On July 25, WWE President Nick Khan and WWE Chief Content Officer Paul "Triple H" Levesque made a special trip across the pond to meet with Sadiq Khan, the Mayor of London. The objective of this meeting, which took place at London's City Hall, centered around the possibility of bringing WWE's biggest premium live event – WrestleMania – to England's capital city in the near future. Levesque and Sadiq have since provided a behind-the-scenes look at their initial discussions, indicating that they were highly encouraging.

The idea of a London-based WrestleMania was publicly raised by 16-time world champion John Cena at last year's WWE Money in the Bank event. Should this idea become a reality, it will mark the first ever WrestleMania event to be held outside of North America.
