I actually do kind of agree the ladder match is the right call. Us hardcore rasslin'/NXT fans would love it because for us it's been building for a very long time. To the casual fan, Zayn isn't at the level to warrant a 1-on-1 title match at WrestleMania yet. The live crowd would be into it. The live Mania crowd isn't a good representation of the majority of the people watching though.
Then again, looking at how unappealing the card is, I guess it couldn't hurt too much...
