    WWE announces Survivor Series set for Chicago

    You mean JMA Wireless Dome now lol they finally sold the naming rights last year). I don't think Syracuse is a big enough market to merit a major show. Also unsure as to regulations but if it's on the campus of Syracuse University (I know the school uses it there could be restrictions on Alcohol...

    WWE announces Survivor Series set for Chicago

    If it isn't Arthur Ashe you got amphitheatres, but they aren't as conducive to Rasslin with a stage and then tiers of seating but not fully around, just like 30%. Baseball stadiums would be good for 30-40K people but they're occupied from late march through late October, and then if it's...

    WWE announces Survivor Series set for Chicago

    Yeah it's great for Rasslin. Only annoying part is that you have to walk through the entire campus to get to Arthur Ashe, and the setup doesn't allow for easy merch inside the stadium, but a lot more outside the stadium. Just bet AEW won't let them run it in July (hell the USTA may not since...

    that was part of it but they also just didn't sell anything.

    I'll tell you a great place for MITB but don't think they can do it contractually. Arthur Ashe Stadium.

    WWE announces Survivor Series set for Chicago

    Agree with you on all that. I personally think Saudi is above it. At least Crown Jewel is. But that's just me and not relevant here. MitB in a Baseball Stadium is damn near impossible as the show is during baseball season. They tried to put it in the Las Vegas Raiders (NFL) stadium but they...

    SaudiMania has become real PLEs in the past like 2 years, before that they meant fuck all. I get people skip it for personal reasons but now that it's a real PLE and it feels like a much bigger show. And I laugh because the prevailing thought with Survivor Series when it was Raw vs. Smackdown...

    WWE announces Survivor Series set for Chicago

    I agree with you that's what fans think, because those were the first 4 PPV/PLEs. What I'm saying is that the show has revolved around the meaningless 5v5 matches and as such Survivor Series as a whole has never really been important. Rumble had Mania implications. Mania's Mania. SummerSlam was...

    I'm confused here. Why is Survivor Series considered a "Big 4" PPV? Just cause it's old doesn't mean it's a Big 4 anymore. Even when it launched it wasn't like there was a big title defense. Hogan would be in one of the 5v5 matches. The "Big" shows are Mania, SummerSlam, Royal Rumble...

    Wouldn't be upset by it but nah they'll probably pick teams. Hope that they put a stipulation to the winning team (winning brand gets #30 in the Rumble or something).

    I love how nobody is talking about the real feud for War Games... Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis.

    WWE announces Survivor Series set for Chicago

    I love the stages they did for Puerto Rico and London, where it was very minimalist and barely any sections that were unsold. Here's hoping they do that again. Also I wouldn't expect a Roman title defense since this is gonna be War Games. Either he'd be in War Games or they got the 2 big War...

    I still want to see Priest cash in on Roman inside War Games.
