Ranking the most exciting matches on the WWE WrestleMania 34 card

Author: Nick Schwartz / Source: For The Win

The 34th edition of WrestleMania is almost here, and WWE has put together what is arguably the most stacked card in the history of the event for this Sunday in New Orleans.

A total of nine championships will be put on the line, Daniel Bryan will make his return to the wrestling ring for the first time since 2015, Ronda Rousey will make her WWE debut, and The Undertaker might make one final walk down the ramp.

A modern WrestleMania has become a six-hour epic, which is a lot of wrestling to watch even for hardcore fans. Which matches on the card are ones you can’t afford to miss on Sunday? We ranked the 13 official and one rumored match from the WrestleMania 34 card, from least to most exciting. The main card begins at 7:00 p.m. ET on the WWE Network.

14. Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal

The annual Battle Royal is a great way to feature all of the talent that didn’t make the cut for a singles or tag match later in the card, but the winner hasn’t gone on to do much afterward, historically. Last year’s Battle Royal was taken over by Rob Gronkowski, so maybe noted WWE fan Drew Brees shows up as a surprise entrant at the Superdome?

13. Randy Orton vs. Bobby Roode vs. Jinder Mahal vs. Rusev in a fatal four-way for the United States Championship

It’s a testament to how unbelievably stacked this WrestleMania card is that the United States title match is 13th, but here we are. This should be a solid bout and could lead SmackDown in a number of interesting directions depending on the winner. 75,000 fans chanting “Rusev Day” will be a sight to behold.

12. Cesaro and Sheamus vs. Braun Strowman and a mystery partner for the Raw Tag Team Championship

Braun Strowman likely has a long list of WrestleMania main events ahead of him, but 2018 is not his year.

He could still leave New Orleans as the Raw Tag Team Champion, and who he selects as his tag team partner is one of the great mysteries of the show (Bray Wyatt? The Big Show? Elias?).

11. WrestleMania Women’s Battle Royal

There will be more representation for the Women’s Division at WrestleMania than ever before thanks to the inaugural Women’s Battle Royal, which features a number of huge stars in Sasha Banks, Becky Lynch and Bayley. We’ll also hopefully see a few NXT stars – Kairi Sane was a huge hit in the Royal Rumble – and the return of some legends.

10. The Usos vs. The New Day vs. The Bludgeon Brothers in a triple threat match for the SmackDown Tag Team Championship

The Usos have been on fire over the past few months, and the twin brothers will finally get a chance to wrestle in a championship match on the main card of a WrestleMania. The New Day are always exciting, and The Bludgeon Brothers (Harper and Rowan) come to WrestleMania wielding hilariously large hammers. What’s not to like?

9. Alexa Bliss vs. Nia Jax for the Raw Women’s Championship

WWE fans have been embracing Nia Jax in recent months, and her showdown with former best friend Alexa Bliss has one of the best storylines behind it of any WrestleMania 34 feud.
