Rumor Roundup: Backstage Reaction To Jimmy Uso’s Arrest, Roderick Strong’s Future, More

Here are some of the latest WWE rumors that are floating around.

5) Why WWE Changed Their Set Designs

Andrew Zarian of the Mat Men Podcast recently spoke with a member of the WWE production team. During this, he found out why WWE made the change over to LCD screens for their set designs.

Here is what Zarian Tweeted:

A while ago I asked someone in WWE production why the sets are all LCD screens.

He said this is a by-product of the HD Television for WWE.

These sets take a real beating with the travel and end up looking like crap quickly.

It’s much easier to maintain LCD Panels

My Take:

  • This is an interesting tidbit and makes sense. WWE always seems to do a great job with their set designs and I am really looking forward to what they come up with for the return to live shows.
