New Home For WWE Raw, SmackDown And PPVs?
It looks as if the CWC will get some main roster action in the coming weeks.
With WWE’s agreement with Orlando’s Amway Center due to finish next week, there’s now rumblings on where Vince McMahon’s sports entertainment juggernaut may find itself emanating from moving forward.
As first reported by Ringside News, main roster WWE programming could soon be heading to the Capitol Wrestling Center that currently houses the NXT brand.
Earlier stories have pegged WWE as moving Raw, SmackDown and PPV events to Florida’s Tropicana Field in the future, but first it looks like those shows will have a stint at the Capitol Wrestling Center – even if it’s only for a week or two.
WWE’s deal with the Amway Center officially ends on November 25, meaning there’s this week’s SmackDown, Sunday’s Survivor Series PPV and Monday’s Raw to still take place at the venue. After that, WWE will need to have a new permanent, or even semi-permanent, home in mind for the bulk of its TV product.
An announcement on the move to Tropicana Field is expected imminently, but it looks as if main roster WWE programming will be getting to take at least a brief stop through the Capital Wrestling Center before the Tropicana Field move happens.
