10 Original WrestleMania 34 Plans WWE Had To Change

8. The Fabulous Moolah Memorial Battle Royal

During the height of the Attitude Era, WWE might have gobbled up any negative press and used that spotlight (however scathing) to their advantage. That's not the way the McMahon family handles business in 2018. Now, they react to anything negative by shying away from it.

Look at the recent Fabulous Moolah controversy for proof of that.

After proudly announcing the first ever Fabulous Moolah Memorial Battle Royal on the 12 March episode of Raw, WWE hastily renamed the match as the WrestleMania Women's Battle Royal once stories of Moolah's polarising lifestyle made waves online. Suddenly, WWE wanted nothing to do with the woman they had hoped to pay tribute to at 'Mania. Or rather, they didn't want their chief sponsors pulling out.

Allegations of abuse towards women taken under her wing blighted Moolah's reputation in WWE's eyes. Once those stories hit the headlines, it was always likely that things would change. They did, and quickly. Within the week, Moolah's name was taken out of WrestleMania's promotion and WWE acted like nothing had happened.
