The Sprint Center hosted a live broadcast of World Wrestling Entertainment's Monday Night Raw and a taped-for-television SmackDown event in 2009.

2010 may be even better for Kansas City wrestling fans.

WWE has tentatively scheduled a pay-per-view event for July 18 at the Sprint Center.

If memory serves, the last WWE pay-per-view event in Kansas City was 2007's New Year's Revolution at Kemper Arena.

Nothing is set in stone, and tickets are not on sale yet. But Wikipedia lists the name of the event as the "King of the Ring," a tournament last won for William Regal in 2008.

It's no WrestleMania, but it's bigger than Raw and SmackDown.
