RIShane Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 28 minutes ago, ComingToAmerica said: I was more thinking of EA Backstage Assault, so now you're all going to have to think about it too. Muahahahaha. But seriously, although it's dreadful for the Wrestlemania weekend shenanigans - WWE and AEW should be better placed than many sports to manage this creatively. Yes, though they also have some extra challenges due to pro wrestling's narrative nature. Its not like being able to reschedule a game later in the season or postponing a concert until further notice, its not just a delay but also affects the broader stories. Whatever happens from here, WWE and other federations (who will probably be the real sufferers financially) have difficult decisions ahead.

Curt McGirt Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 That's what the internet is telling me and it makes no sense. I never owned an N64, but I bought the game. It's long been given away I think, but then why did I buy it? The only thing I can think of is a roommate had an N64. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Great Justice Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 On one hand, absolutely every logical and rational indicator I can imagine points to the show being canceled. On the other, left to his own devices, Vince insisting the show go on is exactly the sort of thing he'd view as on-brand, rebellious and something that would get mainstream attention. I can easily see him currently in a staring contest with Tampa/Florida officials, who wouldn't want to force the closure for insurance reasons (I suspect, as language along these lines would be common in most contracts). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyWhioux Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 ECW Hardcore Revolution was released on N64, Playstation1, and Dreamcast ECW Anarchy Rulz was released for Playstation and Dreamcast I've got 'em both somewhere. I can already hear the "one entertainment institution wasn't afraid to keep it's doors open and create moments for it's fans" propaganda video about not cancelling Wrestlemania. Hell, I'm so used to WWE PR language idiosyncracies I could probably write the whole damn thing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joseph2112 Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 You know if I was WWE I might go completely outside the box on this one. They aren't going to make any money off of a live gate, put this mother fucker on free TV on a Sunday afternoon. There will be literally almost no sports competition and they could break their arms patting themselves on the back on how they "did it for the fans".

More likely, they go in the other direction and the show runs so long it effectively serves as a self-quarantine for everyone there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReiseReise Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Maybe they will go with different locations a lá WrestleMania 2. Something like 100 small locations, each with a few hundred Fans. Every location gets one Match, every Match goes 5 minutes. It will be nowadays' WrestleMania length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overly Critical Man Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Government official: "Mr. MacMahon, why on Earth would you still hold WrestleMania in the middle of a global pandemic when everything else has been cancelled?"
