That is the assumption I was working under. Haha I thought the op meant "won" as in "win" <---- n00b Haha that's what I thought when I saw it in the thread about Cabana/Hero/Castagnoli! Then I saw it in here and I was like, 'hm!'

I just hope it doesn't have the financial issues that the NASCAR Hall of Fame is having in Charlotte.

Are they going to completely ignore memorabilia from '98-'02 with the WWF scratch logo?

If it's Orlando, watch TNA put up a "Wrestling Matter's" billboard infront of it.
Just to flush more money down the drain.

If I were in charge, and I could pick any place in the world to put it? New York. It's where they started and is pretty much still home to them. Even better if they can get it close to Madison Square Garden. They should like, build a theme restaurant there

Doesn't matter who ultimately foots the bill, the place won't last three years. There's simply not enough interest in a physical wrestling HOF to sustain it as a long-term business. The mainstream public won't care, and wrestling fans who just happen to be in the area will visit it once.
And as for the suggestion of building it in Universal.....the chances of Vince allowing that to happen as long as TNA is taping impact there is exactly zero. There's no way in hell he's going to essentially draw his own fans into Universal to visit his HOF just so they can leave the building, walk a few feet, and watch TNA. It's just not going to happen.
The best I could see is dedicating a couple of floors of WWE's corporate office, or building a separate building on corporate property. Anything else is just basically throwing money down the drain -- there's just not enough of a demand for it to be a viable, long term investment.

New York would be more appropriate.

Maybe set something up there and do a touring museum show like the Harry Potter one.

For some reason my initial thought was that they were making a Hall of Fame for biggest muscles/best bodies. Lol, "this year's big name induction...GOOOOLLLLLDDDDBERRRRRRRG'S traps."

They are on good terms with Universal, put it there. No charge to get in, well park admission, and set up a huge merchandise area. Yeah, so TNA is there, but it hasn't stopped them in the past from doing things there. What's the WSF Hall of Achievement doing in the Impact Zone? WEDF[/Adamle]

Seems like to save time/money, they could just build it on to their home office.
