lmao okay
I'm imagining a scenario where somehow Roman Reigns gets buried for not working WM and waiting so late to tell them.

Vince sold a bunch more stock in the last week to cover financial losses for his companies during the shutdown

Hes down to only having 70% of the voting power now

Keep it up Vince!

This seems like a weird angle to attack WWE on. Pretty sure anyone, not just Roman, could request not to work and WWE would be okay with it. Same is probably going on with AEW.
Because the guy had a higher chance of fucking DEATH if he gets sick. More than anybody else on the roster. It should have been them to immediately say "Stay inside in safety Roman don't even worry about it" but instead Roman had to, likely despite pressure they leveled at him about the big deal his match is, request it himself.

He shouldn't have had to ask not to stay in the match.

Dana White making a bid to be crazier than Vince

Whether youre a coronavirus expert or not, its like hiding from cancer, said White in what one of the worst possible analogies. You cant hide from this thing. You cant hide. If you are a high-risk person, this things going to get you. Whats going to happen next flu season? This things going to disappear? No, its going to come back, just like the flu. And if its whats going to get you, its gonna get you. So Ive had a great run. If the coronavirus is whats going to get me, lets do it. Bring it. Im ready corona, come get me.

Or that he wanted to work until he realized it was getting worse and decided his best bet was to not continue performing at the Performance Center.

Roman is a big enough star in the company with enough pull that he likely feels zero pressure to do anything nowadays.

That really sucks for Roman. His compromised immune system means he'll likely always be at risk for something depending on how contagious it might be.

Hope he stays safe and healthy.

So the smoke on the street is that everyone hates doing WM like this except Vince who demanded it

And more people than we know of yet refused to do it, because they didnt feel that level of loyalty to Vince to die in the trenches with him after he flew off and left them in Saudi Arabia last year

Just some scuttlebutt

Edge, Miz, Morrison, and the Usos are out of Mania too.

From what I understand the only thing worth a damn in the build up was the Orton vs. Edge match, which is now shot to hell. And Vince was forcing Mania to wrap up storylines and get it over with and now the only storyline he'll end up committing to is the weird one with Styles and Taker and then like Otis and Ziggler.

RIP Mania

Oh, and then for TheRock, Goldberg was trying to voluntarily back out of working Wrestlemania but they convinced him to stay in and do a match.

But there was definitely no pressure for Roman to keep working during the Coronavirus epidemic at all.

I've been in support of this the whole time. Imagine McIntyre beating Lesnar in the middle of the ring... and having no crowd to celebrate with.

They could easily scrap Hell in a Cell or Clash of Champions instead.

Also I'm pretty sure Goldberg isn't under contract so their "convincing" was probably offering more money.

This could potentially be "Dark Side of the RIng" territory if it continues to get worse or one of the wrestlers die from WM36 going forward.
