WrestleMania 35: 8 Unforgivable mistakes that Vince McMahon could make at the PPV

WrestleMania 35, which is taking place in New York City, is just around the corner and the bumper sixteen match card threatens to be one of the best WrestleMania shows the WWE has ever put on.

We have the potential to see several incredible WrestleMania moments that the WWE Universe will remember for quite some time with fan favorites Becky Lynch and Kofi Kingston poised to overcome massive odds, Kurt Angle set to wrestle his last match and question marks over The Undertaker and John Cena's status for the show.

However, there are several decisions that Vince McMahon and the writing team could make for the booking of WrestleMania that would be disastrous. But what are the things that WWE should absolutely avoid at all costs if they are to have a successful show?

We take a look at the seven unforgivable mistakes Vince McMahon could make at WrestleMania.

#8. No twist in Kurt Angle's retirement match story

Will Baron Corbin actually be Kurt Angle's final WWE opponent? Let's hope not!

I am certainly not among those that would consider themselves a Baron Corbin hater. In fact, I think he's done some positively wonderful work as a heel on the Raw roster successfully garnering sustained heat from the WWE Universe and he has been one of WWE's more consistent performers.

The payoff match between Baron Corbin and Kurt Angle at WrestleMania also makes sense given that Corbin has been a constant thorn in Angle's side for several months, adding that element of catharsis for everyone when 'The Olympic Gold Medalist' overcomes his adversary.

But, I am one of the people that feel that a final match against Baron Corbin isn't a befitting way out for one of professional wrestling's best and most successful personalities. That's exactly why WWE should have Angle both beat Baron Corbin and then should reveal a more fitting final opponent, someone like Undertaker or John Cena for example.

#7. Not letting Kofi Kingston win the WWE Championship

Kofi Kingston has to win the WWE Title at WrestleMania!

WWE's original plans for the WWE Championship match at WrestleMania may have been derailed by the sudden, yet not at all undeserved or unwanted, the rise of Kofi Kingston following his standout performance at the Elimination Chamber.

But here we are with an unexpected, but an extremely anticipated storyline with Kingston finally getting a shot at a world title after over ten years of being overlooked, having overcome every obstacle thrown at him by fellow wrestlers and even Vince McMahon himself.

The stakes are incredibly high with a heel Daniel Bryan the best he's ever been trying to stop Kingston from becoming a Grand Slam Champion and becoming the first black WWE Champion. In doing so, WWE would be rewarding one of their longest tenured wrestlers and would be taking a huge step forward progressively. In short, Kingston beating Bryan is the right decision.

#6. Retiring Triple H

Triple H can still go in the ring, which is why he shouldn't go from the ring yet

If you had told me this time last year that we could be one match away from Triple H never wrestling again, I might have snapped your hand off and taken the opportunity to stop 'The Game' from taking a WrestleMania spot from someone else.

Plus, having Batista be Triple H's weakness and retaining the fact that he can never overcome 'The Animal' leading to his actual retirement from in-ring competition would be a good story to tell.

But Triple H, unlike other legends like Kurt Angle and Undertaker, absolutely looks like he still has more in him, even with the fact he suffered an arm injury recently. Retiring 'The King of Kings' now would be too soon in my opinion, which means he has to triumph over Batista.

#5. Not featuring the Cruiserweight Title on the main card

Let the Cruiserweights appear on the main card!

Anyone who has watched at least one episode of 205 Live will attest that they remain consistently bewildered whenever WWE makes the decision to relegate the Cruiserweight Title match from the main card onto the pre-show.

Sure, there's the argument that being on the pre-show is an honor because WWE trusts you to drum up sales for the PPV's main card. However, Neville and Austin Aries were cruiserweights on the pre-show of WrestleMania and they've both indicated they weren't paid the Mania bonus for the match.

And if there's one thing Buddy Murphy and Tony Nese, and by extension, the rest of the 205 Live roster deserve, it's to be rewarded for the hard work and killer matches they've put on week-in and week-out with a proper spotlight on the WrestleMania stage.

#4. Not having Becky Lynch win

Becky Lynch should win - that's it

Let's get this one out of the way. I know there have been rumors and suggestions that WWE are considering doing anything else other than having 'The Man' Becky Lynch becoming Raw and SmackDown Women's Champion at WrestleMania.

That would be the single worst decision the WWE would ever make in their entire history. Yes, it would surpass Katie Vick, yes it would surpass any other decision you think is bad. Sure, you might not be a Lynch fan, you might be tired of 'The Man' but you must objectively admit she's the right decision to win,

That's about all there is to say on this one. Becky Lynch should win. That's it!

#3. Demon Finn Balor losing

Demon Finn Balor should remain undefeated!

Whilst we're on the subject of people who must absolutely win at WrestleMania, add 'Demon' Finn Balor to the list. 'The Demon' is undefeated in WWE and should 100% remain that way following the 'Grandest Stage of Them All'.

Don't get me wrong. I don't really understand 'The Demon' character. There's no new move-set, no supernatural explanation, it just seems that Finn Balor puts on some body paint and for no explainable reason, his moves hit harder.

But I enjoy the pageantry of 'The Demon' and the mystique surrounding the character nonetheless as much as I don't enjoy Bobby Lashley... at all. Putting a bland Bobby Lashley (even with Lio Rush) over 'The Demon' would be a tragedy.

#2. Not having a Shield farewell

The Shield should bow out at WrestleMania

I know that the Shield have technically had their farewell moment during the last PPV when they overcame the rag-tag bunch of Drew McIntyre, Bobby Lashley, and Baron Corbin and triumphantly stood in the ring as a trio for the last time.

That's because Dean Ambrose is allegedly on his way out of the WWE following WrestleMania having decided not to renew his contract with the company.

So, with not one, but two members of The Shield competing in matches the WWE have two chances to get Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns in the ring for one last, last time. Something they should absolutely do!

#1. Letting Undertaker wrestle

Please don't wrestle Undertaker, please

The Undertaker isn't booked for a match at WrestleMania and there doesn't seem to be any indication of a spontaneous match with 'The Deadman' happening like last year with John Cena. And it should stay that way.

I have seen enough of The Undertaker struggling his way through matches when he shouldn't be wrestling anymore, and I'm done. I have no desire to see Undertaker in a match this WrestleMania regardless of who the opponent might be.

That being said, I would be going bonkers if 'Taker were to make a surprise appearance at the show. I just hope it's not in an in-ring capacity.
