Vince McMahon’s villainous Mr. McMahon character helped set up two of the biggest matches at WWE WrestleMania 35 – Daniel Bryan vs. Kofi Kingston and Ronda Rousey vs. Becky Lynch vs. Charlotte Flair – by holding back Kingston and Lynch in the weeks leading up to the show.

In another story from The New Day’s Feel The Power podcast, Big E disclosed that both he and Xavier Woods were supposed to trash McMahon’s office on an episode of SmackDown after the WWE Chairman referred to Kingston as a “B Plus Player”.

However, WWE’s plans changed and the segment did not take place.

Brodie Lee (fka Luke Harper) left WWE in 2019

Luke Harper said on Talk Is Jericho in 2020 that he reluctantly agreed to play a role as Sami Zayn’s bodyguard around the time that Zayn returned to WWE television after WrestleMania 35.

Harper, now known as Brodie Lee in AEW, wanted to work as a singles competitor after spending several years in a background role behind Bray Wyatt, but he was still willing to give the storyline a try.

When he was informed that plans had changed and he was no longer needed as Zayn’s new ally, the former Wyatt Family member requested his release.
