Predicting WWE's WrestleMania 35 Card After Royal Rumble 2019

11. The Two Battle Royal Matches

Let's face it, people, those Kickoff show Battle Royals are happening, and there's nothing anybody can do about it.

The best course of action for anyone who finds them hard to stomach is to skip the pre-show festivities completely. Unless endless hype packages and a bevy of predictable comments from panel "experts" happens to be your jam, then you won't be missing anything anyway.

This is WWE's way of squeezing as many wrestlers as possible onto the card so everyone can share a little bit of that 'Mania wealth. It's a generous idea, no doubt, but it hardly helps the show's overall quality, and it won't again if we get that double helping of over-the-top-rope snoozers in New Jersey.

There's a chance the Kickoff will also feature another Cruiserweight Title match too. If so, grab a look at that before immediately tuning out and saving energy for the main card. If recent shows are anything to go by, it's sure to be a long one.
