WrestleMania is the biggest night of WWE's year and has been building to a match featuring superstars Ronda Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Becky Lynch.
History will be made for fans of World Wrestling Entertainment this Sunday, when for the first time the main event of its showpiece pay-per-view will be an all-female affair.
WrestleMania is WWE's most valuable pay-per-view worth over $200 million, which gives it a greater brand value than Major League Baseball . However, WWE as a whole is worth at least 10 times that, with some estimates suggesting it could be more like $3 billion. Financially WWE is in a very healthy position, even before this weekend's event. In the fourth quarter of 2018 it reported revenue of $272 million, which was an increase of 29%. It also announced a rise in subscribers to its WWE Network streaming service as well, rising by 7% to 1.59 million.
