Two of the biggest annual independent wrestling attractions during Wrestlemania weekend, GCW’s The Collective and WrestleCon, are coming together for a stretch of events in 2026.
The Collective and WrestleCon will present all of their festivities at The Horseshoe in Las Vegas, Nevada from April 15 to 19, per an announcement made on Thursday evening.
Years in the making…

The Horseshoe (formerly known as Bally’s) will play host to all of the wrestling events put on by The Collective, as well as the annual WrestleCon fan convention. While WrestleCon has used GCW’s venue to present its “SuperCard” event during the weekend before, the new announcement will be the first time both companies will present all of their programming under the same roof.
GCW’s Collective plays host to a large amount of the indie wrestling taking place during a Mania weekend. Earlier this year, the company presented 13 shows over the course of four days in Las Vegas, including collaborations with seven other promotions from around the world.
Details around specific events taking place during the weekend are likely not to be revealed for a while, as we’re still six months out from everything taking place.
