WrestleMania 42 weekend brought plenty of people together. The event, held in Philadelphia this year, is also joined by other events where wrestling fans gather.

WrestleCon 2026, held in Las Vegas, featured several high-profile names from the industry. AEW star Tommaso Ciampa and WWE Hall of Famer Kurt Angle were among the big names at the event.

Another former WWE talent attended the convention and went viral after a fight that took everyone by surprise. Big Vito, a WWE superstar between 2005 and 2007, got into it with a fan who talked too much online.
