Mania - Stars or Stories?

When planning Mania, the ideal is to have your big stars and big feuds with stories that draw fans and make them want to watch, but obviously there is a spontaneous side to wrestling and stories can come about on their own, organically.

A good example of this this year is Miz and Mizdow, the fans have been loving what they both created for months now and there is a big chance to have a match at Mania where the crowd will be emotionally invested. So do you do that match with lesser stars and a story, or do you put it on the pre-show and have a Sheamus return match instead. Star or Story?

I think that the art of telling a story is something that is getting lost in a world of 5 minute matches and that Mania should be the one place where this is maintained. It might be controversial, but I would rather see Bray Wyatt having a story with someone on the roster than cutting promos on someone who isn't there. But does the spectacle of their entrances make up for the lack of story for some people?

Another example is Goldust/Stardust, I feel like this is years in the making and even though the feud is young, there is so much back story they can use. Goldust, who has had a phenomenal career and was a truly unique star, where I doubt even Vince thought he could make Goldust work, fighting against a younger brother who feels he has had to put on the makeup just to get seen or noticed, when his ability should have been enough. He is resentful and now the father is involved too. For me, that is crying out for a traditional cage match blowoff at Mania with Dusty at ringside. So much story and emotion there. For me, that's what Mania should be about and the likes or Orton, Sheamus and even Taker, should be sacrificed so the guys who have been telling us a story all year, have a chance to shine.

Thoughts? Agree or Disagree? It can be both, but where you have to choose, stars or story?
