WRESTLING RUMORS: WWE Shoots Down Several Possible Day One Changes

That’s a big negative. We are coming up on WWE Day One, which will be taking place for the first time in the company’s history. The event is being held on the first day of the year to mark the beginning of a new year. That should be enough to make the show feel unique, but WWE has some more ideas in mind for the event. It just turns out that we will not be seeing any of them.

The WrestleVotes Twitter account is reporting that multiple ideas were pitched to change up the look of the Day One pay per view. These included changing the rope colors to the mat colors to different camera angles. However, all of the ideas were rejected, meaning that as of Friday evening, the show will be presented as usual with no changes of any kind from the normal look.

In coordination w/ the Day 1 theme, multiple presentation ideas were discussed regarding the look & feel of tomorrow’s PPV. Everything from different rope colors, mat colors, camera angles etc and from what I’m told ALL were declined. Sheesh.

WWE has tried some New Year’s stuff before. Check out some of their shows from the New Year’s events:

Opinion: If there is a more WWE response than “nah, we’re good with not changing anything” on a show about the new year, I can’t imagine what it is. WWE has a bad history of thinking that they don’t need to change a thing and that is the case again here. The company has felt stale for a long time now and just messing with things a bit sounds fun. Instead, at least as of now, that isn’t going to happen, because why mix it up when you can just not?

What do you think of the proposed changes? What would you change about WWE’s presentation? Let us know in the comments below.
