8 Hidden Meanings Behind WWE WrestleMania 37 Attires - Night 2
After nearly a year of fighting each other, did WrestleMania foreshadow a Rated RKO return?!
WrestleMania 37 was quite the return to form for WWE on Night One, as well it should have been once that terrifying looming thunderstorm cleared.
A weather delay resulted in Samoa Joe and Michael Cole sporting ponchos for their own arrival back in front of crowds, and a lot of wrestlers had to reveal their gear in promos designed to fill time as the company waited for the sun to pierce the crowds rather than in emotional matches in front of their adoring public.
During the show's cold open, this year's 'Show Of Shows' was referred to (amongst other things) as a "course correction", and that could be said for aesthetics. The set was dreessed impeccably, as were several of the Superstars last night and several more here.
Normal isn't here yet, but it's intoxicatingly close. WrestleMania has shown us this. So be like this lot and get your f*cking glad-rags on. If the most boring b*stard on the whole roster can make the most unlikely gear decision on the most illogical night to do it, you can too! And speaking of said boring b*stard...
8. Randy Orton - White Knight (!)
Massively, massively in keeping with the couldn't-give-a-f*ck-about-anybody energy that radiates out of Randy Orton these days that he finally spring for white trunks some 20 years after leaning on boring black.
A colour often suited with the virtuous, Orton made the call for a contest that was first set up when he burned a man alive last December, like all good babyfaces.
There may be slightly more to it (more on that later), but writing assistants need not fear! The material started that colour - it wasn't stained by what he wiped off his hand after he shook yours.
