TABLE OF CONTENTS - JUMP TO:
🔎 Page-wide methodology: Primary wrestler records use official WrestleMania main-card matches, and career totals merge alternate WWE character identities when they represent the same performer. Section-specific exceptions, counting rules and pre-show-inclusive notes appear beside the records they affect.

* This appearance leaderboard includes official Kickoff/pre-show matches where applicable for completeness. The win/loss records below remain main-card-only unless specifically noted.
Match-record scope: Kickoff, pre-show and dark matches are excluded from the primary leaderboards. Official main-card battle royals count; Kickoff and pre-show battle royals do not. WWE's WrestleMania 42 roundup includes the John Cena/Danhausen interaction with The Miz and Kit Wilson among its results links, but WWE's detailed Sunday page presents it as a WrestleMania moment rather than a formal match, so it is excluded from match totals.

Active-record note: One-match perfect records are listed separately because another WrestleMania appearance can immediately change them. This is not intended as an exhaustive list of every 1-0 celebrity or one-time participant.
WrestleMania Main Event Records
Main-event methodology: "Main event" means the final official match of each WrestleMania night, not every match WWE promoted as a main event. The two-night era therefore creates two night-closing matches per edition. At WrestleMania IX, the impromptu Hulk Hogan vs Yokozuna championship match is counted because it was the final official match; Bret Hart vs Yokozuna remains noted as the scheduled championship main event immediately before it.

Calculation uses the calendar-year difference between each wrestler's first and latest night-closing WrestleMania match.
Main Event Match Formats
Format note: The WrestleMania 31 closing match is counted as a Triple Threat because Seth Rollins' Money in the Bank cash-in officially converted Brock Lesnar vs Roman Reigns into a three-way match while it was in progress. Singles includes stipulation-based one-on-one matches such as Steel Cage, Iron Man, No Holds Barred and the Boneyard match.
Women's WrestleMania Main Events
WrestleMania 35 - 2019Ronda Rousey vs Charlotte Flair vs Becky Lynch became the first women's match to close WrestleMania. Lynch won the Winner Takes All match for the Raw and SmackDown Women's Championships.
WrestleMania 37 Night 1 - 2021Bianca Belair defeated Sasha Banks for the SmackDown Women's Championship. WWE identifies Banks and Belair as the first Black women to compete in a WrestleMania main event.
Through WrestleMania 42: 2 of the 49 night-closing matches (4.1%) have been women's matches.

WrestleMania IX note: Bret Hart vs Yokozuna was the scheduled WWF Championship main event. Yokozuna won the title, after which Hulk Hogan immediately challenged him and won an impromptu championship match. Because Hogan vs Yokozuna was the final official match on the show, it is the match used for this page's night-closing statistics.

Selected publicly reported WrestleMania gates. These are not a continuous year-by-year series because exact gate figures were not consistently published.
Values use the published figures summarized in the business table below. The 2023 total is a reported minimum and the 2024 total is approximate.
Business-record methodology: WWE-announced attendance, paid tickets, distributed tickets and turnstile counts are not interchangeable. Gate figures are gross ticket sales and have not been published consistently for every event. Traditional pay-per-view buys also stop being directly comparable after the WWE Network launched in 2014 and WrestleMania shifted toward subscription streaming.
WrestleMania 32 - Announced vs Turnstile AttendanceWWE announced 101,763 attendees. Fightful later reported a turnstile count of 80,709 obtained from the Arlington Police Department. The announced figure included personnel and was not a paid-attendance total.
WrestleMania XL - $38.5 Million GateWWE said the two-night gate increased 78% over WrestleMania 39. Pennsylvania commission data and Wrestlenomics reporting placed the combined total at approximately $38.5 million.
WrestleMania 42 - 106,072 Announced AttendanceWWE announced 106,072 attendees across the two nights at Allegiant Stadium and described the event as one of the highest-grossing in company history. WWE did not publish an exact gate total.
