10 Venues That Should Host A Future WrestleMania

7. Lincoln Financial Field (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

Opened: 2003 Capacity: 69,176 Philadelphia carries one of the richest wrestling traditions of any city in the United States but has not hosted a WrestleMania since 15 in 1999. With a relatively new stadium, that should change in the not-too-distant future. It's another stadium that has easy accessibility by car or subway and it is viewed in a much better light than the city's previous football venue, Veterans Stadium, which was known for its poor seat placement, especially the "cheap seats", which required binoculars to truly see what was happening on the field. "The Linc" is also one of "greenest" stadiums in the NFL, with solar panels and giant wind turbines creating over 30% of the electricity used to run the place. Located only 100 or so miles from Baltimore, the weather is pretty much the same. For that time of the year, the high temperature is usually around 57 degrees (14 Celsius) with the low around 39 degrees (4 Celsius). Again, that's a little chilly, but nothing a normal jacket couldn't contain, especially once the sun starts going down. The precipitation is about the same as Baltimore, too, coming in about between three-and-a-half and four inches on average for that time of year. It's not the ideal weather situation, but as evidenced by holding WrestleMania in an open-roofed stadium in New Jersey a couple years ago, that's a risk WWE is willing to take sometimes.
