#2 The SmackDown card doesn't scream excitement
As The Grandest Stage of Them All is looming near, things aren't looking promising for the SmackDown brand.
From what we have seen so far, we're going to get Shane McMahon vs The Miz at WrestleMania 35. This match wouldn't be able to evoke any emotion from the sea of fans, considering how their short term title reign didn't exactly set the stage on fire.
The SmackDown Women's champion Asuka was nowhere to be seen until this past week when she lost to Mandy Rose on SmackDown.
She has been completely sidelined in favor of the Raw Women's title match. If the rumors are to be believed, Asuka will be facing the brand new NXT addition to the main roster, Lacey Evans. This already looks like a throwaway match considering the buildup hasn't even begun yet.
With a card like this, featuring Bryan vs Owens as the blue brand's main event will only make things worse.
