happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas. But in reality, it can be difficult, if not
impossible, to keep a secret about events in the entertainment capital of the
world. WWE is one of those organisations that has used its in-ring characters
to tell compelling stories, and WrestleMania, the grandest stage of all, is
always an inflexion point where such storytelling is amplified. One thing I
have learnt so far in life is that learning isn’t just a function of
intelligence; it’s more of interest. For example, as much as I love sports, I
have no idea how the game of cricket is being played, yet I understand why fans
would go crazy whenever the West Indies is on. The same logic applies to the
WWE. If you’re not interested in the multi-layered storytelling, it might just
appear to you as some slugfest where wrestlers throw hands.
