The Orlando Business Journal is reporting that the Orange
County Commissioners on Tuesday approved millions in a budget
to lure WWE and UFC events to the city.
$18 million out of the $29.46 million requested are going to
the Greater Orlando Sports Commission to drive Orlando’s bids
in securing multiple WWE events, including WrestleMania in
2031.
Greater Orlando Sports Commission President and CEO Jason
Siegel added that the commission is “in the process of bidding
on the events and the WWE is in conversation with roughly two
dozen other cities on various events.”
