WrestleMania 37 was the first event where WWE let fans return to the arena as a live audience. The last time fans attended a PPV was a year ago. Nia Jax wanted to extend her appreciation for the fans attending the event even when the weather was rough.
In a recent tweet, Nia Jax told the fans how much she appreciated them turning up even though the weather wasn’t ideal.
In fact, Night 1 was delayed because of the rain. The fans had to move out of the arena and wait until the rain stopped. However, the fans turning up and cheering for their favorite Superstars while booing the heels was what WWE needed.
