WWE WrestleMania 39 reportedly surpasses last year's ticket sales record
WrestleMania Goes Hollywood is almost here, and the ticket sales record for the event has touched the sky. This year's 'Mania tickets have apparently outperformed WrestleMania 38.
At the SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, John Cena and Austin Theory will compete for the United States Championship. Even the SmackDown Women's Championship will be on the line featuring Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley.
Meanwhile, Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes will battle for the Undisputed WWE Universal Title on Night 2. The RAW Women's Championship and the Intercontinental title will be defended on the second night. Other highlights of Night 2 include Brock Lesnar vs. Omos and Edge vs. Finn Balor in a Hell in a Cell Match.
Given the stacked match card for this year's Showcase of the Immortals, ticket sales compared to WrestleMania 38 were underestimated.
According to WrestleTix, in 2022, over 130,166 tickets were sold out combined on both nights. But this year, the numbers have shot up, and so far, 130,807 tickets have been purchased.

WrestleMania's special Hollywood-style sets have been revealed
WWE has already created several commercials for the show that are popular parody movies and television shows. This year, the company has gone all out to make The Grandest Stage of Them All feel like a Hollywood event.
As with previous editions, we'll have a rather long ramp for the WWE Superstars to walk while we admire whatever the company has planned for the stage.
Louis Dangoor of GiveMeSport shared a photo of the set being constructed in Los Angeles. The entrance ramp stairs appear to be covered in the red carpet in the image as if it were a Hollywood award ceremony.
Looks like the #WrestleMania set is going to feature red carpets to go with the Hollywood theme.
It’s been a while since we had a properly unique set, and it looks like we could be getting one this year https://t.co/8fwLaFtGtp
It would be fascinating to see WWE Superstars make their entrances, leave the ring in fashion, and make a statement, similar to Hollywood celebrities.
