Quoted from wwe.com:

"The stage is set for an instant classic on The Grandest Stage of Them All as WWE Champion AJ Styles will defend his WWE Title against Shinsuke Nakamura in a WrestleMania showdown between two absolute masters of the squared circle.

In the 2018 Men’s Royal Rumble Match, the charismatic Nakamura entered at No. 14, battling tooth-and-nail in an all-out melee before ultimately eliminating Roman Reigns to earn a World Title opportunity. Without missing a beat, The Artist announced that he will challenge The Phenomenal One at The Showcase of the Immortals on April 8.

The storied history, unmatched talent and explosive nature of both The Phenomenal One and The King of Strong Style guarantees a tremendous contest, combining skill, faced-paced intensity and a mutual desire to win at any costs.

Who will emerge from The Showcase of the Immortals with the WWE’s most prestigious title around their waist? What will the two Superstars do in the coming weeks on SmackDown LIVE to gain important momentum? And considering the turbulent nature of The Road to WrestleMania, is this match truly set in stone?"

Well, since when were we watching a second Wrestle Kingdom this year?

For those who do not know (although a sizable chunk do as we're a bunch of smarks), this match is a rematch of a match at Wrestle Kingdom 10, which was a modern classic and one of the stand out matches of the event(which is pretty big considering AJ Styles was working through a back injury). That was the only time they faced one on one, until now.

If this match is given more time than the letdown of a WWE Championship match last year, and they let both men do what they want, then this may be the show-stealer this year at Wrestlemania. All I am wondering about is the build. How can we get the storyline to get to the Wrestlemania levels of hype? The prospect of a great match is enough to some, especially the hardcore fans, but to some of the casual fans, they may need that extra story to tug on their heartstrings. So, what do you guys think? Hyped? What do you think they should do for the build to this match? And do you think this should main event?

I think it will be a fine match, but I'm rather of seen AJ Styles vs Seth Rollins.

Rollins should of won the royal rumble and jumped to Smackdown
