25 years ago, The Rock main evented his first WrestleMania — against Stone Cold Steve Austin for the WWF world heavyweight title at WrestleMania 15 — in Philadelphia. Now in 2024, The Rock will pair up with his cousin Roman Reigns — who was 13 in 1999 — to take on Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins in Saturday’s main event at WrestleMania XL.
The City of Brotherly Love will get two cracks to see Reigns, who will also defend his Universal Championship against Rhodes and his attempt to complete the ever elusive “story”.
The 40th edition of the Showcase of the Immortals will have plenty of titles on the line, including both women’s titles, the intercontinental title, undisputed tag team titles and the world heavyweight title.
Take a look below at the confirmed matches for WrestleMania XL. Check back for updates to the fight card, along with other stories and news.
