Walt Disney World in Florida will host WWE World, a two-day wrestling fan event at its ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex on Dec. 14 and 15, 2026, according to the Disney planning site Mickey Visit. John Cena is part of the lineup, and the second day carries an Avengers: Doomsday theme.

Tickets go on sale through Ticketmaster on Nov. 13 at 10 a.m. ET. A general presale opens a day earlier, on Nov. 12 at 10 a.m. ET.

What happens at the fan event

The ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex covers 260 acres of athletic fields and facilities inside the Disney resort, and many visitors never go there. For WWE World, the site will sell exclusive merchandise and set up photo and autograph sessions with WWE wrestlers.

Fans can also buy Avengers: Doomsday WWE gear at the event, including title belts. The same items will be sold on WWEShop.com and in some Disney retail stores.

Two TV specials tied to the dates

On Dec. 14, Monday Night Raw will air The John Cena Classic live from Walt Disney World on Netflix. It is the first edition of the show. Wrestlers from Raw and SmackDown will take on talent from WWE NXT, the company’s brand for newer performers, and Club WWE members will vote on the night’s top wrestler.

On Dec. 15, an Avengers: Doomsday edition of Worlds Collide will take place. That show brings together wrestlers from WWE, NXT and the Mexican promotion AAA, Lucha Libre Worldwide. Disney has not said how the film will be worked into the show or how viewers can watch it.

Avengers: Doomsday opens in theaters on Dec. 18, a few days after the event.

What it means for families planning a December trip

The event falls in the middle of Disney World’s busy holiday season, so families already heading to Orlando in mid-December could add it to a park itinerary. Families with young wrestling or Marvel fans will want to note the presale and general sale times, since the event lasts only two days.

Mickey Visit describes WWE World as the first event of its kind at the resort. It combines a live fan gathering with two televised shows and a movie tie-in in the same week.

Disney has not published ticket prices, age rules or whether a park ticket is needed to attend. Mickey Visit said fans can register in advance to get event updates before sales open.

Other Disney sports tie-ins

Disney-owned ABC and ESPN will broadcast the Super Bowl in February. To mark it, Disney released a clothing line that pairs each NFL team with a Disney character. Carolina Panthers gear, for example, uses Bagheera, the panther from The Jungle Book.
