Legit something really creative, definitely outside with some sort cool gimmick or landscape theme is the only thing that will make this salvageable.

Unless they get shut down it will for sure be at the performance center. No way the postpone it with the potential shut down of all the TV tapings being a real possibility. They'll want to get this one off before that plays out.
They should run the show from that old abandoned "island" theme park Disney had in Orlando that was shut down and left to ruin years ago. Its all overgrown and post apocalyptic looking now. End of the world themed WM ftw. |

They just need to sell the event to Fox or something. I am willing to bet someone will pay a lot of money for Mania in an empty arena if all other sports are still off tv.

“Why didn't HBK steal the show at WrestleMania XI it was probably because in the prime of his career they decided to let Bam Bam get the spotlight I have nothing against to Bam Bam (God rest his soul) but HBK should have went to WCW after the slap in the face by Vince by not putting him in the Main Event at WrestleMania and even if that meant put HBK vs. Taylor that would have been more entertaining for the fans.” Also a good reminder that there are many people like this out there and sometimes we need a good pandemic to cull the herd. |

Also probably means WWE did have plans for a very lengthy show this year like previously rumored. |

According to Post Wrestling, WWE is changing up their taping schedule for RAW and SmackDown and might also include WrestleMania.
Current plan is to tape back-to-back episodes of RAW and Smackdown next week. There are also potential plans for Mania to be pre-taped as well and not be held live. Also both Battle Royals matches have been dropped from the card according to Post Wrestling. |

Taping Mania makes sense and is the right choice.
Spoilers should be a non-issue with the bare-bones crew too. I would encourage AEW to do the same with Dynamite. |

I think once they finish the tapings they should shut down for 2 months. Finally provide that off-season they never had. Come June they start it back up and start building to Summerslam.

According to the Observer Newsletter, this year's Mania on PPV is going to be pricey and likely what WWE wanted to charge everyone had they managed to move PPVs off the Network.
Also the abrupt decision to split the show into two nights ended up causing a bit of a mess for PPV providers. Quote:

No
WWE ppvs have been available on cable/satellite for a while. DirecTV charged $60 for them. The amount of people who 1) Watch WWE 2) Have DirecTV and 3) Dont have internet access can't be enough to make it worthwhile but they do |

If mania isn't on the network than I just wasted time signing up for free for the next 3 months thanks to that bastard Kenton Lane.

A lot of talents reportedly unhappy and would prefer WM to just be postponed to summer or straight up cancelled rather than do it this way.

Can't blame them since Mania's payday is usually the largest of the year and a big chunk of them just lost it with the removal of the Battle Royal matches.
Plus the added loss of house show and AXXESS paydays leading into Mania itself. |
