WrestleMania 42 Card Remains Unsettled as Only Punk–Reigns Is Official

Internal criticism of Triple H is mounting over shifting plans and soft ticket sales.

Overview

  • Fightful reports that much of the lineup is still being discussed, with decisions expected to firm up after the Feb. 28 Elimination Chamber event.
  • The Wrestling Observer, echoed by Yahoo Sports, says title-match plans have been revised twice following Seth Rollins’ shoulder injury and Drew McIntyre’s Jan. 9 championship win.
  • WON reports WWE is leaning toward McIntyre defending the Undisputed title against Cody Rhodes at WrestleMania, with Jacob Fatu potentially being added, though this remains unconfirmed.
  • Injuries continue to complicate booking, with a possible Bron Breakker vs. Rollins match dependent on Rollins’ medical clearance and Breakker recovering from hernia surgery.
  • Bleacher Report notes ticket sales are lagging year over year, with roughly 74,000 seats sold for both nights combined compared to about 89,000 at the same point last year.
