Wrestlemania 37 will be in LA. Or LA area at least. Inglewood stadium. Hardly a surprise.

Awesome, I figured it was only a matter of time before that new stadium got Mania. I can hopefully scratch Mania off my bucket list next year as travel/hotel costs would be reduced.

Inglewood? Prepared to hear about Wrestlemania coming from "The Gateway to Hollywood!" or something equally foolish.

And of course a hollywood hogan match

I might be in San Jose at that time. Do you know if its easy to get to that stadium from SJ? By car or other ways?

Did a quick Google search this morning and there's supposed to be a new MetroLink line which runs to the stadium. My cousin lives right by LA Union Station, so I've stayed over at his place a few times to watch stuff at Staples Center and then take the Amtrak back down. Not sure if Amtrak is the way to go from NorCal to LA. Should be plenty of cheap Southwest flights from San Jose/Oakland/SFO to LAX/Burbank/Long Beach. I suppose it's not the worst drive in the world (probably 5-6 hours) if you were to drive yourself, but you'd probably have to take that Monday off work.

I'm curious to see how much daylight gets into the stadium. That was the one bummer with WM31 in Santa Clara that Sting's entrance was in broad daylight.

They are building a new light rail line that goes through Inglewood but the stop is about 1.3 miles away from the stadium.

Yikes, although I shouldn't be surprised. Looks like there is a proposal for an additional people mover from the station to the stadium, but who knows if that'd be in place by 2021. Hopefully they work the kinks out with the NFL games (I'm giving a passing thought to watching Guns 'N Roses there in August).

Speaking of Rock, his daughter signed with WWE and is training at the performance centre.

Yeah, I just posted my opinion of that in the Unpopular Opinions thread...

Sorry Charlo plans changed no 16 titles... oh hey Simone.

I wonder will Mikey Cole mention her as 4th gen superstar

 

[WingsMJN2965]

So... The Rock's daughter looks disturbingly similar to him.

It's almost like they're related...

More like there's no mother, and she was created in a lab strictly using the Rock's genes only.

 

[tony d]

She does look like him big time. All the best to her in her wrestling career.

 

[WingsMJN2965]

Dave says Cena vs. Elias and AJ vs. Undertaker are planned for Mania.

Color me not interested in either.

 

[HandsomeHollywood]

Styles has been a waste at Mania. Had Jericho and that's it. It's quite sad his bout with Nakamura was a disappointment. Wasting him on non-wrestler Shane, dial tone Orton and now old man Taker is bad, to me.

The Huckster, the Immoral Hulk Hogan, is being inducted again! How thrilling.

That is stupid. Seriously. Just do Taker smashing Elias and then let AJ/Cena go wild.

Liger right now is probably better in the ring than the other inductees like Batista, some of the original NWO, Bellas, ever were. I guess that's not really fair to Hall.

Samoa Joe got a concussion filming a commercial for WWE, his second concussion in a month.

That's one of the Uso brothers. Not sure which, I can never keep them straight.

And of course a hollywood hogan match

Hogan will show up and call the venue by the wrong name.

 

[Brodeur]

I would enjoy it if R-Truth came out with the nWo for the ceremony if only for the obligatory:

"Truth, you weren't in the nWo."
"Are you sure? Not even the B-team?"
"......"
"My bad."

Scott Steiner collapsed backstage at Impact tapings, but he's doing ok. Thousands of freaks breathed great sighs of relief.
