I don’t get why they couldn’t still hold it in the stadium without anyone? At least it could’ve had the set up and everything

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. This is the only way WrestleMania is saved for me. I’m just waiting for Florida to issue a lockdown. The fact that WWE isn’t doing the battle royals just shows us that they understand the severity of this situation, yet they're still going through with WrestleMania. It makes no sense.

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 OH MY GOSH YES! I want to see him start out wearing sneakers. Then change into another, different pair of sneakers. Come on, MAKE THIS HAPPEN.

No battle royal at wrestlemania for obvious reasons

Did you guys hear rumors they might pre-tape WrestleMania?
Understandably so, but this whole thing is a load of s***.
I am not complaining at all, but I just feel bad for everyone involved in such a bad situation at this point.
A two night, pre-taped WrestleMania in front of no fans hosted by an NFL star. I can't think of a more-uninteresting show. Especially since seeing how horrible RAW and SmackDown were without an audience in the PC, I have zero hope for this WrestleMania.

What does it matter if its pre taped? There wont be fans in attendance to release spoilers.

To me, there is an undeniable difference in taped versus live, even if spoilers aren't out. You lose the magic of live television and anything can happen. Even if the entire event goes on perfectly with awesome matches, it just doesn't feel right to say "I am watching a pre-taped WrestleMania". Up to this point, what are two more polar opposites: pre-taped wrestling and the biggest pro wrestling event of the year.

I don’t get why they couldn’t still hold it in the stadium without anyone? At least it could’ve had the set up and everything Probably cost. They're already losing money by not being able to have fans there. Between the construction of the set, and all the crew they'd need, even if it was empty in the stadium, that's just flushing more money down the toilet. I was seeing something earlier in the week, about the estimated money they're going to loose: $15 million from ticket sales, $4 million from the shows the week of (Raw, Smackdown, NXT and The Hall of Fame), and $3 million in merchandise sale. At this point with them making the movie to have it still go on, I think it's trying to lessen anymore looses as much as possible.

Any other time and this wouldn’t have been SUCH a blow. Very bad timing for the wrestling community in general. I hate to say it but WWE going forward pre-tape or not, has killed my interest. No massive set, raw emotion from the crowd, all the special entrances gone. Just kills it. Should have postponed it. Postponing has nothing to do with insurance collection, it has to do with pride.

There'd be no difference.

Lots of spoiled brats here. Can't we just be happy we are getting wrestlemania? Surely, you can at least understand why they’re upset about it, right? Personally, I’ve pretty much given up at this point, and have just accepted how this years Mania is going to take place. My fears now are that they’re going to ruin the show by not following what AEW did on Dynamite this past Wednesday. They had a few wrestlers, and backstage personnel in the audience area to make up for the lack of a crowd, and they were pretty much able to be themselves, and sound less scripted, adding to the overall atmosphere. Also good commentary, from good commentators. I fear WWE will instead pipe in fake crowd noise, (and like the past Smackdown, and Raw) will have zero wrestlers, and backstage personnel to make up the crowd (therefore, dead silence throughout the entire shows), and will probably have crappy commentary teams, with bad commentary. People want a good show, and a good Wrestlemania. Nothing wrong with that.

Wrestlemania was going to be bad whether they did it in front of 70000 people or 0, but at least it's happening. There will be no nba, nhl, or mlb for the foreseeable future so getting something is better than nothing.

I know this isn't something they had any control over. But has there ever been (other than maybe when they were supposedly in danger of going under during the White hot WCW days...which I still have my doubts that they were in danger of going under) has there ever been a worse period for the WWE than the last several months? I mean, has it ever been this bad? Is there going to be a wakeup call that Vince finally adheres?

The only wake-up call WWE could receive will be if there comes a time Vince gets called to meet his maker and gets his a** booted to the fiery depths.

It's so easy to crap on the wwe these days and that stuff with that Gronk dude is legit some of the worst TV I have seen. However, I do appreciate how hard everyone at the WWE is working to give us fans some new content to watch each week.
It's not the best, but I really do not see what else they could do
