WrestleMania
Premier mat showcase
WrestleMania is the flagship annual professional wrestling event produced by WWE, held every spring since 1985.
It functions as wrestling's equivalent of the Super Bowl—the biggest spectacle of the year, featuring marquee matches and celebrity appearances.
The name has become shorthand for over-the-top theatrical excess: The product launch was pure WrestleMania.
