Variety reports that ESPN will air classic WrestleMania events starting this Sunday at 7 p.m. eastern with WrestleMania 30 from April 2014.
ESPN will air different WrestleMania events for three Sundays. This is being done to fill their content schedule due to the outbreak of the coronavirus.
“This unique opportunity is a byproduct of the terrific working relationship we’ve enjoyed with WWE over the years and the unprecedented circumstances we all find ourselves in,” said Burke Magnus, executive vice president, programming, ESPN, in a prepared statement. “WrestleMania is one of the most popular global events in sports and entertainment and the spectacular content it provides will be a treat for fans.”
