Who Made The Decision To Remove The Clock From The Big Screen During The Iron Man Match
When the fans started counting down with the Iron Man clock at Extreme Rules, the decision was made to remove the clock from the big screen inside of the arena. This was obviously done in order to discourage fans from counting down during the match between Seth Rollins and Dolph Ziggler. It turned out that this just caused fans inside of the arena to count down louder and at random.
The latest Wrestling Observer Newsletter says that it was Kevin Dunn who made the decision to remove the clock from the big screen during Extreme Rules.
Here is a rumor on what the Women’s Tag Team Titles will end up looking like.
Unless WWE suddenly stops caring about marijuana, Matt Riddle will never pass a drug test.
He’ll be AMAZING in NXT if he’s signed though, can’t wait.
