Fans are eager to know where WrestleMania 41 will be hosted after this year's incredible Show of Shows. It kicked off the new era under Paul 'Triple H' Levesque as Cody Rhodes finished his story, Bayley got revenge against IYO SKY, and Sami Zayn ended Gunther's Intercontinental title reign. A combined 145,298 fans attended 'Mania XL at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.

However, the question turns to where next year's WrestleMania will take place. It's recently been assumed that Minneapolis was a frontrunner to host the biggest spectacle in pro wrestling but WWE President Nick Khan might have poured cold water on this.

Nick Khan spoke to the SBJ World Congress of Sports (via American journalist Arash Markazi). He mentioned while the location for WrestleMania 41 hasn’t been finalized, it wouldn't take place in an outdoor East Coast stadium again. The American businessman also confirmed that it wouldn't go head-to-head with the NCAA Final Four. He named Las Vegas as one of the main contenders to host 'Mania next year.


When was the last time Las Vegas hosted the event amid WrestleMania 41 speculation?

WrestleMania 41 could be headed to Sin City come April next year. It will be a long time coming for the Entertainment Capital of the World, as it's been over 30 years since they hosted The Showcase of the Immortals.

The Las Vegas suburb of Paradise, Nevada, hosted WrestleMania IX in April 1993. It took place at Caesars Palace in front of 16,891 fans who watched Hulk Hogan dethrone WWF (now WWE) Champion Yokozuna in just 22 seconds in the main event.

Other matches on the card included The Undertaker beating Giant Gonzalez, The Steiner Brothers beating The Headshrinkers, and Lex Luger defeating Mr Perfect.

It's almost certain that WrestleMania 41 won't be hosted at Caesars Palace at The Colosseum because its capacity is just 4,100. It would most likely take place at NFL team Las Vegas Raiders' Allegiant Stadium which has a capacity of 71,835.
