The build-up to WrestleMania 41 is getting hotter with crazy rumors circulating regarding potential triple-threat matches on both evenings. Although nothing has been officially announced, several wrestling insiders indicate that WWE is mulling a change in the main event, featuring CM Punk along with John Cena and other big guns.

If these rumors are true, fans may see a fiery two-night WrestleMania battle like never before.

One of the more prominent rumors circulating is that Night 1 of WrestleMania 41 would see a triple threat match between Seth Rollins, Roman Reigns, and CM Punk. The reported twist? The victor would be booked into Night 2's main event against John Cena and Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship.

The source of this speculation remains unclear, but WrestleVotes and other wrestling insiders suggest that WWE officials are debating the best direction. There seems to be a divide between two potential triple-threat matchups:

  • Option 1: CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins vs. Roman Reigns (Night 1) → Winner advances to Night 2.
  • Option 2: John Cena vs. CM Punk vs. Cody Rhodes (Night 2) – WWE's preferred scenario, according to reports.

On Reddit, several fans voiced their opinions about CM Punk's "main event" participation in two nights.

"Please no. Please no," a Redditor wrote.

"Leaving the rumble it felt like Punk vs Seth vs Roman was inevitable," another user commented.

"I don't think this will happen, but I absolutely love watching the Punk haters melt down lol," another replied to the post.

The CM Punk's Position in the WrestleMania 41 Main Event Scene

A subject of much speculation is CM Punk's possible contribution to the main event scene. Rumor has it that WWE may incorporate Punk into both evenings, making him a focal point in WrestleMania 41.

As for Bully Ray via Wrestling Inc, CM Punk will get to WWE Wrestlemania 41 Main Event.

Speculation is that Punk may exercise his "favor" on Roman Reigns, win Night 1, and guarantee his spot in the main event against Cena and Rhodes.

If true, it would be a massive moment for Punk supporters, as it would see him in the main event on the biggest stage of the year. That being said, it does cause questions about how this would impact Jey Uso's WrestleMania plans, given his increasing feud with Gunther.

What About Jey Uso and Other Top Players?

As the spotlight continues to shine on Punk, Cena, Reigns, Rollins, and Rhodes, some fans are questioning Jey Uso's place in WrestleMania 41.

If the reported triple threat matches happen, Jey could be excluded from the main event scene unless his rivalry with Gunther picks up steam leading into the Mania season.

Jey has been an emerging star ever since his departure from The Bloodline, and numerous fans would have wanted him to have a WrestleMania marquee bout.

Is WWE Going to Pull the Plug on Two Triple Threats?

At this stage, all of this is mere speculation, and WWE has not yet announced anything about the WrestleMania 41 match card. But if these rumors turn out to be true, we might be witnessing one of the most loaded and unpredictable WrestleMania main events in recent history.

Elsewhere, WrestleMania 42 is confirmed to be taking place in New Orleans in 2026, according to WWE.
