The annual WWE Survivor Series PLE is headed to a major American city, as announced by Triple H.

WrestleMania is the oldest annual WWE Premium Live Event (formerly known as a Pay-Per-View), with the 42nd edition taking place earlier this spring.

Survivor Series is the second-oldest WWE PLE, dating back to 1987, when Andre the Giant was the sole survivor in the main event.

That means the 40th annual Survivor Series PLE will take place this year, and the Chief Content Officer, Paul “Triple H” Levesque, announced on social media that it’s heading to Daikin Park in Houston, at the home of Major League Baseball’s Houston Astros.
