Wrestlemania 42 No Longer In New Orleans

[RammerJammer]

Biggest difference between Vince and TKO/most corps is he wasn’t greedy like that, sometimes to a fault - think of allll the $$$ he missed out on due to his pettiness/stubbornness

He always went out of his way to sabotage SmackDown when they got too hot and I’ll never understand that shyt

How long until WWE moves operations to Vegas because TKO want to consolidate things to cut costs?

Been in the works for a minute last year there was apparently discussions about moving the PC over there

Yeah, I dont feel bad for the indies and conventions. They will shyt on WWE any chance they get, but Mania weekend is how all of them stay afloat, piggybacking off the E for the week.

Really, no one should have booked anything this early. If you running the risk of non refundable 11 months out, gotta get insurance.

It's said that you have to reserve in advance

Not many places in the world can put on a huge event better than Vegas.

Wouldn’t be surprised if TKO decided to move WWE corporate out of Connecticut to Nevada. Just a better overall environment for business in Nevada.

Ultimately the wrestling business is about making money. So why not run it back to Vegas after this year’s all time success at the box office.

We feel so far removed from The Rock beating Cody's ass over the arena. To think that was just a year ago.

I was so confident the product would continue to get hotter and hotter, but the wrinkles are becoming too obvious to ignore.

Selling to Endeavor was Vinces last F U to the fans

It's still wild that outst his own daughter from sheer voting power to just sell it. Like wow....



Burn bridges ? More like that bridge got nuked.

You have a legit gripe. But even if I had the time and money I wasn’t going to NO for mania.

Like NO is going to hold a grudge against them lol. They are now getting two events and still getting mania at a later date. They are glad they can continue to host these big events.

What are yall whining about now? who gives a shyt where mania is especially if you wasn’t going anyway. The only thing that is important is if they put on a good show. The location has zero to do with the booking going into the show that year. Y’all act like NO is this magical place that makes WM better by default. Like Philly is this magical place that made mania better. By yall metrics they should go back to Philly smh.

Do yall really have to complain about everything wwe does whether it’s Vince being out of touch or the rock showing up whenever he wants or TKO trying to make money. As I’ve said before Vince would have ran this company into the ground by now. It would not have grown in popularity because he would have made a lot of us tune out completely.

He was not better in anyway, I think NO is overrated for big events anyway. I think companies only go there because the costs are lower not because it’s a better experience for the fans.

My post has nothing to do with Mania being moved. It’s in relation to TKO making the product feel more like World Wresting Endorsements and the way Trips is booking.

 

[MenacingMonk]

anything and everything negative is HHH and HHH only

I don’t think TKO has a hand in booking and creative. Has it been reported?

 

[Chris Cool]

Wonder if he regrets choosing doofus son in law and idiotic daughter over actual son.

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

so basically because going to places like New Orleans and making huge profits would be dependent on what's going on with creative, they are selling out to casinos in the way they sold out to the Saudis....

Now they don't have to worry as much about creative for Mania season cause the casino tyc00ns will buy up the tickets in hopes that it will bring revenue to them elsewhere

Vince committed a hostile takeover of the board of directors and sold the company to spite his children.

So, fukk vince too.

Who cares it was his company

 

[Rell84shots]

TKO about to fukk around and have the WWE looking like 1994-95. Remember I said the only thing that could beat the WWE is the WWE, and if Tony wanted AEW to regain its early momentum he just needed to be patient.

 

[Sghost597]

Who cares it was his company

Ironically, it was his dad's company.

I legit don’t get why anyone would look at this as a bad thing. Like I’m confused
Vegas is better suited for big events, the city doesn’t make the show creative does
I’d rather do a weekend in Vegas than a weekend in NO
They will still do bum fukk towns like Indianapolis (yes I’m hating)
There is literally nothing bad to take away from this as a fan I don’t know why y’all are making it seem like this is going to hurt the product.
It will make the company more money which means they can pay their people more money
I just think y’all don’t like change or capitalism, it’s called show business for a reason.
