WWE is always looking to make each and every Premium Live Event a big deal and something to remember forever. This year, WrestleMania 39 will be taking place and it is shaping up to be one of the biggest events in the history of the Premium Live Event. It seems the event has smashed the all-time WrestleMania gate record.
WrestleMania 39 is scheduled for April 1st and 2nd, 2023, at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, California. It will be Hollywood-themed and will feature a lot of big names for the event, among other things.
WWE has just announced that WrestleMania 39 has broken the all-time gate record for the event. The previous record announced was $17.3 million in 2016 at WrestleMania 32. Naturally, this is a very big deal.

Additionally, WWE set in-market gate records for SmackDown and Raw events in more than 20 markets for the year, including the December 30 SmackDown, which took place in Tampa, Fla. and heralded the return of WWE Superstar John Cena.
