WWE executive, seemingly hints at the possibility of moving away from events established under the previous leadership, including potentially iconic shows like WrestleMania. The discussion focuses on a desire to embrace new ideas and build new franchises, with Wrestlepalooza being highlighted as an example of a successful new venture. The piece also notes the continued success of Survivor Series.
A future where the Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, SummerSlam, Money in the Bank, Survivor Series , or any combination of the five no longer exists, just doesn't seem plausible. Particularly when it comes to the 'Showcase of the Immortals', but as they say in the wrestling business, never say never.

In the process of doing so, however, he made a rather eyebrow raising comment about wanting to move past certain company events that were started by the old WWE regime.“They’re open to new ideas.

Moving on from WrestleMania would be like the NFL rebranding the Super Bowl. That won't be happening, but what about the rest? The Royal Rumble is an incredibly iconic and important PLE, especially as the precursor to WrestleMania. It's extremely hard to envision a world where that show just goes away. But what about SummerSlam? Money in the Bank? Elimination Chamber? The King and Queen of the Ring Tournaments? Those events could all potentially find themselves on the chopping block in due time. The same goes for Hell in Cell, Backlash and numerous other WWE traditions.WWE Women's Champion Jade Cargill Details Suffering Gruesome Gash On SmackDownRick Ucchino is the Assistant Editor & Content Coordinator for The Takedown on SI.
