    WWE are not globally confident enough to take their PPV's very far from the USA. Canada being the only exception of recent times, Britain in the 90's and while they have been quite successful, I think it's a marketing risk WWE don't feel the need to take. I mean, why go out for milk when you have the cow at home, y'know? They know their U.S. based PPV's will sell out and the existence of Pay Per View sales totally does away with the need to take the product, literally, beyond their own shores.

    And that goes double for the big enchilada, Wrestlemania. It's not about whether it would sell. There's no question that it would still sell out in certain countries.

    I'd say, look for TNA to move into that market first.

    I think WM would go to Canada at a push. Like Toronto. But I doubt WM will be in England or somewhere they visit quite a bit.

    I'd love for Summerslam to come back to Wembley. It was WWEs highest ever achieved attendance I think.

    What Rob said. I'd be happier seeing them be very successful selling out an American arena with great fans rather than another country where people just go because they haven't been to an event before.

    Hell, look at what happened when TNA did a PPV just out of their prime areas? Wasn't it BFG? The crowd was abysmal.

    I'd go for any lesser PPV in markets the size of Canada or the U.K. or even Mexico. Maybe Japan?

    Have you seen the reactions TNA got in England and there stars would be less known than the WWE. Probably the first 2 weeks in their history they didn't have to insert crowd noise in the show.
