Ugh I hope not, last year it made sense for Shane to wrestle. Big stars were injured, unavailable, etc... This year it makes no sense to put Shane in a match. You have the talent... utilize it. And it hurts that much more knowing AJ (who should be main eventing Mania) will be relegated to that.

Odd match up for sure, looking forward to see how it's gonna be booked.

AJ Styles should be going into Mania as Champion, Plain and simple. WWE has really killed WM for me as i cant stand this way of booking they are doing. Guys will carry the company for 9 months out of the year but will be back burnered every year leading up to Mania season so all the part timers take all the prime spots. Cena/AJ should MAIN EVENT WM. That match would deliver and people can go home happy as Cena will win his 16th world title.
I dont know why WWE struggles so much to build WMs.

Ugh... I hate Shane McMahon's on my screen. 50yo guy trying to act tough and cool when he is neither. As others have have said, AJ deserves better. I'll take comfort in it being just 'rumoured' for now.

Guess it'll depend on the build for the match. If told correctly, I think this could be pretty decent.

I'd be all for it if it was for another PPV, but for Wrestlemania? There's no way AJ Styles should be wasted like that.

That'd be the best Spot Match in the company's history.

I had a feeling this was going to happen. Vince isn't high enough on Styles to put him in a main event type scenario, but he's high enough on him to ensure he has a "big" match. To Vince, facing Shane is a huge deal.

This would be an incredible slap in the face to AJ, much like what they did at WrestleMania 29 to Punk. I can't even say that I'm surprised. Nothing against Shane McMahon, but AJ deserves a much more prominent spot on top of the card. Have Shane face The Miz or somebody if they're so desperate to have him wrestle at WrestleMania again this year.

Well Vince did say there would be something we'd love.

I'm cool with Shane wrestling at mania just not against AJ. Yeah I was thinking the same, then I struggled to think of anyone that would benefit from it or hasn't got far better options.

Ambrose was made to look like a joke. Shane vs taker
Wyatt Family looking like clowns for Rock and Cena
HHH ( with steph ) in the main event

Could be shades of Shane vs Angle from King of the Ring 2001, and it's not like there's a great deal of other options for AJ at this WrestleMania anyway. If Taker and Cena are tied up with each other, then for Styles it's either match #87509505 against Ambrose, or a high-profile match against a nostalgia part-timer.

Bring in Omega and give me Styles vs Kenny, or Styles vs Owens, or Styles vs Zayn. Literally anything other than this.

Personally, I do not need to see Shane McMahon take a WM spot away from a real wrestler yet again just so he can have a boring match that is purely to build up to some stupidly insane stunt man fall into a crash pad.
Give Shane a talking heads segment and let the wrestlers do the wrestling.

With the roster and talent this company has there is absolutely no reason to even se a McMahon on tv, stop with the stupid figure head angle man it has been going on for twenty years, it is a tiresome,formula.
Plus Shane doesn't need to take a spot from a dude that has busted his ass for his family all year long. So tired of the not even part timers returning and taking spots.

So true i'm a UFC fan. I don't see Dana White stepping into the octagon, challenging any of his fighters to a fight. because he is not a fighter. just like Shane is not a wrestler.

Hmm not the match I would book and as most have already pointed out AJ real should be walking into Wrestlemania as the WWE Champion and defending his title in the main event,he's more then errand that over the past year just like CM Punk did back during the WM 27-29 but never got the chance to main event.But with that said if they want Styles out of the WWE Title picture a match against Shane isn't a horrible idea and would still be one of the marque matches on the card.Styles is the best worker in the company and arguably the most over full time active star and Shane always has delivered in the ring when he's need.As someone else pointed out Styles/McMahon could very well be like Angle/McMahon back at KOTR in '01 which happened to be one of the best matches of that year.
If they go Styles/McMahon at Mania and the other rumor of Taker facing someone from RAW without a title being on the line I really wonder who Cena would defend the WWE Title against at Mania ?
