WWE announces the opening matches for both nights of WrestleMania 41

The on-screen story of CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns revealed that their Triple Threat match would close its night of WrestleMania 41. That essentially confirmed that John Cena and Undisputed WWE champion Cody Rhodes would wrap up the whole weekend on Sunday night.

When WWE confirmed the full cards for both April 19 and 20 in Las Vegas, there were plenty of guesses as to which matches might start us off each night. With only a little more than 24 hours to go before the action starts at Allegiant Stadium, we don’t have to guess any more.

We found out on Friday’s edition of The Pat McAfee Show that WWE Women’s champion IYO SKY’s Triple Threat title defense against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley will open tomorrow’s show. WrestleMania 41’s second night will start with Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso challenging Gunther for his WWE World Heavyweight championship.
