10 Reasons You Should STILL Be Excited For WrestleMania 36

5. Braun Vs. Roman?

WrestleMania 36 still has Goldberg vs. Roman Reigns on the billing despite 'The Big Dog's' pull-out. This means we'll likely get a SmackDown angle fixing it, with Braun Strowman Roman's likeliest replacement.

We're in for something fun regardless of the outcome.

Health permitting, Reigns is a likely first challenge for whoever walks away with the gold. If it's Strowman, that means a reprisal of the awesome, bruising feud that put 'The Monster Among Men' on the map in the first place and constantly brought out the best in both wrestlers, highlighting many a 2017 show.

If it's Goldberg, then Spear vs. Spear is back on the menu, baby. Let's not forget the simmering intensity of their interactions thus far. As old as Bill is, he can still project - and who's to say they can't rip the Lesnar/Goldberg WrestleMania 33 format? Nothing but big bombs, big moves, and big impact.

Whatever happens, the Universal Championship picture should emerge from WrestleMania 36 healthier than before - and Strowman's coronation is long overdue. Toppling a legend like Goldberg would go some way to numbing the disappointing of past failures.
