WrestleMania 38 at AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas was the highest-grossing and most-attended event in the history of the WWE.

The company issued a press release detailing the news and revealing that 156,352 fans from all 50 states watched the show live, breaking the previous company record, set in the same building for WrestleMania 32 in 2016.

“On behalf of our family and the entire Dallas Cowboys organization, we are ecstatic to have once again shattered records with WrestleMania at AT&T Stadium,” said Dallas Cowboys Chief Brand Officer Charlotte Jones.  “I’ve experienced first-hand WWE’s commitment to both its fans and host cities alike.  We are so grateful for their partnership and desire to always overdeliver.”

“The city of Dallas would like to thank WWE for presenting an incredible WrestleMania week of events at both the American Airlines Center and the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas,” said Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson. “The week provided an economic windfall for Dallas and proved once again that our city is a first-class host for major sporting events.”

“The city of Arlington is extremely grateful to WWE for bringing back its biggest annual celebration,” said Arlington Mayor Jim Ross.  “We look forward to the opportunity to top this record with a future WrestleMania at AT&T Stadium.”

“We are thrilled that WrestleMania’s return to Dallas again generated record results, proving that everything is indeed bigger in Texas,” said WWE Executive Vice President of Special Events John Saboor. “We are grateful to the Jones Family and the entire Dallas Cowboys Organization, the Dallas Sports Commission, the city of Arlington, the city of Dallas and all the public and private sector partners who were instrumental in making WrestleMania 38 the most stupendous two-night WrestleMania in history. We now turn our attention to next year, where WrestleMania will take over Hollywood.”

WrestleMania 39 will emanate from So-Fi Stadium in Los Angeles, California on April 1 and April 2.

  1. With all the complaining and trolling people do about the product not being good, or because they’re just AEW marks who are forced to have that opinion, that was from top to bottom one of the top 5 greatest Wrestlemanias of all time. Maybe the key is to go in with very low expectations.
