The excitement for WWE WrestleMania 40 Night 1 has reached its peak as the main event has been officially confirmed, promising a sensational return to the ring for none other than The Rock.
Amidst the twists and turns in WWE programming, The Rock, also known as ‘The Great One,’ took a surprising turn by aligning himself with The Bloodline after being revealed as the latest addition to the TKO board.
This move set the stage for a potentially epic main event at WrestleMania 40, pitching The Rock against Roman Reigns for the Undisputed WWE Universal Heavyweight Championship.
However, Cody Rhodes, winner of January’s Men’s Royal Rumble, threw a curveball during the WrestleMania 40 Press Conference, asserting that he would be facing Roman for the title to “finish his story.”
The subsequent weeks witnessed intense verbal exchanges on the microphone between The Rock, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Seth Rollins.
The culmination of these dramatic developments was revealed on the latest episode of WWE SmackDown, where the Night 1 Main Event of WrestleMania XL was officially confirmed as a colossal tag team match: The Rock and Roman Reigns versus Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins.
In a surprising twist, Dwayne Johnson disclosed on the same SmackDown episode that if Cody fails to defeat Roman in the Night 2 main event of WrestleMania 40, where the World title is on the line, he would be barred from challenging for the title ever again.
The anticipation for these high-stakes matchups has skyrocketed, and fans are eagerly awaiting the unfolding drama at WrestleMania 40.
The road to this historic event has been filled with unexpected alliances, challenges, and ultimatums, making it a must-watch for wrestling enthusiasts around the globe.
