Report: WWE Opening a Physical Hall of Fame in Orlando to Coincide with WrestleMania 33?

March 8, 2016

For what it’s worth, Attractions Management Magazine is reporting that WWE plans to open a physical Hall of Fame in Orlando to coincide with WrestleMania 33. Below is an article excerpt:

Sources within Universal Studios have told Attractions Management that its park in Orlando, Florida, is to open a WWE-museum-cum-restaurant, which will be open by the time the world’s largest wrestling brand rolls into town for Wrestlemania 33 in 2017.

Replacing NBA City at Universal CityWalk adjacent to the theme park, the WWE attraction would incorporate some form of a physical Hall of Fame – displaying famous wrestling memorabilia of the promotion’s legendary performers.

Similar in style to The World – WWE’s former restaurant which occupied a prime spot in Times Square until its closure in 2003 – the restaurant element would incorporate WWE merchandise with a retail area, and multiple screens would show wrestling action while visitors eat their WWE-themed meals.
