Only if Limp Bizkit are invited again................... Are they still "WWE's favorite band in the whole world"? I doubt it, since Fred Durst was kicked out of the Staples Center last year for flipping off the camera at Summerslam.

I thinnk it would be interesting to see but what stadiums would work. I do think Citifield would work but I am not sure of any others I'd bet on Fenway and Wrigley. I think there'd be great visuals. I think The Iron Pigs stadium in Allentown Pa (Samoan country). They always draw well in Bethlehem, right next door.

Dunno about Raw, but I'm foaming at the mouth (metaphorically) to have a major WWE PPV (preferably a Wrestlemania) at Busch Stadium. They could easily get a record setting 50,000+ with the floor seats. I live in St. Louis, and we are never getting an outdoor Wrestlemania. Our weather is too unpredictable.

Miller Park in Milwaukee. Retractable roof, close proximity to Chicago. Not too big but not too small.

WCW held nitro from the Astrodome a few times. One is the goofy Sid getting hit in a car with a monster truck.
In all honesty, they only way I think it would work is if you followed what an earlier poster mentioned about offering discounted tickets to those who attend WM the previous night.
The Raw at the Georgiadome attendance goes like this:
October 11th, 1999: 33,375 February 21st, 2000: 27, 464 July 31, 2000: over 25,000 February 5th, 2001: 24,639
Those are great numbers, but it was also during one of the WWF's hottest periods. They would probably have to heavily paper the event.

Weather aside, I think Busch would be a more feasible option for a major WWE card because for one thing, it's a far more up-to-date venue than the EJ Dome (which when compared to a lot of other NFL domes, kinda looks like a giant warehouse on TV). That, and Vince wouldn't have to deal with Stan Kroenke, the Rams owner (remember EnisGate?)

I think Busch would be a great place for a PPV, it's just that the end of March/beginning of April is known for unpredictable weather, so that is why I say no outdoor WM.

They are not the biggest cities/metros that have not had one yet.

A WWE show at Minute Maid Park sure would be interesting, although the Toyota Center, the AstroDome, and Reliant Stadium (for WM) are all better options in the same city.

Oh, and I still want a WWE PPV at Miller Park with someone doing a move off of Bernie's slide.
