WWE News & Rumors: Physical Hall of Fame in the Works?

The WWE has been known to recognize wrestling greats annually and such serves as a great “throwback” of sorts, particularly to the ones who are not well-versed with the World of Wrestling Entertainment.

The WWE has been around for quite some time now and seeing various memorabilia for current and past wrestlers could be a neat idea. Pair it up on a restaurant-like of a setting and the whole concept could really work.

With that said, all that could materialize if the WWE pursues it.

An opportunity to put up a WWE Hall of Fame restaurant has now come into play and it could possibly be put up at Universal Studios in Orlando.

The opportunity came about after a post on Facebook from the Universal Orlando Resort shared that they would not be renewing the lease of NBA City and are set to go with a new concept soon.

Could this point to a much-awaited opening of the WWE Physical Hall of Fame?

The location could be strategic and enticing for the WWE to consider. The location could compliment the WWE Performance Center located at Azaela Park, Florida which is not far from the vacant spot.

This means that if the speculated Physical Hall of Fame would push through, it would make it easier for WWE officials and superstars to come and go to the location. More so, it stands to be a good tourist attraction, particularly for the WWE fans located or may find themselves within the area.

A WWE Physical Hall of Fame has long been thought of and that chance is now within sight. Imaging a restaurant carrying iconic stuff such as Hulk Hogan’s patented boots as well as various photos taken from different WWE generations and WWE moments? The thought alone would be entertaining.

WWE fans may even get an idea or two as they get indirectly educated with the photos, videos and items long associated with the WWE, a setup that both the young and old will surely approve.

But before getting ahead, it would be best to see if the WWE is seriously considering it and that the folks over at Universal Orlando Resort are open to the idea.

According to a report from BehindtheThrills.com, there are other concepts they have in mind aside from the WWE Hall of Fame restaurant. That includes a Cheesecake Factory and Universal movie set themed restaurant.

One thing that could be hindering all this was a failed past. 15 years ago, the WWE did open the “WWF New York Restaurant (or “The World”) and ended up as a bust.

However, all that was done on a different time period. The WWE is far from where it was 15 years ago so Vince McMahon, Triple H and other top WWE officials may want to take this business opportunity more seriously.
