We need an official run down of names not on the card and updates on who didn't compete. Make things way easier, because it sounds like quite a few people didn't and a lot could change due to that

Given the current potential list of wrestlers that could be off this show, I need to ask... How do they even have a means to make this a sustainable Mania? Let alone a two night Mania?? This is kind of getting ridiculous. It's becoming hard to fathom what this could even look like... Braun swapped in for Roman, NXT wrestler for Andrade, drop women’s tag, and the SD Tag becomes a singles match. It’s reported that the women’s tag match happened. So far, Roman/Goldberg was dropped and the SD and Raw men’s tag matches got changed.

Hopefully the SmackDown tag match was dropped entirely. Every one of them was in close proximity to Miz, none of them should be on the show.

Since there's now a spoiler marking on the topic title, I will point out who I heard Andrade's replacement is. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Austin Theory. This is quite the name that I didn't expect on the Mania card, even in a pandemic.

Honestly can't wait for the kayfabe explanations as to why all these guys aren't working the show. Especially given they won't/can't make direct reference to COVID-19.

That works, I also know there are several reported but not confirmed and Cesaro and Asuka are competing

Man, I miss when we were all worried about Cena's appearance being wasted on a match with Elias.

Seriously at the rate they're going, they could bring it back to one night and make it the same length as a regular PPV.

One thing I thought about. They have the potential to make whatever next event a larger event due to these match changes. Whether that'll be MITB, whether that'll be the July ppv, who knows but that instantly makes the next real ppv a larger deal since WM's been chopped down.

Assuming we do a four month lockdown like China did, that brings us to SummerSlam. How about we make SummerSlam two nights as well and have a MITB match main-event night 1 since we will likely skip that and then have both title matches on night 2 be Extreme Rules matches since we will miss that too.

In terms of working out which matches went ahead without issues, WWEShop just put up six WM 36 match shirts:
Charlotte/Rhea Becky/Shayna Orton/Edge Cena/Wyatt AJ/Undertaker Brock/Drew
If Braun/Goldberg winds up being what happens, I assume that one will be up later.

Alexa Bliss: "I asked for this time to explain something to everybody. Recently Nikki and I were debating what was better between Frozen and Tangled, we were able to stop debating, but there were others that weren't so lucky. It calmed down for a moment, and somebody suggested we should play Monopoly. Well, anybody who's played that game knows the rest of the story. Some people won't be here."

So, the plan I've heard for the Smackdown Tag Team title match is the following.... {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Allegedly, Morrison worked a singles Ladder Match with an Uso. That's it. It was unconfirmed how the titles played into this, or why New Day was not represented at all.
