London Mayor Sadiq Khan makes public plea to WWE legend Triple H

WWE legend and Chief Content Officer Triple H was recently pitched an idea to host WrestleMania in London, United Kingdom. The Mayor of the British capital, Sadiq Khan, publicly asked The Game to bring The Grandest Stage of Them All to London.

WrestleMania is one of the biggest attractions in the world of sports entertainment. Fans all around the world travel to the host city for the 'Mania weekend each year. Several conventions, meet-and-greets, and independent shows are also held in the area during the weekend.

While speaking to CNBC's Tanya Brier, Sadiq Khan recently said he wanted WrestleMania to come to London.

​

​

“I’d love for WrestleMania to come to London.; Triple H if you’re watching, we want WrestleMania to come to London.”

Khan believed London was the sporting capital of the world. He added that hosting WrestleMania in The Big Smoke would help the event reach its full potential and expand its reach.

​

​

"I think the potential has not been reached in terms of WrestleMania. We are the sporting capital, in my view, of the world. And if WrestleMania wants to expand, the obvious place to come is London."

WrestleMania has never taken place outside North America to this day. It will be interesting to see if the Mayor of London can convince Triple H to finally host the event in the United Kingdom.

John Cena wants Triple H to bring WrestleMania to London

WWE has held multiple premium live events in Europe in recent years. Shows like Clash at the Castle have received positive reactions from fans. At Money in the Bank 2023, which was held in London, John Cena made a surprise appearance. Before taking out Grayson Waller, Cena said he wanted to bring WrestleMania to The Big Smoke.

In an interview with talkSPORT, Cena said he wanted London to host The Show of Shows because he wished to wrestle in the UK before hanging up his boots.

In July last year, Triple H and Nick Khan traveled to London to meet Sadiq Khan. They possibly discussed plans to bring more WWE shows to the city after the success of Money in the Bank 2023.
