10 Big Concerns Heading Into WWE WrestleMania 37

6. Lack Of Star Power

It's definitely nice to see so many current WWE stars featured on the card. Yes, WrestleMania 37 is the first time in a very long time that there isn't a huge part-time or semi-retired star competing in a major match. That being said, it does leave the WrestleMania card feeling a little short when it comes to big names.

Now, don't get your writer all wrong here. There are plenty of big names there. Names like Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins, Sasha Banks and Roman Reigns - all of whom will no doubt attract attention from fans. But WrestleMania is notorious for attracting the attention of people outside of the WWE Universe regulars - be it non-wrestling fans, old wrestling fans or curious and potentially future wrestling fans.

That's why having huge names like The Undertaker, Triple H, Brock Lesnar or The Rock featured in part-time roles was more necessary around times like 'Mania, because they are reminders of the time that WWE transcended its own genre to become a much bigger juggernaut than it is now and they could continue to draw fans to the product in ways that the younger stars couldn't.

Yes, the current WWE roster deserves this spotlight but without the major names of yesteryear, WrestleMania will feel quite strange. Here's hoping for at least a cameo appearance from one or two of them.
