WWE EXITING CURRENT THUNDERDOME DETAILS, WHAT WILL BE PRE-TAPED MANIA WEEK & MORE

Post Wrestling reported that due to WWE leaving Tropicana Field after the 4/2 episode of Smackdown, they will be taping the 4/5 episode of RAW on 3/30, and the 4/9 edition of Smackdown on 4/1. 

They also noted that the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony will be taped on 3/30 and 4/1 as well.   The original plan was to hold the ceremony live but it will instead be taped in advance for streaming on Peacock and the WWE Network.

PWInsider.com has independently confirmed reports that WWE's next Thunderdome residency will be The Yuengling Center (formerly known as the Sun Dome) on the University of South Florida campus and that the company will begin broadcasting from there post-Wrestlemania weekend.  That venue seats a little over 10,000 traditionally, so it will be a smaller home for the company than the previous two Thunderdome locations.  I once attended a UFC Fight Night there and it was a great venue.
