Wwe has removed (kickoff match) label from the sd women's title match and Becky lynch tweeted thanking the fans saying it's happening #Wrestlemania.
I can only assume the sd women's title match is back on the main Card.

He is a world famous wrestler and a huge draw. People pay to see Samoa Joe and WWE should be grateful to have him on the roster because he's one of their biggest ever signings in recent memory. Stars who bring tons of money to the table need to be on the main show because they are the main attractions. Sorry, but I have to disagree. Joe is at the bottom of a long list of current/former NXT acquisitions (Finn Balor, Shinsuke Nakamura, Kevin Owens most recently, not to mention AJ Styles) and I would not consider him a huge draw for WWE. He has never been the focal point of TNA and even then, I can't imagine nonsubscribers subscribing to the Network if and only if Joe were on the main card. He's been on the main roster for barely a month and is not entitled to a main roster match at WrestleMania. Let's be honest, WWE only picked him up because they are simply monopolizing as much talent as possible. I will never understand the throbbing erection everyone on here seems to have for him.

Yes! Yes! Yes! In reponse to fan outrage over the decision to relegate it to the pre-show, WWE have since moved the SmackDown Women's Championship match to the main card! As well they should! It was a complete insult to ever have it on the pre-show in the first place, and would have completely undermined the women's revoltion. The whole point of the women's revolution was to give them importance and shine a spotlight on them, not to deem them not important enough to make it on the main card of WrestleMania. I had hoped the days of only having a single womens match on the main card of each WrestleMania were behind us, and thankfully, we are. I cannot express how happy I am with this outcome, after the extreme disappointment of seeing it relegated to the pre-show earlier in the week. As long as they don't relegate either of the womens matches to the kick-off, I'm happy. They can put the 205 Live match and the triple threat RAW Tag Team titles match on the kick-off. If they make a SmackDown Tag Team titles match, that will almost certainly be on the kick-off too. Andre the Giant memorial battle royal could be on the pre-show again too. If they make Samoa Joe VS Sami Zayn, that could go on the pre-show too. If the mere idea of Samoa Joe being relegated to the pre-show is apparently "unacceptable", then relegating either of the womens title matches to the pre-show is even more unacceptable, as it would totally undermine the women's revolution. A whole division is worth far more than a single star. And I'm sorry, but if you honestly think Samoa Joe is worth far more than women's wrestling, then you've got your head stuck in the past. I don't mean to be rude but why do you believe that it's OK for the tag teams to go on the pre show and not the Women? The Raw tag match was on the last PPV's pre show so it's totally unfair on Gallows and Anderson if they have to defend again on the pre show. Another thing Enzo and Cass will get a mega ear deafning reaction so I doubt WWE would want one of their most over teams not to be on the actual card. As for the Smackdown tag titles well yes they mean nothing so throw them on the pre show if needed. Also you seem to underestimate Samoa Joe. He is a wrestling icon and is huge, huge money. He and AJ Styles were two of the companies biggest signings of this decade. He is a huge draw and does not belong on a pre show. I appreciate your civility. As to why it's okay for the RAW Tag Team titles match be on the pre-show but not the women, that's because as I've mentioned before, deeming either of the womens title matches as not important enough to be on the main card would be slap in the face and completely undermine the women's revolution. There simply needs to be more equality in WWE, which was the whole point of the women's revolution. The RAW tag team title match is just more male performers. 12 female performers to 20-something male performers is a much better balance than 6 female performers to 20-something male performers. Not only that, but before the ladder stipulation was made, I expected the RAW tag team title match to be on the pre-show because it was one of the lowest matches on the card when it came to star power. The RAW tag team division in WWE is not really much of a priority either, with the only solid teams in the division in this match. However, with addition of the Ladder match stipulation, that's raised the importance of this match to the point that I doubt it'll be on the pre-show. Honestly, without meaning any disrespect, I think you're overestimating Samoa Joe. He's not exactly a wrestling icon. When I see the term "wrestling icon", I think of stars like Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Ric Flair, Ultimate Warrior, The Undertaker, Stone Cold Steve Austin, Bret Hart, John Cena, Triple H, Chris Jericho, Sting. I could go on. I do not think of Samoa Joe. He is definitely a solid star, who is well known regardless. But not really an icon. I wouldn't label him as a huge draw either. Solid draw? Yes. Huge draw? No. Besides, WWE aren't against well known, longtime stars appearing on the pre-show either. Big Show and Ryback have both been on previous pre-shows multiple times, proving it's not just for the lowest stars. When you have stars like Big Show, to a much larger extent, and Ryback, to a much lesser extent, on pre-shows, you can't really rule Samoa Joe out from being too big of a star to be on the pre-show. And quite honestly, if Samoa Joe wasn't big enough to start straight off on the main roster like AJ Styles, then I can't see him as too big to be on a pre-show.
