The WWE will be coming to Arizona State's Mullett Arena as part of an initiative between the organization and the Big 12.

The WWE brand has crossed over with the Big 12 Conference in multiple ways the past few seasons, including top stars from WWE taking part in Big 12 Conference championship games at AT&T Stadium in Arlington by awarding the game’s Most Outstanding Player his own custom WWE championship title.

Big 12 football and the WWE are expanding on their partnership, bringing SmackDown to select markets on the eve of marquee football games.
