John Cena: Is WrestleMania in the UK Turning Into a Dream?
Mayor Sadiq Khan of London Meets with Triple H and Nick Khan
There has been substantial progress towards the possibility of hosting WrestleMania, the main event of the WWE, in the United Kingdom. It was disclosed on July 25th that WWE execs Nick Khan and Triple H had gone to London to meet with Mayor Sadiq Khan. Sadiq Khan publicly expressed interest in bringing WrestleMania to London back in April, and this high-profile meeting followed shortly after.
It was said that the Mayor of London and the WWE had “productive” talks, with both sides wanting to host WrestleMania in the famous city. The wrestling industry is shocked by this disclosure, especially in light of Nick Khan’s earlier remarks suggesting that WrestleMania would continue to take place in North America.

For many fans, WrestleMania’s departure from North America has long looked like a far-off dream. But in recent years, WWE has been progressively adopting a more global perspective. WWE is devoted to growing its global presence, as seen by the Premium Live Events it has hosted in several foreign countries, including Australia, France, Wales, Scotland, and Puerto Rico, in addition to an upcoming event in Germany.
London’s WrestleMania is won by John Cena
John Cena has been one of the initiative’s most outspoken advocates. The sixteen-time world champion supported the UK WrestleMania discussions on social media. Cena, who made his retirement plans public in 2025, showed his unflinching support for the concept even if he is aware that he will not be able to participate in the competition.
London and the UK as a whole have stood by WWE through good times and bad. I shall try to use more acceptable terms instead of the word “deserve” as much as possible. I still stand by everything I’ve said previously. London has, in my opinion, EARNED the right to host WrestleMania. Although I won’t be able to compete, I will undoubtedly be present as a spectator. Cena wrote.
The Consequences of Cena’s Support
Cena’s support for London’s WrestleMania is very important. He first urged WWE to bring WrestleMania to the UK after his unexpected visit to Money In The Bank 2023 in London, electrifying the audience and rekindling British fans’ enthusiasm.
