Last week, MLB debuted quite an interesting concept. Inspired by the movie 1989’s Field Of Dreams, where a farmer builds a baseball stadium on his cornfield, it was encouraged to play a special game in a cornfield between the Chicago White Sox and the New York Yankees who won the first 9 to 8.
The game was broadcast on FOX Sports and achieved an impressive 5 million 900 thousand viewers, being the most watched regular season game in MLB since 2005, which generated a record profit at the sponsorship level.

“With MLB’s success with the Field Of Dreams game last week, WWE has started having initial discussions about holding some outside events in 2022. Some ideas that are being discussed within creatives include: Raw On The Roof, Hammerstein Ballroom and more music festival appearances like Rolling Loud«.
The Raw On The Roof would return to the terrace of WWE headquarters in Stamford, Connecticut and install a ring there as happened in Money In The Bank 2020.
The Hammerstein Ballroom is a room located in the Manhattan Center Studios in Manhattan, New York with capacity for only 2,500 people. There the remembered PPVs ECW One Night Stand 2005 and ECW One Night Stand 2006 were held.
