Overview
- WWE said Joe Jonas will perform the National Anthem to open WrestleMania 42 Night 2, which starts April 19 at 6 p.m. ET/3 p.m. PT.
- Jonas reacted on X by calling himself a lifelong WWE super fan and said he was “freaking out” about the role.
- Night 2 is slated to open with Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi, with the first two matches airing on ESPN for added reach.
- WWE has not named an anthem performer for Night 1, following last year’s use of pop acts such as Ava Max for the pre-match ceremony.
- The celebrity-heavy approach is set to continue, with IShowSpeed, Pat McAfee, and Jelly Roll reported for roles across the two-night show.
