The time has come. The world is set to enjoy what many call the “Super Bowl of professional wrestling,” as WWE brings two magical nights of action from Las Vegas, Nevada, with the 42nd edition of WrestleMania.

When is WrestleMania 42?

Held at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada, WrestleMania takes place on Saturday, April 18, and Sunday, April 19. On both days, the action is scheduled to kick off at at 6:00 p.m. ET and 3:00 p.m. PT.

The event is headlined by CM Punk vs Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes vs Randy Orton, both marquee matches contested for the company’s top championships.

Just one day before WWE’s grand showcase, PWInsider reported that Nikki Bella would be unable to team with her sister Brie in the Fatal 4-Way match for the WWE Women’s Tag Team Championships. In her place, the so-called “Anti-Diva,” Paige, will step in. Paige has already signed her contract and is set to make her return on Night 1.

Saturday’s action will also witness a big-name Six-Man Tag Team Match involving Logan Paul, Austin Theory and IShowSpeed, against Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso and LA Knight.

Night 2 will feature Brock Lesnar in what could be his final match with the company, as he faces Oba Femi - a rising star who many believe could become WWE’s next dominant force. The card also includes Dominik Mysterio clashing with Finn Bálor, and a high-risk Ladder Match where Penta defends the Intercontinental Championship against Dragon Lee, Je’Von Evans, JD McDonagh, Rusev, and Rey Mysterio.

Everything is now in place for WrestleMania weekend, an event that unites fans across the globe in one massive celebration of professional wrestling.
