^ Yeah London or Australia somewhere overseas would be interesting but i doubt that would happen. Since they had bad ratings for Summerslam a while back When Hart Faced Bulldog.

San Antonio, eventhough I don't live there anymore. Perfect fitting for HBK going into the Hall of Fame, plus Texas is just a great wrestling state with a history unparalleled to any other. Produced more great stars, home to the most innovative of territories and it used to be a base city for the WWF, running shows there every month for over 10 years. The city has hosted 4 Final Fours (men and womens) since 1998 and a shitload of other events. It would be sweet.

Of the ones mentioned I'd like Nawlins best.

I wasn't so much sure of the ratings and buyrates but just how much would a place like London accept hosting Wrestlemania. I know the WWE does the foreign tours and everything but Wrestlemania is a completely different story, the entire WWE year revolves around Wrestlemania. I think it is a good idea, but a unrealistic one.

I love it to come to London that would be awesome. But i doubt that would EVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER happen.

So im not really that bothered were they hold it. But yeah San Antonio would be cool if HBK got Inducted into the hall of Fame.

The closest to me would be STL, but still I wouldn't go to that. I was hoping for Nashville to be involved somehow, the nightlife there is pretty damn awesome i've heard, and they could do a country themed 'Mania or something. ._.

Honestly I do think that Nashville could be a good Mania host city, like you said the nightlife/culture of the city has a very Wrestlemania-esquye vibe to it. It would be funny to see a Country themed Mania, but idk how well that would sell. Maybe just a music themed Mania (if it hasn't already happened)

Just think of the theme and the stage for that Mania in New Orleans. Remember the Hotel stage for WMXXIV? I think a New Orleans themed Mania would be pretty sweet
That would be cool if they have a Bourbon Street entrance setting and a cajun music song as one of the musical themes for a Wrestlemania in New Orleans.

XBA would no doubt go crazy being that I am almost 100% sure that a Lil' Wayne song would be used as the Mania theme lol.

He's still my IWF homie though :)

I'd hate to be the people here who live outside of NA when it comes to wrestling events like this. I know the business is better here but that sucks to live somewhere and know something like Wrestlemania will never come your way.

Meh, I'm just thankful for what I get. We have a SmackDown! live event coming here, and I'm excited as fuck to see it, even if it is just a live event.

How many times a year (roughly) do they do shows over there?

The crowds in Canada are awesome as because it's not every day the WWE shows up. They only come up here maybe two or three times a year. They are always in the US so it's no wonder the crowds are shit.
