The Grandest Stage Awaits: An Unprecedented Main Event Mystery
WrestleMania 42 seems a far-off fantasy, but it is extremely unusual that both nights have no set main event. Usually, by this stage, one of the clash heads at least starts to be formed. But this year the terrain is broad and the speculation is all the more exciting–and honestly speaking, somewhat confusing.
Reigning Champions: Who Stands in Their Path?
The current champions hold their gold tight, but their challengers for the biggest show of the year are nowhere in sight.
Seth Rollins: The World Heavyweight Conundrum
Raw World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins is heavily expected to come into WrestleMania 42 with his title in hand. However, the issue of who will come forward to confront him is a puzzling one. Whereas the name of Roman Reigns is always mentioned in such contexts, the arena of Rollins feels barely scripted, and the audience is left to speculate.
Cody Rhodes: The Undisputed Riddle
In the SmackDown, Cody Rhodes is the Undisputed WWE Champion, just after his summer-long battle with John Cena. At this point, when one big rivalry is over, the big question is, who’s next does The American Nightmare? And, maybe, will he keep his illustrious title all the way to WrestleMania? It is nail-biting time for the champion.
Matt Hardy’s Revolutionary Vision: Cross-Promotional Dream Picks
Enter Matt Hardy. In the latest episode of The Extreme Life of Matt Hardy, the long-time wrestler presented his bold predictions of the main events of WrestleMania 42. What is unique about his picks? He is considering cross-promotional of the two and imagining the conflicts that would cross-company lines and shake the industry.
A Clash for the Ages: Cody Rhodes vs. CM Punk
In the case of Cody Rhodes, Hardy suggests changing the name to CM Punk, which would certainly create a fire in the world of wrestling.
How would you say, at Wrestlemania 42, would you do a Cody vs CM Punk? Hardy mused. The bigger than that would be harder to get in reality.
Just think of the hype, the rich tradition, and the very pure, raw anarchy that this dream match would cause. The internet would surely crash, and an expectation would be of titanic proportions in such a high-profile contest.
A Star is Born? Seth Rollins vs. Jacob Fatu
The choice Hardy made of Seth Rollins is also surprising, but bold: Jacob Fatu, the mighty “Samoan Werewolf.”
Hardy discussed his idea of the rise of Fatu: “Perhaps have him get the Rumble, Rumble, or Elimination Chamber. Get him lined off for this contest and simply take him a test, find out where he stands.
This situation offers a new front to a mammoth prime time, a huge risk that may well hurl Fatu into the stratosphere, or turn into a monumental ordeal by fire. The possibility of an unbelievable, dramatic moment is indisputable.
Sin City’s Second Act: WrestleMania 42 Returns to Vegas
Beyond the in-ring matchups, WrestleMania 42 itself is set to make a grand return to Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. This marks an unprecedented second consecutive year for Sin City to host the “Showcase of the Immortals,” a change from original plans that reportedly had New Orleans as the intended venue. Get ready for another show-stopping spectacle in the heart of Vegas!
Our Verdict: Are Hardy’s Picks ‘Broken’ Genius or Pure Madness?
Matt Hardy’s suggestions are nothing short of wonderfully ‘Broken’ – a testament to his creative genius. A Cody vs. Punk showdown would not only “break the internet” but likely shatter every existing wrestling record. The interwoven storylines are practically self-writing, guaranteeing unparalleled crowd reactions.
The Seth Rollins vs. Jacob Fatu proposal is a far bolder roll of the dice. Fatu’s talent is immense, but propelling him into a WrestleMania main event against Rollins, especially after a Royal Rumble or Elimination Chamber victory, is a monumental statement. It would be a true test of his main event readiness, and if successful, would be an absolutely incredible moment.
What truly excites us is the very notion of TNA or AEW talent being considered for WWE’s biggest stage. It elevates WrestleMania beyond a single promotion’s flagship event, transforming it into a genuine spectacle that transcends the wrestling landscape.
What Are Your WrestleMania 42 Predictions?
So, wrestling fans, what do you think? Is Matt Hardy onto something revolutionary, or has he ventured too far into his ‘Broken’ mind once again? Share your thoughts and predictions for WrestleMania 42!
