Article continues B&M! Pyro, Pathos and brawls: Once a year, the wrestling world goes completely crazy at WrestleMania, the grandest spectacle of WWE. Circus meets Super Bowl, Hollywood meets combat sports – all served with a healthy dose of drama. BILD is live on site in Las Vegas and is broadcasting two shows of the gigantic wrestling weekend live and exclusively.
More on the subject Since when has this existed? The first WrestleMania took place in 1985 at Madison Square Garden in New York. Since then, the event has grown into the biggest wrestling show in the world. Today: Two days of mega-event, tens of thousands of fans in the stadium, millions in front of the screens. Like last year, the mega-circus takes place in Las Vegas at Allegiant Stadium, where the NFL team Las Vegas Raiders usually play.
What can it be compared to? Imagine the Champions League final, the Super Bowl, and a Marvel film had a wild child – that’s WrestleMania. Sport? Yes. Show? Absolutely! Not just fighting, but stories are told here: Heroes, villains, betrayal, comebacks.
How much does it cost? Hold on! While “normal” tickets already cost several hundred dollars, at the front it gets really serious: Up to $70,000 for a seat in the front row!
When does it start? WrestleMania 42 takes place over two nights. Part 1 starts on the night from Saturday to Sunday at midnight. Part 2 begins on the night from Sunday to Monday, also at midnight. Both shows will be broadcasted by Netflix.
Who are the mega-stars? WrestleMania is (or was) the home of the big ones: Hulk Hogan (2025) – the icon of the 80s, The Rock (53) – Hollywood star and wrestling legend, The Undertaker (61) – gloomy cult fighter, Roman Reigns (40) – modern superstar and perennial champion, and Cody Rhodes (40) – current top star and WWE champion. The main event of this year’s WrestleMania is the match for the World Title between Champion CM Punk and Roman Reigns.
And yes: Celebrities like Bad Bunny (32) or Logan Paul (31) are suddenly stepping into the ring! This year, the world’s biggest streamer, iShowSpeed (21), will enter the ring!
Why does everyone love it? Because WrestleMania is more than just fighting. It’s a spectacle full of emotions, surprises, and unforgettable moments. Careers are made – and sometimes destroyed. If you’ve never seen WrestleMania, you’re missing out on the craziest mix of sport and entertainment on this planet.
In Germany, Netflix will broadcast WrestleMania for the first time. The shows start at midnight on the night from Saturday to Sunday and last about 4 hours.
