WWE has agreed to a deal with the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida to hold all of their television and pay-per-views through October 30, 2020, as first reported by Jon Alba.
According to the report, the deal as it stands is for there to be no fans present through October. However, it also secures a large venue as the company’s exclusive TV and PPV home through this time.
WWE had hoped to resume live events at the end of September but that does not look like a possibility due to the COVID-19 pandemic. WWE is expected to utilize the large LED boards at the venue to showcase virtual fans, similar to what the NBA has done in their bubble.
NXT will remain at Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida.
A rep from the City of Orlando tells me and @MyNews13 #WWE has a use agreement with Amway Center through Oct. 30 with no fans present in the building.
So barring an amendment in the agreement, no live fans through October, but WWE gets arena access for all events through then.
