WWE is taking steps against outside groups running Wrestlemania 31 weekend in Santa Ana, CA. As part of their deal running the market, WWE has locked in a no-compete with all city owned facilities in the market as well as several larger hotel chains. Promoters who usually run conventions and wrestling shows over Mania week have been told that non-competes won't allow any wrestling events to be held in those venues. Very smart move by WWE as with very few choices in terms of venues in that market that are close to WWE's events, it makes running the weekend not as financially feasible.
