Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister has added to that, stating: "I commend every sports franchise for erring on the side of caution. I hope the WWE follows suit. I don't ever want to see people put profit over public safety." Right now, it really doesn't feel like WWE is going to have any other option than to change plans for WrestleMania
