"
Bryan: Not everybody, obviously, but a whole bunch of people in WWE creative all watched the Kenny Omega vs. Kazuchika Okada match. And the idea today is, now, they want a great main event at WrestleMania.

Vinny: Oh, now they decided to have a good main event?

Bryan: Well, they want to close the show with like a great match. So I guess that eliminates Braun Strowman from main-eventing."

Don't take Brian and Vinny that seriously. Especially Brian.

I'd take Bryan's statement somewhat seriously as he does have contacts in WWE and I doubt he'd say something like that without thinking. Obviously not Vinny since he isn't a reporter.
Brian has zero idea what he is talking about. He doesn't even watch much wrestling anymore. He literally has people watch for him and tell him what's going on and he shoots from the hip

AJ is on Smackdown. That alone should tell you he is not in the main event at mania. RAW will main event mania 9 times out of 10

Where yo' grandma stay.
I can't see anyone on the current RAW roster that is capable of having an above average +++ match other than Owens,Rollins, Jericho, Zayn and Balor. Odds are none of them will be involved with the Main event.

What match would even have the potential to be great? AJ/HBK?
Well to be fair its entirely subjective. If you're going by what would get a five star rating from Meltzer I'm not sure, if you threw The Revival and American Alpha out there to headline a Mania (Which they wont obviously) then it probably could hit five stars.

AJ vs Cesaro could get it done I think. But Cesaro would need a lot of build for it to make sense

Meltzer seems to factor the build and promos into it as seen with Punk/Cena and I doubt Cesaro could hold that one up.
Meltzer also hand out 5 stars to the young bucks like it was candy. He has his obvious biases. Very few WWE matchups would be able to get anything close to 6 stars from Meltzer since it just isn't a product he prefers. To Dave's credit he acknowledges that he has stuff he prefers most of the time.

Bryan refuses to admit that Miz is a good wrestler because he doesn't think Miz deserves to be married to Maryse
