The WWE has announced that the 2019 edition of WrestleMania will be returning to MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey on Sunday, April 7th.
The news that MetLife Stadium would be hosting the show was first reported back in January by Robbie Fox at Barstool Sports.
The company has also announced that the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York would be hosting the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony, NXT Takeover, Raw, and SmackDown Live that week.
The Barclays Center has been the home of SummerSlam since 2015 and given WrestleMania’s location, that would suggest that SummerSlam weekend would not take place in Brooklyn. Although, nothing has been announced by the WWE regarding SummerSlam for 2019.
This will be the second time that MetLife Stadium has hosted WrestleMania, with the first being in 2013 for WrestleMania 29. That show was headlined by the rematch between The Rock and John Cena and was the final WrestleMania to air exclusively on pay-per-view.
