WWE finally seems to be going back to its glory days after the recent WrestleMania 40. Ever since Dwayne Johnson a.k.a The Rock returned to the ring, the events at the promotion and the storyline seem to have gotten better and better. The recent WrestleMania was also considered to be one of the best in recent times and reportedly satisfied many fans.
After the promotion’s biggest event, WWE seems to be going twice as hard as the recent SmackDown saw Kevin Owens bleeding after a fight with Tama Tonga.

The opening of the show saw Kevin Owens host his Ko show with guest Randy Orton. Logan Paul who they both face in a triple threat match on Sunday. Paul mocked them from across the street the site of WrestleMania which led to a comedic chase around both Wells Fargo and the Link. Until Orton and Ko eventually tricked Ko to come to the ring where Paul was eventually beaten down by both men.

WrestleMania 40 is nearly here, and the milestone event is looking to live up to its “Xl” billing. Across two nights, WWE’s biggest stars will compete for glory, championships, and, perhaps, the honor of participating in one of the greatest matches in WrestleMania history. If the quality of recent WrestleMania shows is any indication, it should be a lot of fun.
Of course, none of that actually matters much if you don’t know how and when to watch WrestleMania 40 in the first place. So, here’s (hopefully) everything you need to know about the upcoming show.
WrestleMania 40: Start Time and Dates
As has been the case with recent WrestleMania shows, WrestleMania 40 will be a two-night event.

Dwayne Johnson, also known as The Rock, is on the verge of making a comeback to the wrestling world. His match with The American Nightmare, also known as Cody Rhodes, has certainly attracted a lot of attention towards WrestleMania 40.
Produced by WWE, WrestleMania 40 is the upcoming professional wrestling event which will be held two nights- April 6 and April 7. This is the first WrestleMania since the formation of the Tko Group Holdings after the WWE was merged with UFC. This happened after Endeavor bought the former company in 2023, and implies that in addition to the WWE players, UFC players will also be joining the event this year.
While The Rock vs. Cody Rhodes is one of the most highly anticipated matches of WrestleMania 40, here are 5 other matches (via WWE) that will keep you hooked.

Everybody knows that Logan Paul has no filter. The reigning WWE United States Champion doesn’t shy away from bringing his trademark boldness to his promos.
From body shaming Kevin Owens to posting viral semi-nude pictures with the US Championship, Paul has evidenced his tendency to act without censorship and restraint.
That said, Paul once again made a bizarre statement, months ahead of his brother Jake Paul’s much-talked-about boxing match with the legendary “Iron” Mike Tyson. However, this time, Paul went a little overboard with his Nsfw phrasing. So, what did ‘The Maverick’ say?

Match #1: Randy Orton & Kevin Owens def. Grayson Waller & Austin Theory The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
The Viper and The Prizefighter teamed up to take on Logan Paul’s allies Grayson Waller and Austin Theory in a huge tag team showdown. Waller and Theory used their previous tag team experience to grind down Ko, who was in desperate need to tag in Orton. Waller mocked The Viper by using his iconic Orton mat pound but Waller could not connect with the Rko on Owens. The Legend Killer soon tagged in, acting like a wrecking ball on Waller, showing him how it’s done with his own mat pound, but Theory was able to stop Orton from hitting the Rko.

WWE legend Edge reflected on his legacy ahead of tonight’s SmackDown show in his hometown of Toronto when he squares off against Sheamus.
The 49-year-old Canadian wrestler, born Adam Copeland, recently chatted to Et Canada’s Carlos Bustamante about leaving a mark on the wrestling world.
During the interview, Edge revealed that Friday’s match will in fact be the last one on his current contract. But he isn’t entirely sure whether it’ll be the final match of his career.
Elsewhere in the chat, the wrestler spoke about previously getting advice from Canadian wrestling icon Bret Hart when he was younger, saying that he’d love to be associated with him when people think of his career.
After mentioning that it used to be harder for anyone abroad, including Canadians, to get into wrestling, Edge said of whether he ever thinks about his place in wrestling history and opening doors for others,...

As Gunther beat down Riddle, The Original Bro withstood the punishment, attempting to get the victory after a ripcord knee. Gunther did not need Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci with him, defeating The Original Bro a huge Powerbomb.

Music stars Patti LaBelle, Roberta Flack and Teddy Pendergrass have paid their respects to late soul singer Luther Vandross in a New York City funeral home. Grammy-winning singer Vandross died last Friday after failing to fully recover from a stroke in 2003. Soul star LaBelle, 61, sat in the front row of the parlor in Manhattan's Frank E Campbell Funeral Home Wednesday, consoling the hundreds of fans who arrived to say goodbye to their idol. When one fan began sobbing loudly, LaBelle told her, "Let it out, lady. Let it out." Flack and Pendergrass joined the line of people waiting to see Vandross in his white coffin, reports the New York Daily News. Vandross' back-up singer Kevin Owens laments, "He cared so much about the public, about what they would see and hear." A memorial service for the hitmaker will be held at nearby Riverside Church tomorrow.
