WrestleMania 39 (marketed as WrestleMania Goes Hollywood) will once again be a two night affair and be held on Saturday, April 1st and Sunday, April 2nd, 2023. SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California will the the venue, which was the original location of WrestleMania 37 before COVID-19 shut the world down. The Miz will serve as the official host for the event.
The Royal Rumble (which was tremendous by the way) is behind us so it’s officially BEERAMID SEASON!!!
As I’m sitting here typing up this post I’m going back through the site and I realize that I never posted a picture or recap of last year’s event. Sadly, Pip didn’t join us in Cleveland this year as he was on Spring break with his family. Sadder still he won’t be joining us this year for the same reason. That said, we DID manage to watch the show together via ZOOM and we still managed to have a blast (and I still built a small Beeramid over the two nights).
Not only did we get an opportunity to watch the show together, but for the first time ever, the coveted John Cena trophy has left the great state of Ohio and made its way to Indianapolis. That’s right… Pip won our confidence pool and is now the proud owner of Mr. Cena – congrats again sir!
I’ve been asked by several people where our yearly drinking game is, and while I’m REALLY late I’m happy to say the it’s here!
First for a little history lesson…
