2 night WM during the Easter long weekend, and of course, 420 Easter in Vegas (the last 420 Easter in most of our lifetimes since the next one will be 2087).

4 matches announced so far. Typically we see 14-16 matches on the cards.

My best guesses at the remaining 10-12 matches:
Chelsea, Piper, Alba vs Michin & ??? (no US title defense for Chelsea, nobody else really seems built up enough to face her)

Lyra vs Becky (not based on rumors. No guarantee Becky's even back at all before WM, but if there was a time to return it's during the euro trip)

Bayley vs Roxanne

Orton vs Owens

Bron vs Sheamus vs Penta vs Gable vs Kaiser

AJ vs Logan

Creeds vs War Raiders

Dom vs Finn

Punk vs Rollins vs Reigns

MCMG vs LDF vs Pretty Deadly vs DiY vs Steeet Profits

Priest vs McIntyre

Fatu vs Solo

Naomi vs Jade

Despite that, there's so many names like Theory/Waller, New Day, Mysterio, Liv/Raquel, Melo/Miz, Braun, Jimmy, LA Knight, Nakamura, Bliss, Nia and others who aren't even on this card.

Probably see the Andre battle Royal on SD with most of those men in it? Or Fatu vs Solo doesn't happen and Fatu wins that battle royal?

And maybe then Raw after WM gets the women's battle royal (they haven't done it since 2019, but there's so many women on the roster/won't be on the card, you could do a battle royal where the winner gets to face the champ of their choosing at SNME)

For the main event, I imagine we'll get Cena come out with The Rock. Cody comes out alone, they do the ring announcement (this match is for the Undisputed blah blah blah) and right before they ring the bell, we hear the glass shatter.

Perfect time would've been WM40 having Austin come out. Undertaker really made no sense at all for that. Even HHH would've made more sense than Undertaker did.

But this year would work out well for him too. Isn't Austin's ranch somewhere in Nevada? Probably not too much out of his way to make it there. But if Cena doesn't win the title at WM (which if Austin is part of it, I think that'd mean Cody wins), I don't think he's winning until he does the villain redemption arc and probably ends his career winning #17.

Speaking of #17, if Cena wins is he a 17 or 18 time champ? Cody is technically still universal champ. But the second he loses I imagine the title lineage stops there, but would the guy who beats him be considered the final champ?

Re: WWE Wrestlemania 41 4/19/25 and 4/20/25

I only say that because Austin said

WrestleMania this year will be in Vegas, and I was doing an interview a while back, and I said that's like right here. If he needs another hand, I'll be there."

He originally said he'd help before the Cena turn, assuming he meant with The Rock in general. After the turn, he confirmed that his help is available.

That same article mentions how the original plan for WM 40 *was* Austin, but he didn't feel like travelling from Nevada to Philly, so they used Taker.

What I love about this Mania is I think there's a lot that is still not super predictable.

I'm always excited for WrestleMania, but this year they can really do some good stuff.

That's the good thing about it.

Of all the announced matches so far, if I was given an option to bet on the winner of any one match I want, I wouldn't know which to choose.

WM After Dark parties featuring the likes of Metro Boomin, MGK, Gronk and Valentino Khan.

And another "reading too much in to it", but the Usos being on the Saturday night party....does this mean Jeys showing up with the WHC?

Also, sounds like Sting is in Vegas for WM weekend. Not WWE related, just WrestleCon, but he's in the area...surely Tony will let him induct Luger?

AEW might want Sting for their milestone episode that same week when Dynamite passes Nitro in total episodes, so maybe they won't want him also appearing in WWE just days later?

Yeah I'm hoping that will be the case. It's the most fitting inductor/inductee outside of HBK/Stephanie inducting Triple H.

On a side note, looking at the guests meet & greet for WrestleCon, they have a ton of wrestlers. I know that it's mostly talent not signed to WWE but they got a solid lineup. May swing by there to get some photo ops. Mock Foley is doing a meet & greet at WWE World but it's cheaper to meet him at WrestleCon.

Even if AEW wants a deal with WWE, surely they can get something done.

It's like when WWE wanted Flair for the 4 horsemen HOF and he was in TNA.

They let TNA use Christian for a single show in exchange for getting Flair for the HOF.

Don't know what AEW would want in exchange.

Maybe WWE could work a deal to let a TNA talent appear on an AEW show?

Re: WWE Wrestlemania 41 4/19/25 and 4/20/25

Cody Rhodes vs John Cena for the WWE Championship and Jey vs Gunther for the World Title, will be the first Wrestlemania to feature World Title matches WITHOUT Roman Reigns or Brock Lesnar since Wrestlemania 30.

It's crazy to think how much Brock & Roman have been involved in the World Championship picture, whether against one another or other opponents.

Re: WWE Wrestlemania 41 4/19/25 and 4/20/25

9 matches announced so far.

With 2 weeks to go (really just 2 Raws and 1 SD), there's still a few matches to announce.

Priest vs McIntyre

New Day vs War Raiders

IC title match

Some match starring Chelsea and/or Secret Hervice

El Grande Americano vs Dragon Lee or Rey Mysterio in a mask vs mask match (probably makes sense if it's Dragon since Rey doing that seems pointless since he'd have way more to lose)

Street Profits vs MCMG (I know MCMG won, but it would've been better if we had a multi team match)

That brings the total to 15 which makes sense. At least one of the Women's match, mask vs mask and Street Profits vs MCMG could easily happen on the SD or Raw of WM weekend, but with no Orton vs KO, they'll probably need to fill time.

The IC Championship will be decided in a Fatal 4 Way Match as Bron Breakker defends against Penta, Dirty Dom & Finn Balor. Since it came from Adam Pearce himself you know one thing.... It is Official.

I said it before, Dom beats Finn to win the title, Finn the next night on Raw rounds up the Judgment Day together to kick Dom out of the group for betraying Finn like that, only for Dom and the newest Judgment Day member to kick Finn out themselves.

Edit-
Liv reveals she got Dom added to what would've been the triple threat......
