Other “multiple locations”, in addition to the Performance Center on Saturday, April 4th. Any ideas on realistic locations they would, or could use for part 2 on Sunday, April 5th? I’m not too familiar with the Orlando FL area. Hope the stage layouts are good!

AEW did tonight what I suggested after the initial PC Smackdown, and they made the endless empty rows of seats seem far less noticeable. Just having some talent as spectators, along with exciting action, an engaged commentary team, and strategic camera orientation, was all the difference in the world.
Unfortunately, I don't really see Vince allowing this. Trips in his son-in-law gig aside, everyone else would be suspect of getting themselves over, and the 'E would require a whole lotta earpieces for Vince to keep things in check.

CovidMania is running wild!!! Unfortunately. We need a vaccine to hurry up, and layeth the smacketh down, on it’s roody-poo, candy a$$ 💪
I agree!
Even if it means Roman Reigns wins the Universal Title and holds it for a year, I would be okay with that as long as Covid-19 was gone forever!

Since NXT Takeover is canceled, think we’ll still have some NXT matches on the card? Really worried for them.

Does anyone else want to see them do some wild, off the wall stuff with this?
I mean, if they ARE going to film it over multiple locations on multiple days, can't they muck around with it?
I have a burning desire to see John Cena get beat up by some puppets, is all I'm saying. But that might just be me...

We start with John Cena doing a parody of the Firefly Funhouse, very Mr. Rogers. Have his own puppets. They have green screen at the PC, do a fight in some weird "locations", have Cena's puppets fight Bray's puppets. Make it madhouse crazy!

Well, as many others I am disappointed on missing to go to Wrestlemania and enjoy the crowd, the atmosphere and all the events around. Wrestlemania is not so much about the wrestling to me, as it is to the show and atmosphere. Well, with Corona it looks like we are up to something new. And I was thinking....as odd as this show may sound at this point from the PC or without all these fans, may be this is a chance for WWE to pull up something big, make Wrestlemania big despite all the challenges they are facing like everyone else. Make Wrestlemania about Wrestling again. May be it's just the start to the 2-day Wrestlemanias, a start to something new, something exciting, that could regain fans. But why not use this strange situation and surprise fans by something unexpected, something new, something that will attract people again. What do you think? I am actually looking forward to Wrestlemania despite the situation, despite seeing part time champions like Goldberg or Lesnar.....

wrestlemania was never really about wrestling. it was always about being the pinnacle of sports entertainment. hence your Mr Ts, Mayweather, Akebono, Pete Rose etc....

I agree. If the producers can create magic, and if the wrestlers can sell those stories in the ring, this Wrestlemania could be a huge success. But everyone needs to have the match of their lives. And everyone needs to want to. If they're committed to making this the best Wrestlemania ever, they can do it. I think the focus has to be on great wrestling for that to happen. I'm worried about Gronk hosting. That's corny garbage that will hurt the show imo. Back to basics. Great wrestling. Cut the rest of the junk and show the world they're the greatest wrestling company in the world.

Isn't the job of the host to hype the crowd up? I honestly thought it was a joke and refused to believe it for a good 5/10 minutes until I was shown his tweet.

Will he change his clothes in the middle of the show like Mr Rogers did? Take off his suit and change into his Fruity Pebbles shirt and matching hat

Cena go full facepaint/mask, ragged clothes, and try to murder Rambling Rabbit. He would likely fight off the impulse, only to be ambushed by Fiend.

I think the only way wrestlemania “weekend” will succeed is much like what everybody is saying on the board: the team has to be super creative and innovative- and come up with creative ways to fill in the blank which is the loss of a live audience. Many of my family works in the film industry as does my father in law. This is something that will definitely fall on the producers’ hands. They will steer the show heavily more then ever before come WM.

Any plans for the Men's and Women's Battle Royals at Mania have officially been scratched, considering the push to limit crowds.

i really hope something changes in the next week or so where we just ban events/gatherings altogether and keep everyone home. no travel, nothing.....this will literally force Vince to postpone the show until we are clear of this thing.
i just dont want to watch a wrestlemania with no audience, split into multiple days, etc. its not going to be enjoyable.

I think a two night 3-4 hour a each night WM sounds pretty cool.
But they may want to consider moving it up a week or so. The sooner the better.
I do expect them to give us all the bells and whistles possible.
As for the Battle Royals, sure it sucks for the talent (personally and financially), but better safe than sorry.
