WrestleMania 42 Opening Matches Confirmed (WWE News)
WWE reveals which bouts will kick things off on WrestleMania Saturday and Sunday this weekend.
WWE has officially revealed which 2 matches will get the nod to kick off WrestleMania 42's Saturday and Sunday cards respectively, and they really couldn't be more different from one another! The opening night will begin with LA Knight and The Usos vs. The Vision's Austin Theory and Logan Paul alongside their celebrity partner IShowSpeed.
That's been getting a ton of airtime on episodes of Raw over the past couple of weeks. There were slight concerns behind the scenes about whether or not Speed would be able to get up to...speed in time to work the 6-man tag, but it looks like it's all systems go for the YouTuber.
This is the kind of match that nobody could've expected to grace the grand stage of 'Mania several years ago.
On Sunday, Triple H and other WWE/TKO chiefs will trust Brock Lesnar to jumpstart the second night opposite towering powerhouse Oba Femi. Segments between those guys have played before a lot of interest on the flagship, and most predict that Brock will put rising star Oba over in a big, big way.
It's worth noting that WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select was the first to leak news on these WrestleMania openers, and they were bang on the money. WWE will bank on a celeb-infused 6-man to get things going on Saturday, then on a power vs. power big man battle to rock the house come Sunday.
Bring it on.
