It’s perhaps the one thing at WrestleMania more highly anticipated than the action: the stage reveal.
One of the things that makes WrestleMania such an illustrious event is the grand stage where stars emerge from. Thanks to it being held in NFL stadiums, WWE has the space to build out intricate stages that typically pay homage to the city it’s being held in, and they usually deliver each year with a set that wows fans watching at home and inside the venue.
It’s such an anticipated thing to see, wrestling fans try to get as many leaks as they can of it being built, and while WrestleMania 42 is a week away, this year is different since there haven’t been many photos of what the stage will look like. Why is that?

WrestleMania 42 stage update
Normally, the stage construction begins weeks before WrestleMania. However, this year only has a week to build.
The reason is because of the schedule at Allegiant Stadium. Bruno Mars kicked off The Romantic Tour at the venue on April 10 and 11, meaning WWE had to wait until the shows concluded to begin the set up. After Mars finished his two shows, it gave the production crew roughly a week to make the stage.
It’s an extremely small window that puts the pressure to get it done on time, and given how extravagant WrestleMania stages are, it raises questions if this year’s look can be just as massive.
WrestleMania 42 stage photos, leaks
Construction is already well underway at Allegiant Stadium, with some photos shared on social media revealing the work is ongoing.
When will WrestleMania 42 stage reveal happen?
There is no set date or time for when the WrestleMania 42 stage will officially be revealed, but given the tight schedule to make it and previous years, it’s likely WWE released it on Friday, April 17, one day before WrestleMania begins.
Leaks and photos of stage construction can pop up on social media as the week goes, giving fans a better look at what to expect when the stage is finished.
