Post the final match of WWE Bad Blood 2024 in Atlanta, GA, the WWE Universal Champion Cody Rhodes dropped hints about the prospect of bringing WrestleMania to the city. His words were,
“I think you know what I’m going to ask you. Did you guys have a good time tonight? Atlanta, did you have a good time tonight? I’m half-concerned that if I walk to the back, I might get beat up. So I’m just gonna hang out with you guys for a second, okay? You heard the statistics about how many people. You heard that we set an arena record, a business record for WWE. We did that here, we did that in Atlanta.”
As he spoke further, Rhodes said, “I don’t know anything, I’m not in management or anything like that. But I would wager that after a night like tonight, perhaps somehow, something even bigger than that […] to Atlanta. I grew up coming to this place when it was the Omni. I’d cross the train tracks, I’d come backstage. You will never know how much it means to me that a boy from the South, a Crockett kid, a WCW kid, gets to hold the north star of the business, the biggest prize of our day, the WWE Championship. And I will make this as simple as possible. I appreciate y’all so much, I love you so much. Take care of each other.”
Cody Rhodes addresses the live audience after #WWEBadBlood takes a breather, hinting at a possible Wrestlemania in Atlanta.
