Here’s Why WWE Hasn’t Announced The WrestleMania Match Order

WrestleMania 36 takes place over two nights this weekend, but as of right now, we don’t know which matches are going to take place on each night.

You can sort of assume that Saturday will have either the WWE or Universal Championship match, and then Sunday will have the other. Similarly, one day will have the SmackDown Women’s title match, and the other day will have the Raw match.

Other than that, though, it’s pretty hard to guess, and that’s because WWE apparently doesn’t know yet either.

Speaking on Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer explained that WWE will put the matches in order depending on how the producers and people backstage think the show is going.

“So here’s the situation as of hours ago. So they taped everything and then they’re editing it and putting in special effects and all that and then what they’re gonna do is everything is edited and then they’re gonna time everything and at that point they’re gonna figure out everything on each show I guess to have the shows the most exciting order of matches for two nights that they can do.

“It’s not like they taped a bunch of matches in order. They taped matches and now they’re gonna put them in order. So it’s not like this match is gonna be this night, and this match is gonna be on this night. It’s gonna be based on how they feel based on when everything is done based on the star power and everything like that. That’s how they’re gonna decide the order. The idea is they’re gonna have the best show possible with the footage they have.”

A rough match order will likely be decided ahead of time, but this could change on the night as the matches have all been pre-taped.
