NORTH JERSEY -- NJBiz.com posted news this afternoon that "New Jersey has lured WWE's WrestleMania event to MetLife Stadium, and Gov. Chris Christie will make an announcement about the April 2013 event Thursday at the sports complex."

Various venues were considered by World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE), according to the story. The story says that state officials expect 70,000 people to come to MetLife Stadium for the event.

A one-week fan festival at the Izod Center will lead up to it.

The website quotes a source as saying, "It's a big, big show, like a mini-Super Bowl."

The Super Bowl itself is expected to lure 150,000 people to the area in 2014.
