Wrestlemania XL Night One Preview
I hate having to do this but I just do not have the time to do a full on preview for the show in my usual format. It’s this or nothing this time so here’s a short form version:
Rhea Ripley retains over Becky Lynch. Ripley has held the title for a year and doesn’t feel anywhere near ready to lose it yet.
Gunther retains over Sami Zayn. The pieces are there, but I don’t think they pull the trigger on Gunther just yet.
The Tag Team Titles are split, with DIY and New Catch Republic (due to a lack of anyone else) getting a set each.
Jey Uso b. Jimmy Uso. Why in the world would it be anything else?
Bianca Belair/Naomi/Jade Cargill b. Damage CTRL. Did I mention the JADE CARGILL part? There is zero chance she’s losing her first Wrestlemania match.
Santos Escobar/Dominik Mysterio b. Rey Mysterio/Andrade. Yeah they did the angle on Smackdown, but why in the world would you have Rey beat Dominik two years in a row?
Bloodline b. Cody Rhodes/Seth Rollins, setting up Bloodline Rules for Cody’s big title shot. I like the idea of him winning straight up, but having Cody overcome ALL of the odds is a better story.
