Welcome to the culmination of the biggest two-day event that professional wrestling puts on every year. That’s right, WrestleMania 41 goes down tonight (Sun., April 20, 2025) live from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.
WrestleMania 41 start time is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET / 4 p.m. PT (full details here).
The first night saw a bunch of title changes, an amazing live performance from Living Colour (Corey Glover’s voice at age 60 is still perfect), and some patented WWE drama that had fans clutching their heads in bewilderment at the rapidly unfolding stories.
