Paid Members Au Posted June 15, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted June 15, 2017 The Independent, of all places, is reporting that WWE has put out a survey to guage interest in doing a Wrestlemania in London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted June 15, 2017 Paid Members Share Posted June 15, 2017 Still think it's a good few years away from happening, if it does. However, with the network taking over from PPV and their focus on the UK market in recent years it's certainly more likely now than at any other period in recent memory. Still think we'll get a 'b' level PPV first before they risk doing Mania here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 "It would be the biggest event on British shores since the 1992 Summerslam" - Or, indeed, the biggest event on British shores. Being WrestleMania and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big7thletter Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I'd happily settle for a UK Royal Rumble and have Rhod Giblert or Phil Mitchell do a run in, or even a Extreme Rules, TLC, Survivor Series, any PPV really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killjoy_Gee Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Question is - where gets to host it? O2 is a given for Raw/Smackdown and Wembley Arena for the HOF (Which surely would have Regal as the main inductee? And Bulldog as the post-humous inductee) Wembley Stadium? I'm not good with the football calendar; but isn't there FA cup Finals or whatnot around the end of March/Early April to consider? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegamehhh Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 the FA Cup is in May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grecian Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Surely a better plan would be the Millenium Stadium (or whatever it's called these days) in Cardiff, with the roof and all? Outdoor event in London in early April is going to have a hefty risk of rain, surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bohan Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I think the new White Hart Lane would be high on their lists for a London mania. It's going to be the home of NFL in the UK which would be a big draw for WWE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because a 90 k stadium is no guarantee to sell out on foreign soil, not that mania ever sells out anyway. It's also not the most relevant argument, when the Superdome is a 70,000 capacity stadium yet it's been chosen to host mania twice within a 4 year period. Typically the same area for Raw and Smackdown is used for Hall Of Fame. As for Axxess I would place my money on the excel centre with it being Londons biggest and best convention centre. Though the space at the far side of the 02 centre outside of the arena has been used for similar events which would make it hugely convenient should the arena be used for hall of fame, raw etc. Quote Question is - where gets to host it?

I can safely say that the area is a million times nicer and safer than what surrounds the Citrus Bowl in Florida and the At&t stadium in Dallas, both of which are true ghettos. Also being a 7 minute tube journey from Kings Cross, it's an hour more centrally located than both of the last two manias also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
