I'm just too lazy to set one up. Your commitment to your cause is equivalent to WWE's booking of Kalisto. Kalisto is where he is because ADR always needs a luchadore to beat up. ADR, the Mexican JBL.

can't see next year's Mania being in Wrestlemania.
Apparently Orlando has swooped in and taken it away from Minneapolis.
Which upsets me cause I was going to go if it was indeed in Minneapolis.

Still waiting for Mania to come to Vancouver....but Vancourites would ruin it. The capacity of BC Place is just 54,500. I don't think WWE would bring WrestleMania here. They want WrestleMania to appear as a larger-than-life spectacle. (Maybe a venue is slipping my mind. Do we have a larger arena that I am not recalling?) Many years ago, I watched In Your House: Rock Bottom and an episode of Monday Night Raw at GM Place/Rogers Arena. Good times. I would love to see WrestleMania here, but I can't imagine it happening. WWE doesn't just choose a WM host city. A city must put together packages to present to WWE, similar to the bidding for the Olympics. I recall sometime last year, an article was published where WWE had begun assigning grades to various cities (based on attendance). WWE assigned Vancouver at (C), among the bottom of the list. It doesn't help matters that WWE likely recalls last year's house show audience member that threw the replica MITB briefcase at Roman Reigns.

Since we're talking about places we'd like to see Mania, I'd love to see Mania (or any big event) held over here in the UK. We have plenty of stadiums that they could choose from. Sadly I don't see it happening with the time difference. At least we got a Takeover.

You can probably add a lot more for wrestling. Also the briefcase was thrown by a moron in Victoria - cant trust those Island folks. If Vancouver wanted Mania I'm sure they could put together a package to attract it. I just dont think the people in charge at the city have any interest in bringing it here

The most deserving place would be in the UK, that crowd would be amazing. I think a 100,000 plus attendance would be achievable.
No city in Canada has the appropriate stadium for a WrestleMania. The Rogers Center and BC Place can hold a lot but not enough IMO. And I think the Roger Center has a horrible layout being a baseball stadium. If Toronto ever got an NFL team and build a new stadium for them, then maybe. But lets not open that can of worms.

I'd love to see Mania in a bingo hall where tickets are $1 million a piece to make up for the price difference of 80,000 seat arenas.

you do obviously add seats on the floor for wrestling, but the Wrestlemania stage always blocks out about 8-10,000 seats so it's pretty much a wash.
Olympic Stadium I believe is the largest indoor place in Canada out in Montreal.
But no way Vince ever does Wrestlemania in Montreal.

Yes, because casual fans would be more than happy to pay an extortionate amount of attend a wrestling show.
