WWE Makes Big Edits To WrestleMania 37 On Peacock
Here's what WWE has trimmed from Peacock's WrestleMania 37 upload.
Two of WrestleMania 37's more unfortunate moments have been trimmed from the night one upload on Peacock.
First, WWE has eliminated the entire 35-minute rain delay from the beginning of the show. Rather than running through the myriad improvised backstage promos that aired as WWE attempted to fill time while conditions cleared, viewers now get Vince McMahon's introductory promo, Bebe Rexha's rendition of America the Beautiful, and Bobby Lashley vs. Drew McIntyre. Watching it, you'd have no clue that the show had been put on ice for over half an hour.
Mandy Rose's slip during her ring entrance for the Tag Team Turmoil match has also been cut. This one's interesting, as WWE appeared to be turning it into a storyline on the follow-up episode of Raw, though they have now decided they want it scrubbed from history.
The rain delay and Rose's fall weren't initially edited from the non-Peacock versions of WWE Network outwith the United States, but both have since been removed. For Mandy's entrance, the footage now cuts to Ruby Riott warming up when Rose fell.
At the very least, fair play to the company for saving Mandy's blushes.
