Why Pirate Ship Jump Didn't Happen At WrestleMania (Patreon)

Many expected Kevin Owens to make a huge leap from the pirate ship set at WrestleMania this year after he'd declared his desire to do so. Talent and backstage speculation after WrestleMania was that weather may have prevented that from happening. As it turns out, that wasn't the case. There was discussions between talent and creative throughout the week, but the match not being no-DQ proved a big hurdle. The ship on the set was also a lot larger than many expected, but the weather as the final nail in the coffin. The spot was never planned in the final stages of the match that ended up going on as presented.

There's always next year, and with Shane McMahon, Kevin Owens and Michael Hayes around to pitch ideas, I'm pretty sure we wont have a shortage of people jumping off things
