Here's What We Know About WWEs Titan Towers
Titan Towers is the spiritual, and physical, home of World Wrestling Entertainment and it has been for many, many years now. It serves as the symbol of excellence for the company, and while their tenure in the building may be coming to an end, it still needs to be remembered for everything it's done for WWE in the last few decades.
Today, we're going to run through some intriguing facts and figures surrounding WWE HQ as they continue to utilize everything the Towers have to offer during these crazy times.
It's going to be quite some time before we see a full arena of passionate WWE fans at an event due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and as such, WWE needs to start getting a little bit more creative. Courtesy of the Towers, they've been able to take that challenge and run with it - as we'll explain in more detail throughout the list.
15 It Featured At MITB 2020
WWE knew they had to mix things up with Money in the Bank this year, and boy oh boy did they do that. They had both the women's match and the men's match running side by side with one another as superstars went all through WWE HQ before reaching the briefcases at the very top.
14 Brock Lesnar Tried To Destroy It
In the midst of his feud with Triple H, Brock Lesnar took it upon himself to go to WWE HQ and pretty much destroy The Game's office and most of the surrounding area. He also teased a feud with The Rock somewhere down the line which, unfortunately, never quite came to fruition.
13 WWE Is Moving
While the move has been delayed due to the pandemic, the plan is still for WWE to make the jump over to 677 Washington Boulevard as they aim to relocate from Titan Towers in 2021. Whether or not the big move actually goes through, though, is a different matter altogether.
12 A Long Way From Florida
The other 'home' of WWE these days is the WWE Performance Center down in Orlando, Florida. If you ever wanted to drive from one to the other, it would take 16 hours of non-stop driving which equates to around 1,120 miles. Or, you know, you could always just take a flight.
11 The Gym
You didn't think Vince McMahon would have a building this grand without a nice gym, did you? This facility may not exactly be state of the art, but it's clear to see that a whole lot of work has gone into making it as good as it possibly can be.
10 Seven Floors Tall
WWE HQ looks like a pretty intimidating structure, and that really is how it comes across when you first catch a glimpse of it. The building is actually seven stories tall with three levels of parking, and of course, is has a unique glass exterior that you rarely see in new builds these days.
9 The Bischoff Tale
When the news broke that Eric Bishoff and Paul Heyman would be running the ship on SmackDown and RAW, many were intrigued to see what they'd be able to produce. For Bischoff, it meant moving to Stamford (according to the man himself), but just a few months later, he was moving back out of the city again after things didn't quite work out.
8 WWE Digital
All of that wonderful work you see being put out by the WWE digital team actually stems from Titan Towers - and that includes most of the work Cathy Kelley did when she was with the company, which we can all agree was a blessing in its own right. We miss her.
7 Vince’s T-Rex Fossil
Vince McMahon has a giant T-Rex fossil head in his office, because of course, he does. He's Vince McMahon. We've seen it a few times in different snippets over the years, but it's been most notable recently when AJ Styles and Daniel Bryan accidentally burst into his office during MITB 2020.
6 You Can Drive Right Up To It
While some headquarters may require a lot of red tape in order to prevent fans from driving up to the gates just for the sake of it, you can actually drive right up to WWE HQ and have a look for yourself. It may not mean much to some, but for hardcore fans, it's quite the sight to behold.
5 No Guests Inside
In direct contrast to the previous entry, fans aren't actually permitted to go inside the building itself. While it may be tempting to pop into the entrance and make a run for it in an attempt to see Vinnie Mac's office, we're pretty sure that you'd be arrested for some form of trespassing.
4 Monday Night RAW Intro
Back in September 1995, the rooftop of the headquarters was featured in the opening of Monday Night RAW with the likes of Undertaker, Yokozuna, and Razor Ramon being present. It was also used for a television spot during the Super Bowl back in 1999, which as we know is a pretty big deal.
3 Built A Long Time Ago
Even though the building looks as if it was built two weeks ago given how fresh it appears to be, the 110,000 sq ft masterpiece actually came into existence way back in 198. It was built by Titan Sports, Inc. in 1985 and has been the home of the WWF aka WWE ever since.
2 Firefly Fun House Match
One of the highlights of WrestleMania 36 for many was the insane Firefly Fun House match between John Cena and Bray Wyatt, and while the creative freedom of the match was left in the hands of Wyatt himself, the two men filmed a large portion of it at Titan Towers.
1 DX Defaced It
Back in 2006, in an amusing skit on Monday Night RAW, D-Generation X made the decision to 'deface' the front of the building with their infamous logo. All these years later, we're dying to know how on earth they were able to get a sticker (if that's what it is) that big.
