SLAYER are rumored to be making a surprise live appearance at WrestleMania 41. According to recent reports, WWE is exploring the possibility of having the legendary band perform a live entrance for Damian Priest during his highly anticipated match against Drew McIntyre on Night Two of the event.
While still unconfirmed, the rumor gains traction from the fact that Priest is set to host SLAYER’s only scheduled headlining U.S. concert in 2025, taking place on September 20 at Hersheypark Stadium. With this connection in place, speculation is mounting that WWE could bring SLAYER into the fold for what would be a historic crossover between metal and wrestling’s grandest stage.
For their only U.S. East Coast appearance in 2025, SLAYER has announced a special headlining concert at the 30,000-capacity Hersheypark Stadium in Hershey, PA on Saturday, September 20, 2025.
Joining SLAYER at the show will be a powerful lineup including KNOCKED LOOSE, SUICIDAL TENDENCIES, POWER TRIP, and two special sets: CAVALERA performing the album Chaos A.D. in its entirety, and EXODUS performing their iconic album Bonded By Blood.
SLAYER‘s 2025 concert dates are as follows:
