That’s a hard punishment. WrestleMania is coming up in less than a day and that is the kind of thing that should give you a great feeling. Whether you like where things are going with WWE or not, there is no denying the fact that the show is something special, even if the details of this year’s edition is not going to be quite the same. However, for some people involved, there is a big threat hanging over them.
This year’s WrestleMania is one of the most unique shows in the history of wrestling. If nothing else, having the show taped goes against all of the ideas that WWE has followed for years. It’s all they have at the moment though and that’s what we are having to deal with at the moment. That also leads to the possibility of results leaking out and it turns out that WWE is not too keen on that option.
According to Sports Illustrated, WWE will fire anyone who leaks results about the WrestleMania tapings from last week. There were only a handful of people present at every taping sessions, including Vince McMahon himself, Paul Heyman, Bruce Prichard and Kevin Dunn, along with a variety of agents. So far, almost no results have come out of the tapings with no match results having been leaked.
It’s going to be a huge show. Check out what is being protected at the moment:
Opinion: This is the kind of thing that you have to do because WWE could not handle the results getting out in advance. We’re talking about WrestleMania instead of something like Main Event or 205 Live. With so little time left before WrestleMania goes on the air, WWE has done a good job of keeping the whole thing under wraps. That might be due to a bunch of threats, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad idea.
