Wrestlezone’s Top 10: Wrestling Cities

By Josh Isenberg

3. Chicago

CM Punk

The last Wrestlemania to be held in a small arena was in technically outside of Chicago, but the town itself has made a mark on the WWE product. Holding multiple Wrestlemanias in the area, Chicago is a town that bleeds their love and passion for the WWE. My best moment was when they were home to CM Punk winning the WWE Championship from John Cena. The crowd was louder here than the Chicago Bulls winning the NBA Finals, the Chicago Bears winning the Super Bowl, and the Blackhawks hoisting Lord Stanley's Cup. Punk is a savior, but the crowd has consistently been there for years. Before Punk, they held Wrestlemania events and multiple PPV's. WWE goes back there so often because they know it will ALWAYS sell. Chi-Town is next on my list to visit.
