WWE is looking to top this year’s WrestleMania when they head to Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas for Mania 41 on April 19 and 20. 8 New Now in Las Vegas has an article on what is planned and the positive economic impact that WWE will have on the city.
Lisa Motley, the Vice President of the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, stated that there would be more than 300 media outlets from 12 different countries next year during Mania weekend.
The plan is for WWE World to take place at the Las Vegas Convention Center and that will include a live broadcast of The Pat McAfee Show, among other things going on at the convention. Raw and SmackDown will emanate from “an MGM Resorts venue.” There is no word yet on if there are plans to run inside the MSG Sphere.
The LVCVA approved $5 million to sponsor the event, which is expected to bring in more than 180,000 fans who will occupy 144,000 incremental room nights during the weekend. Nothing is confirmed but it’s expected that The Rock will wrestle on that show in his first singles match in over a decade. You can register at this link to buy tickets.
