Don't think so, Deelow. Not when there is more money to be made in a larger city, a larger stadium, and PPV buy-rates have next to no correlation with where the PPV is located. Why would the WWE choose Calgary when they can go to a bigger venue? Doesn't make sense at all. Especially when the rumor is McMahon Stadium in March. March for crying out loud. This is when it can still snow 20 centimetres, and still reach -10 degrees. That's a ridiculous proposal, and the WWE would have to be prepared to spend a mass amount of money to protect and cover the field properly, which by the way is extremely expensive to do - I've done a whole semester's work on marketing case studies on the field, so I know. Not only that, but to guarantee against bad weather, they'd have to cover the entire stadium and heat it. I don't think it takes a brain surgeon to see that it is obviously very expensive, and would need to guarantee huge revenue to offset this.
And this whole 'Dome thing is just something another poster brought up. If anyone here think's its feasible, then I implore you to call Vinny Mac up and let him know. The rumor, as it stands, is for McMahon Stadium, and not the 'Dome.
And where are all you getting this kiss-and-make-up story between Bret and Vince? Show me the proof. I've never heard of such a thing. And if Bret Hart showed up at a Wrestlemania in any role other than an audience member, then I'll eat my hat.
