The Chief Content Officer of WWE gives his thoughts.

There was a moment during Night 2 of WWE WrestleMania 40 where the attendance at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania was announced at 72,755 for a two-day total of 145,298 fans.

Those numbers are eye-popping, no doubt, but were they enough to call WrestleMania 40 the biggest WrestleMania of all time?

WWE Chief Content Officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque believes they are and he gave several more reasons during the event’s post press conference late Sunday night.

“I do feel like after watching that this was the biggest WrestleMania of all time,” Levesque told a pool of reporters.

“We set records this week for social media by far. We set records for merchandise by far. We set records for sponsorship by far. And just destroyed records for gates. This was, legitimately, on every metric, the biggest WrestleMania of all time.”

He added moments later: “I don’t know how to say it any more than that but this was just the biggest WrestleMania of all time. And now that it’s here and sort of over with, it’s sort of all sinking in with me.”

His wife, Stephanie McMahon, kicked off Night 2 of the event by declaring this “the Paul Levesque Era” in WWE.

Well, the period is off to a solid start.
