Honestly, what went wrong?
The food, the service, and the look.

There was the first problem high overhead and wages
I like the idea that was batted around ofnthem getting a spot in Orlando and building a mini HOF along with a restaurant and march store. Low overhead and will be surrounded by tourists.

It was in a stupidly expensive location.

>The most popular nights there were when PPVs were broadcast as for $125 fans could get VIP seating, a three course gourmet meal, sit in front of a huge screen to watch the screen & take the PPV home chair. There were also $50 GA seating for the same events where fans could eat from a buffet line and watch the show on one of the many, many TV screens in the facility.
The truth is it was far too gimmicky to ever be hugely successful, they tried every conceivable angle to promote the restaurant on TV, and it still flopped. You can only go to a wrestling themed restaurant so many times before it's not interesting any more. I'm sure it was overpriced as fuck too being in New York.
It was a McMahon venture outside of rasslin'?
The food was so bad that wrestling fans wouldn't go back let alone normies

It's not time square but I have to imagine City Walk is also one of the most expensive places to open a restaurant. Interesting to see how it does.
Reminder that Vince put money into that shitty meme restaurant instead of buying out WCW's top guys during the invasion angle

Correcting myself here, apparently the CityWalk location isn't happening. Somewhere else in Orlando would be a good fit.
