The Gorge in Washington. I would have the stage as the entrance ramp and have the ring in the middle of that pit area. I dont know how well GA would work, but it would be a cool visual. I was about to post this as a Mania location suggestion after seeing that Football stadium with the mountain. I went to a concert there when I was staying in Oregon a few years ago, it's one of the most beautiful places I have ever been in my life. They could have the hill be General Admission and then have premieum seats set up at ringside (the pit area has its own gate) would make a fantastic visual for mania, WWE production would do insane stuff with lighting, staging etc but the crowd would sound terrible on TV, and it's so far out in the sticks which could be an issue.

The massive problems of it being in Croatia and it being a football (or soccer) stadium so it would need a massive amount of renovation for a Wrestling show, it would be a fantastic visual to a see a match with the cliff face behind it. I'm sure WWE's production could put up some great light display up on it. That's Estádio Municipal de Braga, which is actually in Portugal. Yup. It's about 40 km from where I live. Too bad wrestling isn't really in fashion around here these days.

WrestleMania 35 at Turner Field in Atlanta. CM Punk could cut a promo against Coca-Cola for maximum heel heat too.

I think wrestling is still banned from the Royal Albert Hall. Why is it banned? As far as I can tell, it's no longer banned. It was originally banned (along with boxing) due to fears of anti-social behaviour and late-night noise but it seems the ban has been overruled, with boxing being held there pretty regularly.

Fenway Park. Also, this is a longshot, but a show at the National Mall in Washington DC would be awesome to see.

I wouldn't mind Soldier Field being used for a non-Mania PPV. Why not use some of the "smaller" football stadiums for the occasional PPV event?

The ultimate longshot: Obviously not inside it, but if Paul McCartney, Elton John, Billy Joel and Ray charles can play open air concerts with the Colosseum as a backdrop, why not a wrestling show?

I always liked the idea of a floating ring for some reason, so um....oil rig?

It may require some tweaking with the seating, but this would be a kickass venue for an audience determined to have a good time.

They've done NCAABB on them before so it's possible. They could have the Troops stand around, sit on the jets if possible or bring in rented bleachers for it. Think cost would be the major issue though.

Regarding the poster who thought the stadium in Braga was in Croatia, I think this is what you were thinking of:

AT&T Park, San Francisco.
It's not as awe-inspiring as some other choices, but this is one I could see legit working out at some point.

The arena in which Lita first won the Women's Title, I wanna say it was The Cajundome in Lafayette, Louisiana had a unique look to it. Especially the part of the arena filmed by the hard camera. It definitely didn't look exactly like some of the cookie cutter hockey/basketball arenas mentioned in the original post. WWE at Red Rocks Ampitheatre would be a great visual. I always liked the idea of a floating ring for some reason, so um....oil rig? How about Tribute to the Troops on an aircraft carrier? Dunno how the seating'd work, though. This year is the 20th anniversary of Luger slamming Yoko on the USS Intrepid. Just saying.... WrestleMania 35 at Turner Field in Atlanta. CM Punk could cut a promo against Coca-Cola for maximum heel heat too. It would be great if you could have a Ted Turner HOF induction to go with this. "Hey Vince, I'm in the rasslin business!" Fenway Park. Also, this is a longshot, but a show at the National Mall in Washington DC would be awesome to see. I would like to co-sign to the Fenway Park idea for my own personal biases.

The Allianz Arena in Germany. That is a piece of architectural beauty. And in all seriousness, Wembley. The arch is perfect for pyro displays. Plus, you could get 100,000 people in there. There's also The Float at Marina Bay, Singapore. {Spoiler}{Spoiler}
