Which match do you think should open Wrestlemania? A great opener has to get the fans off their seats. Get the people going. In recent years we have had Rollins vs Balor vs Miz, Shane vs Miz, ladder matches for the intercontinental championship and Daniel Bryan vs Triple H. All matches that were exciting and got the ball rolling.

So which match do you think will do that this year?

I think Kofi vs Bryan could easily start off Mania with a high. But maybe it will be better to leave later on the card.

The Smackdown tag titles match looks to have lots of talented guys. Might as well make it into a big ladder match. Nakamura Rusev vs Hardy Boys vs The Bar vs The Usos vs The New Day.

Roman vs Corbin/Drew. Why not?

I think the best choice is Orton vs Aj. That match has the potential to be great.

Kofi and Bryan is a safe start. They will use HHH and Batista half way through, probably after a womens match.

Are we talking about opening the main show or Pre-show?

Pre-show will be either the Andre Battle Royal or the Women's Battle Royal and the first match of the main show will be Smackdown Tag probably or Asuka's match

Opener of the actual show. Thought I made that clear when I mentioned past openers.

Orton definitely should win. AJ should go to Raw. Orton needs the win more.

I'm leaning towards Styles vs Orton as well, they could really benefit from those enthusiastic crowd reactions early on and set the mood for the rest of the night. In general, you can't go wrong with Styles here, he even turned a normal ass 1v1 match with Shane into a great opener and one of the best matches of the night.

Speaking of Shane, him vs Miz also feels like an opener to me but I'm not even sure what to expect from this match in general. So if it does open the show, they better have something cool planned for it

Dang, I guess I'm going to have to share in this popular vote of Styles vs Orton. Which is funny because I just knew everyone was gonna hate on Randy so harshly. But I am truly surprised how everyone has interest in this match

So I agree that Styles vs Orton is possibly the best choice considering the recent booked or "possibly booked" matches. I still feel like Rey and Joe will also have a good match if not great and I wish Samoa Joe had another type of finisher, something creative yet hard hitting.

I can see the United States title be a multiman match. I hope its Joe vs Rey tho.

The match lengths are going to be interesting. Most of these matches will be 10 minutes long or less.
