The American wrestling event WrestleMania could be held in London under Sadiq Khan’s plans to bring more big sporting events to the capital. He has also pledged to campaign for the return of NBA basketball games to “fully cement London’s reputation as the undisputed sports capital of the world”, and has a “longer-term ambition” to bring the Superbowl to London for the first event outside of the US. Mr Khan will set up a taskforce to attract more US sports if he is re-elected mayor next week.
Mr Khan said: “I believe that London has the potential to host the first international WrestleMania.” Mr Khan also said he was committed to restoring Crystal Palace national sports centre to its former glory. He wrote in his manifesto: “I will complete its renovation, turning it into Britain’s first zero carbon major sports centre, and I’ll also work with partners to deliver the restoration of the famous Crystal Palace athletics stadium.”
