WrestleMania is still happening this weekend, with a taped show in an empty building spread over tonight and tomorrow. It's another bad call from WWE.
This was supposed to be the biggest week of the year for wrestling. When WWE announced in March 2019 that WrestleMania 36 would be happening in Tampa this upcoming weekend, they couldn’t have expected that the entire country would be shut down by the time the date arrived due to a pandemic.
WrestleMania isn’t a wrestling show at this point. What started as the culmination of a year’s worth of wrestling storylines with the spectacular presentation of a SuperBowl has become solely about the spectacle itself. The matches are just a backdrop for lights, fireworks, intricate sets, the loving shots of a massive audience, and WWE’s endless self-congratulation.
Still, though: whatever happens this weekend won’t feel like a WrestleMania. Nothing about it will live up to the legacy, both good and bad, that WWE’s major show has built up since 1985. No matter how well the matches are worked, or stories are told, or whatever surprises might happen , it won’t hold the power and thrill of a WrestleMania.
