WWE WrestleMania May Be Headed To Saudi Arabia Soon
WWE’s biggest event of the year, WrestleMania, could be going international in a huge way. A new report suggests that there is a push for the event to take place in Saudi Arabia, a move that could potentially lead to two WrestleMania events in a single year.
According to a Snapchat video ad from Turki Al-Sheikh — the Chairman of the Saudi General Entertainment Authority — WrestleMania 43 is coming to Saudi Arabia in 2027. While there has been no official announcement from WWE yet, PWInsider reports that the news is legitimate.
WWE WrestleMania In Saudi Arabia?
“PWInsider.com can confirm, however, that the story is 100% legitimate and an announcement is coming very soon, bringing Wrestlemania to an international location outside of North American for the first time ever,” the report said.
WWE began its business relationship with the Saudi regime in 2018, with Saudi Arabia hosting annual PLEs for an estimated $50 million per event. The relationship has continued to grow in recent years, with Saudi Arabia set to host the Royal Rumble in 2026.
In April 2026, WrestleMania 42 will be held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, with Vegas getting WWE’s signature event for the second straight year.

A Global WWE Expansion
The idea of an international WrestleMania aligns perfectly with WWE’s global expansion strategy. In recent years, the company has taken its premium live events to stadiums in Puerto Rico, France, Germany, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Taking their flagship brand, WrestleMania, to an international stage is the next logical step in that strategy.
The Rock would the perfect person to headline such an event. As one of the biggest movie stars in the world and a member of the TKO Board of Directors, he is the ultimate global ambassador for the company. His return to the ring as “The Final Boss” last yearwas a ratings and box office success, proving he is still one of the biggest draws in wrestling history.
