CM Punk habla sobre evento de WWE en Wrigley Field

CM Punk ha expresado interés en llevar un evento de WWE a Wrigley Field en Chicago, revelando discusiones con ejecutivos del estadio. Destacó los desafíos de programación debido a las demandas de producción de los shows de WWE comparados con conciertos. Los comentarios llegan antes de la defensa titular de Punk en WWE Elimination Chamber.

CM Punk, en una aparición en la radio Rock 95.5, abordó la posibilidad de albergar un evento de WWE en Wrigley Field, la histórica casa de los Chicago Cubs. Punk afirmó que ha tenido discusiones con ejecutivos de Wrigley Field, que están entusiasmados con la idea. «Oh sí. He tenido discusiones con algunos ejecutivos, lo diré. Sí, lo quieren al 100 %», dijo Punk. nHe explained the logistical hurdles, noting that WWE requires more time for setup than typical events like rock concerts. «Lo difícil para nosotros es la programación y el acceso. Necesitamos un día para carga y descarga. Créanlo o no, probablemente es mucho más fácil para Wrigley reservar a Green Day porque no tienen las horas-hombre para la carga. Arman un escenario, algo de sonido, y eso es técnicamente todo. Necesitas un poco más de tiempo para meter nuestros camiones allí y montar las cosas porque nuestra producción es mucho mayor que un concierto de rock», añadió Punk. Sugirió que la ausencia de partidos de béisbol simplificaría el proceso: «Hemos estado en discusiones sobre ello, solo hará que sea mucho más fácil lograrlo si no hay béisbol». nWWE ha celebrado previamente grandes eventos en estadios de béisbol, incluyendo Survivor Series en Petco Park, casa de los San Diego Padres. Los comentarios de Punk se producen antes de WWE Elimination Chamber en el United Center de Chicago el sábado, donde defenderá el WWE World Heavyweight Title contra Finn Balor.
