During the Sunday Night’s Main Event podcast, Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer suggested WWE WrestleMania becoming a two-night event in the future:
“I think WrestleMania is gonna be a 2-night thing going forward,” Meltzer said. “I think was the first step to see will people buy and they bought in good enough numbers. Did it sell out first day, were the original numbers gigantic? No, but it’s fine. It’s a big stadium. It wasn’t gonna be easy to sell it out two straight days. They haven’t announced 2 days for next year but I think it’s better to go for 2 days. It’s just the nature of what WrestleMania has become. There’s more money to be made and it’s better for the shows…”
“I talked to people there and they certainly gave me the impression that the idea is 2 days going forward. They always can change their mind based on what happens. I think that they all thought that 7-hour show just doesn’t work. That’s more tiring than the 2 days.”
WrestleTix claimed that as of March 19th, 58,022 tickets for Wrestlemania Sunday had been distributed. As of March 4th, 56,076 tickets for Wrestlemania Saturday had been allocated.
Drew McIntyre and Alexa Bliss are two WWE talents that have publicly advocated for Wrestlemania to be split into two nights.
