Split them up. We are less than five days away from WrestleMania 40 and that means it is time to get everything going for the show. With so little time remaining, it is time to start putting the final touches on the show and that can include quite a few things. One such thing is splitting the show into two nights, which is what was done this week, with the card being officially announced.

In a series of posts on Twitter, WWE COO Triple H announced the two cards for Saturday and Sunday nights. Night One will include seven matches while Night Two will include six matches.

It should be big. Check out how we got to some of these matches:
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that you only get to see once a year and it should make for a huge weekend. WrestleMania 40 has been built up incredibly well and now we get to see how well WWE can make the whole payoff work. At the end of the day, WWE has all kinds of talent around and they are all going to want to steal the show, which many of them very well could do.
