WWE Reportedly Thinking Of MOVING WrestleMania 41 To Another Month

April typically means WrestleMania, but WWE could change that in 2025.

Speculation is rife that WWE would consider moving WrestleMania out of its usual April PLE slot next year. Such conversation stems from comments Nick Khan made during an appearance at the Sports Business Journal’s World Congress Of Sports event.

Sporting Tribune's Arash Markazi covered Khan's presser and posted several of his comments on X. One answer Nick gave was in relation to the possible location of 'Mania 41. Khan didn't want to disclose the host city, but did say WWE is keen to avoid running WrestleMania head to head with the NCAA basketball Final Four again.

If that's going to be the case, then the company would need to shift 'Mania away from early April. That's caused people on social media to speculate that WWE would return to a March slot for the annual supershow weekender. Or, maybe they'd go for May instead.

WrestleMania in May just sounds weird, but nobody should rule anything out.

Khan did also suggest that 'Mania won't take place in an outdoor stadium on the East coast again. It remains to be seen whether or not WWE will stick to that long-term, but they were understandably concerned about weather in Philadelphia for WrestleMania 40.
