WWE had a “Breaking News Update” on the WWE Network that Wrestlemania 32 will happen on April 3, 2016 at the AT&T Stadium in Dallas, Texas. It was then officially announced during a press conference. Scott Stanford hosted the segment. He said the venue holds 100,000 fans, hinting that it could break the 93,173 record set at Wrestlemania III in Pontiac, Michigan.
Michael Cole then joined Stanford from the venue via Skype. He spoke about how everyone was excited about Wrestlemania coming to the area. Cole said everyone thinks that they will break 100,000 fans but it’s “up to the WWE Universe.” He said he went to the conference with Vince McMahon and that Vince and Stephanie are excited and understand how big the event is. Cole said that McMahon is a “student of history”, created the history of WWE and was told he couldn’t fill 93,000 fans at Wrestlemania III and did it and will do it again at Wrestlemania 32.
Mark Henry joined Cole. He said he was a Cowboys fan and to arrive at the Stadium was “overwhelming” because it’s his Graceland. When he heard they would do Wrestlemania there he said: “That would be the last one for me. There’s nothing bigger to me.” He said his friends will have to buy tickets because he has two kids to feed. Stanford then reviewed the social media reactions from WWE personalities.
