If they're gonna obsessively do this at Florida, I wish they'd bring back the cool orange ropes from WM24 in 2008. I love unique rope colors/color palettes, and they don't really do them much anymore. The posts having graphic panels in them has helped give the ring some variety, at least.

This is what happens when the biggest show of the year is held outdoors in April. Unless your city has a stadium with a roof, odds are you won't be seeing a WrestleMania in person. Cities like Chicago, Denver, Cleveland, Boston, Seattle, and Pittsburgh, while possessing the stadium capabilities to host a WrestleMania, will likely never have the opportunity, as I can't imagine WWE tempting Mother Nature with an outdoor show in Cleveland or Seattle or Boston in early April. Honestly, I'm even a little surprised they're going back to New Jersey with the way they lucked out on the weather at WrestleMania 29. I still don't get why they don't do SummerSlam at some of these cities. Historic venues like Fenway, Wrigley, Lambeau, Michigan Stadium, Notre Dame Stadium, would generate huge buzz and monster gates. And as you mentioned, it opens the door for other cities without domes like Philly, Denver, DC, Pittsburgh, Charlotte, Cleveland, Baltimore, etc.

That’s true if they want to hold it at Raymond James Stadium. Tropicana Field has a permanent roof over it but it is UGLY. That is one of the reasons why many people say that Tropicana Fueld is one of the worst stadiums. I would be shocked if they went to Tropicana Field. As you’d said, it’s gross. It's also in a shit location, is disgusting, is basically a giant warehouse, in a terrible location, and is depressing to see.

Cena lives in Tampa, so... All the wrestlers pretty much live in or own properties around Tampa. I used to work at Best Buy between 2004-2006 in Dale Mabry off I275 South, and I used to see Cena, Big SHOW, Edge, Batista, etc..shop there all time. Actually, this year I saw Batista in the local Sprouts store with his girl. Weird to see, because he used to be so much bigger in 2005.

Come to the unacknowledged wrestling capital of the world, Cincinnati. You cowards. Ambrose headlines the Hall of Fame.

Sorry for the bump, but .... www.wwe.com/article/wwe-to-make-a-major-announcement-3-7-19WWE is teasing a “major announcement” tomorrow at 11 AM in Tampa. Gee, I wonder what THAT could be?! *winkwink* I figured Tampa won the bid once the XFL announced that it would name the head coach for the city’s team on Tuesday. I’m sure WWE officials were already in town yesterday, and the press area is already set up other than changing the backdrop from the XFL logo to whatever next year’s WM logo will be. UPDATE: WWE confirms ‘Mania’s location ahead of the press conference. www.wwe.com/article/wrestlemania-36-is-coming-to-tampa-bay-in-2020

I was really expecting it to be Atlanta Don’t think that was in the cards due to the Final Four being in Atlanta next year on WrestleMania weekend. Wouldn’t be surprised if it happens the following year.

Supposedly the logo Ok, but only if they go all out and have a full pirate ship entrance set up.

I've been informed by Google that it will take place in the home of the Buccaneers, a sporting organization of some variety. There actually IS a pirate ship in the arena.

The logo looks good, but they should change the font for “WrestleMania” to something more piratey.

They could do some really cool stuff with that motif.
I hate to see another Undertaker match, but a "ship of the dead" entrance with the purple lights and smoke billowing out of the pirate ship would be so cool
Kairi Sane is self explanatory
B-Team as goofy ass pirates
Special guest appearance by Zack Gowen with a peg leg.
f*** it, let's just go all out and do Wrestlemania 9, but with pirates. Pirate ship carts carrying people to the arena. GO ARR IN!

I nearly ran into edge at international plaza during the busy xmas season lol. Didn't pop into my mind until after the fact ha. Also recall seeing Eddie one time at adventure island...
