Jon Robinson is the author of Creating The Mania: An Inside Look At How WrestleMania Comes To Life, a book which promises to take wrestling fans behind the scenes of WrestleMania 34. The book includes a number of interviews as well as a look at how certain storylines were developed and he's now revealed that two matches planned for the PPV were scrapped due to Superstar injuries.
"There were a lot of matches in play that could have completely changed the card," he explains. "And then you hear from creative about injuries affecting things like Seth Rollins vs. Dean Ambrose, and then Ambrose got injured. They were also trying to do Kurt Angle vs. Jason Jordan, but then Jordan got injured." Both were rumoured beforehand and would have made sense.
After all, it was clear that WWE was teasing dissension between Angle and his "son," while an Ambrose heel turn had been rumoured for months. In the end, Rollins ended up winning the Intercontinental Championship in a Triple Threat match also featuring Finn Balor and The Miz, while Kurt Angle teamed up with Ronda Rousey to take on Triple H and Stephanie McMahon in the best match on the card.
