From this weeks Observer
If they do this like 'old-school' Mania and just have a small, understated (by comparison) entrance I will mark, officially, the ***, out. It'll be AWESOME to see a sea of people as opposed to a 1/3 blocked off stadium because of some absurdly sized stage.

Maybe they'll bring back the carts they used at Mania's 3 and 6.

But then Kevin Dunn won't get to put on his big shiny GAIZ WE'RE TOTALLY NOT WRASSLIN WERE ENTERTAINMETN overproduced clusterf*** spectacular!
Seriously, though...they make such a deal about getting these arenas, might as well go for a smaller stage so they can fill the damn thing.

They should bring back the little neon WWF entryway. (Of course, using the modified WWE block logo)

Does WWE have a different seating chart than Ticketmaster?  |

Kevin Dunn will sob and cry and WWE will eventually give him his giant stage/launchpad for pyrotechnics.
My theory is that Dunn wanted to work for NASA, but was too ugly.

I would love a small entrance way. The big stages are cool but just seeing a stadium packed with fans will be enough to give the show that Mania feeling to me.

Um, what?
The seating chart CLEARLY shows seats at one end of the stadium grayed out. Which means fans won't be sitting there.

GAH! Ninja'd So I guess Dave is ignoring the giant area at the end of the ramp where there are no seats on sale? Wrestlemania:  For comparison here is a football seating chart:  |

I like the big stages. It's Wrestlemania. I like it to be as big and crazy as possible.

Mind you that could be a bit naive of me as of course these days it probably covers about 8,000 seats. If business falls too much it'll be one giant stage throughout the stadium with about 400 lonely, scared and highly fleeced customers sitting in the middle. |

WrestleMania is the one day a year we get a break from the standard big screen and stage we see at every TV show and PPV. WWE calls this show "the grandest stage of them all" so the entrance set should reflect that.

But then it takes away this
Look how beaming Vince is revealing that. Makes me smile just looking at his face in the beginning

Visually isn't more people impressive. As Monsoon would say, have the "sea of humanity" there encompassing everything. It'll be better for atmosphere too if they had people in a bowl around the ring rather than just three sides.
