-- Last night's WWE Monday Night Raw in North Little Rock, Arkansas had a bit of a different look to it and according to a report by pwinsider.com, there's a good reason for that - restrictions that the company was facing at the Simmons Bank Arena.
-- The report notes that the 25-year old building was not structured in a way that could support WWE's current lighting rigs, which always hang from the ceiling of arenas. This was due to the accumulation of snow sitting on top of the arena which added to the concern of whether the structure would be able the support everything. Instead, WWE was forced to use a lighting truss that was supported by towers that stood from the ground up. Similarly, WWE used a smaller staging setup instead of their usual, larger set while also adjusting their usage of pyro.
-- For those wondering whether this is going to be WWE's norm moving forward, rest assured, this appears to only be temporary and not a case of the company cutting back on production elements, especially with the recent changes at the top, but something they had to roll with due to the bad weather in the city.
