Having worked in both television and wrestling production for years, when WrestleMania season rolls along I’m always fascinated by the entire aspect of trying to time and produce such a massive show. Just for fun, I would type up a basic run-sheet for my like-minded friends to enjoy. Like clockwork, as Mania day grew closer every year, I would frequently be asked if I was going to do one. In recent years, I began sharing this thought process with some of the notable wrestling websites; in order to possibly give fans a different way of viewing such an event.

WWE reportedly considered holding the WrestleMania Women’s Battle Royal this year.
As noted, WWE announced last night that a Tag Team Turmoil Match will take place during Night One of WrestleMania 37 with the winners going on to Night Two to challenge WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler.
In an update, @Wrestlevotes reports that one idea discussed before the Tag Team Turmoil match was decided on was to hold the annual WrestleMania Women’s Battle Royal, and then have the final two competitors be named “winners” to form a tag team on Night Two. This new tag team would have then challenged Baszler and Jax for the titles.
April 6 (UPI) Drew McIntyre, WWE Champion Bobby Lashley, The Miz, Bad Bunny and more set the stage for WrestleMania 37 one final time on Raw before the big extravaganza takes place on Saturday and Sunday.
McIntyre kicked off the show on Monday and discussed what separates him from Lashley before he faces the All Mighty for the WWE Championship during night one of WrestleMania 37 on Saturday, starting at 8 p.m. EST on Peacock.

The Scottish Warrior said despite their similar journeys, he is willing to sacrifice more than Lashley and mentioned how he left home to become a WWE star and didn t return to keep pursuing his dream, even while his mother was going through chemotherapy.
Ahead of the Raw Tag Team title match at WrestleMania 37, Xavier Woods and AJ Styles are set to face off in singles action.
WWE has announced that Woods vs. Styles will take place on tonight s WrestleMania 37 go-home episode of Raw. The New Day (Woods & Kofi Kingston) are defending their Raw Tag Team titles against Styles & Omos at WrestleMania 37 night one this Saturday.
Woods vs. Styles is a rematch from last week s episode of Raw. Woods defeated Styles by disqualification in that match after Omos got involved. After the match, Omos laid out both Kingston and Woods. Omos then put his foot on Woods as Styles counted to three.
