WWE Unveils Original Plans for WrestleMania 42 Main Event
The preparations for WWE WrestleMania 42 are beginning to take shape, with emerging insights into the anticipated main event. Reports from Dave Meltzer of The Wrestling Observer suggest that the upcoming Men’s WarGames match at Survivor Series will hint at the WrestleMania 42 main event.
Current Match Lineup for Survivor Series
In the Men’s WarGames match, a powerhouse group known as The Vision will face a formidable alliance. The participants include:
- Brock Lesnar
- Logan Paul
- Drew McIntyre
- Bronson Reed
- Bron Breakker
This group will battle the Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and The Usos inside the cage.
Shifts in WrestleMania Plans
Initially, there were plans for Seth Rollins to be part of the WrestleMania 42 main event. However, his recent injury at WWE Crown Jewel has shifted the narrative. Meltzer indicated that the original scenario was for Roman Reigns to face Rollins for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
Impact of Seth Rollins’ Injury
Seth Rollins was on a significant trajectory within WWE before his shoulder injury, which required surgery after his bout against Rhodes in Australia. His injury has led to speculation that Reigns may instead contend with either Cody Rhodes, whom he has faced previously at WrestleMania, or CM Punk.
Future Prospects
Though there is a possibility of Rollins returning in time for WrestleMania 42, his absence may leave the main event in a state of flux. The creative direction for his character now appears uncertain, leaving fans eager for updates as Survivor Series approaches.
Conclusion
As WWE ramps up for WrestleMania 42, fans are left wondering what the main event will entail. The outcome of the Men’s WarGames match at Survivor Series will likely provide crucial clues about the direction WWE plans to take.
