#1 Not concluding enough storylines

This was one of the two exceptions
This was one of the two exceptions

WrestleMania is supposed to be the Grandest Stage of Them All and by default, is the PPV where a lot of rivalries conclude. Given the stage and the WrestleMania brand name, it only makes sense to have the payoffs over there.

However, given the circumstances, WrestleMania became a much smaller show in 2020 - although it has proven to be the most unique one in its 36-year history. One of the big problems with the previously-mentioned dusty finishes is that there was no real conclusion to the big storylines.

The only two matches that felt like the culmination of their respective rivalries was The Undertaker vs AJ Styles and Kevin Owens vs Seth Rollins. In all the other matches, it's easy to see the defeated Superstars getting a rematch in the future.

Despite WWE taking their foot off the gas, they should have gone forward and concluded more storylines. If the same repeats for night 2, then we can see SummerSlam being booked as the biggest show of the year.
