Original: The feud between Vince McMahon and God was briefly reborn today, as severe weather hit Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, forcing fans at Wrestlemania to seek shelter. The venue issued weather alerts noting that parking lots were temporarily closed due to the weather, and fans were advised to stay in their vehicles. The lightning eventually passed, and the venue opened up the gates and parking lots again. Fans are now able to go to their seats again. You can see the updates, as well as some fan reactions, below.

Should the show start with such, this would easily be the worst #WrestleMania weather ever. Performing will be difficult. #WWE pic.twitter.com/FnioqRFclU
