The Road to WrestleMania ends this weekend as the biggest WWE show of the year touches down in Las Vegas. WrestleMania 42 takes place in Sin City’s Allegiant Stadium for the second year in a row and spans two nights: Saturday and Sunday.
There is a lot on the line at this year’s WrestleMania with a plethora of major storylines getting their due on the main stage. CM Punk defends his World Heavyweight Championship title against the Original Tribal Chief, Roman Reigns. Randy Orton took the John Cena route and turned heel, and has targeted former bestie Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship.
Speaking of John Cena, the recently retired WWE superstar won his 17th championship at last year’s WrestleMania. He will return to professional wrestling’s biggest show of the year — but this time, he’ll be the host of the entire shebang. You’ve gotta wonder if he’ll raise that hand to the sky, one more time.
There’s so much more where that comes from. Read on for more info on WrestleMania 42 and how to watch.
