#4. Absolutely nuts 'multiple locations'

Hey, Bray. Do you have any eye drops?

As we were putting this piece together, it was not only announced that WrestleMania would take place over two days, but from 'multiple locations' other than the Performance Center in Orlando. These locations have, so far, not been revealed.

Holy cow, there's a lot of potential here.

Now, WWE's track record with on-location matches isn't... great. Yes, the Matt Hardy/Bray Wyatt "Ultimate Deletion" match was a treat, but we've already known that Hardy knows how to make these kinds of matches work.

On an aside, I'm kind of (but only kind of) disappointed that Hardy ended up in AEW, as it would have been a real shock to see him not only back in WWE in time for 'Mania, but offering the Hardy compound as a location for the Edge/Randy Orton Last Man Standing match. Oh, well.

Still, there's a lot of ways to work this. Have Shayna Baszler vs Becky Lynch in a cage in an empty MMA training gym. The Fiend vs John Cena can be held in a fireworks factory. Edge vs Randy Orton's Last Man Standing match can be held in that hole Edge pulled Orton out of. I dunno. Lots of possibilities.

Would this all be ridiculously gimmicky? Yeah. And hilariously so. But, if you take away the circumstances around why WWE is holding WrestleMania in this manner, well... that's pretty gimmicky in of itself.

Why not embrace it?
