Well you can create some old stages, but why 2K simply don't make them themselves and put in the game is beyond me...similar to attires - you have 2013 Kane, but you don't have his most iconic 1998 look, no Big Poppa Pump, no young Kurt Angle with hair, no nWo Macho Man, no Road Dogg at all (he still work for WWE and was in 22, so why he was cut?), no DX music etc...each year people waste their time to recreate the exact same arenas and wrestlers, instead of having most of them in the game already

I've been saying this for YEARS! They just use the same generic stage for almost every PLE for nearly a decade! All they do is just swap out what logos are emblazoned on the LED boards and call it a day instead of going all in on a new design every time so you can look back and be like "Oh, that was Backlash 2016", "That was Elimination Chamber 2014", "That was Royal Rumble 2019". No, instead it's "when the hell was this?" "Was this SmackDown? Oh wait, it was Fastlane!?" Literally, same stage, different graphics!

100% agree with unique sets, they need to return. They also need to consider the experience of the fans in attendance, I was at the Elimination Chamber in Perth and the Stage was flat on the ground - I bought a gold package and had first row seats, however could not see superstars enter or come down the aisle until they got up onto the ring because the Crowd on the floor were all stood up. Each time a superstar would enter and their music hit, the live feed wasnt streamed to the screens either, because the screens were in full view of the camera, so we had the generic "superstar name" graphic displayed , instead of a view of their entrances. They really should bring back raised ramps and stages and consider their fans and their experience more. From what I gathered, I assume logistics had alot to do with why we only got a few screens, I have a feeling WWE sourced the equipment locally given they had issues getting the Chamber out here.
@rustic_mango5 ай бұрын
I’m sure it has to do with money, labor, storage, transportation Emagine having to pay a team to set up all the pay per view sets, then pay to put them in storage, then pay to have them hauled around the country because each show is typically in a different location. Having a designer/architect to create new creative sets. In the hay day of the company sure. Money was pouring in. But now costs have gone up and although wwe is still a cash cow it’s not what it was back in the day. I’m sure it’s very expensive.

It's because they sell so many tickets to PLEs that seating areas which would otherwise be walled off are utilized, meaning the sets are intentionally minimized to accommodate more ticket sales. Look at Survivor Series this year. There was almost no set at all because of demand. RAW is going back to Allstate Arena in Chicago in March and there are 4K less tickets being offered, probably to accommodate the RAW set.

Stages only affect the ones in attendance. The ones watching on TV it really doesn't bother. The stage is only shown for a minimal amount of time and as each wrestler is introduced, the CGI pops up as they pan the crowd. So, it's really not a big deal.

I think they have to meet higher risk PPV/PLE each year, TLC, money the bank, Extreme rules and Hell in a Cell. Hell in a Cell and extreme rules can stay. But TLC and money in the bank should be combined, They have the same exact rules sets. It takes down how many stars are going to be injured throughout the year. None of these PVP/PLE should take president between Royal Rumble and wrestlemania. Taken any high risk event during that ti'm could seriously injure wrestlemania matches.

We don't care if they have to book big Arenas all the time just for great stages so be it throw the little Arenas in the trash then a sacrifice worth sacrificing because I didn't grow up on wrestling like this

When I was younger, I'd get so excited ordering a PPV & wondering what the set was going to look like.

makes sense they stop when most stages would only be used once and never used again

I missed having the videos of their entrance themes on the titantron on top of the entry door. Sadly they just have a big screen with the wrestler's name in poor text fonts or their logo.

I think the sole reason they took focus away from PLE stages/sets is because they have a greater emphasis on crowd seating & attendance now. They’ll sacrifice an elaborate stage-set for the sake of having extra seating available to increase their attendance numbers

Ill be honest, I kinda prefer the stripped back look they are going for now, its the modern era, they are going for a more sporting feel. The only set I miss is the Smackdown Fist.

I imagine the reason why stages are basically just one or two big LED screens, is because it’s cost effective and reduces waste. I’ve always wondered what happened to the sets and props after the event has ended and I imagine the answer is it’s stored away in a big warehouse never to be used again. So why would they spend money on designs that would only get used once, when you can just use the same LED screens that are used every week for Raw & SmackDown. I think there should be some kind of special stage design that sets Raw & SmackDown apart and makes them look and feel like the independent shows that they are. We all remember the SmackDown fist and the huge titantron that Raw had, and that design won’t go to waste as it will be used every week. But again, it’s time and money having to pay someone to set it all up before shows and tear it down after

I am so grateful for this video because I am so disappointed with WWE stages since 2014 when they started to get rid off the unique stage designs for each ppv. Especially someone who has so many subscribers like you doing such a video is so important and hopefully one day this request will be heard by the right people

The pirate ship at Raymond James stadium wasn't a WWE prop. It's owned by the team/stadium. WWE just provided the sails.

Except of Wrestlemania 39 I agree. Wrestlemania 35 stage Was awful and even Wrestlemania 31 was obviously a remake of the Wrestlemania 28 stage but adapted to the WM 31 logo. Wrestlemania 29 was incredible
