[Thanks to PWTorch reader Jimmy S.]<\/p>\n<p>-WWE announced WrestleMania generated a record $170.4 million for the Dallas\/Arlington region earlier this year according to a study conducted by the Enigma Research Corporation. \u201cOn behalf of our city, we would like to thank all of the domestic and international WWE fans that converged on Dallas for WrestleMania Week to enjoy all that North Texas has to offer,\u201d said Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings. \u201cThe week-long series of events brought a tremendous economic windfall to our region.\u201d They touted that \u201ca record crowd of 101,763 fans from all 50 states and 35 countries attended WWE\u2019s pop-culture extravaganza this past April, making it the highest-grossing and best-attended event in WWE history. Key highlights from the study include: $170.4 million in direct, indirect and induced impact derived from spending by visitors to the Dallas\/Arlington region for WrestleMania 32; 72% of fans that attended WrestleMania were from outside the greater Dallas\/Arlington region and stayed an average of 3.9 nights; $25 million was spent on hotels and accommodations within the Dallas\/Arlington region. The economic impact derived from WrestleMania Week was equal to the creation of 1,550 full-time jobs for the area. $8.4 million was spent by visitors to the Dallas\/Arlington region at area restaurants.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOW READ THE PREVIOUS &#8220;NEWS ITEMS&#8221; UPDATE:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pwtorch.com\/site\/2016\/11\/17\/news-items-waltman-endorses-linda-mcmahon-trumps-cabinet-people-magazine-names-rock-sexiest-man-alive-nese-signs-wwe-impact-dvr-data\/\">Waltman endorses Linda McMahon for Trump\u2019s cabinet, People Magazine names Rock the \u201cSexiest Man Alive,\u201d Nese signs with WWE, Impact DVR data<\/a><\/p>\n<p>FOR MORE NEWS CHECK OUT AFFILIATE SITE <a href=\"http:\/\/prowrestling.net\/site\/category\/newsupdates\/\">PROWRESTLING.NET&#8217;S\u00a0NEWS LISTING<\/a>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Please send any news tips and results to: pwtorch@gmail.com. <\/em><em>For instance, let us know if\u00a0you hear a pro wrestling reference on a popular talk show, see a pro wrestling related Tweet or Instagram from celebrity, hear an ad for matches advertised for an upcoming WWE event, or anything else pro wrestling related that\u2019d be of interest to our readers.
