No Plans For Fans At 2021 Royal Rumble
Ever since the pandemic forced WWE to relocate to the Performance Center and then the ThunderDome, they have been unable to have any fans in attendance. Instead, WWE have used their ThunderDome set with virtual fans.
In recent months, there have been numerous reports of WWE wanting to have fans back in attendance at January 31’s Royal Rumble. However this may not now be the case.
Earlier today, Jon Alba reported via his ‘Living The Gimmick’ podcast that there are currently no plans to have fans in attendance at the Tropicana Field. Following the podcast.
As I've noted, it's pro wrestling, plans are always subject to change. But the plan as of now, Jan. 7, does not include fans in attendance at Tropicana Field.
FWIW, Florida had 17,783 new positive COVID cases announced Wednesday. #WWE #RoyalRumble
