1) Scrapped Plans For Vince McMahon
Kevin Owens was recently interviewed by Inside The Ropes. During this, Owens revealed that there were originally some plans for Vince McMahon to wrestle at Wrestlemania 34.
Owens says that it would have been a tag team match: Owens and Sami Zayn vs Vince and Shane McMahon:
“Yeah, that was really cool. I wish it would have led to more, honestly. But who wouldn’t feel that way? I think it could have, and I think it almost did. I really think, at one point, there was a chance that it was going to be me and Sami Zayn against Shane and Vince at WrestleMania – which would have been incredible – but Vince, I remember one of the things he had told me was, ‘I can’t run WrestleMania and focus on a match at the same time.’
Owens also added the following about why it didn’t happen:
“He felt like his best position was to not be in the ring, you know? But then also it was also the perfect situation for Bryan’s return. He got cleared medically and the storyline was already in progress. He was already so heavily involved in the storyline just because him and Shane were running SmackDown together, and obviously that was an incredible thing to be a part of Daniel’s return, especially in that building where he won the title at WrestleMania XXX, so it was great.”
My Take:
- Vince in that match would have been amazing. It is too bad that it didn’t happen. Vince is crazy though for even suggesting it at his age.
