Is there anywhere in the US where WWE doesn't run?
So I was thinking about this last night.

Are there any states within the US that the WWE tend to just not promote in?

As there are 50 states and 52 weeks in a year

They promote in the UK, Japan and now Italy at least once a year for TV so that's 4 weeks gone

There's Xmas so that's 5 weeks (well the troops show)

Plus the Canada shows, I'm going to have a punt and say 3 a year (Toronta, Calgery and Montreal)

So that leaves the US with 44 weeks and 50 states.

Plus I know they tend to run new york more than once in a year.

So are there any 'No Go' places for the WWE when it comes to putting on TV? I'm sure they do house shows all over the place, but not for TV

They run almost everywhere, I can't think of any off-hand, but they may not run one or two states. They've run Alaska and Hawaii, I know that.

Of course, even though there are only 52 (44 after overseas tours) weeks, they run at least 2 tapings a week, three if they have PPV, so it's more like 60-70 (roughly).

I remember Missouri was a "no go" place for a while because some wrestlers had some tax issues there. I think that since they earned money there in the past, they had to pay the state taxes and there was some issues that had to be ironed out before they could wrestle again in the state. That was a few years ago, though. They've been back a few times recently, so everything must have worked out.

They didn't got to Oregon for a while. I think the state had barred them from holding wrestling events for a while or something of that nature. Not 100% sure though.

New Hampshire has live shows from time to time (They've had Raw or Smackdown there for the televised shows, that is).

Vermont only gets house shows, and only since WWE's been forced to downsize.

They had a Smackdown in Providence just the other week. And Armageddon 2005 was held there.

Doubt they'll be going to Kentucky for a while after last year's Backlash.

Keep in mind they do have 52 weeks a year, but two different breands that don't always appear in the same state.

Until they started doing supershows, you'd see them in different states a lot. They probably still are now, but not to the same extent, and I can't be arsed to check.

EDIT: Check, not care. If I didn't care, I wouldn't post the goddam statement.

Yes Backlash was a dissapointment. But Rupp has had great crowds for RAW in the past and some nice size house show crowds. Plus WWE runs shows in Louisville and Cincy (which is right on the border with ky) and even on occasion in Bowling Green. Plus OVW is located in Louisville.

I hear they can't book in Florida, with the tremendous success of TNA.

I don't mean that the show was bad, I'm talking about the fact they got busted by the state law for the whole blood thing.
