The new atlana falcons stadium , simply because WWE likes to do this, and the new LA stadium had some minor setbacks so I'd say later along down the line, but WWE has a history of this ( wrestlemania 25- new dallas cowboys stadium, wrestlemania 29- metlife, wrestlemania 31- Levi stadium )

Hell, by the time of WrestleMania XXV, AT&T Stadium wasn't even finished. The Dallas Cowboy's played their first season there in 2009. Levi's Stadium hosted XXXI, not XXXII.

It's a logistical challenge too. It requires them to alter their production layout, whereas football stadiums are generally just much larger versions of the arenas they regularly visit. The hassle probably isn't worth the payoff, especially considering they'd lose a considerable number of seats. In general, I agree that it's a cool and unique look, though. I just wouldn't expect to see it again. The only WrestleMania where they had to really alter their production layout was for WrestleMania XIX. The Astrodome and Skydome were specifically for baseball use and they had a traditional setup for X-Seven and X8. Compared to X8 and VI's setups, X8's was to better utilize the jumbo tron whereas with VI, they wanted to maximize the amount of possible seats. The reason for VIII's unusual setup at the now demolished Hoosier Dome, it was the same case for VI. For the past few WrestleMania's the WWE has been doing their best to try to sell any possible seat they can. XXXI & XXXIII are two perfect examples. The WWE realizes that by having big, elaborate entryway's for WrestleMania, it cuts into their revenue. With having a simple entryway setup, they can grab more seats to sell which equates a bigger percentage at the gate. While it does sound like a good idea to have WrestleMania at baseball-first stadiums, holding it in a football stadium makes more sense financially. More seats = more money at the gate. Both of those stadiums (The Astrodome and the Skydome) had a bit more of a traditional shape, though. The unique look that he was referring to, and that I was following up on, is the Safeco Field style, which there was really no mistaking for anything other than a baseball stadium.

Yeah I was referring to a stadium that had a baseball shape. I always thought the oilers played in the astrodome.

I don't know why people want mania in the uk IMO part of what makes it special for me is going to the us and getting out of the UK Bully for you - but like you apparently not wanting to use commas or full stops in your posts, consider that not everybody wants - or is able, to spunk thousands of pounds on a frivolous trip to the US. A WM in London, eliminates that issue. Also what could be more special for an English/British wrestling fan, than having WM staged here?

Toronto would be cool. I'm biased since it's my hometown but we could hold it at the Rogers centre. It's been 17 years since we hosted wrestlemania.

And you need to consider a lot of people don't want to do the same for London. It's never going to happen.

Supposedly Indianapolis "just missed out" on 34.
The mayor is a huge wrestling fan. They will definitely get one soon.

In fact, the city was a finalist for WrestleMania 34, but hosting WrestleMania 35 in 2019 could be in the cards''.
I also heard if Rumble weekend next year does well a WM here would be a strong possibility.

The 02 Arena in London is a perfect place! If they add about 70,000 seats.

Final 3 for 34 were Indianapolis, Philadelphia and New Orleans. If it was as close as most are saying, Philly and Indianapolis should both get one.

I do believe WWE gave us Rumble weekend next year as a test run. If all goes well with ticket sales and such(Which it will since Philly is a top wrestling city)then a WM would be in the cards like I've read. They'd be fools not to have Mania here again.

Id definitely go to a Mania in Philly. Plus i wouldn't have to spend money on plane tickets since its only a few hour ride from Cleveland
