As WWE gears up for the grand spectacle of WrestleMania 41 (Night Two), noticeable changes in backstage procedures have been detected. According to Fightful Select, the wrestling giant is exercising more secrecy over the sequence of matches and allocation of producers than ever before. Despite WrestleMania weekends being famed for their confidentiality, this year the covert secrecy seems to have been intensified. Personnel and crew have reported receiving minimal details, with some information being shared only on an as-needed basis.
Randy Orton’s match for Sunday evening is also causing some stir. It’s been rumored that former WWE superstar Rusev, now known as Miro in AEW, could be making an unexpected comeback to face Orton. However, this rumor was quickly debunked by a reliable source, who asserted not to anticipate Rusev’s involvement – notwithstanding the “Rusev Day!” chants that sporadically erupted during the pre-show, a fact that was mildly granted recognition by the panel.
Also in the spotlight is Bayley’s status following her recent victory in the Women’s Championship. Answering inquiries, Bayley has discreetly renewed her contract with WWE either towards the end of 2023 or the beginning of 2024. The wrestling entity has not put out an official statement yet, but multiple informants verify that Bayley’s new contract is sealed, securing her position with WWE for the foreseeable future.
