Major Update on WWE Hall of Fame Location
According to The New York Post, in an attempt to retain the TV rights for Raw and Smackdown, NBC is seriously considering building a physical WWE Hall of Fame at Universal Studios in Orlando, FL.
NBC is still amidst its exclusive negotiation process with WWE, and that does not end until next week, but The Post notes NCBU is considering using the Hall of Fame pitch as a "deal sweetener" to lock up WWE's TV rights. A statement from WWE reads, "WWE is the hottest property on cable and a proven ratings juggernaut, however, we are in an exclusive negotiating window until the end of next week."
