Cleveland? Beach? The card looks great, but why a beach themed event in Cleveland in January?

It’s a really funny choice to me considering they’re going to Atlantic City in two weeks where the venue is literally right next to the beach.

Don't get me wrong, there are some very nice Lake Erie beaches to be had, but this almost feels like it's either a rib on someone or they needed to make it a nominally big show to move some plot points forward. Leaning towards the latter since it does seem like it's being set up for Wardlow to finally get his big moment in front of a hometown crowd, though it's like still, there wasn't any other special name you had sitting around to use?
'Bout the only way the Beach Break name could've been made even more ironic is if it was in, say, Buffalo about this time of year too.

Being near an ocean with salt water, it was always odd hearing about freshwater beaches up near the Great Lakes lol

Orange Cassidy has to win knowing the fact Beach Break is named after his finishing move.

Will the lake next to it be on fire? Why do I have this feeling this will play into how Cole loses

I think the original Beach Break last year was meant to be in Miami and then it had to get cancelled because of outside circumstances and they decided to stick with the special named show in Jacksonville and Daily's Place.
Wonder if it's become like a running gag now that they're going to hold it in places where it's not suited at all for going to the beach.

Can we address why it's in January rather than this idea that there are no beaches there?

I would say that it's because beaches still exist regardless of the month.
It's also had the vibe of a reverse "Christmas in July" deal, to me.

The title could be inferred to mean that they’re taking a break from the beach, rather than at the beach.

The title could be inferred to mean that they’re taking a break from the beach, rather than at the beach. They have bashes at the beach. Could explain why they want to take a break from it. But yeah, no one's really saying "lol cleveland doesn't have beaches." It's more that you're not going to go to the beach in Cleveland in the dead of winter. The forecast for Wednesday calls for a high of 15F and a low of 5F (that's a range of -9 to -15C for you non-Americans).

After having just come home from a return commute that was more sliding than driving, all I ask is that they have like 2.0 or someone do an outdoor segment with this snow that will almost certainly still be on the ground by then to at least lampshade it... or say, show up dressed for the beach and then get ambushed by, I dunno, Best Friends with a few buckets of snowballs. Just completely lean into the absurdity of it.
