Welcome to the Grapevine! This section of Smark Henry is where we round up all the important founded and unfounded rumors floating around the pro wrestling scene that you may have missed over the past few days. Remember to take everything with a grain of salt!
WWE has booked Logan Paul for WrestleMania
YouTube star Logan Paul's appearance on this Friday's SmackDown is reportedly leading to an appearance at WrestleMania. It is part of WWE's current strategy to become more mainstream as their content becomes available on the Peacock streaming service. This makes for two celebrities slated to appear at WrestleMania, with Bad Bunny going up against the Miz on Saturday and Logan Paul appearing on Sunday. (Source: Ringside News)
We say: Probably can't expect Logan's participation to be as good as Bad Bunny's, but if it works, it works.
WWE moving ThunderDome to Yuengling Center, still no fans present
WWE will be moving the ThunderDome to the Yuengling Center in the University of South Florida in Tampa on April 12 for around four months. There will be no fans allowed to attend despite having fans at the Raymond James Stadium for WrestleMania. (Source: WrestlingNews.co)
We say: Not having fans is still for the better, especially with all the COVID outbreaks WWE has been experiencing over the past few months.
