sad but true. It pains me to say it, but it'd probably be this generations Austin/Rock or Hogan/Savage meeting. It really hurt me to type that, but its the painful truth. The young fans and total marks for the current product would eat it up. And even the smart fans who disagree with the current product who were in attendance would probably get into it. Just because it seems everyone who hates both of them or one of them, sees one of them as the lesser of two evils.

The WrestleMania IX makeshift stadium was set up in Caeser's Palace car park. There is no way that there was in excess of 16,000 fans at that event.

Watch the video below to relive one of the most sickening ends to a WrestleMania of all time, plus see one of the best looking WrestleMania set-ups of all time, even if the crowd was smaller than you would expect at a WrestleMania.

Hmmm.... actually watching those closing shots of Hogan with the title, maybe there WAS 16,000....

That stadium is awesome. Looks amazing.

My parents love Orlando and are considering going next year again sometime. Perhaps I could try and encourage them to plan it for Wrestlemania week

I liked the WM 9 set-up, one of my favorites.

I also liked The Steiners tag match with The Headshrinkers. Loved those two teams, and they had some great bouts with each other. Michaels - Tatanka was an alright match too.

Something just donned on me. It's outdoors, meaning no roof....

so how the hell will they do MITB, any kind of ladder match or hell in a cell or what not. Doubtful that there'd be a hell in a cell, and if they had a cage they'd just use one of the built ones as opposed to a lowered one.

But if they have any intentions of doing a ladder match or MITB match they're gonna have to a) have some kind of rig like the old nitros, which would be stupid looking and obstruct vision, especially for the upper decks.
or b) have some kind of upside down L attached to a ring post hanging out over the ring assembled before the match.
which would make you wonder why they wouldn't just climb that thing and snag the belts, which would actually play into a spot.
however it'd be pretty TNAish and lame.

Ummm... well maybe they'll simply rest the money in the bank for a year, or redesign the concept. I would assume, much like WrestleMania IX, they will have some kind of canopy/shelter over the ring anyway, in case of bad weather., and they could hang the briefcase from that.

I might actually try and go to Mania next year, but it would be just my luck to finally get to a WrestleMania and face a total wash out. Also, they need to start the card earlier to get the daylight-into-night effect of Manias 3, 8, 9 and 19.

They are still going to have over head lights on the ring. They might hang they lighting structure from the sides of the arena with cables or such, but it's not all that uncommon. Then simply hang the breifcase from that.

Most football arenas have powerful enough lights to light up the whole arena well. I don't know if WWE would still want to put their own lights above the ring though.

Seattle wasn't outside. First of all, you'd have to be a tremendous idiot to schedule an outdoor event in SEATTLE.

But it was at safeco field, and the roof was closed. The only thing that made it "partially open" was that since the roof is retractable there was the lack of a wall, leaving exposed sky in the left and centerfield portions of the park. This was around where the entrance was with the left field bleachers being above the entrance way.

I'd love to see them build aan Ultimate X-like structure, ostensibly just to hang the briefcase from. Don't mention anything about it until just before the match starts. "As you can see, they have had to construct a special structure to hang the briefcase, since we are outdoors." After the match has gone on for long enough, you show one of the guys climbing along one of the cables, having done so completely off-screen.

King: This is amazing! He's going to get the briefcase like that!
JR: Dammit that's not right! Bah gawd, this is supposed to be a ladder match!
*wrestler falls to the ring seconds before grabbing the case*
King: I told you JR, what kind of stupid idiot would climb the cable like that to win a match?!
