As Alba notes, the Orlando Solar Bears of the ECHL are expected to begin play on December 11th while the NBA is finalizing its plans to start its next season that month meaning that WWE will likely be done at the Amway Center at the expiration of this deal.
We have been told that several locations have been discussed but are not aware of any finalized plans yet for where WWE would move its production of RAW and Friday Night SmackDown.
The company moved the programs to the Amway Center on August 21st and billing it as the WWE ThunderDome with fans appearing virtually on the video boards throughout the arena.
