Not ironic. Exactly the reason why.I think this is the first non-Wrestlemania stadium PPV WWE has done since.... ironically the 1997 Royal Rumble. Correct me if I'm wrong.

It was just a rumour.I thought it was gonna be in LA?
Summerslam hasn't been in LA since 2014...Summer Slam also needs to move from LA
I am very interested in some free tickets.How in the hell is WWE gonna sell enough tickets to fill that stadium? For the Royal Rumble in 1997, approximately 30,000 people actually paid and then for the other half of the people, tickets had to be given away for free.
Balor vs Owens closing WM?!?!. Dude you are mistakingly booking an NxT Takeover event.Cena16 isn't something people are praying for. Having 60k shit on your "top face" to end the night doesn't exactly scream sending the crowd home happy. IMO, I don't see Cena ever getting #16. As for the Rumbledome, I say it'll have at least one of the following : Seth/HHH, Shane/Bork, BulletClub/Shield, AJ/Orton and/or Miz winning the battle royal. Whoever wins the rumble is going after Styles. Balor/Owens will likely be WM33 main event
Do we have a presale code?Presale for Rumble is Wed NOON Central time so 1pm eastern.
