MetLife officials, who spent "more than a year" working with WWE to bring WrestleMania to the stadium, expect the event to draw 70,000 fans.

WrestleMania festivities will also take place in New Jersey as the IZOD Center will host Axxess and the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. WWE had initially planned to hold events in New York City but New Jersey state officials convinced them to hold everything in The Garden State.
