I hope this is the correct thead, I’m not sure where would be best to ask this. But I heard instead of rename to WWE New York they renamed it to The World to appeal to a broader demographic. I was wondering, did the place stop selling merch at this point, or was that just the nightclub section re-branded?

I think it’s the Hard Rock Cafe now. Food sucks there, as most chain restaurants do. There’s only 2 chains that I order food at.

Who here remembers the WCW Nitro Grill at The Excalibur in Las Vegas?

It's somewhere I wanted to visit as a kid. I imagined it being a wrestling fans paradise.

I bought a bunch of T-shirts from their closing sale (HHH, Mysterio, Smackdown, The Rock, etc) but I dont have any of those shirts no more.

Ever notice that a lot of wrestling theme restaurants usually fail? Hulk Hogan's Pastamania. His Beach place seems to be doing well. WWF Planned to open up a Hotel in Las Vegas, never came to fruition. Bam Bam Bigelow had owned a restaurant in Lake Ariel, PA that wasn't around long. I forget the name of it. Anyone know the name? Mean Gene had a line of Burgers. There is that steakhouse in Japan that gives out those Satin Jackets that does extremely well. Jerry Lawler had Slamburgers

I’ve seen the jackets for big money but don’t know what the link to wrestling is

I’ve seen the jackets for big money but don’t know what the link to wrestling is The Ribera Steakhouse. It's kind of like a rite of passage for any American wrestler who tours Japan for the first time. It's been around for years. You can google it for more info.

Jerry Lawler had Slamburgers Not only wrestler owned/gimmick restaurants. I listened to a Jon Taffer interview and he went on like a 10min. rant about how many people survive in the restaurant business. Less than 5% of celebrities were successful running a restaurant/fast food..... Hell even “Michelin Star” chefs have had there doors closed. The restaurant business is brutal and painfully expensive to invest in.

I went to the World in 2002. Had a great time.
Went to Ribera on my Japan trip in January. If anyone gets there, try the corn soup. Jackets are only given out to wrestlers. You can't purchase them.
