Summary

WWE says WrestleMania 42 finished as one of the highest-grossing events in company history after a two-night run at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas that drew a combined attendance of 106,072.

According to the company's announcement, tickets were purchased from all 50 states and more than 69 countries for the April stadium shows. WWE also said the event delivered record or near-record results across gate, sponsorship, merchandise, WWE World, On Location VIP experiences and digital activity.

The weekend's in-ring highlights were led by Roman Reigns defeating CM Punk to win the World Heavyweight Championship on Sunday, while Cody Rhodes retained the Undisputed WWE Championship against Randy Orton in Saturday's main event despite early interference from Pat McAfee.

That capped a week in Las Vegas that had already been framed as a major spectacle, including WWE's stage reveal for WrestleMania 42 before the show.

Attendance, sponsors and digital reach

WWE said WrestleMania 42 featured a record 32 marketing partners. The company named Snickers, 2K, Riyadh Season, Ram, DoorDash, Wingstop, Wheatley American Vodka, Minute Maid, The General Insurance, PepsiCo's MUG Root Beer and Chumba Casino among them.

The company also said WrestleMania Saturday was the most-viewed telecast of the year on ESPN2, while WrestleMania Sunday was the most-viewed telecast of that weekend on ESPN.

Outside the stadium, WWE said its five-day WWE World fan event with Fanatics reached all-time highs in paid experience sales. The company added that Club WWE, its recently announced Gold membership offering, also had a lounge presence at the event.

WWE also reported more than 1.3 billion social media views across its platforms for WrestleMania 42, which it said was up 18 percent from the previous record set by WrestleMania 41.

What the WrestleMania 42 business numbers mean for WWE

WrestleMania 42's numbers give WWE another clear sign that the event is operating as more than a two-night card. Between the attendance, sponsorship total, VIP business and WWE World performance, the company is showing that WrestleMania weekend itself has become one of its strongest revenue drivers.

It also suggests WWE will keep leaning harder into destination-weekend elements around WrestleMania, not just the matches inside the stadium. Las Vegas produced major reach across ticket sales, brand partners and digital traffic, so the broader fan experience now looks even more central to how WWE presents its biggest show of the year.
