What happens in Vegas, goes worldwide! It’s time for our annual WrestleMania stage concept! This year’s set was a long-time in the making. Chris (being a Las Vegas native himself) had this idea in his head of doing a custom casino style set since the very beginning but tried many different ways actually build it out.
The set was completed in early March (long before the leaks ever came out). The set itself had been built and revised by him several times and in mid-February that’s about when it all clicked and we were off to the races. Our main goal here was to create something that hadn’t already been done. Sets like Vengeance 2005, No Way Out 2008, and even The Killers Las Vegas residency all used a staged version of the Las Vegas sign and Chris felt that something different needed to be done.
Josh’s computer also crashed shortly after Elimination Chamber 2025 and put a risk of this video not even happening on the table. Luckily, his awesome new beat computer pulled us through and we’re back in action!
Chris pulled inspiration from a variety of places.
– Famous Las Vegas Casino facias; mainly the Flamingo and Circa.
– The Mini Golf Game; Viva Las Elvis.
– The font was pulled from “Nothing Stays in Las Vegas” by Evidence; which showcases a Las Vegas font style on a limited 1 out of 15 test pressing that Chris owns.
Light choices were also a key factor into how this set would come together
-Upstaging Sabre 1000s to pay homage to the neon signs throughout the years.
– American DJ Dotz Matrix to give that “sparkling” casino look
-Ayrton Magic Dots in grand entrance of the casino as moving heads but not so large that they would move out of their positioned radius
The first render of this stage was completed on March 21, 2025 and once we both saw it in Depence, we knew we had what we needed. This is a big collaborative effort as we both do work outside of this channel. These videos take a lot of time but to us they are always worth it. We love seeing how you all react to our designs and we appreciate all the support you guys have shown throughout the year. It’s WrestleMania season, thank you for another year of having us be apart of your WrestleMania traditions.
