This is all in an attempt to make WrestleMania 40 the biggest Mania event to date. WWE is pulling out all stops to ensure fans talk about this Mania for years to come. Many believe that this is WWE Axxess, now rebranded to WWE World. WrestleMania Axxess was the fan convention that the WWE held for four days during the Mania season.

WWE Axxess did undergo some changes in recent years. Superstore Axxess and WrestleMania Panels have gradually replaced the events. Superstore Axxess features a massive WWE merchandise shop, while Panels offers intimate live discussions with Superstars and Legends about their careers. With this year being the 40th celebration of The Grandest Stage of Them All, the WWE wanted to try something new to celebrate the WWE Wrestling Universe and its history.

Why this WrestleMania could be the biggest?

As the 40th edition of the longest-running professional wrestling event, it holds historical significance within the wrestling world. This is also the first WrestleMania after the UFC and WWE merger. This will be the first Mania under the TKO banner, not the McMahon family.

There are a number of massive storylines heading into this year’s Mania. The biggest is Cody Rhodes finishing his story against Roman Reigns. This was heightened by the inclusion of The Rock, Dwayne Johnson. Another massive storyline is the fate of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. There are a number of possibilities depending on who wins the Elimination Chamber match to become the #1 contender. What do you think about WWE World at WrestleMania? Are you excited?
