This year’s WWE extravaganza will take place on April 5 in Tampa, Florida at the Raymond James Stadium.
The SoFi Stadium, located at the former site of the Hollywood Park Racetrack, approximately 3 miles from LAX, will be the new home of NFL teams the Los Angeles Rams and the Los Angeles Chargers.
Once building work has been completed and it opens later this year, the stunning complex will boast a capacity of 70,240.
But that can be expanded for major events, which could mean 100,240 may be able to cram in for the Showcase of the Immortals.
It won’t be the first time that the biggest wrestling show on the planet has descended on LA.
WrestleMania II, VII, XII, and 16 all took place in the area.
And the 21st edition of the spectacular was there in 2005 when both John Cena and Batista won world titles for the first time.
WrestleMania 21 saw The Undertaker beat Randy Orton and Edge win the first ever Money in the Bank ladder match.
