There have been several reports in the past week that WWE was set to return to the Land Down Under. WWE has now confirmed that the reports are indeed true.
WWE will return to Australia in 2024 for the Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event. The PLE will occur on February 24, 2024, at the Optus Stadium in Perth, Australia.
WWE has been to Australia on a few occasions. The last time World Wrestling Entertainment hosted an event in the Island Continent was back in 2018. One of the major shows they hosted was the WWE Super Showdown special event. On the show, Buddy Murphy (a.k.a Buddy Matthews) won his first singles title in the promotion.
Hon. Rita Saffioti MLA, Western Australia’s Deputy Premier and Minister for Tourism opened up about the event.
“Hosting WWE in Perth is a real coup for our state as it will shine a global spotlight on Western Australia to billions of viewers worldwide, attract thousands of out-of-state visitors to WA, and create an incredible atmosphere in the city for the local community and visitors alike. The WA Government, through Tourism WA, is proud to support this exclusive event that will generate millions of dollars for the local economy and highlight WA as a world-class events destination. I encourage everyone to Western Australia for WWE to extend their trip to explore more of our wondrous state as part of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” said Hon. Rita Saffioti
WWE Senior Vice President Chris Legentil also revealed that the Stamford-based promotion will be hosting multiple events in Australia the entire week.
