Okay, so yesterday I was chilling, right? And my buddy texts me, all hyped up about WrestleMania. He’s like, “Dude, you watching WrestleMania?” And I’m thinking, “Yeah, maybe, if I have time.” But then he hits me with, “It’s starting soon! You gotta get ready!”

That’s when I realized I had no clue what time WrestleMania even started. I felt like a total noob. So, first thing I did, I grabbed my phone and straight up googled “what time does wrestlemania start”. No messing around.
Boom. First few results popped up. I saw some articles, some wrestling news sites. I scanned through a couple, looking for a clear answer. You know how it is, sometimes those articles are all fluff.
I noticed most were saying it usually kicks off around 8 PM Eastern Time. But then I saw one that mentioned a pre-show beforehand. So, I dug a little deeper.
- Went to the official WWE website. Figured they’d have the most accurate info.
- Checked their social media too – Twitter, Facebook. They’re always posting updates there.
Turns out, the pre-show starts an hour before the main card. So, 7 PM Eastern Time for the pre-show, and then 8 PM Eastern for the actual WrestleMania matches. Okay, cool.
Then I remembered my buddy lives on the West Coast. So, I had to do some quick math to figure out what time it would be for him. Eastern Time to Pacific Time…that’s a 3-hour difference, right?

So, 8 PM Eastern is 5 PM Pacific. Told him to tune in at 4 PM for the pre-show. He was stoked.
I even set a reminder on my phone so I wouldn’t forget. You know how life gets, you get distracted, and suddenly it’s halfway through the show. Not this time!
I ended up watching it with my buddy online. We were trash-talking and cheering the whole time. Good times. Definitely worth figuring out the start time.
