Venues you would like WWE to run an event at?

[Toxik916]

I think WWE should try and have more events in venues other than normal arenas. Outdoor venues look so much cooler than boring arenas that generally look the same. Wrestlemania 24 was an overall more enjoyable show for me because the venue was unique and looked great.

A homer suggestion would be Raley Field home to the AAA Sacramento Rivercats. It is constantly ranked as one of the best minor league ballparks in the country and could probably hold around 20,000 for a wrestling event.



Where would you like to see WWE run a show at?

Serious Answer: Harry Grove Stadium in Frederick, MD. They did for four years between 2002 and 2005, they need to again.

Wishful Thinking: My backyard. Seriously, I'd let them use it.

Until recently, I would have said the MetroDome in Minneapolis, but with demolition around the corner, maybe the replacement Viking Stadium.

The United Center! Allstate Arena is a dump.

[CATCH_US IS the Conversation]

If SummerSlam is going to always be at the Staples Center, I think that Extreme Rules, and maybe other gimmick PPVs like TLC, Money in the Bank or Elimination Chamber should always be in the Hammerstein Ballroom or the Asylum Arena (ECW Arena).

Millenium Stadium. I only pick that ahead of Wembley because of the fully-retractable roof making for better crowd noise acoustics.

As energetic as the Allstate Arena is, the arena is a tad bland for me. What's preventing them from using the United Center, anyways? Previously it was because WCW held events there, but now...eh?

Also, it holds a lot more people.

They probably have a contract with the Allstate.

And speaking of Chicago venues, U.S Cellular Field, because it's Comiskey Park (well...not really but still) and wrestling in the kind of same place where Frank Gotch become World champion is kinda cool to me.

And sell 2,000 tickets for those two arenas each compared to around 18,000 anywhere else?? Not to mention that one of those places used to be a warehouse...

University of Nebraska's stadium holds 81,000+. I want to see WWE try to market Nebraska and have them send all the tourists there.

I asked the question a long time ago. Basically, they seem to have a deal with the Allstate Arena, plus the City of Chicago has anti-firework ordinances that still remain from the aftermath of the Great Chicago Fire. And, you know how much the WWE loves their pyro.

I really would like to see them sell out that venue for a PPV, especially consideirng that the Allstate Arena isn't that impressive.

Miller Park in Milwaukee. Close proximity to Chicago, retractable roof so no weather concerns, would hold 50,000 for a WWE event. Would make a great spot for SummerSlam if they ever moved it out of LA.

[amaron]

Part of me wishes they'd leave the RAW/SD/PPV events in the larger cities and do the live shows in smaller cities and towns.

Sometimes the crowd just doesn't care and I feel that it sometimes brings down the TV shows and PPVs.

Not to say it's all on the crowd, mind you.

The SUUUUUUUUUPEEEEERDOME

And Thunderdome

[Square]

Wimbledon Court 1. The sound it creates is incredible and it'll be like a Roman colluseum.

[CM Dazz]

If Soldier Field had a dome, it would be perfect for Mania. Stupid motherf***ers....

With the influx of concerts at Wrigley Field, a summertime Raw would be beyond cool there. Punk would get an even bigger pop than he did at MitB '11, if that's even possible.

I've also heard it's logistics. It's so much easier to get to Rosemont with O'Hare right there, than it is to get to the Westside. Sure, its a straight shot down 290, but that traffic blows.

Not as much as they use too. Kane, RVD,Sin Cara and Undertaker. Are the only talent who has regular pyro anymore that I know of. They started a few Raws without it. Del Rio no longer has it. HeelBack doesn't have it and Big Show doesn't anymore I don't think. Since Jericho is gone. Of there is Rey whenever he comesback.

Nah Show still uses his, as does The Usos, and Kofi Kingston.
