Wrestlemania has begun
Emotions are running high at Lincoln Financial Field because Wrestlemania 40 has begun.
IN A FEW MOMENTS WE'LL GET STARTED
In a couple of moments we will start with the broadcast of the biggest event in Wrestling, the showcase of the immortals, WRESTLEMANIA, corresponding to the 40th edition of the great WWE event.
WHAT'S NEXT FOR THE FINAL BOSS?
In a conversation with Marc Raimondi and Andrew Feldman on ESPN, The Rock shared his perspective on his involvement with TKO, stating that he still has a deep love for wrestling and will always be involved in the industry in different capacities. This offers clarity on his continuity and future roles, reassuring fans who were hoping for news on his involvement after WrestleMania 40.
"I'm not leaving the [TKO] board after WrestleMania. I'm still on the board, and I'll always be a part of it. And we're in this now. This is ours and it will always be ours."
A WRESTLEMANIA IN MEXICO?
The world's most iconic Mexican wrestler, Rey Mysterio, is spearheading efforts to bring the biggest wrestling event on the planet, WrestleMania, to Mexico in the near future. For him, this would be a historic and momentous moment, so significant that he would be willing to retire if he could get WrestleMania to be held at the Estadio Azteca.
"If we go to Mexico City for a WrestleMania, which, first of all God, yes we are going to do it, why don't we better do a race against race and also, if he wants, let the mask against scalp go there."
WWE DESERVES A NEW CHAMPION
Cody addressed hundreds of WWE fans at a pre-WrestleMania experience, and among his statements to build excitement for the showdown with Reigns, he made a significant promise. He vowed to become a champion that fans can enjoy not only during main events, but also on Mondays and Fridays on RAW and SmackDown.
How would you feel about a champion who does show up to wrestle? I don't detract from Roman Reigns, he is the greatest champion of our era, but WWE deserves someone who does appear before the Universe on Mondays and Fridays, not just once every few months," said The American Nightmare.
WHAT HAPPENED TO THE BUS?
Meanwhile, The American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes, was involved in an incident that perplexed his team. Through his social media, Rhodes shared the news that his shuttle bus suffered a fire during the early morning hours. The wrestler became aware of the incident with no information as to what or who may have caused the flames.
THE FINAL BOSS WITH MEXICAN FOOTWEAR
This Saturday, in the Day 1 main event of WrestleMania XL, The Final Boss will join Roman Reigns in a thrilling tag-team match against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins. But he'll also bring a little piece of Mexico to the ring at Lincoln Financial Field, as the patent leather boots he'll be sporting were created by the skilled hands of Jose G. Sanz.
"It was very exciting. It was a normal day and I got a message from Satah Ton and he tells me that the company (WWE) is looking for someone to work a pair of boots, but he needed me to be able to travel to the United States and be available to work."
WHERE CAN YOU WATCH WRESTLEMANIA?
In Mexico, you will be able to enjoy the live and exclusive broadcast of both nights of WrestleMania XL on FOX Sports Premium on television. In addition, you will have the option to watch it online through the FOX Sports app, Amazon Prime Video and Claro Video.
HOW THE SET WAS UNVEILED
The event, sponsored by the WWE 2K24 video game, was hosted by Jackie Redmond and Kayla Braxton, who welcomed Reigns to the ring. The Ninja Kidz team, known for their YouTube stunts, made an impressive entrance, followed by a spectacular pyrotechnics display and stage.
Unlike previous editions of WrestleMania, WWE opted not to include a gigantic, flashy element in the set design. For example, at WrestleMania 29, a Statue of Liberty was placed in the center of the stage, and at WrestleMania 33, a roller coaster was included. This time, however, the focus was on the action in the ring and the exciting fights that took place.
NO ONE LIKE THE TRIBAL CHIEFTAIN
At WrestleMania 40, Roman Reigns is on track to reach several impressive career milestones. Not only will he defend his title as Universal Champion for the fourth consecutive time and WWE Champion for the second consecutive time, but he will also be declared the WWE Undisputed Champion. In addition, he will face in the main event of both nights, marking his eighth and ninth overall WrestleMania main event, surpassing the record set by Hulk Hogan. Without a doubt, these accomplishments highlight Reigns' dominance and legacy in the wrestling world.
THE LINEUP FOR NIGHT 2
The highly anticipated Loco Seth Rollins event features an exciting showdown for the World Heavyweight Championship, where Seth "Freakin" Rollins will defend his title against Drew McIntyre, while CM Punk will join as special guest commentator for this fight.
In a street fight in Philadelphia, The Pride, consisting of Bobby Lashley, Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford, accompanied by B-Fab, will face The Final Testament, consisting of Karrion Kross, Akam and Rezar, along with Scarlett and Paul Ellering.
A one-on-one between LA Knight and AJ Styles promises to be an action-packed, technical skills showdown.
The United States Championship will be on the line in a bout that will feature Logan Paul defending his title against Kevin Owens and Randy Orton in a triple threat.
Meanwhile, in the WWE Women's Championship match, Iyo Sky will defend her title against Bayley in what is sure to be an exciting showdown.
Finally, the WWE Undisdisputed Universal Championship will be on the line when Roman Reigns, the reigning champion, faces Cody Rhodes in a showdown full of intensity and expectations.
THE LINEUP FOR NIGHT 1

- The Intercontinental Championship will be on the line when Gunther defends his title against Sami Zayn.
- The Maint Event, The Bloodline, headlined by Roman Reigns and The Rock, will face Cody Rhodes and Seth "Freakin" Rollins. The stipulations are crucial, as if The Bloodline wins, the Undisputed Universal Championship match between Reigns & Rhodes on Night 2 will become a Bloodline Tribal Rules Match. However, if Rhodes & Rollins emerge victorious, The Bloodline will not be able to intervene in said match.
THE WAIT IS OVER
The wait is over, Wrestlemania XL has finally arrived, the event where heroes are born, legends are consecrated and champions emerge.

Finish The Story but .... How?
A tremendous adventure is what we have experienced between watching the entire journey that the "American Nightmare", Cody Rhodes, has had to go through on his way to the Main Event at Wrestlemania. First, after winning the Royal Rumble, fans were already chanting the long-awaited rematch between Cody and "Tribal Boss" Roman Reigns, The Rock showed up to stop Cody and try to stand between the end of the story and the company's baby face. Now, after the #WeWantCody made out for the "American Nightmare" to star at Wrestlemania, Cody must team with Seth Rollins to try to defeat The Rock in a tag team match with Roman Reings at the Night 1 Main Event, if Rhodes' team wins, Roman will be presented alone and unaccompanied at the Night 2 main event, but if "The People's Champion" wins with the "Tribal Boss", The Bloodline will decide the rules for the WWE Undisputed Championship match.
At your service my general
Gunther will arrive at this Wrestlemania with more than 600 days of reign in the Intercontinental Championship, being the second longest champion who comes to the great event after Roman Reigns, "General" Gunther has defeated everyone who has wanted to take away his golden crown, however, in his way has appeared an old acquaintance who knows what it is to carry this championship; Samy Zayn. After proving throughout the year that he is ready to be the next mid-carder to elevate the division in the red brand, Sami will have to show up to Wrestlemania with the mentality of ending any weakness that could give Gunther an advantage and finish something that many men have started but very few have been able to finish.
Betrayal never comes from an enemy
After emerging victorious from the Women's Battle Royal, Bayley found all of Damage Control badmouthing her behind her back and looking to eliminate her before she sought to go for the WWE Women's Championship, however, in a great segment on Smackdown, Bayley counter attacked her former team, only to declare minutes later that she will go for the desired belt and crown herself as the new women's monarch of the blue brand.
The litmus test for the stranger
Logan Paul has always been controversial since his arrival in WWE, however, the "youtuber" showed passion for wrestling and earned a place in the roster until he became United States champion after defeating Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel. However, he has made several enemies, such is the case of Kevin Owens and Randy Orton, who received the opportunity to fight for the United States Champions at Wrestlemania against Logan Paul in a triple threat to collect revenge for all the fights that has cost them the new star of the company.
El Legado vs. the Latino World Order
One of the most special bouts in the last Wrestlemania's because the Latino pride of wrestling will be present in the event of the immortals when Santos Esobar and Dominik Mysterio seek to finish off once and for all their common enemy, Rey Mysterio, who will have to finish off his son and former friend, however, he will not be alone, because in his equine will be present Dragon Lee, faithful companion of the pride of San Diego.

But in the meantime, it is already ready to receive the XL edition of WRESTLEMANIA.
The official Wrestlemania theme song
Until a few months ago, there was much speculation about the likely song that would be part of this great event, however, finally ended up winning the race Gasoline - The Weeknd, returning to take the spotlight for the fifth consecutive year, a song by the renowned artist who also goes by the name of Abel Tesfaye.

In this edition, there will be a lot of expectation about what may happen on both nights, both night 1 and night 2 of Wrestlemania have great fights, also, all titles will be at stake with some long reigns in between that leave the feeling of a probable end in this great event.
