Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, has thrown his name among the mix of people hoping to see WrestleMania come to the UK capital city.

Khan, no relation to WWE's Nick or AEW's Tony, made his bold claim while on the campaign trail ahead of the mayoral election on May 2. The 54-year-old Labour Party member brought up WWE's flagship show in a press release when speaking about London's potential as a sporting juggernaut.

"I'm determined to go even further and fully cement London's reputation as the undisputed sports capital of the world. I believe that London has the potential to host the first international WrestleMania."

Khan's comment earned a response from WWE Chief Content Officer Paul 'Triple H' Levesque who was seemingly interested in discussing the matter further.



Khan is hardly alone in his belief that the UK is deserving of a WrestleMania. At WWE Money in the Bank 2023, John Cena made a surprise appearance in London and shared his mission to bring WrestleMania to the city.
