WWE has put on shows after Christmas at the venerable venue for decades. The tradition was briefly halted in 2020 due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. WWE fans in NYC might be in for a great stocking stuffer this year, though.

WWE often touts their long history at Madison Square Garden. Bruno Sammartino was one of the arena’s most famous draws. The first WrestleMania took place at MSG. WrestleMania 10 and 20 also took place in the world’s most famous arena.
