Detroit Sports Commission sets the record straight.
There was speculation online on Wednesday that Detroit was in the process of making a bid to host WrestleMania 43. The speculation started when a Reddit poster said they heard "on local radio" that Detroit was making a bid. No radio station was ever cited.
The Detroit Sports Commission denied the speculation, issuing the following statement to the Detroit News:
“Contrary to recent speculation, the DSC is not currently in the process of preparing a bid to host WrestleMania in 2027. However, we remain enthusiastic about the prospect of hosting future major WWE events.
“The Detroit Sports Commission values its strong relationship with WWE and is proud to have hosted some of their premier events across the Metro Detroit region. The DSC consistently evaluates opportunities and actively pursues bids for potential future events, leveraging our longstanding relationships with national governing bodies, sanctioning bodies, and event owners.
"We look forward to continuing our successful partnership with WWE and welcoming more thrilling events to our vibrant city in the years to come.”
Detroit hosted WrestleMania 3 and WrestleMania 23.
