Replacing it and Green Lantern with an Intamin Multilaunch... think Pantheon at Busch Gardens in Williamsburg or... GASP Velocicoaster at Universal Orlando
The odd thing is no mention of Zumanjaro? So does the new ride use the tower still.
Edit to add: callers to the park now are being told Zumanjaro is going also.
Also I hope the figure out the power to the park because I remember Batman and Robin playing havoc on the grid if they launched together.

Velocicoaster is a top tier coaster. One of the best I've ever rode
Just to give an idea of the area they are working with look at the area but where El Toro is. They can also go into the parking lot above Kingda Ka. Dear god they are doing something LARGE.
Great White in Wildwood is getting new rolling stock. YAY! It might make a difference in the ride.

Morey's Piers is upgrading Great White wooden roller coaster, one of its best-known rides
New trains will make for a smoother experience on the attraction at the Wildwood amusement park.

Disney getting rid of Muppet Vision 3D is unsurprising but tragic to hear. Especially considering there's only two other things at MGM that I do on a regular basis.
I think it was more of a we need to distance from Aerosmith thing when the contract ran out so they decided to slide the Muppets there and that along with the new Monsters Inc Coaster required the move on from MuppetVision 3D. It does suck but if they do the redo of Rock and Roller Coaster right it could be a huge hit.
Ok so I failed you all and didn't put this here for discussion.

Among the capital investments currently planned for the 2026 operating season:
- Carowinds will introduce a record-breaking water ride
