It won't be Minneapolis. Nobody wants to spend 5 days in Minnesota at that time of year.

Barnburner/Shepard said all of Florida is being considered to host again, those are just the ones most likely -- so technically WM could end up back in Orlando again sooner than expected lol

Could see Atlanta get it considering their new stadium and WWE being that desperate enough to quickly claim the attendance record there. Was a big reason why Dallas got to host a Mania after their 100k seat stadium opened since WWE could shatter wrestling records there.
Would be the 3rd largest Mania ever in terms of crowd if they hit capacity (legit or not). |

Seems like Atlanta should get a shot at it.

Tampa needs to have one. Orlando is ok but the stadium is a dump and is in the ghetto. Raymond James is a much nicer stadium and its right off Dale Mabry. Much nicer area than Orlando. Jacksonville sucks and Miami is ok but they've already had one.

I can't grasp why Indy hasn't gotten yet tbh
Indy's held the Super Bowl and like Phoenix, is one of the low-key largest cities in the U.S. people don't realize is as large as it is...Plus, a Indy 500/Race theme for WM seems like a smoothe fit |

This. And they host Final Fours. And they just got awarded the Final Four for 2021 and 2026. The Superbowl we hosted was amazing. I was there. The entire downtown was a heated, amazing, experience. I cant even explain it. I'm not talking shit on Minneapolis, but Indianapolis is legit and hosts these huge things often. Something moneywise is not adding up. I think this has to do with money and thats why Indianapolis is not getting a nod. |

While I'm mentioning places I think could be a good fit, since it's held two RR's in a stadium, San Antonio and a Alamo-WrestleMania-Logo seem like a smoothe fit as well.
They'd no doubt sell out the AlamoDome for WM, where as the RR's each had 45-50k fans - mainly just Texans instead of the WM 'from all over the world' crowd. |

WrestleMania should go to Toronto again. Pretty sure that no TPWWer has ever attended a WrestleMania in Toronto.

From that list, I hope it's Minneapolis, MN. Just because WrestleMania has never taken place in Minnesota.
Georgia would be ok, I guess but I just hope it isn't Florida. WrestleMania has taken place in Florida three times in the last ten years. I get that the WWE absolutely loves Florida (for what reason, I don't know) but it would just be good to get something completely different for WrestleMania 36. For me, I would love it if WrestleMania 36 was somewhere in Canada. Canadian crowds are always great and next year will make it eighteen years since WrestleMania last took place in Canada (it also just so happens that that WrestleMania was the eighteenth WrestleMania). Canada is long overdue for a WrestleMania. |

They probably had 60-65,000 fans
Would obviously have more now |

Atlanta seems like the best option to me. I'm on the Indy bandwagon though, would probably go if they did one there.

Atlanta and Phoenix are always on my potential locations for WrestleMania lists. It could very well be Florida. They haven't done a WrestleMania in Tennessee. I'd suggest the UK, but they will be getting their own WrestleMania soon in warmer weather, and that will be the one that occasionally goes to Boston, Minnesota, Toronto, etc.

lol there is one in Florida every few years
Like, I get it. Plenty of international airports, nice weather, in general a place people are fine spending a week at. But come on. |

I would say that Atlanta is a good shot. Always a good place to do HOF. Jacksonville would be cool too, something new.

I feel like Jacksonville would be the underdog for some reason so I'm hoping it gets the WM

I think knowing how WWE like to do a lot of outdoor WM's, I'm thinking they wouldn't want to do one indoors in Indy, but outdoors there could be an issue just like Detroit where mid to late March and early April weather can be unpredictable. Nobody wants to go live to a show in cold snowy weather.

That second Mania they apparently want to get going or whatever can probably go to the cooler places -- Minneapolis, Toronto, Boston, London, etc.

They should have WM at the Daytona international speedway. They would set a Rasslemania attendance record with 5 billion people

Interesting. The location was always poo-poo'd because of the weather. Maybe they hope it will block out other shows? My guess is they will be going to bank with Brock, but it would be such a WWE thing for him to not be on the show. Eric Bischoff and Sean Waltman for the Hall of Fame that year?

Sean Waltman in my opinion does not belong in the HOF in saying that Drew Carey is still in it.
