WrestleMania week has been a record-setting one for WWE.
On April 1, Triple H announced that the April 1 episode of WWE Raw, which was held at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, was set to record the largest domestic gate in the history of the show.
Likewise, on April 5, Triple H took to Twitter/X to announce that Friday's taping of WWE SmackDown, which was held at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was the highest-grossing show in SmackDown history. The April 5 taping was the WrestleMania go-home show, and it was followed by the WWE Hall of Fame ceremony.
Another day, another record set on the Road to #WrestleMania XL.
