WWE has yet to announce the date and location of WrestleMania 41 next year.
Minnesota has been considered the front-runner for months, something the city has been rumored to host an event like this since 2015. This includes WrestleMania 33 in 2017, but Orlando, Florida, got the honor.
It’s been believed that should WWE go to the city, they would host it from U.S. Bank Stadium, which is where the NFL’s Minnesota Vikings play since it’s an indoor stadium and has a capacity of up to 73,000 seats for events.
Although the front runner has been in Minneapolis, there have been some rumblings about it possibly being in Las Vegas, where they would host it at Allegiant Stadium, the home of the Las Vegas Raiders.
In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reported the latest on the situation.
Meltzer wrote, “Regarding rumors of WrestleMania for 5/3 and 5/4 in Las Vegas, from what we are told it’s not locked in but it is being talked about as a possibility. Basically it’s working out the deal with the city which is what has delayed the announcement. Minneapolis submitted a bid as well. Undertaker on his podcast stated it would be in Las Vegas next year as far as he had heard and at press time it’s the frontrunner.”
