Russo is very confused by the fact that Matt Hardy is entering the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal. He points out that the Hardy/Bray Wyatt feud has gone on for months, and he can’t believe that WWE couldn’t save something for WrestleMania. He gives WWE the benefit of the doubt, noting that maybe Wyatt will return next week and challenge Hardy to a singles match at WrestleMania.
Russo is also shocked that neither Braun Strowman or Elias have a scheduled match for WrestleMania at this point. Hamin points out that WWE is only concerned about Rousey and Stephanie McMahon/Triple H. Russo adds that WWE has invested a lot of time and money in both Strowman and Elias, and it’s a shame that they don’t have a bigger role at WrestleMania.
Russo couldn’t believe that RAW went off the air this week without an appearance from The Undertaker. Hamin notes that maybe WWE will wait until WrestleMania now to have Undertaker come out in surprising fashion. Russo says that’s not a bad idea because having him come out next week (the week before ‘Mania) does little for WWE in his opinion.
