The annual spectacle is sure to deliver another amazing show in Las Vegas on Saturday and Sunday
The biggest wrestling event of the year is here. WrestleMania 41 lands in Las Vegas this week with13 matches currently scheduled for the two days of action at Allegiant Stadium. There’s sure to be plenty of massive headlines coming out of the shows with the pair of main events drawing tons of interest.
Night 1 of the event is headlined by a triple threat match between three of the biggest superstars on the main roster as Seth Rollins takes on CM Punk and Roman Reigns. The match serves as Punk’s first WrestleMania main event, a goal that had previously eluded him in his legendary career.
Saturday night also sees four titles at stake with some really interesting matchups. Most eyes will be on the opener when Gunther stakes his world heavyweight championship against Jey Uso. The feud really picked up recently when Gunther forced Jey to watch him beatdown and bloody his twin brother Jimmy while he was ziptied to the ring ropes. Another major title clash sees LA Knight stake the United States title against fast rising star Jacob Fatu. Plus, the WWE women’s championship is on the line when Tiffany Stratton takes on the legendary former titleholder Charlotte Flair.
The aspect of the show that has changed a bit over the years is when exactly it all starts. Starting with the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, WWE decided to adjust its formatting to accommodate the restrictions in place by breaking the event up in to two nights. That has now become the norm the last five years with events sprawled out instead of being compacted into one lengthy show.
Plus, there is always a pre-show to kick off the event. This year will be a little different as WWE has announced that show will be three hours long on both nights. Those shows are typically only an hour before the event begins. Plus, there will be a post-show and press conference that also air live on Peacock.
