WrestleMania is an annual occasion that’s placed on by the WWE (World Wrestling Leisure). It’s the greatest present of the yr for the corporate, which in flip is the most important in skilled wrestling. Since 2020, WrestleMania has performed out as a two-night occasion. The WWE tends to order its highest-profile match-ups – and in some circumstances, its highest-profile stars – for WrestleMania.

For instance, WWE star-turned-actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson will characteristic on Night time 1 this yr, in his first WWE match for eight years. His final match was a six-second win over Erick Rowan, as Johnson set a report for the shortest match in WrestleMania historical past. Within the run-up to WrestleMania 40, The Rock has been closely concerned within the WWE’s weekly episodic tv, for the primary time since his rivalry with John Cena concluded at WrestleMania 29 in 2013.

The principle occasion of evening one sees Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson competing absolutely in WWE for the primary time in 11 years, as he groups together with his ‘cousin’ Roman Reigns to face Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. If The Rock and Reigns win, the latter’s Common Championship defence in opposition to Rhodes – the principle occasion of evening two – can be ‘something goes’, which means loads of weapons and interferences.

Elsewhere on evening one, Rhea Ripley defends the Ladies’s World Championship in opposition to fellow megastar Becky Lynch, whereas record-breaking Intercontinental Champion Gunther places his title on the road in opposition to Sami Zayn. There may also be a six-team ladder match for the Undisputed Tag-Workforce Titles, and brothers Jimmy and Jey Uso will go face to face in a match years within the making.

Comply with alongside for all of the build-up to the matches, adopted by dwell updates and outcomes.
