WrestleMania 41 Storylines to Watch
With WrestleMania 41 set for April 20 in Las Vegas, several key storylines are taking shape:
-
Roman Reigns Returns: Reigns made a surprise comeback on the March 11 episode of WWE Raw, interfering in a steel cage match between CM Punk and Seth Rollins. His attack on both men hints at a potential triple-threat match at WrestleMania.
-
Rhea Ripley’s Resurgence: Ripley returned to WWE Raw and immediately targeted Liv Morgan, setting the stage for a heated rivalry.
-
Bron Breakker vs. Sheamus: Their Intercontinental Championship match ended in chaos after Ludwig Kaiser’s interference, suggesting unfinished business between all three competitors.
The synergy between WWE superstars and their fans is more palpable than ever.
