From sleazy establishments to historic landmarks, Times Square has had it all.
Random Professional Wrestlers
In 1999 the WWE, which was then known as the WWF, opened up a restaurant/nightclub in Times Square named WWF New York. The establishment would experience a name change, becoming The World, but, sadly, the end of The World came quickly, as the venue closed up shop in 2003. During its four year run, many wrestlers made appearances at The World, and WWE Heat was broadcast live from The World from October 2000 to February 2002. Two years after The World closed, the Hard Rock Cafe took over the space. While the venue still serves food, you can no longer smell what The Rock is cooking.
