News on WWE Wanting WrestleMania 36 to Have Strong Main Event

The WrestleMania 36 show goes down on Sunday, April 5, 2020 in Tampa, Florida at the Raymond James Stadium.

Dave Meltzer reported in the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter that Vince McMahon wants to have the strongest WrestleMania main event possible, which is why he booked Drew McIntyre to both eliminate WWE Champion Brock Lesnar and win the Royal Rumble Match. 

The idea behind this decision to book Lesnar vs. McIntyre as strongly as possible over the rumored match between Roman Reigns and Universal Champion Bray Wyatt. 

It will be pushed as the main event unless there’s an outside attraction match. Originally, the idea was to have Reigns win the match with the belief that McIntyre wouldn’t need to win since he knocked out Lesnar, and the Rumble would set up both title matches.

McMahon changed his mind so the company is working to making it as strong as possible.
