this fukkery on top of the fact that all of the indy companies are doing wm weekend shows in that area and fans will be packed in smaller areas
what could possibly go wrong
I hope they dont do axxess this year

Yeah, now from what I gather, the crowds at sporting events during the fall and winter didn't necessarily create covid spikes, and while 45k is too much, I'm looking forward to seeing a wrestling event with fans, but having people packed in small venues throughout the week is a terrible idea, I'm actually surprised that they're running Mania week indie events.

Two night wrestlemania just kills its own hype

People have been calling for it for years now because the main show is too bloated. It actually worked in its favor last year. People who are traveling for Mania aren't going to be cheap about one more night. It's not for the average fan.

II said the moment that a glimpse of hope for a giant live crowd to return to a sports event, WWE would be the one to jump to it first.

Is that going to be 45k combined over the two nights?

Because if not...

Looks like ticket sales got delayed. Prolly due to the NXT situation. I'm hearing UFC wants to do a full crowd soon themselves so maybe Dana White even more crazy than Vince. Hopefully this delay in ticket sales deters people from going.

The indy shows need the money badly. Mania is their bread and butter.
