Or move it to Tuesday again. Their first game is on a Tuesday, what's wrong with Game 4 next Tuesday? It's not like Denver has done some crazy quick promotion for their game next Monday, they got a week to tell people to buy tickets in L.A. instead, where as WWE has a illegitimate claim to the arena, as per their pre-negotiated contract.

Well I don't think moving it to LA is a possibility, because of the way the playoffs are set up. If anything they should try to push the game to Tuesday, or find another place to play a game... there must be some big university somewhere in the area that has a basketball arena to play in.

The Rockies will be back in town that day, but a basketball game can't be played outdoors, and I don't think WWE should be forced to relocate (re-assigning tickets for a new venue could be quite the headache).

Or, of course, they can just break the contract. Big deal, they agree to some settlement with WWE, and carry on.
