Vince McMahon may not be backstage at the weekly WWE TV shows but it looks like he has some influence over the WrestleMania card.
WrestleVotes reports that the idea for Brock Lesnar vs. Omos at WrestleMania came from Vince McMahon. The WreslteVotes Twitter account, which has broken several big stories in the past, sent out the following tweet today:
“I’m told the highly anticipated, very compelling () Brock Lesnar vs Omos WrestleMania matchup was the idea of one specific, powerful person who pushed it through.”
There have been several changes to the WrestleMania card in recent weeks and as Dave Meltzer reported on Wrestling Observer Radio, Lesnar’s WrestleMania plans were changed sometime within the last week or two. As Fightful Select reported, there are people in the company that believe that McMahon is running creative. WWE sources have denied this but it is worth noting that Triple H has stated publicly that he is taking ideas pitched to him by others in the company and he is still listening to his father-in-law.
WrestlingNewsPremium.com (our Patreon) noted last week that people in the company pointed to the Lesnar vs. Omos match as a sign that McMahon has been getting more involved with creative.
