WWE and The Walt Disney Company announced on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, that an Avengers: Doomsday-themed edition of Worlds Collide will take place on Tuesday, December 15, 2026, at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex near Orlando, Florida. The announcement came one day after John Cena revealed that the John Cena Classic will also be held at Disney World, and together the two events form a two-day takeover of the venue on December 14 and 15.
The Marvel-themed crossover was confirmed in a press release issued Tuesday morning, which framed the event as part of an expanded partnership between WWE and Disney built around the upcoming film Avengers: Doomsday. While the release establishes the date, location and Marvel branding of the event, it does not detail a match card, specific Superstars confirmed for the show, or how the Avengers: Doomsday theme will be incorporated into the in-ring presentation.
The pairing of the John Cena Classic and the Avengers-themed Worlds Collide on consecutive days positions the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex as the hub for a major WWE-Disney showcase weekend in mid-December. Cena’s announcement of his own event at Disney World appears to have directly preceded WWE’s confirmation of the Worlds Collide date, suggesting the two properties were coordinated as companion attractions rather than unrelated bookings.
Worlds Collide has previously served as a showcase for talent from WWE’s developmental and international brands, though the supplied announcement does not specify which rosters or titles will be featured in this Avengers: Doomsday edition. The Marvel branding marks a notable departure from prior iterations of the event, reflecting the broader scope of the WWE-Disney collaboration referenced in the press release.
WWE has not yet released ticket information, match announcements or further programming details for either the John Cena Classic on December 14 or the Avengers: Doomsday-themed Worlds Collide on December 15. Further specifics are expected as the December dates approach.
