10 of the best WWE venues in the world

With countless fans and such a long history, it is of no doubt that the WWE has a quite a large list of venues associated with its name.The quality and number of fans who show up is what eventually helps in differentiating one stadium with the other rather than the city or the stadium build. Rather, a better atmosphere and viewing experience is what makes the event worth a while.Here in this slideshow, we bring you the top 10 venues in the WWE:

#10 The Olympic Stadium, Montreal

It was in the Molson Centre, Canada where the most infamous moment of the WWE took place. It was in SummerSlam, 1997 that Bret Hart was legit screwed over by Vince McMahon and the WWE.

Not to miss out, the city of Montreal has a deep connection with the WWE and so does the fans. The fans always transformed the atmosphere into an electrical one whenever the WWE made its way into the city.

However, with Toronto, who had already hosted two WrestleMania, the Olympic Stadium in Montreal with an accommodation of more than 70,000 is another city which, by far is quite capable of putting on a great show which, would nevertheless make a future contender for the hosting of WrestleMania.

#9 Georgia Dome (Atalanta)

The Georgia Dome in Atlanta might not have a long history of hosting WWE events like that of the other venues but the fact cannot be denied that this place is a great wrestling place, compared to others. Although the stadium style has some negative points, including that of plenty of bad seats, the fans in Atlanta more than make it up for such.

The Georgia Dome hosted WrestleMania XXVII with the main event, seemed as a disappointment, between The Miz and John Cena, but it was the fans and the venue, that made it go special. An attendance of 71,000 was recorded and they erupted at various points, including that of when The Rock kicked off the show.

#8 Wells Fargo Center (Philadelphia)

Courtesy of its large ECW roots, Philadelphia has been, for a long time now, known as an elite wrestling town, not to miss out, its love for WWE at the same time.

At the Wells Fargo Center, the Slammy Awards were held with the atmosphere being one of the biggest talk points, courtesy of the electricity provided by the audience. It certainly wasn't the first time that Philadelphia enhanced a wrestling show and it won't be the last either.

In 1999, happened the most notable WWE event at the Wells Fargo Center as it organised WrestleMania XV. It was called the First Union Center at that point, but the arena itself has remained largely the same. Although WrestleMania XV isn’t remembered for being a great one, the main event however, was memorable enough as "Stone Cold" Steve Austin beat The Rock for the WWE Championship in a no disqualification match.

The Wells Fargo Center, later played host to the 2004 Royal Rumble and 2006 Survivor Series. As such, it cannot be denied that the Fargo Center has become one of the WWE's most consistent venues. Because of that, it is also one of the best.

#7 Rogers Centre (Toronto)

Even though, the Rogers Centre hasn't had a WWE event since it was SkyDome, most of the wrestling fans will have to agree that there is something special about the atmosphere of it, regardless of what it’s named.

Rogers Center hosted two WrestleMania’s over the years. The first was WrestleMania VI in 1990 which featured The Ultimate Warrior, defeating Hulk Hogan for the WWF Championship, in one of the most highly anticipated matches of all time. In WrestleMania X8, The Rock defeated the “Hollywood” Hulk Hogan in a match with the fans, on the edge of their seats.

Rogers Center capacity makes it suitable for events, only like WrestleMania. The Center, however, looks a strong candidate for the upcoming WrestleMania’s.

#6 Sun Life Stadium (Miami, Florida)

With no rich WWE history in its content, it might be controversial to include the Sun Life Stadium but with WrestleMania XXVIII in its pocket, it did turn out to be a remarkable venue. The electric atmosphere created by the crowd thanks to the main event between The Rock and John Cena throughout the night set the tone from the very start of the event.

Even though Daniel Bryan lost his championship in just a mere 18 seconds to Sheamus, the crowd helped him feel like that of a star. The crowd was also incredibly loud for the Triple H vs. The Undertaker and CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho matches.

It is tough to think of such loud vocal and engaging crowd, at the WWE, over the past decade.

#5 TD Garden (Boston)

Another town of the WWE, Boston is known for having some of the loudest and outspoken fans in all of sports and they aren’t any different when it comes to the WWE.

Back then, during the 1970s and 1980s, Boston , was one of WWE’s premier venues, alongside Madison Square Garden. In 1995, even though it closed its doors, the TD Garden, known or being a fantastic place to soak in a WWE event, picked up from where it had left.

The WrestleMania XIV, was hosted by TD Garden in one of its first years of existence in 1998. It was then known as the FleetCenter and it set the tone for many more great years as a WWE venue. That 'Mania is famous for the main event of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin vs. Shawn Michaels with Mike Tyson as the special enforcer. Tyson, of course, turned on Michaels and aligned himself with Austin late in the match, which caused the Boston fans to come unhinged.

In addition, the TD Garden hosted the SummerSlam in 2006, Survivor Series in 2008 and the Royal Rumble, both in 2003 and 2011.

#4 Staples Center (Los Angeles)

Los Angeles, with its great cultural mix, and the white, black, and Hispanic fans, who all show up during these events, results in a sold-out building. The best thing and also, a state of surprise to all the Superstars is when they get to see many celebrities, who show up among the Los Angeles crowd, knowing they would all be part of the event.

Staples Center, not only one of the most recognizable arenas in the US, it has, also, quickly become one of the WWE’s go-to venues. The Staples has played host to the past four SummerSlam and various other events of the WWE since it’s opening in 1999. The fans, however in L.A., are criticized for being way too trendy and not hardcore enough but the match between Triple H and Brock Lesnar in the 2012’s event was good enough to term the criticism wrong. A show held within the confines of the Staples Center rarely disappoints.

The Staples Center has also now become an official venue for SummerSlam and it won’t hurt to the emotions of the fans, if the Survivor Series or the Royal Rumble, existed of the same atmosphere.

#3 Wembley, London (United Kingdom)

The rating for wrestling in London, United Kingdom usually provides a higher one than that in the United States. Importantly, the people just love the wrestlers who come and perform there.

In 1992, the then version of the Wembley, before getting demolished in the year 2003 for reconstruction, hosted the SummerSlam pay-per-view of the WWE. Although, there have been just a few big events in the United Kingdom, the one that took place in 1992 witnessed a main-event featured the "British Bulldog" Davey Boy Smith who went on in defeating his brother-in-law Bret Hart for the Intercontinental Championship in front of his countrymen.

The attendance in Wembley counted to 80,335 fans, which remains as the second largest attendance, recorded in the history of the WWE, just behind WrestleMania III.

There has been speculations regarding that any of either SummerSlam or the WrestleMania might be staged, in England, and if, it does end up, happening so, the new Wembley, might very well be in the list for hosting such.

#2 Allstate Arena (Chicago)

The sports fans in Chicago have never been shy but rather enthusiastic which goes on drawing a great house and also, not to miss out are some of the most responsive fans in the world. The fans there just seem to love wrestling.

Every time the WWE comes to the Allstate Arena, a good show is guaranteed, regardless of the match cards. The fans always make up things interesting and that is perhaps why, it keeps the WWE coming back.

The Allstate Arena in Chicago has hosted many WWE events, say it small or big. The most notable among them are the WrestleMania II, WrestleMania 13 and WrestleMania 22. As a matter of fact, Allstate Arena was the last non-stadium to hold a WrestleMania and it very well could be the last based on the success that the WWE has had at bigger venues.

Arena, which was formerly known as Rosemont Horizon, where the local hero, in 2011, CM Punk defeated John Cena in the Money In the Bank pay-per-view with an electric atmosphere, around, is a gem and would always be near the top list, if the WWE, ever decides to go back to a smaller arena.

#1 Madison Square Garden (New York)

Madison Square Garden, New York was where the WWE was first started and continued; getting sold out, time after time. As such, there can be no denying of the fact that it remains as the best venue among all in professional wrestling.

Doesn’t matter if it’s just a pay-per-view or WrestleMania or just a TV show, as demanded by Vince McMahon, any wrestler, competing in the Madison Square Garden, should put up his/her best performance.

Back then, it was the Madison Square Garden, all of WWE’s shows were held. Because of the rich professional wrestling history, relating to Madison Square Garden, it would be impossible to list every event that has been held in it, but, without any much crack of a nut, WrestleMania I, WrestleMania X and WrestleMania XX, any day, would go on and head the list.

The fans involved, is another part that makes the venue go more fantastic. Madison Square Garden is affectionately known as the world's most famous arena, and it's also safe to call it the WWE's greatest venue.
