Other critics have pointed out the hypocrisy of certain characters donning brand T-shirts during this Raw vs. SmackDown feud. It’s a strange thing to see guys who march to the beat of their own drum suddenly rah-rahing alongside their teammates simply because of the show where they wrestle.

But even though guys like Bray Wyatt and Roman Reigns at least carried the T-shirt with them, the guy theoretically with the most on the line didn’t bother to wear a T-shirt. SmackDown commissioner Shane McMahon chose to wear his typical custom baseball jersey for the big match. And while it was white with blue writing, it still made him the only member of his team to not have the blue shirt on him at any point.

It’s a small thing, but it’s worth calling Shane out for his team disunity.

He fortunately became a fan in time for WrestleMania III and came back as a fan after a long high school hiatus before WM XIV. Monday nights in the Carlson household are reserved for viewing Raw -- for better or worse.
