Stage designs.

[thesunbeast]

As an artist, I'm probably one of the rare people that even pay attention to this, but I'm not as sick of the WWE product today as alot of other people are, but I am sick of the same old look. the same stage for raw over 10 years. Why does it always have to be a ramp, every PPV. The same black ropes every Wrestlemania or joint PPV is anoying me. Why do they even have to have a metal ramp anymore? Alot of their PPV stages are nothing more than just a bunch of TV's with computer designs on them. The concept of a metal ramp with a giant titantron on it started in the attitude era, They just use different variations of it, even 10 years later. I'm ready for a complete overhaul of the WWE look wize. The Royal Rumble 2006 was a step in the right direction for me. Tell some creative Idea's you would have, or just talk about some of the past PPV looks that you thought were great.

These are mine:

-King of the ring 1996
-Any PPV they have at MSG, with the camera view isle and design in the backround.
-I actually liked the "L" shaped Isles thay had in 1995-1996.

Now, I think thay shoud really up the ante, at WM this year, they should have two very LONG Isles, with two completely different stage designs, and lights throughout the whole Isles, and the ropes should be Red, Blue, and Purple. It's different, but I think people will get used to it, It'll seem like a fresh start. As long as the writers and Wrestlers put on a good shoe, it will only add to the atmosphere.

I really enjoyed Wrestlemania 19 and 20's sets.

I also really like the ones that are show themed. Like King of the Ring 1999, the entire entrance was that tower of ladders.

I think they should design the set in such a way to sell as many tickets as possible or cover up how few tickets they sold..........

But other than the huge-ass f***in' cost of designing a new set every 4 weeks max and with sometimes 2 PPVs running a month......You can wish in one hand and shit in the other and see which fills up first. I am disagreeing with you, just saying.........won't happen.

If I see purple ropes, you are in big trouble mister

But yet wrestler can wear purple right?

Anyway, I only said purple because of the cross between red and Blue as the middle rope. Mabe it should be white, but we've already had that.

[Cranjis McBasketball]

I'd go with red, black and white, if I were changing rope colors....simply because the WWE logo are those colors.........If that Teletubby was gay simply because he's purple....man people will have a field day if sweaty guys in tight pants are grabbing at each other in a purple roped ring........

The stages that they DO use cost more than an enhansed stage without the ramp. And I don't mean EVERY PPV, but mabe Raw and Smackdown, and the big 5 or 6 PPV. The other ppv's could be equal in cost, not so much more detailed or anything, just not the SAME.

make the ropes green, or orange, or brown. Not purple.

I have always liked the red ropes anyway

[Cranjis McBasketball]

Well it doesn't cost shit if they've been using it for 10 years......likely, if at an insane interest rate, Vince managed to pay the debt off.

[crunkenstein]

GREEN ROPES!?

I'd enjoy it. haha

I thought all the white ropes for the return of SNMW were bad-ass myself.

Fine, forget the damed purple, the middle rope is black.

There would be not a DAMN thing wrong with purple ropes. Nothing ever looks bad in purple. Except Daunte Culpepper after his first real injury.

As for a new design... hell yeah. Overhaul all of it. Smackdown needs a new name, Raw needs a new set, and the whole WWE needs a new logo. The scratch thing is too reminiscent of the attitude era which is long over. The new look for the Raw logo was a good start, but still very similar to the last one. I like eliminating the ramp, that's kinda played out.

The best thing they could ever do is go into negotiations with the pandas and get the F back. It'll all fall into place from there.

[REDUNBECK~!]

Well, I certainly agree that RAW needs a new set...Well, actually I'd go with an old one. I say just bring back that giant R A W entrance from back in the day. It was smaller, so it blocked off less seats, which meant more tickets to sell, and heck, it got the name of the show on screen in eight-foot tall letters. It would probably be cheaper too, because they wouldn't need about eight trucks to transport the damn set.
