The announcement about WrestleMania 42 was made by WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H

The announcement about the upcoming wrestling event was made by WWE Chief Content Officer Triple H, last week, on August 14, 2025. The news came after a successful WrestleMania 41 event that happened in April 2025 in Las Vegas.

According to wwe.com, WrestleMania 41 became "the most successful and highest-grossing event in WWE history." In the meantime, according to the announcement made by Triple H sometime last week,

"It's time to double down @Vegas… The show of shows is taking over the entertainment capital of the world… AGAIN! Be one of the first to secure your two-day combo tickets to #WrestleMania @AllegiantStadm."

Triple H confirmed that the event was going to take place at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. The Chief Content Officer even urged the WWE fans to secure the tickets to the two days event as soon as possible. Wwe.com further stated that Steve Hill, president and CEO of the LVCVA, has expressed that they were honored since Las Vegas was selected once again to host the event.

Hill continued,

"We are excited to build on last year’s success and deliver an even more incredible experience for the WWE Universe in 2026."

While fans seemed super excited about the recent announcement, many of them were also quite shocked with the ticket prices listed in the tweet by Dexerto.
