WrestleMania is the biggest event in the world of wrestling, and Orlando wants to get back in on the action by starting a petition.

WrestleMania 33 was indeed the ultimate roller coaster ride, as fans went from experiencing Rob Gronkowski assisting Mojo Rawley in winning the Andre the Giant Battle Royal to Roman Reigns "retiring" The Undertaker, and everything in between. In fact, Orlando was so receptive to WrestleMania being hosted at the Camping World Stadium, they want fans to express their desire for the event to return.

Camping World Stadium, via Twitter, encouraged fans to fill out a survey for fans to share why they think WrestleMania should return to Orlando, as well as share their favorite WrestleMania Week pictures.

Topics in the survey include the likeliness of returning to WrestleMania if it was held in Orlando again, the likeliness of telling friends and family to attend, what makes Orlando "an awesome city to host for WrestleMania," and favorite memory from WrestleMania 33, among other questions.

To add to the pitch, Orlando Weekly also wrote about WrestleMania returning, stating that the event brought $181.5 million in direct, indirect, and induced impact from spending by visitors.

Last year, spectators at the Camping World Stadium had the opportunity to experience an elaborate set, which included a roller coaster and gigantic ring design above the ring that the wrestlers were competing in. The ramp was so long that it helped both the fans and competitors feel that energy of the event.

Before that, the last WrestleMania in Orlando was in 2008, as nearly 75 thousand fans witness Ric Flair's last WWE match, ending his career by losing to Shawn Michaels. Fans also witnessed CM Punk win the Money in the Bank ladder match, Kane win the ECW Championship in a matter of seconds from Chavo Guererro, Floyd Mayweather defeat The Big Show, and The Undertaker win the World Heavyweight Championship by defeating Edge.

Based on the petition, it does not seem as if Orlando wants another nine-year gap between WrestleMania events.
