The Mayor of London Sadiq Khan is not giving up on bringing the biggest WWE show of the year to the city despite the recent updates that have angered some fans in the United Kingdom.
In July 2024, WWE President Nick Khan and Chief Content Officer Triple H met with the Mayor to discuss a potential UK WrestleMania, which would also be the first time that the Show of Shows would be held outside of North America.

With WrestleMania 41 confirmed for Las Vegas in April 2025, the earliest show that could take place would be in 2026 as no official announcement has been made. However, with recent reports indicating that New Orleans will be the host city for WrestleMania 42 after previously hosting the event in 2014 and 2018 and Indianapolis is heavily rumoured to host the event in 2027, some fans in the UK have expressed their displeasure that they would have to wait even longer for the biggest show of the year to make its way across the pond. Despite this, according to a follow-up statement, there is still hope that one day the show will come to the city.
In a statement issued by a spokesperson for Sadiq Khan to The Daily Star, The Mayor of London is still looking to bring some of the biggest sporting events to the capital:
“London has great pedigree in hosting the biggest international sporting events from around the globe. The Mayor remains determined to bring even more sports from around the world to London, including the first international WrestleMania hosted by the UK, and continues to discuss future opportunities. The Mayor wants to cement London’s reputation as the undisputed sporting capital of the world, as we work together to build a better London for everyone.”
