The WWE Performance Center, a cornerstone for wrestling talent development and innovation, will remain in its current Orlando location, despite recent relocation rumors. Reports surfaced on August 27 suggesting a move to Las Vegas was in the works. However, WWE sources speaking to Fightful Select quickly debunked these claims, maintaining that the Performance Center will not be relocating.

The initial speculation was attributed to comments allegedly made by Mark Shapiro during a meeting. However, WWE insiders clarified that no such announcement was made. According to the sources, Shapiro merely highlighted Las Vegas as a prime destination for sports and entertainment, leaving the door open for potential WWE activities in the city, though these plans remain undefined.

Furthermore, staff at the Performance Center were caught off guard by the relocation rumors, emphasizing that no such plans had been communicated internally. The current Orlando location offers easy access for main roster talent and benefits from a favorable cost of living for trainees.

The steadfast denial from WWE sources underscores the importance of Orlando’s logistics and affordability for talent, seeming to solidify its role as the ongoing hub for WWE’s developmental activities. While the notion of expanding WWE’s presence in Las Vegas remains enticing, the practicality of a complete relocation appears far from viable. As WWE continues to explore growth opportunities, the Performance Center’s role in Orlando seems secure for now, ensuring stability for both current and aspiring wrestlers alike.
