WWE to pre-record AJ Styles vs Undertaker

As reported earlier by PWInsider, WWE will pre-record WrestleMania 36 matches on Wednesday and Thursday this week so that WWE superstars don’t have to work overtime. It is believed that AJ Styles vs Undertaker could be recorded on Thursday itself. Because this year’s WrestleMania is being kept behind the doors due to coronavirus outbreak, no one outside WWE would be able to notice the difference when WWE broadcasts the pre-recorded match on 4th or 5th April 2020.
