, deserve to be next in line.
If you add the #1 contender stipulation to it it'd be tremendous. People have talked about Bryan having the "Savage/Steamboat" match to Reigns and Lesnar's "Hogan/Andre". Versus Ziggler is probably the best way to do that.

A good and completely pointless match with no story behind it! You know, I could buy that story in a kayfabe sense. Let me give an example, I'm a fencer. There's this one guy I basically grew up with that I always end up having stupidly close matches with because we know everything about each other. Those matches are incredibly close and have always ended with a score of 15-14(fencing goes up to 15 points). Now, let's say I was on the biggest stage of them all and knew that a ton of people were coming to watch. I wouldn't just want an easy match--because I'm a horrible, horrible showoff and would want a match where I can show my best. So I would want to have a bout with that guy, because I know he can push me to my limit and there's nothing more fun than having a stupidly close match while you show off to a crowd. So I could see this story making sense. Though as an aside I'll say you can get carded for showing off in fencing tournaments if the red judging your bout is a dick. BUT THAT'S BESIDE THE POINT |

But, everybody's got to remember, what about Sheamus?
I think what freeze put earlier about Ambrose/Bryan/Ziggler vs. Kane/Show/Sheamus is a terrible possibility.

I'm all for it, the top two fan fav faces stealing the show has the potential to be the best match of the card, by far. Book it!

I always thought of Angle/Benoit as more heel vs. Heel since their entire story up to that point was teaming up against faces in handicap matches and being the foils for Austin and Rock. My memory is a little hazy but yeah you're right that Benoit was still a heel while he and Angle were fighting Rock/Austin. I think Benoit officially became a face the week before Mania when he attacked Angle on RAW. |

They'll put in on the preshow, and turn it into a battle royale right before the match starts.
