WrestleMania 40 looms on the horizon, and all eyes are on Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch as they gear up for what promises to be an epic showdown at The Grandest Stage of Them All. Despite their status as WWE’s power couple, only one of them will claim the coveted main event spot at the show.
Rollins and Lynch have been embroiled in intense feuds with top superstars on the Road to WrestleMania 40. Rollins appears poised for a tag team bout alongside Cody Rhodes against formidable opponents The Rock and Roman Reigns. Meanwhile, Lynch is rumored to square off against Rhea Ripley for the Women’s World Championship. While both matchups are tantalizing, only one can take center stage at the mega event.
Signs point to Rollins featuring in the other main event at WrestleMania 40. The company’s event trailer provides a compelling hint, depicting Rollins and Rhodes aligned against Reigns and The Rock.
There’s also concern surrounding Rollins’ current injury status. Although he has assured fans of his imminent medical clearance ahead of WrestleMania, there’s speculation he may require assistance during the match.
Additionally, WrestleMania 40 could mark Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson’s first full-length match in over a decade, necessitating an adjustment period before stepping into a singles bout.

Even the real-life couple, Lynch and Rollins, are keenly aware of the competitive landscape ahead. Despite their renowned competitive streaks, Lynch views their rivalry as a positive force.
In an interview with Fightful’s Sean Ross Sapp, Lynch acknowledged their “happy competition,” expressing support for Rollins’ potential main event spot while also harboring her own aspirations for headlining The Show of Shows.
As for other potential headlining matches, only two have been confirmed for WrestleMania 40: Cody Rhodes vs. Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship and Bayley vs. IYO SKY for the WWE Women’s Championship. However, fans have voiced support for the former Damage CTRL members to headline the marquee event.
With speculation rife and anticipation building, WrestleMania 40 promises to deliver high-octane action and unforgettable moments, whether Rollins, Lynch, or another set of superstars ultimately claim the main event spotlight.
