#4 Greater focus on wrestling with fewer bells and whistles
WrestleMania has become such a spectacle, that every year WWE tries to pack the show with more and more entertainment - musical acts, celebrity appearances, guest hosts and the like. It's a big part of why the event is constantly strapped for time and has gotten longer every year.
Having a special musical act or two is fine, and would be no different than the NFL Super Bowl, but some years have felt like the wrestling was taking a back seat to the rest of the pomp and circumstance.
This year, that will not be the case. While WrestleMania 36 will have a special guest host in former NFL star Rob Gronkowski, a number of other celebrity appearances have been cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Other extra curricular plans are being scrapped as well. So with a lack of music acts, special entrances and guest appearances there's really only one thing they can focus on - the wrestling.
My hope is that the WWE Superstars just ball out in these matches at WrestleMania 36 and show those in charge backstage that the extra flash and flare isn't needed. WWE is first and foremost a wrestling company and maybe this year's show is exactly what they need to remind them of that.
