I’d be okay if literally everyone in the Battle Royal got eliminated in about two minutes, aside from Owens/Zayn, leaving them to essentially have a single’s match.
Mania, for me, is usually one of the more disappointing shows of the year (thankfully Takeover and all these Indie promotions are having shows Mania weekend) so I could honestly care less about Shane being in the ring especially against Ziggler.

Wait so Owens and Zayn are going to be in the battle royal? Did I just read this right?
What an insult to both men.

Ya not to keen on the idea of a McMahon/Ziggler match up at Mania.If true the match would be fine in the ring,Shane get a ton of hate now days being nearly 50 but he just like the rest of his family always put on entertaining matches even if their not classic.But having that match now doesn't make any sense with no build or even a hit of a feud right now with only a month or less to go to Mania and more so the fact that this whole McMahon/Bryan/Owens/Zayn feud has been going on dating all the way back to last fall.So if theirs no payoff for that it would be a huge let down.As someone else pointed out if they wont let Bryan wrestle you could do McMahon/Ziggler Vs Owens/Zayn instead and have Bryan as the referee or something to finish off that storyline at Mania instead of a thrown together McMahon/Ziggler feud and having Owens & Zyan in the god awful Andre the Giant Battle Royal.
Really think WWE is making a mess out of the card for Wrestlemania this year and is just throwing crap together at the last minute.They have so much talent on the roster and are wasting it.What they should have done with Owens & Zayn is had them feud with the Usos for the Smackdown Tag Team Titles at Mania instead.Which would have been a great match up and something fresh.

Yeah, I just meant it as I’m super excited for Ricochet, and I don’t really care about EC3.

I'm not one of those guys that constantly complains about how "they are using them wrong" or "thats a waste of their talent" but......Zayn and Owens in the Battle Royal would be using them wrong and a complete waste of their talent. A one on one match between the two on the biggest stage in this industry could be something special.

Too much talent for everyone to have a proper match... but if Shane/Ziggler is a thing then KO/Sami should be a thing first.

Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn should compete for the Tag Team Championship, and Dolph Ziggler should be in the Andre The Giant Battle Royal.

I'd rather not see Shane in a match at WrestleMania but if we had to, I'd rather see Shane & a mystery opponent vs KO & Sami

Wrestlemania on paper this year looks like a train wreck.
You've got Brock/Roman, who if Roman avoids steroid scandal and Brock doesn't go AWOL, will still have the same result as the hypothetical Orton/Batista main event from 4 years ago, where both will be booed out of the building to close out the show. Then you're also boneing Braun Strowman by giving him nothing to do because you're afraid one of your two handpicked stars will need replacement and he's being punished for being super over.
Owens and Zayn are the biggest heel act going on Smackdown and somehow theres no room for them on the Mania card other than a battle royal that over the last few years has become less about memorializing a WWE legend and more about using it as a reason to throw in guys who have nothing better going on. Aka see last years winner Mojo Rawley and tell me theres any credibility left to this match.
You've got the most over tag team on Raw in Cesaro/Sheamus, and if reports are any indicator, they will have nothing but a segment on Wrestlemania. Yet somehow we have to make time for a likely 20+ minute Shane McMahon match because thats not a slap in the face to everyone working the roster year round to have not even a part timer, but an authority figure to come in and steal precious time away from those who've earned it.
Then you have the Cruiserweight tournament that you've already eliminated some of your most exciting guys from i.e. Bate, Itami. So now assuming now your finals will be what? Drew Gulak vs. Cedric Alexander?
Taker/Cena looks enticing but Taker hasn't had a good showing at Mania since his match with Punk 5 years ago, so I dare to assume a match with John Cena is going to prove otherwise.
Throw in a couple of matches that have some potential (IC, US, Raw Women's, SD Women's) and theres at least something to be hopeful for.
That pretty much leaves Nakamura/AJ to need to steal save the show

He’s like McIntyre to me. It’s cool he’s here, but I’m not yearning to see them at the very top of the card.

I hope this is just dirt sheet speculation and not really true. Shane has got to have his matchWhy? Just because his last name is McMahon? Pretty crappy reason to relegate Owens and Zayn to the battle royal. I have no interest in seeing Shane or Dolph in a singles match at WM. I think we're missing the bigger picture with Owens and Zayn. I can see them mad st each other for being in this situation and they go on a two man power trip and start eliminating everyone just so they can't be the last two in the ring so they can do a big brawl. They take it to the outside by going underneath the ropes and battle it out.

I'd rather have Zayn and Owens in a meaningful, well thought out match, Ziggler in a decent match if warranted, and Shane sitting behind a desk and staying outta the freaking ring.

Nobody on the entire roster is more overdue for a singles match at Mania than Dolph Ziggler. Period. Sami and Owens can right off onto the preshow if it means Dolph finally getting a sliver of spotlight at Mania. I think it’s a travesty it’s against Shane, and even worse he has to lose, but at least he’s getting a shot at a moment.

This is the reactive fallout of a decade of Part-Timing WM taking the spots of deserving guys like Ziggler. Everyone takes a backseat and now it's finally come to this where the current generation of talent (the Owens//Rollins/Zayns/Balors,etc.) are in thrown together, meaningless matches.
