Match #4: United States Championship Match: Chris Jericho [c] vs. Kevin Owens
Trending
As much as Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho do deserve better, we need to be realistic. With the other matches involving more prestigious titles, this match won’t be that high on the card. This is despite the fact that Kevin Owens and Chris Jericho have been carrying the RAW brand for months.
But WWE is WWE, and they seem more interested in making a show that caters to as many casual, uninvested fans on one night than rewarding the workhorses that carry the show year-round.
Despite it’s lower spot on the card, you can be sure this match will be aggressive and violent. There’s bad blood between these two men, and their rivalry will reach a fever pitch at WrestleMania 33. So this match will be the biggest match of the card thus far and is likely to be given the most time from the first three matches.
Match #5: SmackDown Women’s Championship Match
With a show featuring this many big matches, there is bound to be one match that people will either care less about or will use as a bathroom break. And as much as I don’t want it to be this way, odds are the SmackDown women’s match is going to fill that slot.
With three matches before it, including a high-profile match between Jericho and Owens, the fans will need a moment to either wind down, go to the bathroom, or get some food. With so many scheduled matches, it’s likely WWE will make this year’s WrestleMania into a marathon event just like they did last year. Because of that, fans will naturally need a break from the wrestling, and this match is likely to be the first one to give fans a reprieve.
