Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins will take on The Rock and Roman Reigns to end Night 1 of WrestleMania 40 but the match has implications for Night 2.
WrestleMania 40 descends on Philadelphia beginning on Saturday night in what’s expected to be the biggest WWE premium live event in the company’s history. WrestleMania will take place at Lincoln Financial Field – the home of the Philadelphia Eagles. The weather is supposed to be cleared up after rain swamped the Northeast for much of the week. WWE’s chief content officer, Paul 'Triple H' Levesque, revealed the card for the first night of WrestleMania earlier in the week.
Here’s what fans can expect. Cody Rhodes & Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns & The Rock The path to the biggest tag-team match in WWE history was filled with jagged stones. Cody Rhodes won the Royal Rumble match for the second year in a row, conceivably setting up a rematch with Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 40 for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship.
Gunther vs. Sami Zayn Gunther has held the Intercontinental Championship for more than 400 days, but his reign could come to an end against a determined Sami Zayn. Both competitors had winning moments at WrestleMania 39, with Gunther defending his title against Sheamus and Drew McIntyre while Zayn and Kevin Owens won the Undisputed Tag Team Championship from The Usos.
Rey Mysterio & Andrade vs. Santos Escobar & Dominik Mysterio Rey and Dominik Mysterio had an epic match at WrestleMania 39 with the elder WWE legend taking out the member of The Judgment Day. It appeared that their feud was on the shelf as Rey was recovering from a torn meniscus and Dominik was trying to keep the Judgment Day together. But over the last few weeks, Dominik has aligned himself with Santos Escobar and the rest of Legado Del Fantasma. Rey returned to team with the LWO.
