CM Punk made a dramatic return to WWE at Survivor Series 2023, aiming to headline his first WrestleMania. Unfortunately, a torn tricep from the Men’s Royal Rumble Match this year has sidelined him indefinitely. Tonight, he’ll be a guest commentator for the World Heavyweight Championship match alongside Pat McAfee, Michael Cole, and Big E.
During the WrestleMania Kickoff panel, CM Punk didn’t hold back, criticizing The Rock for his absence in the ring since WrestleMania 32 in 2016. He highlighted the challenge of returning to action after a long hiatus, especially in cold and windy conditions, pointing out the impact it may have on The People’s Champion’s performance.
Big E from The New Day, also part of the panel, shared his thoughts on tonight’s monumental tag team match. The main event features The Rock teaming up with WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns against Cody Rhodes and World Heavyweight Champion Seth Rollins. Big E emphasized the significance of The Rock’s involvement, dubbing it the most significant tag team match in WrestleMania history.

The stakes are high for tonight’s main event. If The Rock and Roman Reigns emerge victorious, The Bloodline gains the freedom to interfere in the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship match on Night Two. Conversely, a win for Rhodes and Rollins means The Bloodline is banned from ringside during the title bout. The outcome of this clash will undoubtedly charm the audience, showcasing which team will prevail in this headline showdown.
As the wrestling world anticipates the action-packed WrestleMania XL, the tension rises with each passing moment. The clash of titans and the strategic alliances promise an unforgettable spectacle for fans worldwide. Stay tuned for the thrilling culmination of rivalries and alliances at WWE’s grandest stage, WrestleMania XLI.
