Roman Reigns, AJ Styles And Other WWE Stars React To The Big WrestleMania 36 Announcement
As noted, WWE announced on Wednesday that WrestleMania 36 will be a two-night event that airs from multiple locations. The big event will air via pay-per-view and the WWE Network on Saturday, April 4 and Sunday, April 5 at 7pm ET, with no crowd. One of the locations will be the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, but there's no word yet on the other locations. Former NFL star Rob Gronkowski will serve as the host for both nights. The event was moved from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa due to the coronavirus pandemic.
