Minnesota makes its bid.
The Star Tribune reports that Minnesota has submitted its bid to host WrestleMania 41. The event would take place at U.S. Bank Stadium.
Wendy Blackshaw, MNSE's president and chief executive officer, said, "We are hopeful, and I hope we get it. It would be amazing."
Fightful Select published the following report regarding Minnesota and WrestleMania in July 2023:
Fightful Select has learned that Minneapolis has been heavily discussed within the company as a possible and even likely location for WrestleMania 41 in 2025. Minneapolis city planners had actually leaked this news to local media, but when Fightful asked WWE officials months ago, they confirmed that Minneapolis was one of several cities that had interest. There were reps on behalf of the city who were at Sofi Stadium for WrestleMania 39.
We’re told that U.S. Bank Stadium would be the location, as temperature and baseball season could prevent the possibility of Target Field. U.S. Bank stadium has a dome, and seats well over 73,000 for Minnesota Vikings football games. WWE told us that they view U.S. Bank Stadium as a world class venue, and have heard that they're getting more aggressive in getting non-Vikings related events in the huge stadium.
There was a situation a few years ago where some involved with the city cost themselves a shot at WrestleMania, by leaking that the show was going to be there.
Fightful will update fans on the location of WrestleMania 41 when more information is known.
