Only Vince McMahon Wanted WrestleMania To Take Place

Can you blame them? We are coming up on WrestleMania 36 in less than ten days, but for once that date does not mean as much, at least not for the wrestlers. Instead, this time around the show has already been taped in advance, which worked out very well for WWE since they may not be able to run shows at the Performance Center, at least for the time being. With new regulations banning such events, WrestleMania was taped in advance, though not everyone is happy.

There have been a lot of criticisms and discussions about the entire situation, as there comes a point where it might have been better off to just cut the losses and wait for things to get better. That isn’t WWE’s style though and as a result, we are getting the pay per view next weekend whether we like it or not. It turns out that a lot of the wrestlers would be in the “not” category.

According to PW Insider Elite Audio, “everyone” in WWE is against going forward with WrestleMania at this point except for Vince McMahon himself. However, McMahon himself issued the order that WrestleMania must take place in some for or another at this time, meaning the show must go on. There is no word on what the disagreement could mean for any of the wrestlers involved.

McMahon alone seems to want the show. Check out some of his moments at the shows of the past:

Opinion: Can you blame them? I know the checks will still be there and everything, but when you believe that the show is going to be in front of 75,000 people and it’s going to wind up being a glorified training session, it isn’t exactly the best news. McMahon does seem to be alone in thinking this is a good idea, but that has never stopped him before. Hopefully the show is good, because the company could be in an even worse place if it isn’t.
