They can get away with it this year because of no Hall of Fame or Takeover, they would either either have to move both back a day or move the former to Summerslam weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah, they could easily do Hall of Fame, Takeover and Mania over two nights going forward. Also means the indys that run have less time to do so having lost Saturday night as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dart Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 They've been trying to move Takeovers away from weekend sharing anyway, I think Summerslam this year is the only one (Mania would have been, obvs) so possibly next year they won't do a Takeover Mania weekend.

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 24, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 24, 2020 The roster is in isolation, expect the people working Mania. Its crazy really. They should all be quarantined to be honest. Its amazing this is going ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam O'Rourke Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 In the miniest of mini-scoops, I know that the writing crew are being kept quarantined in their hotel rooms in Florida all week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might allow them to have their dinners without having to watch Vince eat his first. Fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Butternut Squash Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Filming from different locations is a good sell. It's gonna be hilarious watching Cena in his jorts tumble around the fun house, it could work if it's daft enough and they use the Mr Rogers version instead of trying to get dark with The Fiend. 'Boneyard' match sounds ridiculous, guessing its a buried alive deal. They should definitely stick Becky and Baszler inside a UFC cage or Dracula's castle or whatever. I can't get over how much they've ruined those two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time you think your own isolation is tough, just imagine Broken Vince having a direct line to your room demanding rewrites for the granddaddy of them all. Enough to give anyone chills, that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_3165 Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 Has WWE explained why this year's is too big for one night? Or were they just copying wrestle kingdom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or were they just copying wrestle kingdom. I don't think it was ever the plan until the COVID-19 stuff happened. Probably just easier on WWE to plan out, build stages for and put together the various gimmick matches they're planning. If they don't have a live audience to please, they can take their time and work around different parts of the PC, or other locations, and put together a polished Wrestlemania.

Paid Members BomberPat Posted March 25, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted March 25, 2020 it's also in part because they're not running Takeover and Hall of Fame, so they have the extra nights to pad out with content - and want to monopolise viewers when there's no other sport or live events going on.

WyattSheepMask Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 With them owning the building, or at the very least having a lease for it, it’s provided them with the opportunity to split it over 2 nights. Next year in LA, at least as it stands right now, they’re only booked for one night. With everything else they normally put on throughout Wrestlemania Week, I just can’t see them hiring a stadium for 2 nights rather than putting on the long shows that we’ve seen the last 4 years or so.
