WWE announces month for Perth PLE, John Cena’s final match in Australia
While WWE’s return to Perth, Australia, for a premium live event this year was already known, the show now has both a month and its first major star confirmed in John Cena.
Announced during Sunday’s WrestleMania 41, WWE will head to Perth in October with the exact date still to be revealed later this month. The PLE will be sandwiched by SmackDown on Friday and Raw on Monday, all at the RAC Arena with pre-sale signups available now via a QR code in the video below.
Appearing for his final time in the country as an active wrestler will be Cena, possibly in tow with the WWE Championship he competes for in the main event of Sunday’s show.
The show is part of a multi-event deal the local government signed with TKO in February.
WWE last held a PLE in the country in February 2024 with Elimination Chamber from Perth’s outdoor stadium, drawing an announced 52,590. It was their first show in the country since 2018.
