• Fan Starts Petition To Put Pre-Show Match On The Main Show Of WrestleMania 34 – Says It Will At Least Be A 3.5 Star Match

WWE announced on this week’s Raw that the Cruiserweight Title match, Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal & WrestleMania Women’s Battle Royal will take place on the WrestleMania 34 Kickoff Show.

After this announcement was made, a fan started the following petition:

Put WWE’s Cruiserweight Championship Match On The Main Card Of WrestleMania

“Cedric Alexander and Mustafa Ali are two of the company’s most talented cruiserweights and their championship match has been reduced to the Kickoff Show of WrestleMania! These two men have worked really hard to get to this PPV, and as talented they are, they should at the very least be the first match on the main card. The fans need to have to watch them in order for them to get more exposure. They will put on a 3 1/2 star match at the very least. All you have to do is give them the well-deserved platform they deserve!”

As of this writing, 1,688 fans have signed the petition. You can check it out by clicking here.
