5 Reasons why NXT TakeOver: Orlando could be better than WWE WrestleMania 33

NXT TakeOver: Orlando will be the 15th live special presented by the black-and-yellow brand.

#1 An actually anticipated rematch in the main event

Bobby Roode vs. Shinsuke Nakamura created

For the sixth straight year, a part-timer will be headlining WrestleMania, and for the first time ever, two part-timers will be involved in the 'Mania main event. Needless to say, that isn't the best message to send regarding the current roster and how much faith the company has in them to sell tickets.

Sure, Goldberg vs. Lesnar is arguably the biggest bout WWE can do at the moment, but after their first two encounters were massive disappointments, fans shouldn't expect their WrestleMania match to be any better. It won't be the most exhilarating 'Mania main event of all-time, though Bobby Roode vs. Shinsuke Nakamura for the NXT Championship at TakeOver: Orlando should pick up the slack.

Those two went head-to-head at TakeOver: San Antonio and contested a killer match. Nakamura has been in hot pursuit of the title ever since and it's a rematch that is sure to satisfy fans, unlike the WrestleMania main event.
