WrestleMania 42 is set to take place in Las Vegas on Saturday and Sunday with a total of 13 matches officially confirmed for the two-day event, as reported by CBS Sports Headlines on April 17, 2026.

The biggest wrestling event of the year draws near with WrestleMania 42 scheduled for April 18 and 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. WWE has loaded up the card with a mix of superstar wrestlers and mainstream stars for the annual two-night extravaganza.

Night 1 Main Event and Championship Matches

Night 1 will be headlined by Randy Orton challenging Cody Rhodes for the undisputed WWE championship. In a controversial twist to the match, Pat McAfee was revealed as the voice in Orton’s ear and now McAfee will have to leave the wrestling business forever if Orton fails to win on Saturday.

Also set for Night 1 are three other title matches. The women’s world championship is on the line when current champion Stephanie Vaquer takes on Royal Rumble winner Liv Morgan. Women’s intercontinental champion AJ Lee puts her title on the line against former titleholder Becky Lynch. And the women’s tag team champions Nia Jax and Lash Legend face off against three other teams in a fatal four-way title match. Jax and Legend go up against Charlotte Flair and Alexa Bliss, Bayley and Lyra Valkyria as well as Nikki and Brie Bella.

Night 2 Main Event and Additional Matches

The Night 2 main event pits world heavyweight champion CM Punk against Royal Rumble winner Roman Reigns. Reigns is looking to climb back to being a champion, having previously been champion for 1,316 days. Punk has invoked the ire of Reigns’ Samoan family, leading to questions over whether or not Reigns will truly go at it alone against the champion.
