So it is. I’ve replaced it with the article that was talking about it from today. My fault for not checking it properly. Damn...now my post makes no sense. I'd rather Summerslam be held in UK. At least there's a chance of good weather in summer. Or maybe they can capitalise on Becky's popularity and hold a ppv in Dublin... Or at least a taping. I mean, my reply was at least modifying that so people still think I’m a dummy. And as some from Dublin, our only two main stadiums are outdoor ones with difficulty getting dates confirmed in advance without issue (The Rolling Stones almost got their concert here cancelled due to a mixup that wasn’t their fault) so I can’t really see that happening.

I'm from Dublin too and yeah I don't see it happening. The last thing we need is Wrestlemania being cancelled due to objections from Croke Park residents.

But imagine WrestleMania at the Ringside Club!

I wanna see them run Wrestlemania somewhere unique. Not like it at all makes any difference to me, because I never go even though they've came here to Texas plenty of times.
It just feels like they're constantly in either New York, Texas, New Orleans or Florida.
I'd love to see them do somewhere like London, or Minnesota, or maybe return to the Skydome in Canada.
Like I said, it makes literally no difference to me, it's just cool seeing all these different crowds and cities hosting.

Looking over that list, Las Vegas and LA seem like shoo-ins once the new stadiums are finished. I’d love to see ‘Mania back in Atlanta since 27 was the very first time I attended WWE’s biggest show of the year. I liked that the venues WWE used for the weekend (Georgia Dome, Phillips Arena, World Congress Center) were all roughly on the same block and an easy one-mile walk from my hotel. Plus it helps that Atlanta has lots of directional signage. Triple H has talked about doing a London ‘Mania before, saying that the company might start with other events there and work its way up. Here’s an interview he did last year on the subject: www.independent.co.uk/sport/general/wwe-legend-triple-h-cools-speculation-uk-hosting-wrestlemania-a8290461.html

I think they should try for the LA Coliseum again.

Hold it in the Tokyo Dome! Undertaker's match still gets a negative star rating.

If they held it in London, I can’t imagine how many phone booths would be on the stage.

Surprised to see Jacksonville on that list, think a second about who owns the football team that I assume play in the towns big stadium.
Also would a London show necessarily be in Wembley? Aren’t there a few big stadiums in London?

Aren’t there a few big stadiums in London? Wembley's the biggest and holds 90,000 for Football. WWE'd want to try everything in their power to try and make that a 100,000 seater for "records" talk and all that. Also next door is Wembley Arena so they can hold Takeover, Raw and Smackdown in there no problem. Arsenal and West Hams are the closest with 60,000 with the pitch.

Wouldn’t Wembley arena be way too small for raw and smackdown? Especially when they’d want to capitalise on the amount of fans in London at they time.

I mean, I was saying it from a convenience standpoint but they'd more than likely use the O2 for Raw and Smackdown and have Wembley Arena for NXT/HOF.
