If you were planning to watch WrestleMania 42 at a bar in Las Vegas, you might need to make new plans. According to Fightful Select, a new policy is restricting businesses within a 50-mile radius of the event from airing the broadcast, even if they are willing to pay the licensing fee. The move is reportedly designed to drive ticket sales for the live event at Allegiant Stadium.
Local Backlash
Sources claim that many establishments are frustrated by the decision, as watch parties had already been planned and talent booked for appearances. One source noted that the policy contradicts the goal of boosting local tourism, effectively shutting out fans who cannot attend the show in person. With ticket sales reportedly moving slower than expected, this aggressive strategy appears to be a direct attempt to force fans into the stadium.
