Pro: High profile opponent for WrestleMania 34

Although winning the match is the primary goal for Balor, especially if he hopes to get back into the title picture, a loss might set up a chance for him to take on some high profile opponents at WrestleMania. In fact, Balor could do anything from fight for The Miz's Intercontinental title, to earn a marquee match with John Cena.
Again, that's probably not what fans are looking for in terms of Balor's WrestleMania moment, but it is a lot better than him being relegated further and further down the card. In the end, at least a match against John Cena, The Miz or even Braun Strowman would help raise his stock a bit for a Universal Title shot down the line.
