Last week, a report from the Melbourne Herald Sun indicated WWE had booked the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in Australia for a massive event in October. It is believed the MCG could fit 100,000 fans for such an event.
The deal is said to have been finalized awhile ago but WWE wants to hold off on publisizing it too much. The company is expected to ramp up promotion for the event following WrestleMania.
A recent report from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter revealed some new details about the planned show.
When publicity for the event begins to ramp up, it is believed Ronda Rousey will play a central role in it. Rousey famously lost the UFC women’s bantamweight championship to Holly Holm at the Etihad Stadium in Melbourne. Attendance for that event was listed at 56, 214.
According to the Observer, the current idea is for this to be a PPV event which will air on the Network. This has not been confirmed, however.
