As previously reported, WWE announced a new deal with the city of Indianapolis which will bring Wrestlemania, Royal Rumble and Summerslam there. The Rumble takes place in Indy on February 1. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter has more details on the deal, which is for more events than just the three previously noted.
The first date of the deal will be the Rumble. Meanwhile, both Summerslam and Wrestlemania will be two nights by the time they happen in Indianapolis. The deal runs from 2025 to 2032, and Indiana will pay WWE to run RAW, Smackdown, NXT and other live events there as part of that deal. This will include Indianapolis and other cities in the state, with regular shows in Fort Wayne and Evansville.
The specific dates for Summerslam and Wrestlemania have not been finalized yet as both sides are working together to determine logistical aspects like hotel room availability. RAW in Evansville on September 30 is also not part of the deal. WWE will also run multiple shows at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
