Do you care about this match at all going in?

Apologies if that sounds harsh and like some internet writer just wants to lambast WWE booking for the sake of it, but...this tag doesn't feel 'Mania worthy. Rey Mysterio and Dragon Lee vs. Santos Escobar and Dominik comes across as something people would expect to see on SmackDown, not on April's spectacular.

Hell, it'd barely fit onto a 'B' level PLE. This is a TV match dressed up to give some folks a nice WrestleMania payday. That's cool and all, but the worry is that fans in Philadelphia use Rey and Dom's latest father vs. son chapter to go check out merch or visit the bathrooms. What a bummer that'd be.

Rey likely doesn't have too many 'Mania appearances left in him, so it doesn't sit well to picture thousands of disinterested punters strolling around the stadium glancing at the ring in between conversations with stewards about where the nearest restroom is.
