The Wrestlemania look

By Scott Keith on 6 March 2016

Hey Scott,


What is your overall opinion on the look of a Wrestlemania and its importance?For me,since ’07 (Which set up I like) they all look the same and can be one reason why they’re forgettable? Last year was different but only for the daylight. I fear this year’s will have a similar look. Hell,next year they’re back at Orlando, one of the worse looking sets up for me in ’08
I mean,we know 9 was horrible,but people remember the Ceaser Palace theme. (Ok,maybe bad example) For me,Skydome had the best look. Even at WM18. I wonder why they don’t go back there? More money offered elsewhere?

Thanks again.

​They’re seemingly more about showing up the NFL these days than anything, but to be honest the Canadian dollar is dogshit right now anyway so it would financial suicide to hold a Wrestlemania up here. And y’all know me, I’m all about having unique looks and feels to different shows, and aside from Vince putting a Statue of Liberty at the New Jersey WM a couple of years ago, the WM sets have been pretty same-y for a while now and it’s made it hard to distinguish the shows from about 23 onwards. I feel like a dome would even freshen things up a bit​ for some reason. You know which one I really loved in retrospect for look? WM 19 from Safeco Field, which had a unique backdrop and weird zig-zaggy path to the ring. It’s a shame that they blamed that one bombing on Seattle because I’d love to see another one with that particular atmosphere.
