WrestleMania 42 is set to electrify Las Vegas as WWE brings its largest annual spectacle back to the heart of Sin City.

Allegiant Stadium will play host to this year’s “Showcase of the Immortals,” promising two nights of high-octane wrestling action. The excitement kicks off with a highly anticipated grudge match on Night 1, where Randy Orton will go head-to-head with Cody Rhodes for the coveted Undisputed WWE Championship. Meanwhile, the grand finale on Sunday night features a compelling showdown between fierce adversaries, as CM Punk seeks to defend his World Heavyweight title against the formidable Roman Reigns.

The lineup is packed with thrilling encounters, including a clash for the WWE Women’s Championship between Jade Cargill and Rhea Ripley.
