It was the 34th annual WrestleMania and took place on April 8, 2018, at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana, held for wrestlers from the promotion's Raw, SmackDown, and 205 Live brand divisions. This was the second WrestleMania held at this venue after WrestleMania XXX in 2014 and the first to include the cruiserweight-exclusive 205 Live brand, albeit on the Kickoff pre-show, subsequently being the first to feature wrestlers from three brands since WrestleMania XXVI in 2010.
The card comprised 14 matches, including three on the Kickoff pre-show. In the main event, which was the main match of the Raw brand, Brock Lesnar retained the Universal Championship against Roman Reigns. The main match from SmackDown saw AJ Styles retain the WWE Championship against Shinsuke Nakamura. Other matches saw Ronda Rousey make her WWE debut and Daniel Bryan returned to the ring after nearly three years of absence due to concussions.
