During this morning’s WWE Wrestlemania 33 announcement press conference, WWE Superstar John Cena was one of the people who appeared on the panel at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida.
Cena talked about what Wrestlemania returning to Orlando means, but also addressed his Wrestlemania 32 status. Cena said he had been working very hard and trying to get back in time, but said he will not be competing at this year’s event. Cena said this year’s Wrestlemania would mark “the first time in a decade and a half” where he would be watching the event instead of having a match.

For some historical comparison, same show last year had 3.54 million, 4.06 million, and 3.86 million for hourly viewers. For even more comparisons, only twice has the 3rd hour been at or above 3.5 million for viewers so far this year.

"I would love that role, but I verbally said that because I don't think they think he is strong on the mic, but he is certainly strong in the ring. In my opinion, you could make Cesaro a contender that people believe in, right off the bat, for Brock Lesnar. Within one month, you could get him that hot. Hey, don't be surprised if it's a SummerSlam match. When that kid comes back, man, I know they're going to reassess the way they were using him and if they're going to put a big push on him. He [has] gotten over with the fans anyway. He [has] gotten over huge. He has a huge following. But if he had someone talking for him in the role of being a bad guy, he could be huge, I think."

Orlando won out over more than a dozen other locations when the decision was made not to go with Minneapolis.
Also announced is that the Hall of Fame ceremony and the post Mania Raw will take place at the Amway Arena, while Fan Axxess will take place at the Orange County Convention Center.
Dyer was part of the team that went to Stamford in December to clinch the deal and said the city would like to get WrestleMania every five years.

Observer recently hinted Philly is likely the front-runner to get Mania 34.

During Dean's celebration, Harper, Rowan and Strowman made their way back to the ring to beat up on Dean some more, only for Swagger to come out (which got a neat pop; good for him), followed by Sin Cara, then Truth/Goldust (Truth still wearing the delivery guy gear) then the Dudleys, then the Usos, then Stardust, then Mark Henry (plate of pizza in tow which was hilarious). Faces against the heels in a brawl.
Henry and Strowman confronted each other, Henry tried to bribe Strowman with pizza (which the crowd immediately chanted "Pizza! Pizza!" in one of the biggest pops), Strowman got heat knocking it away, then the faces finally cleared the ring except Stardust. He got a pop by eating pizza and hugging Goldust though he eventually got knocked around, had a couple finishers done to him before Goldie finally tossed him out.
Then Ambrose got the mic, thanked the crowd (especially noting how excited the roster gets when they see Chicago on the calendar) and saw us off. Neat thing WWE did to top off a great night.
