WWE will be officially announcing the location of WrestleMania 36 tomorrow. Earlier today a report from The Tampa Bay Times suggested that they will officially be announced as the host city for WrestleMania 36 during an event tomorrow. WWE’s website just posted the following teaser regarding a “major announcement” tomorrow in Tampa Bay, Florida:
Get ready, WWE Universe, for a very important announcement happening tomorrow, March 7, at 11 a.m. ET, live from Tampa Bay, Fla.
It looks like Tampa Bay will get WrestleMania even earlier than they’d initially planned. The Tampa Bay Times reports that the Tampa Bay Sports Commission (TBSC) made bids last May to host a WrestleMania in the years 2023, ’24 or ’25. With that being said, it looks like Tampa Bay’s Raymond James Stadium will serve as the venue for “The Show Of Shows” in 2020.
The stadium currently plays host to the city’s NFL franchise, the Tampa Bay Buccanneers. Raymond James Stadium can hold over 65,000 fans. This will be Florida’s fourth time hosting a WrestleMania. Orlando has hosted “The Showcase Of The Immortals” twice (WrestleMania XXIV and 33), and Miami once (WrestleMania XXVIII). Now, Tampa will get their first crack at hosting professional wrestling’s biggest event.
