After years of terrifying booking decisions in the 2010s, WWE I started pulling out of burglars in the 2020s. Much of it was related to them hitting home runs in the Bloodline drama, but despite improvements, the company still had one big black eye: Vince McMahon. He is someone who is seen as holding the company down and after his sexual scandal he was finally kicked out of WWE. When Endeavor bought the WWE, fans were hopeful. They already own the UFC, which was going very well, but more than anything, they were responsible for booking Triple H.
Things went pretty well for WWE, leading to better shows increasing attendance and ratings. But slowly, the honeymoon ended for a variety of reasons. Currently, TKO and WWE are making one of all the worst decisions. With the recent shocking news that the WrestleMania 42, which is already scheduled for New Orleans, has been dropped, to return to Las Vegas again, TKO and WWE have shown they don’t care about you. All that matters to them is profit.
WWE has been making lots of bad publicity lately
Triple H&TKO is not so perfect after all
- WWE was doing very well with the WrestleMania 40.
- After Netflix trading, WWE lacks the quality of the show.
- WWE hurt themselves with praise from Donald Trump, buying AAAs and increasing ticket prices.
Last year, WWE had a red hot look on its WrestleMania 40. The business was booming more than ever, the on-screen products were great, the storyline was more interesting, and the title was more meaningful. It also helped WWE find the next face of Cody Rhodes’ company. The momentum wasn’t going to be that high forever, but what’s surprising is how quickly WWE fell. It feels like WWE has gotten a bag from Netflix and stopped trying.
Recently, there have been a lot of negative stories about WWE. It has become clear that they are not treating corporate employees well. Ticket prices have skyrocketed and the show has become out of hand for families, but the fun house shows have become a thing of the past. Sponsors are everywhere on the ring mat and look ugly. WrestleMania41 felt like a big commercial. WrestleMania 41 weekend was a strange thing. Triple H and the Roman rulers praised Donald Trump in an interview, WWE bought the AAA, and the show itself had a very unfortunate end with a disaster that was Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena. It’s hard not to think that the new administration is making more profitable than the products. WWE has become quite boring over the past few months, but do you care about TKO?
WWE is moving WrestleMania 42 to Las Vegas
Rock announced WrestleMania 42 is in New Orleans
- The WrestleMania 42 logo in New Orleans has been created.
- Tourism in New Orleans will be a huge hit for decisions.
- New Orleans is making money from the bank in 2026.
In February, when Rock returned to WWE for an inconspicuous run, he showed up at Smackdown in New Orleans, announcing to the crowd that WrestleMania 42 would be in New Orleans next year. The crowd cried, and fans at home approved. WrestleMania has been in New Orleans a few times before, but the Superdome is a legendary stadium. WWE had a logo made, but on May 22nd, everything changed.
An exclusive report from Wrestlenomics revealed that Wrestlemania 42 is no longer in New Orleans. This comes from an article published by nola.com.
“World Wrestling Entertainment canceled the WrestleMania event scheduled for April 2026 in New Orleans, cutting a big hole in the city’s hospitality calendar next year, the city’s Tourism Bureau said Thursday.
Fightful Select also confirmed this. New Orleans is making money at the bank next year and hopes to get WrestleMania in the future, but there will be no show for the show in 2026.
WrestleMania 42 returns to Las Vegas
TKO doesn’t care about WWE fans
- WrestleMania 41 was at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas this year.
- TKO already does a lot of business at UFC in Las Vegas.
- TKO breaks WWE traditions in various host cities.
Speculation then began about what happened and where WrestleMania 42 would land. Indianapolis has an agreement with WWE to host three largest WWE PLES. The Royal Rumble was just there so will WWE return to Lucas Oil Stadium? TKO and WWE have angered many fans after they announced that next year’s Royal Rumble will be in Saudi Arabia. What a god, are they and WrestleMania there? ! no. The answer is pretty boring. WrestleMania 42 is scheduled to participate in the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for the second year in a row. nola.com said:
“After this year’s event was a success, the new leadership running WWE decided to hold next year’s event in Las Vegas and see how it will receive a response from fans, according to industry officials who are not permitted to be quoted by name.”
TKO loves Las Vegas with the frequency of UFC. WWE is not a UFC. WrestleMania, like the Super Bowl, takes place somewhere in a new location every year, but WWE doesn’t care about tradition. They’re just looking at how much money they can get, and they don’t care if it confuses you, and they don’t care if it hurts others. As reported by Fightful Select, it has already hurt other wrestling-related companies.
“There was immediate dissatisfaction within the industry. Many sources show that Wrestlecon has already signed a venue agreement for New Orleans. There hasn’t been a word about the other promoters who have already signed the deal, but starting negotiations at venues almost a year away was a normal practice.”
The Goodwill TKO, created with wrestling fans, was gradually destroyed. The wave of success that WWE has been continuing is beginning to crumble. How bad is that? Several fans have joined social media hoping Vince McMahon is back. That’s what WWE needs at the end, but at least he cares about the product from time to time. TKO is about the money they can make. Tradition is carried out. However, if WWE fans don’t feel that TKO fans care about them, then the lapsed person who comes back will throw them away again.
