Bill Apter Talks Risks & Rewards of Having WrestleMania 36 at WWE PC

Bill Apter was recently interviewed by Wrestling Inc. to talk about several professional wrestling topics.

Here are the highlights:

WrestleMania relocating:

It’s the right decision and I’m relieved that they’re not going to be doing it at Raymond James Stadium. Had they left it there, even though people know about the virus, a lot of fans would have tried to go anyway. Wrestling fans are loyal fans and they’ll go anywhere to support it. Moving it to the Performance Center – why not? With families having social distancing, why not sit in your home and watch the show? This is gonna be a spectacle in a different way because no one has ever seen WrestleMania like this.

SmackDown Live from the WWE PC with no audience:

I thought the no-audience PC of SmackDown was very enjoyable to me. I used to go to the small gyms and watch wrestlers and boxers work out. It was a unique perspective and I said I wish fans could see this because it’s really cool.

If he’s ever seen anything like it:

That one classic match with Jerry Lawler and Terry Funk where they ran the empty arena match. Other than that I’ve never really seen it. There were some companies that didn’t do great business that drew 4 or 5 fans [laughs]. I was impressed with the casual way that Michael Cole and Triple H got on during that show. It was refreshing and it was like sitting back with the guys and girls and having a good time watching this happen.

WrestleMania taking place at the WWE PC:

I think there will be a one-hour pre-show with highlights to familiarize people with what’s going on. Then I predict a 2-3 hour show. But again, it may not happen. If one person on that roster comes down with this before that show date, we may not have WrestleMania 36. It may have to become WrestleMania 36.5.
