5 wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: Backstage plans to turn popular star heel, Vince McMahon canceled WrestleMania match between 2 WWE legends?

#2. Hope is true: WWE had officials present at Super Bowl in anticipation of WrestleMania 37

WrestleMania 37 will happen at the Raymond James Stadium in 2021.

Since WWE had to hold WrestleMania 36 behind closed doors, the originally-planned venue - the Raymond James Stadium - wasn't used. Instead of going to SoFi Stadium for WrestleMania 37, WWE will go to Raymond James Stadium instead, and the Miami arena was also the host for the 2021 Super Bowl.

Since it had fans in attendance, WWE kept a close eye on it, with reports that cardboard cutouts of fans could be utilized as well. Another report from WrestleVotes stated:

Top WWE star punished? More details HERE

Source says WWE had a few representatives around the Tampa Bay area for last weekend Super Bowl. They were gathering further information on how WWE can best pull off WrestleMania safety. Hence the delay on ticket sales. The event planning & details need to be as precise as ever.

We hope this is true because it makes a lot of sense for WWE to delay ticket sales to pull off the event as safely as possible. There's a significant risk in running WrestleMania 37 this year with a crowd, but it can work out well at a limited capacity.

There weren't any reports about the Super Bowl being a COVID spreader, though some doctors were reportedly concerned.
