There are discussions about holding two #WrestleMania events in one calendar year, with one potentially taking place in Saudi Arabia. Recent talks suggest this could happen as early as 2027.
Saudi has experience of hosting top-level wrestling events thanks to their venture into the Crow Jewel which was received well by the wider wrestling fanbase barring certain humanitarian concerns about the level of freedom afforded for the subjects in the Kingdom. However, the advent of an event on the level of Wrestlemania would revolutionise the landscape of the sport-entertainment business.
WWE hosted their most recent pay-per-view with the 41st edition of Wrestlemania which saw a number of high-profile stars and matches fought out in front of sell-out crowd at the Allegiant Stadium in Nevada.
Iyo Sky defeated Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair To Retain WWE Women’s World Championship, while McIntyre got the better of Damien Priest in a Sin City Street Fight.
Son of the legendary Rey Mysterio, Dominik, clinched the Intercontinental Championship as he pipped Bron Breakker, Penta, and Finn Balor to the coveted title.
Randy Orton outclassed Joe Hendry, while Logan Paul got the better of AJ Styles, while Becky Lynch and Lyra Valkyria sunk Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodrigues to seal the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship. However, the biggest billing of the annual event was the return of the iconic John Cena, who beat Cody Rhodes to clinch the WWE Undisputed Championship title.
