London, Las Vegas & Jacksonville "Under Consideration" For WWE WrestleMania
Getting 'The Show Of Shows' On The Road...
First reported in this week's Wrestling Observer, WrestleMania may soon find a brand new home if WWE elect to follow through on the results of a recent marketing survey about viable locations for the 'Show Of Shows'.
Observer scribe Dave Meltzer noted that: "WWE sent out a marketing study regarding future WrestleManias. They were asking people who have traveled to WrestleMania in the past who are in their database what cities they were most interested in going to, as well as how much money they estimate they spend in merchandise, transportation and tickets. The cities they listed as under consideration for future WrestleManias were London (notable that the city is under consideration), Chicago, Jacksonville, Las Vegas, Santa Clara, Houston, Dallas, Philadelphia, Toronto, Miami, Orlando and Tampa."
Bundling together Chicago, Jacksonville and Las Vegas seemed pointed considering the locations of the first major AEW events, whilst the Atlanta capital and London were all new additions to a list that featured cities that had hosted WWE's crown jewel event at least once before, with the UK capital proving particularly notable considering the huge demand for it since WWE's last similar venture 27 years ago.
Tampa will host next year's WrestleMania 36, whilst WrestleMania 37 in 2021 had been hotly tipped for a Los Angeles locale, but everything beyond that could well be decided on the strength of the above fan survey.
