#4 Wanted minimum physical contact in the feud

It would be hard to keep the two apart

One of the biggest things we've noticed in this build to WrestleMania after the shift to the WWE Performance Center was that there was a notable lack of physical contact outside of matches.

It's no secret that WWE has taken the social distancing protocol seriously, going as far as to hold their WrestleMania tapings in two different venues with different crews. While it's normal to see brawls among competitors heading into WrestleMania 36, more so with the top feud of the brand, that didn't happen at all this year.

McIntyre was largely absent from the Performance Center shows, which seemed to coincide with WWE taking their foot off the gas in terms of building the biggest card possible for the year. They can't be blamed for that, though it's a bit off that they would avoid it to such an extent when the Superstars have to make physical contact in their match at WrestleMania.

One thing is for sure - this is going to be talked about a lot once it's all said and done.
