WrestleMania 42 Sunday Predictions are here for April 19, 2026, live on ESPN Unlimited, at the Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada. CM Punk and Roman Reigns<\/a> are set to headline the show in what is Punk’s first-ever WrestleMania Main Event.<\/p>\n

It can be argued that Punk was in the main event of Night 1 of ‘Mania 41 last year against Reigns and Seth Rollins, but the Night 2 Main Event is what really closes out the entire weekend. The Night 2 Main Event is more prestigious and is purportedly the real main event.<\/p>\n

This card is stacked with matches that should appeal to both casual wrestling fans and pro wrestling marks. Unfortunately, there is only one women’s match on the card, as WWE did reportedly promise six women’s matches<\/a> with three occurring each night. IYO SKY vs. Asuka vs. Kairi Sane and Giulia (c) vs. Tiffany Stratton for the U.S. Title are possible last-minute additions. Still, the fans should not hold their breath on those because they are dependent on Nikki Bella and even Chelsea Green returning from injury.<\/p>\n

Indeed, WWE is considering replacing the Bella Twins<\/a> from the Fatal Four Way Tag Title Match with Kabuki Warriors, which would jeopardize their potential match with IYO SKY. Also, Stratton teased a future partnership with Chelsea Green that could lead her to an impromptu U.S. Title match against Giulia at Mania, if Green politicks enough backstage with management.<\/p>\n

The fact that SKY and Stratton walked in and out of Mania 41 last year as world champions and are not booked on this year’s Mania card is ludicrous.<\/p>\n

It is questionable as to why WWE could not just keep the tag title match a triple threat or replace Bella Twins with Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez instead of replacing Bella Twins with Kabuki Warriors, who should be feuding with SKY. It is also questionable as to why the Women’s U.S. Title has never been defended on PPV since its inception. With that being said, it is now time for some foolproof WrestleMania 42 Night 2 Predictions, starting with Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi<\/a>, which should be an absolute spectacle.<\/p>\n
