Disagree.They don't deserve to host a damn Summer Slam.
Disagree.
Weather will be good, stadium and arena are both downtown by a bunch of bars and restaurants.
Not as big of an event as Mania, and different time of year opens up other cities weather-wise.
Easy flight from most bigger wrestling hubs.

Monthly Puroresu has an update on the AJPW-WWE relationship amidst backstage issues. As well as an update on Katsuhiko Nakajima's contract with the promotion.monthlypuroresu.com
"Monthly Puroresu previously learned from a higher-up in AJPW that the company – namely President Tsuyoki Fukuda – planned to continue its relationship with WWE and had taken steps to procure talent for the upcoming Champion Carnival.
Monthly Puroresu has since learned that agents involved in procuring talent had failed in that attempt and replacements were being finalized – one pending a visa application. However, President Fukuda is said to be hopeful that the relationship will continue in any case. For what it’s worth, Monthly Puroresu reached out to several within WWE and the NXT sub-brand and heard nothing back that would substantiate a continued working relationship on their end."
"Monthly Puroresu has learned of backstage tensions between executives and staff surrounding the creative direction of AJPW in comparison to the brand’s core values instilled by founder Giant Baba. The situation has somewhat spilled into the public forum with the departures of Fumihito Kihara and Shuji Ishikawa, two tenured names with the company and both supposed to have been instrumental in the brand’s resurgence at the turn of the new year. The consultancy involved in bringing Nakajima to AJPW was said to be a particular source of contention, and we heard a rumor that financial details had been leaked after he was “poached” from NOAH, spurring a retaliation that resulted in the exodus of AJPW talent to NOAH in the new year. One departure was named to Monthly Puroresu as a potential suspect among executives. Likewise, there is a feeling that the lengths gone to procure the touch-and-go deal with WWE and NXT could have been better utilized to build AJPW’s brand to stand on its own two feet. That sentiment appears to be shared both backstage and by fans of the product, with the company objectively failing to deliver on the attention it had garnered from December to January."
