What could have been. WrestleMania has been the biggest wrestling event of the year for the better part of forty years now and that seems likely to be the case for a long time to come. Everyone seems to be working especially hard and showcasing everything that they can do, which can include all kinds of special features. That was to be the case with someone else this year, but it did not wind up happening.
One of the matches on WrestleMania 38 Night One saw Drew McIntyre defeat Happy Corbin. A photo has been posted to Instagram, showing a group of men in kilts backstage at AT&T Stadium. The caption says that the group, called the Kilted Warriors, were supposed to accompany McIntyre to the ring but the entrance was canceled. This was not the only thing canceled on the show, as a match between the New Day and Ridge Holland/Sheamus was moved to the second night due to time constraints.

Opinion: This is something that is going to happen from time to time, but there is something odd about a show running four plus hours and still having time issues. It wasn’t like the show had a ton of matches, but you would think that WWE could find a way to trim something else down. The match was early in the show too, meaning it didn’t have time to be really bogged down. It could have been a cool moment but alas we didn’t get to see anything happen.
What did you think of the idea? Who had the best WrestleMania entrance? Let us know in the comments below.
