Wrestlemania 41 to be honest was one of the more meh Wrestlemanias we have had in a while.
It had its ups but it had more downs so this is how I would rebook the card.
Night 1:
Opener: WWE Women’s Championship Match
Tiffany Stratton (c) vs Charlotte Flair
Why: I decided not to change this as it was really the match people have been wanting since 2024 and since Tiffany Stratton debuted on the main roster. The Posh Princess vs The Queen. What I would change is I would keep Tiffany Stratton heel and have a heel vs heel feud as either way the fans would’ve cheered Charlotte.
Winner: I would have Tiffany retain as this match was made to be a passing of the torch. From here since Tiffany is a heel it gives more people an opportunity to face her and we wouldn’t just have Nia Jax vs Tiffany Stratton thrice and maybe would’ve felt more fulfilled if Jade then beat her at Summerslam.
WWE Tag Team Championships-Triple Threat Ladder Match
The Street Profits (c) vs DIY vs The Motor City Machine Guns
Why: Let’s be honest, the World Tag Team division did not deserve a Wrestlemania spot over the greatest Tag Division currently in all of pro wrestling. This match was built up to be this generations version of Edge & Christian vs The Dudley Boys vs The Hardy Boyz and maybe if this was announced three weeks before Wrestlemania and we get a promo this would’ve been an even more hype match.
Winner: I’d have it go like this. Tommaso Ciampa has his hands on the title when Angelo pushes the Ladder down on Johnny Gargano and Chris Sabin who were being held by Montez Ford. Alex on another Ladder jumps and spear Tommasso down as both of them land on Angelo as everyone is now down and all of a sudden…Yes Boys!!!!!!! Pretty Deadly who aren’t even in the match run down put up a Ladder and steal the tag team titles and technically become the tag team champions! We get another heist of the century just dialed back a whole lot and can finally get Pretty Deadly the musical.
Grudge Match: Jade Cargill vs Naomi
Why: Again not a match that really needs no changing, perfect spot, good match, maybe add a table spot with a Splash from Naomi on Jade through the Spanish Announce table. Good storyline that could stay the same so no changing from that side.
Winner: Keep it as Jade Cargill as we can see this doesn’t hurt Naomi in the future and off this great win we can book Jade a bit better.
United States Championship Match: Austin Theory (c) vs Jacob Fatu
Why: I know…Isn’t LA Knight the champion? It’s simple I’d have Austin turn on Grayson at Money In The Bank. 2 Month feud ends at either Summerslam or Go-home of Bash In Berlin. Have him have good mid-card feuds with Carmelo and others before facing Shinsuke Nakamura at say Royal Rumble and wins the U.S Championship in a huge babyface moment. For these next few months we have him defend this title regularly in small feuds. The last one being with the Miz before eventually getting sucked into the Bloodline Vortex as Jacob Fatu becomes the NO.1 Contender for Wrestlemania.
Winner: Jacob Fatu-I can see this match being slightly better than LA vs Fatu as Theory is a better in ring wrestler and I’d have maybe a Mighty Moonsault into a A-Town Down (the original version from NXT-AKA The TKO) for a close 2 count before Fatu does win.
Grudge Match: Austin Theory (c) vs Jacob Fatu
Why: I would’ve had El Grande feud with Penta from the beginning as Penta was the lucha Chad Gable was originally feuding with and In My Opinion could keep the Rey feud for something closer to Summerslam.
Winner: El-Grande-We need someone who can get some heel heat out of Night 1 as I would either have El Grande cheat with the metal in the mask or counter a Penta Driver into a roll-up so we can continue that feud maybe into Worlds Collide. Match 6: Women’s Intercontinental Championship Match
Lyra Valkyria (c) vs Ivy Nile
Why: I would have both women’s midcard championships at Wrestlemania just to ramp up their importance starting by ramping up Lyra’s reign around Elimination Chamber Season. Have Ivy or Lyra eliminate each other from the rumble and then on the go-home before elimination chamber Lyra wins a number 1 contenders match and is facing Lyra at Wrestlemania. I would have this look like a Brock Lesnar vs John Cena feud with Ivy being this force no matter what Lyra can’t take down and Lyra being the never giving up feud. Maybe once Ivy leaves Lyra bloody just to keep things intense.
Winner: Lyra retains-Lyra before Wrestlemania never really had a chance to show off so this would be her make or break moment. Have it be a short but intense match with steel steps, submissions and more. I’d have Lyra win with a middle-rope Nightwing to retain and after the match Becky Lynch comes out looking like shes congratulating Lyra but instead drops her with a Man-Handle Slam to start the Becky and Lyra feud a bit earlier.
World Heavyweight Championship: Gunther (c) vs CM Punk vs Seth Rollins
Why: I would be built like this. Last 3 in the rumble being Rollins, Reigns and Punk as the three give us a little moment just like Wrestlemania 41 but Punk and Roman eliminate Rollins by teaming up on him. Punk and Roman battle it out as Roman gets Punk over the top but He holds on until Seth grabs him by his legs, eliminating him. Both Rollins and Punk are in the Elimination Chamber as Punk wins it by eliminating Seth. Gunther comes down to staredown Punk when Seth comes from behind stomping on Punk and the triple threat feud begins. Winner: CM Punk-we have the favour of Paul being in Punk’s corner still exist but Paul doesn’t turn on Punk yet instead helps him win by pulling Seth out so he doesn’t interrupt Punks pin. CM Punk wins in his first main event as in Summerslam we have Punk vs Rollins one more time and that’s where Punk is turned on by Paul and we start the Vision there.
Night 2:
Opener: Women’s World Championship
Iyo Sky (c) vs Rhea Ripley vs Bianca Belair.
Why: This feud needed no changing, this match is one of the greatest Triple Threats in wrestlemania history, one of the greatest women’s matches of all time and honestly one of the greatest matches of all time. Keep it as Bianca winning Elimination Chamber, Rhea getting herself involved and Iyo being the short fuse who finally explodes.
Winner: Iyo retains-no need to change anything here-great match and feud.
Match 2: Sin-City Street Fight
Jey Uso vs Drew McIntyre
Why: Well Drew I feel needed to revive his heel heat in 2025 and this is how. Have him after the
Jey Uso and Guntehr match at SNME attack Jey and ‘take him out’ Have him then the next Raw-which is the go-home before the Rumble- hate on Jey Uso, hate on the fans and declare himself for the rumble. Have him wreck a bunch of people when Jey Uso’s music hits and immediately he spears himself and Drew McIntyre out of the match as the two of them brawl throughout the arena. Start the feud from there with a bunch of brawls before it’s made official-Jey Uso vs Drew McIntyre in a Sin-City Street Fight.
Winner: Drew McIntyre-he needs a big win and to continue his mission of the Bloodline hunter. After this, have him hang low for a bit with a feud with Jimmy Uso and maybe dethrone Jacob Fatu or go after Roman Reigns at Summerslam.
Match 3: Intercontinental Championship Match
Bron Breakker (c) vs John Cena
Why: After seeing the heel run under-exceed all expectations I think it would be best to maybe instead have him have his moment at night 2 of Summerslam with the WWE Championship and for now keep him in the midcard. Have him be the one to eliminate Bron Breakker at the Royal Rumble. In the Elimination Chamber, Bron takes Drew’s spot and John eliminates him. CM Punk and John Cena moment but this time Bron interferes costing Cena. The two have a ‘old timer vs next generation’ feud that could really build Breakker.
Winner: John Cena-Have him have a big moment of becoming a Grand Slam champion before he retires and it opens him up to newer feuds with guys like Dominik Mysterio, Finn Balor, Bronson Reed, etc… I’d have him lose the title a little before Money In The Bank to either Sheamus or Ludwig Kaiser to have time to put him in the World Title divisions.
Match 4: Grudge Match
Randy Orton vs Kevin Owens
Why: If Kevin’s neck never got injured this would’ve been the match so im keeping this as the match going into Wrestlemania. In those last weeks, Randy was trying to get a match so instead we’d have a contract signing, video package, one on one promo with security surrounding them and a video call promo.
Winner: Kevin Owens-I know this is Randy’s 20th Wrestlemania but think about it. Kevin wouldn’t be able to benefit from another loss where-as if Randy lost that could be the straw that broke the camel’s back as Orton can turn heel after this. After that I’d put KO on Raw and in the World Title division for some new feuds.
Match 5: 2 out of 3 Falls match
Logan Paul vs AJ Styles
Why: Keep the feud the same all the way and i’d have them have a match at Elimnation chamber and thats where Logan wins by cheating so AJ Challenges him to a rematch at
Wrestlemania in 2 out of 3 falls match
Winner: AJ Styles-give a big babyface win where Logan can also have his moment to shine as AJ would benefit more in some ways if he beats Logan.
Match 6: Women’s United States Championship
Chelsea Green (c) vs Jordynne Grace
Why: Jordynne should’ve been on the main roster from the beginning and The Women’s U.S division needed someone refreshing and Jordynne could be just what they needed. Have Jordynne spear Chelsea on the go-home show-The secret Hervice cost Jordynne in the rumble and at Wrestlemania Chelsea vs Jordynne.
Winner: Jordynne Grace-the U.S division needed a reset and this could be it.
Main Event: WWE Championship Match
Cody Rhodes (c) vs Roman Reigns Part 3
Why: This is in my opinion the Stone Cold vs The Rock feud, the John Cena and Randy Orton feud, even the Hulk Hogan and Ultimate Warrior feud of this generation and we need the final match. Roman wins the rumble in Indanapollis the place he debuted in 2012, Cody and Roman go at it one last time to see who is really the best of this generation.
Winner: Cody Rhodes-lets be real Roman was going to go part time again so Cody would need to win this if we wanted an actual Champion around. Cody beating Roman finally ends any rumblings of this feud and we end Wrestlemania with the huge Babyface on top.
