WWE Considers Hosting Premium Live Event in Mexico for 2026

WWE is considering a Premium Live Event in Mexico for 2026, following Bad Bunny’s speculation about Backlash. WrestleVotes confirmed internal discussions about the event, highlighting WWE’s focus on exploring international opportunities to maximize revenue.

Earlier this year, speculation regarding WWE’s potential event in Mexico intensified after Bad Bunny hinted that the Backlash event might be held there. However, his statement lacked specific details about the date or venue, which was later clarified that WWE did not have plans to host Backlash in Mexico at that time.

Nevertheless, this comment ignited fan interest about WWE’s return to the country for a major event. Reports from WrestleVotes suggested that WWE is indeed considering the possibility of a Premium Live Event (PLE) in Mexico in 2026.

In a recent Q&A on SportsKeeda’s Backstage Pass, WrestleVotes discussed ongoing conversations within WWE, revealing that the idea of a PLE in Mexico is a significant topic among executives. They stated, “Mexico has been discussed heavily. I do not know if it is official… WWE is going to go where they make the most money. Internationally has been selling out just as much as domestic.”

Although there are no confirmations yet, WWE is actively exploring international events, with Mexico emerging as a potential site for future shows.

In summary, while Bad Bunny’s earlier remarks were misconstrued as a confirmation for WWE’s Backlash in Mexico, they have nonetheless sparked serious discussions about hosting a Premium Live Event in the country in 2026. WrestleVotes indicated that WWE’s interest in Mexico reflects a broader strategy to capitalize on international markets, underscoring the potential for future high-profile events in the region.
