The head of the Greater Orlando Sports Commission hopes $18 million in tourist-tax money will help bring a series of WrestleMania and Ultimate Fighting Championship events to the City Beautiful beginning next year.

Orange County commissioners will decide Tuesday whether to go along. They will also consider a proposal to offer $11 million to the Jacksonville Jaguars to play their home schedule in Orlando in 2027 while their stadium is undergoing renovation — pushing the county’s potential investment in luring sports events to nearly $30 million.

If successful, the wrestling bid would begin to bear fruit next year with either WWE’s Survivor Series in November or Saturday Night’s Main Event in December at Kia Center and conclude in 2031 with WrestleMania 46, the marquee offering.

“WrestleMania is the crown jewel,” said Jason Siegel, president of the sports commission.

Siegel’s presentation last month wowed the Tourist Development Tax Sports Incentive Committee, earning a unanimous recommendation from the panel which offers its opinion to the county commission for the final say.

Orlando has hosted WrestleMania three times, most recently in 2020 when the COVID-19 pandemic limited the performance to a pay-per-view broadcast. Last year’s event, staged in Philadelphia, created an economic impact of more than $200 million, according to data provided to the Sports Incentive Committee by Visit Orlando.

The proposed events also include wrestling’s Survivor Series or Saturday Night’s Main Event in 2026, UFC pay-per-view fights in 2027 and wrestling’s Royal Rumble in 2028. WrestleMania will feature other events during a weeklong extravaganza in 2031, including a Hall of Fame ceremony and Raw and SmackDown shows.

The bid money, which is payable only if the events agree to come here, would be paid from tourist-development taxes, a 6% surcharge on the cost of hotel room rentals and other short-term lodgings. The tax, known as TDT, raised a record $359 million in fiscal year 2023-24 and is on a path to best that total this fiscal year.
