WWE’s biggest show of the year, WrestleMania 41, is almost here. Set to take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, the event will feature the culmination of WWE’s top storylines—built through the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, and beyond.
The majority of the card appears to be in place. Main title matches and each night’s main event have been announced, along with several undercard bouts.
It’s headlined by John Cena challenging Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship, following Cena’s shocking heel turn at Elimination Chamber. The match is part of Cena’s retirement run and his quest to break Ric Flair’s world title record—with one final WrestleMania main event to make it happen. It doesn’t get bigger than this, so all eyes will be on this match during the second night of the show.
As for the first night, it won’t be headlined by a world title match, but rather a high-stakes triple threat between CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins. These are three of the biggest names in the industry going head-to-head, and while no championship is on the line, the drama has been amplified by Paul Heyman—now in Punk’s corner as part of a long-awaited favor. Meanwhile, Rollins has called in his own favor from the Wise Man in the lead-up to the Show of Shows, setting the stage for a theatrical main event that’s sure to keep fans on the edge of their seats.
Tiffany Stratton vs. Charlotte Flair for the WWE Women’s Championship is one of WrestleMania’s top matches, but it’s recently been overshadowed by controversy. During a promo segment on SmackDown earlier this month, things went off the rails as both women made pointed remarks about each other’s relationship status. The feud has taken a personal turn, adding even more intrigue to what kind of match they’ll deliver on the WrestleMania stage.
Meanwhile, Iyo Sky shocked the WWE Universe by capturing the Women’s World Championship on Raw earlier in WrestleMania season. Now, she heads into Sin City as the reigning titleholder, set to defend her championship in a star-studded triple threat match against Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair. It has the potential to be one of the best-wrestled matches of the entire weekend.
These are the headliners, but more matches are expected to be announced for WrestleMania 41. In the meantime, here’s the current schedule for each night so you’ll know when to catch your most anticipated matches of the weekend.
