If the previous updates were to go by then, Shane McMahon was scheduled to be a part of this year’s Wrestlemania.
But, according to WWE news given on yesterday night, the situation has drastically changed. Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn had a stretched rivalry against him to culminate a match. We have seen an attack on the commissioner of Smackdown, two weeks ago to ensure that the match remains intact.
To add to the storyline angle, Daniel Bryan came back to Smackdown Live, last week to officially address the actions taken by the heel superstars.
Being a fair general manager of the show, the actions were taken against Owens and Zayn. It was the rightmost decision to fire both of them from the blue brand. In return, the GM had to suffer another vicious assault from the fired superstars.
The intentions of the WWE officials were clear that are trying to set up a tag team match for Wrestlemania. The two authority figures of the Smackdown Live brand would take on the team of Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn.
This would also mark the comeback match for Daniel Bryan, too. But, the situations might have changed, as per yesterday evening’s updates on WWE.com. Shane-O-Mac is still under observation and yet to recover fully from the concussed state.

As per the official website of the company, Shane McMahon is suffering from “acute diverticulitis and an umbilical hernia.” As per his earlier comments, he went to spend quality times with his family but had to return to the USA after getting into more trouble with the injury. Check out the official updates, here,
“Following the vicious assault, McMahon went to the Caribbean with his family to rest and recuperate. While there, Shane developed a massive infection due to acute diverticulitis and was hospitalized for several days in Antigua before being flown back to a New York-area hospital, where he is currently being treated with heavy doses of antibiotics.”
It was also clarified in the article that to get rid of the problems, he had to undergo surgery, once his viral infections get healed. So, this would be a long-time process of recovery and does not allow him to get cleared for Wrestlemania.
The Wrestling Observer Newsletter also stated the injury picked up by Shane McMahon is not kayfabe. It’s a legit hurting situation which might force the WWE officials to change the Wrestlemania match card. More updates should be available on this when Smackdown comes on air, tonight.
