WWE fans in the United Kingdom have waited a long time for the region to host another pay-per-view (“premium live”) event. As it turns out, they might not have to wait much longer.
According to WrestleVotes, a WWE source says plans are underway to bring a major WWE show to Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales later this year.
The yet-to-be-named show would take place over Labor Day Weekend on Saturday, September 3rd. This is the same weekend that All Elite Wrestling typically holds the annual AEW All Out pay-per-view.
Principality Stadium is home to the Wales National Rugby Union team has a max capacity of approximately 78,000 people for boxing events.
A WWE UK PPV in September would mark the company’s 5th stadium show of the year following:
- Royal Rumble (The Dome at America’s Center in St. Louis)
- Elimination Chamber (Jeddah Superdome, Saudi Arabia)
- WrestleMania (AT&T Stadium, Dallas, TX)
- Money in the Bank (Allegiant Stadium, Paradise, Nevada)
