It needs to open in 'Demonic' fashion.

Forget the pre-show Battle Royals, and apologies in advance to the Cruiserweights, but WrestleMania doesn't really start for most until that fireworks display and the main card's first match. It's important that's a doozy, or at least something memorable, The Intercontinental Title match is perfect.

It's kinda' lost in the shuffle elsewhere anyway and has a thrown-together feel to it. Seeing Finn Bálor's 'Demon' kick off 'Mania sounds special, and that's what should happen. OK, so the gimmick might be better as the sun sets, but beggars can't be choosers, and the IC lot are most definitely less important than others.

A title change to start WrestleMania right would be nice, and so would putting an end to the pretence that Bobby Lashley is a better candidate for the belt than Bálor. This is the 'Mania moment Finn has been dreaming of, surely.
