At the MITB press conference, Triple H came clean on the feasibility of the WWE hosting WrestleMania at London. As far as WrestleMania goes, it’s tough. I wish it was that easy. I wish it was as easy to say as, ‘Like, man, that’s phenomenal there. Let’s go.’ We’d be going to a lot of places,” he said.

But the 53-year-old also added that the promotion is looking to expand its reach and one should never say never. So, there’s still a chance that Cena gets to have his wish fulfilled.
