The Future of Themed Disney Cruises: WWE at Sea? – Part 1 | Episode 646

Disney Cruise Line may be looking beyond the traditional Disney cruise.

A recent Disney Cruise Line survey asked guests to rate several potential themed sailings, including a music festival at sea, an ESPN fantasy sports cruise, a special Castaway Club sailing, and even a cruise built around Disney pin trading.

So naturally, we put the ideas to the MOW crew.

Which ones would we actually book? Which could Rachel realistically sell? And which ideas should probably stay on the survey?

Then things take a very different turn.

As Disney and WWE continue expanding their relationship, reports suggest that some type of WWE experience aboard Disney Cruise Line could potentially make sense down the road. With Eli and Danny at the table, you know we weren't going to simply mention that idea and move on.

What would WWE at sea actually look like? Live wrestling? Legends and current stars? Meet-and-greets? Exclusive merchandise? Themed bars and drinks? And perhaps most importantly: would wrestling fans actually pay Disney Cruise Line prices for it?

This conversation went exactly where you would expect a Magic Our Way conversation to go—which is also why our original plan became a two-part show.

In Part 2, we stop evaluating Disney's ideas and start pitching our own.

What themed cruise would get YOU aboard a Disney ship?
