Check out the statements released, here:

“As first reported on nypost.com, the New York-New Jersey area will once again play host to The Showcase of the Immortals when WrestleMania 35 descends on MetLife Stadium on April 7, 2019. Another big part of WrestleMania Week will be the 2019 WWE Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, NXT TakeOver, Monday Night Raw and SmackDown LIVE, all of which will take place at Brooklyn's Barclays Center.

WrestleMania 35 has strong potential to be bigger than ever, with ticket and special Travel Packages becoming available later this year. Prepare yourself as The Grandest Stage of Them All returns to New York-New Jersey on April 2019.”

With these many events scheduled for the same weekend, the host city will benefit to a huge extent. A huge number of fans arrive at the destination to enjoy the shows giving a boost to the travel and tourism business. The post-Wrestlemania episodes of WWE Raw and Smackdown Live are also reserved after the show.

Five years ago, Wrestlemania 29 took place at the MetLife Stadium which was memorable for a number of reasons. We saw the second edition of the dream match between The Rock and John Cena in the main event. While we also saw, Brock Lesnar return to take on Triple H in a No Holds Barred Match. Plus, we witnessed The Undertaker take on CM Punk, The Shield Debut and WWE Tag Team Champions Team Hell No clash with Dolph Ziggler & Big E.

Despite getting negative reactions, it created a record for a sold-out arena of 80,676 fans from all 50 states and 34 countries in the New York City. It was also the last Wrestlemania event that was available strictly on pay-per-view buying process before the WWE Network was launched.
