WWE president Nick Khan recently revealed the company’s strategic vision for future WrestleMania events, hinting at both continuity and potential changes that may leave fans divided.
Fresh from the success of WrestleMania XL in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where Cody Rhodes clinched victory over Roman Reigns in the main event to capture the Undisputed WWE Championship, Khan took the stage at Sports Business Journal’s Congress of Sports in Los Angeles to shed light on WWE’s forthcoming endeavors.
Addressing the eager audience, Khan emphasized WWE’s commitment to staging its marquee events predominantly in the United States and Canada for the foreseeable future.
He affirmed that staples like Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series would remain firmly rooted in North America.
However, he hinted at the possibility of certain events, such as Elimination Chamber and King of the Ring, expanding their horizons to international locales in the years to come.
In parallel developments, former WWE manager Dutch Mantell weighed in on the WrestleMania XL main event and offered candid commentary on The Undertaker’s unexpected appearance during the spectacle.
While Rhodes emerged triumphant with assistance from an ensemble cast including The Undertaker, Mantell couldn’t help but express his bemusement at the Deadman’s choice of attire, quipping about his preference for the iconic Undertaker garb over biker gear.
Reflecting on the absence of Stone Cold Steve Austin, Mantell humorously speculated on the legendary wrestler’s hypothetical engagements elsewhere.
Meanwhile, Cody Rhodes himself ignited speculation about potential international expansion during a WWE Live Event, suggesting the United Kingdom as a prospective host for a future WrestleMania.
As the wrestling world eagerly awaits further developments, the prospect of WrestleMania gracing international shores adds an intriguing dimension to WWE’s global aspirations.
