WrestleMania 40, the biggest event in sports entertainment, is set to take over Philadelphia’s Lincoln Financial Field on April 6 and 7 in 2024. Tickets will be available for sale starting this Friday. The announcement has created a buzz among fans, and WWE superstar Cody Rhodes has been busy spreading the word about the upcoming extravaganza.
Rhodes, also known as The American Nightmare, is no stranger to the nerves that come with performing in front of a large crowd. As the son of WWE legend Dusty Rhodes, he feels both pressure and responsibility to live up to his father’s legacy. Rhodes hopes to have a shot at the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 40, but he remains tight-lipped about his potential participation.
In an interview with Action News’ reporter TaRhonda Thomas, Rhodes expressed his excitement for the event and reminisced about his favorite moment in Philadelphia. A decade ago, the Philadelphia fans embraced Rhodes during a fight at Wells Fargo, making it his favorite arena. He described it as a lightning in a bottle moment that captured the magic of the city.
WrestleMania not only brings joy to fans but also contributes significantly to the economy of the host cities. Rhodes mentioned that WrestleMania 39 in Los Angeles had an economic impact of $250 million. With WrestleMania 40 expected to be even bigger, Philadelphia is gearing up to reap the benefits of hosting this legendary event.
As tickets go on sale, fans eagerly await the opportunity to fill the seats at Lincoln Financial Field and create a truly unforgettable experience. Rhodes and his fellow WWE superstars are thrilled to perform in front of a passionate Philadelphia audience, hoping to hear thousands of fans screaming their names.
The article ends with the reminder that tickets for WrestleMania 40 will be available for purchase via Ticketmaster starting at 10 a.m. on Friday. Fans are encouraged to secure their tickets and be part of what promises to be an incredible two nights of wrestling madness.
