WWE plans WrestleMania 43 for April 2027 in Riyadh

WWE is reportedly planning WrestleMania 43 to take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on April 10 and 11, 2027. While the dates have not been officially confirmed by the company, internal planning is reportedly moving forward for the two-night event, which would mark the first WrestleMania held outside of North America.

An official announcement regarding the event is expected to coincide with WWE’s Crown Jewel event in Riyadh on November 7. Additionally, internal projections suggest the 2027 Royal Rumble may be scheduled for the weekend of February 6.

Eric Bischoff has expressed skepticism regarding fan attendance for the event, questioning whether enough spectators will be willing to travel to Saudi Arabia given the costs and the current geopolitical climate in the Middle East. He suggested that WWE may be exercising caution in its scheduling and communication due to regional instability.
