Overview
- Night 1 began Saturday at 6 p.m. ET from Allegiant Stadium, with the first hour airing on ESPN2 before the event moved to ESPN Unlimited in the U.S. and to Netflix in most international markets.
- Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton headlines Night 1 for the undisputed title, alongside three women’s championship bouts, Seth Rollins vs. Gunther, an unsanctioned Jacob Fatu–Drew McIntyre fight, and a celebrity six‑man tag featuring Logan Paul and IShowSpeed.
- John Cena is hosting this year’s show, and WWE unveiled a Night 1 stage with a post‑apocalyptic look, a massive rear screen, and new seating pressed close to the set after a test inside the stadium on April 17.
- Outlets agree on the 6 p.m. ET main start but list different preshow times, with several guides posting a 3 p.m. ET countdown and at least one listing 5 p.m., adding to fan confusion about when free coverage begins.
- Night 2 on Sunday is set for the same 6 p.m. ET start under the same distribution, headlined by CM Punk defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Roman Reigns.
