WrestleMania 42 stage reveal: See the setup for WWE's major event

LAS VEGAS — The stage is set for WrestleMania 42.

Wrestling is the main focus of WWE's major event, but right next to it is the presentation, and that's where the stage comes in. With WrestleMania in football stadiums, it allows WWE to put on a grand design that adds to the prestige of it all. A stunning design adds to the epic entrances featured in the two-day extravaganza, helping them become iconic relics that will be long be remembered.

Construction crews didn't have a lot of time to put this year's stage together, getting roughly just a week to put it up before the show. The limited time was no problem as WWE was able to get the stage together one day before WrestleMania began, allowing fans to take an early look.

WrestleMania 42 stage details

This year's stage is noticeably not as grand as it was at WrestleMania 41, when it featured a hotel-like design to pay homage to Las Vegas.

This year's setup takes inspiration from the WrestleMania 42 Night 1 theme, which features a post-apocalyptic branding.

It has two stands set up to the side of where the stars will emerge from. One new addition is the massive screen behind the stage. USA TODAY Sports can confirm what the stage looks like after seeing it tested inside Allegiant Stadium earlier in the day, and a new addition are seats pressed against the set, the closest people will be allowed to sit.
