WWE WrestleMania 35: 2 Legit reasons why the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal needs to be canceled

#1. It hasn't benefited a single Superstar till date

The first winner of the ATGMBR trophy, Cesaro, was aligned immediately with Paul Heyman. This storyline didn't go anywhere and he was soon relegated to mid-card status again. If it hadn't been for the formation of The Bar, Cesaro might've been future-endeavored by this point.

Baron Corbin, The Lone Wolf as they called him, won the match at WrestleMania 32. Today, he's one of the most despised Superstars on Raw. Not because he's a heel, but due to the fact that he has become too bland, to the point that the McMahon family had to fire him recently from the GM position, to please the fans.

Mojo Rawley had the looks and the charisma to become a top star and he ended up winning the 4th edition of the match, but he's not even on the roster at this moment. Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal benefits no one and is better off being canceled forever.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.

Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.

He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.

When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
