The tour will take place from March 14 to 31 and visit Barcelona, Dortmund, Hannover, Brussels, Bologna, Belfast, Nottingham, Glasgow, Vienna, Amsterdam and London.

The action will begin in Barcelona’s Olimpic Arena before dates at Westfalenhalle in Dortmund, Hannover’s ZAG Arena, Forest National in Brussels, Unipol Arena in Bologna, Belfast’s SSE Arena and Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham.

The tour will then go to OVO Hydro in Glasgow, O2 Arena in London, Vienna’s Wiener Stadthalle and Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam, before returning to London for the final leg.

It is billed as the Road to WrestleMania, with the flagship event set to take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on April 19 and 20.
