Tonight's lineup features seven blockbuster matches, with some last-minute adjustments just like Night One. Here is a look at the scheduled card as of this moment:
The action is set to kick off with a high-stakes Triple Threat Match for the Womenâs World Championship. Reigning champion Iyo Sky will defend her title against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley in what promises to be a show-stealing opener.
AJ Styles is scheduled to face Logan Paul in singles competition, continuing their intense build-up with plenty of personal animosity between them.

The WWE Womenâs Tag Team Championships will be on the line as current titleholders Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez defend their gold against Lyra Valkyria and a yet-to-be-announced partner. Bayley, who was originally expected to team with Valkyria, is out with a kayfabe injury.

In a Sin City Street Fight, Drew McIntyre looks to settle the score with Damian Priest. With no disqualifications and no count-outs, this battle could spill all over the arena.
Finally, the main event of Night Two will see Cody Rhodes defend the WWE Championship against none other than John Cena. It is a generational clash for the ages, and the stakes could not be higher.
Stay with us for live match-by-match updates throughout the night.
Ava Maxx kicked off the show with a patriotic performance as the broadcast opened with glimpses of WWE Superstars arriving and hanging out backstage. Michael Cole narrated over the footage, setting the stage for the night ahead, which included matches for Lyra Valkyria and Randy Orton, both of whom were set to face opponents yet to be revealed. Bron Breakker received a lively reaction from the crowd, with plenty of dog-barks echoing through the arena. Meanwhile, Randy Orton was seen walking backstage accompanied by a woman presumed to be his wifeâthough if she was not, there may be some explaining to do later.
The show then turned its attention to the opening contest of the night: a high-stakes Triple Threat Match for the Womenâs World Championship. Champion Iyo Sky was set to defend her title against two formidable challengersâBianca Belair and Rhea Ripley.
Iyo Sky was the first to make her entrance, signaling the start of a highly anticipated triple threat match for the Womenâs World Championship. Bianca Belair followed, entering to a wave of loud boos as a dozen women, each brandishing long braids, performed a choreographed dance routine in her honor. Rhea Ripley came out last to a strong ovation from the crowd. Commentary highlighted that while Iyo Sky had never won at WrestleMania, she remained undefeated in triple threat matches and, coincidentally, it was also her birthday.
As the bell rang, Ripley and Belair immediately faced off, seemingly ignoring Sky, who stood on the outside watching. Feeling left out, Sky rushed in and attacked both competitors. The early moments saw Sky showing off her signature speed and aerial offense, including a Hurricanrana to Ripley. Belair and Ripley eventually teamed up to send Iyo outside, then focused on one another. Sky, however, returned with a vengeance, landing a double-blockbuster from the top rope and following it up with a double dropkick. She continued to build momentum, hitting a springboard moonsault to the outside, taking out both challengers again.
Back inside the ring, Sky attempted a pin on Ripley, but Belair broke it up. After ejecting Ripley from the ring, Belair taunted her and was nearly rolled up by Sky. The two traded offense briefly, including a moment where Belair mockingly slapped her own backside to provoke Sky. Belair delivered a trio of suplexes, finishing with a stalling suplex and a kip-up, though the crowd was clearly unimpressed and booed loudly. Ripley re-entered and took control, but Sky attempted another aerial assault, only for Belair to catch her mid-air and slam her into the barricade.
With the action returning to the ring, Ripley delivered a Razorâs Edge-style toss on Belair, but the pin attempt only got a two count. She then trapped Sky in a submission, but Belair made the save. Belair tried to land the KOD on Ripley, who managed to escape. Both women ran at each other and connected with simultaneous face slams, leaving them down as the crowd erupted. Sky was the first to recover, seeing Belair and Ripley positioned in opposite corners. She hit quick Bronco Busters on both before heading up top. Ripley climbed the turnbuckles behind her, and Belair joined in, resulting in a huge triple suplex that leveled everyone.
As the match intensified, Belair speared Sky and followed with a springboard move for a near fall. Ripley interrupted and tossed Belair outside. Sky stunned Ripley with a sudden DDT, then charged only to be caught with a kick. Ripley lifted Sky for a Riptide from the middle rope, but Iyo reversed it. With Ripley down, Sky hit her signature over-the-moonsault, but before she could capitalize, Belair struck with the KOD. She went for the pin, but Ripley made the save just in time.
An enraged Belair began pacing and shouting at Ripley, repeating "I work harder than you!" Ripley retaliated with a fierce slap, and the two exchanged heavy blows. Their fight took them to the corner and up to the turnbuckles. Ripley sent Belair crashing to the outside. Sky attempted a Poisonrana on Ripley, but Rhea countered, slamming Sky into the turnbuckle. Belair returned and attempted another KOD, which Ripley evaded. Rhea went for the Riptide, but Belair blocked it with a devastating whip of her braid. Just as she covered Ripley, Sky soared off the top with another over-the-moonsault, landing on both and successfully pinning her challenger to retain the title.
Your Winner AND STILL Womenâs World Champion: Iyo Sky!
Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest brawled fiercely in a brutal and chaotic match. McIntyre came out swinging with a flurry of elbows, but Priest halted his momentum by clotheslining him over the ropes and diving onto him with an elbow of his own. Priest began to stalk his opponent around ringside, slamming McIntyre's face into the barricade before tossing him over it.
McIntyre quickly regrouped, tearing apart the steel steps and sliding the bottom half into the ringâbut Priest turned the tables, hurling the steel directly into Drewâs face. With McIntyre reeling, Priest continued the assault by throwing him into the barricade once more before retrieving a table from beneath the ring. However, Drew recovered in time to intercept Priest and unleashed repeated strikes using the other half of the steel steps!
In a moment of showmanship, McIntyre snatched a fanâs phone to take a quick selfie before tossing Priest back into the ring and leveling him with a steel chair. McIntyre then set up multiple tables at ringside while Priest tried to regain his footing. The two traded heavy right hands on the apron until Drew nailed a headbutt and clotheslined Priest off the edge of the ring. McIntyre then showcased his athleticism by hitting a powerful tope con giro to the outside.
Back inside the ring, Drew narrowly missed a chair shot, landed a Claymore Kick, and nearly picked up the win. He followed up by ramming the chair into Priestâs neckâonly for Damian to counter the next Claymore attempt with a sudden South of Heaven chokeslam. The chair was shrugged off as Priest covered McIntyre for a close near-fall.
Priest began unloading chair shots and jammed one into the corner, but McIntyre halted his charge with a spinebuster. He dragged a table into the ring and positioned it before lifting Priest onto his shoulders. Damian slipped free and delivered a crushing Razorâs Edge through the tableâyet McIntyre still managed to kick out.
Refusing to let up, Priest rearranged the steel steps in the ring. He went for a chokeslam, but Drew gouged his eyes and followed with a Future Shock DDT right on the stepsâbut even that was not enough to end it. The two men stood toe to toe, trading slaps and punches. A headbutt stunned Priest, but he roared back with a massive lariat that flattened McIntyre.
Priest then climbed the ropes, looking to walk them in an Old School-style moveâbut McIntyre knocked him down and sent him crashing through two tables on the floor! Wasting no time, Drew followed up inside the ring and secured the victory by pinfall after nailing a Claymore Kick directly into a steel chair.
Your Winner, Drew McIntyre!
Penta was the first to make his entrance, soaking in the energy of the crowd during his WrestleMania debut. Dressed in green and gold ring gear that drew comparisons to the Green Ranger, he danced his way to the ring with confidence. Dominik Mysterio followed, greeted by a sea of boos. Finn Balor came next to a mixed reaction, and finally, Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker made his entrance, also marking his first appearance at WrestleMania.
Once all competitors were in the ring, the action kicked off fast and furious. Breakker wasted no time, immediately targeting Dominik, who quickly slid out of harm's way. That left Penta in Breakkerâs sights, but this opened the door for Dominik and Finn to ambush Breakker from behind. The Judgment Day duo teamed up, dumping Breakker from the ring before turning their attention to Penta.
Penta responded with a dazzling sequence, sending Finn and Dom flying out of the ring with a hurricanrana and follow-up tope. As he celebrated, Breakker returned out of nowhere and plowed through him with a massive diving shoulder thrust. Inside the ring, Penta attempted a springboard cutter, but Breakker snatched him out of the air and planted him with a devastating powerslam, followed by another punishing slam for good measure.
Breakker nearly split Dominik in two with a spear, but before he could score the win, Finn made the save. Breakker began to dominate both Finn and Penta, battering them with shoulder thrusts and corner attacks. Finn nailed a Sling Blade to slow Breakker down, while Penta executed a drop toe-hold that caused Dom to crash into Finn. Penta then cranked Balorâs arm with the Sacrifice breaker and tried to follow up, only for Breakker to return with a double German suplex that flattened both men.
Penta narrowly avoided a spear from Breakker, allowing Dominik to re-enter the fight and clear the ring. Dominik launched into the Three Amigos on Penta before Carlito made his way to ringside. Dom and Finn tried to team up on Penta again, but Breakker roared back in, tossing them both with a huge double suplex. Breakker tore off his straps and began dishing out heavy clotheslines and suplexes, even pulling off a Frankensteiner from the top rope on Balor for a near fall.
As the pace picked up, all four men started taking each other out in a wild exchange. Dominik found himself stalking Finn and struck with a dropkick, attempting the 6-1-9, but Finn cut him off. Balor began stomping away on Dom before Penta struck with the Penta Driver. He had Finn pinned until Breakker broke it up just in time.
Penta and Breakker rose and exchanged strikes. Pentaâs chest slap was met with a brutal knee strike from Bron. As Breakker ran the ropes, Carlito pulled the ropes down and sent him tumbling to the outside. Dom tried a surprise roll-up on Penta, but it failed. Carlito then dragged Penta from the ring and cleared the announce table for a planned attack. Just as Carlito was about to act, Bron launched himself across the floor with a breathtaking spear that left Carlito wrecked on the ground. Michael Cole, losing it on commentary, exclaimed he thought Carlito was dead.
Bron re-entered the ring, immediately spearing Penta mid-attack. Dominik blindsided Bron and set up for the 6-1-9, but Finn interrupted once more. Balor connected with another Sling Blade, then a Shotgun Dropkick, followed by the Coup de Grace. Just as he looked poised to win, Dominik came flying in with a Frog Splash and stole the pinfall to a thunderous reaction from the crowd.
Your Winner and NEW Intercontinental Champion: Dominik Mysterio
We get another glimpse of the star-studded WrestleMania crowd as the camera pans to showcase a fresh round of celebrities in attendance, adding to the electric atmosphere of the night.
Randy Orton then makes his entrance to a thunderous ovation, stepping into the ring with an unmistakable sense of confidence. With a microphone in hand, Orton reminds the WWE Universe that this is his twentieth WrestleMania appearance. He says he promised he would be ready for anyone, and now the only thing left to find out is who will walk through the curtain looking for their WrestleMania momentâdelivered straight from an RKO.
In a shocking twist, the crowd erupts as TNA World Heavyweight Champion Joe Hendry emerges, making an unexpected and history-making appearance.
The match is officially set: Joe Hendry versus Randy Orton on the grandest stage of them all.
Randy Orton went for the RKO early on, but Joe Hendry managed to block it and countered with a deep two-count off a schoolboy roll-up, impressing Orton in the process. Orton fired back with a sharp front kick, but Hendry responded by bouncing off the ropes and delivering a double thrust. He followed up with a front chancery, which Orton reversed, only for Hendry to land another front kick and a well-executed neckbreaker.
The crowd rallied behind Hendry with a stomp-stomp-clap rhythm as he looked to capitalize, but Orton halted the momentum with a poke to the eye. Orton then hit his signature snap scoop powerslam, launched Hendry to the apron, and delivered his classic hanging DDT.
With the crowd rising, Orton entered that familiar zone and attempted another RKO, only for Hendry to block it once again. Hendry scooped Orton up into a fallaway slam and kipped up to his feet, striking a confident spin-snap-zoom pose for the camera.
But in the blink of an eyeâRKO outta nowhere! Orton finally nailed the move and secured the victory by pinfall.
Following the match, Orton gave Hendry a subtle nod of respectâan unspoken âokay kidââbefore rising to his feet.
Winner - Randy Orton
Logan Paulâs entrance at WrestleMania was introduced with a dramatically poetic video package, attempting to add weight to the moment. However, once the music hit and Paul appeared, the reception was notably underwhelming. Despite the usual fanfare, the crowdâs response was lukewarm at best. Three minutes later, AJ Styles made his entrance to a much warmer reaction from the audience, signaling a clear difference in fan enthusiasm.
Once the bell rang, the match opened with a measured pace. Both men worked holds and counters to feel each other out. Styles picked up the tempo early, landing a series of dropkicks that rocked Paul. He used the apron to his advantage, channeling some classic Fit Finlay tactics to temporarily blind Paul after he exited the ring. Styles followed that with a running knee on the apron, earning appreciation from the commentary team. However, Logan quickly retaliated by shoving Styles into the barricade. Styles rebounded moments later with a punishing Irish Whip that sent Paul crashing into the barricade before bringing the action back into the ring.
Logan Paul then took control, though his offense was often overshadowed by theatrics. Between roaring to the crowd, speaking into the camera, and executing minor heel tactics, he absorbed valuable ring time with taunts. Paul finally ascended to the top rope and hit a frog splash variation, dubbed the Paul From Grace, earning a two-count. Pat McAfee used the moment to promote Paulâs show on Max. Paul followed up with the Over Bomb and more taunting, even mimicking Hulk Hogan with exaggerated gestures. He mocked Styles with jabs, continuing to rile up the crowd and Styles alike. A kidney shot and a string of uppercuts put Styles back on the mat.
Paul remained more interested in audience interaction than the match itself. After sending Styles to the corner, he missed an opportunity when he assumed Styles had crashed into the turnbuckleâStyles had not. AJ capitalized, looking to hit a Styles Clash, but it was countered. Styles tried for a Phenomenal Forearm, but Paul yanked him off the ropes and followed with a rolling senton and a Lionsault for another near fall.
Momentum swung back and forth as Paul set Styles up on the top turnbuckle. AJ resisted multiple attempts before Paul landed a Buckshot-style lariat that floored him. Logan unleashed a barrage of offense in the corner and attempted a titanium-assisted punch. Styles again went for the Styles Clash. Both men were soon down, trading exhaustion and desperation. Styles reached the apron and launched for another Phenomenal Forearm, but Paul countered with raised knees.
In a surprising twist, Logan Paul hit Styles with his own move, the Styles Clash. Styles survived, rolled through, and hit a Styles Clash of his own to leave both men down on the mat. Just when it seemed the end was near, outside interference threatened the finish. âThat Jeff foolâ appeared with brass knuckles, but Karrion Kross made a surprise appearance to a loud ovation, intercepting the weapon. He offered the knuckles to Styles, urging him to âdo the right thing,â but Styles refused, striking Kross instead.
AJ returned to the apron to attempt another Phenomenal Forearm, but by that time, Paul had recovered. He caught Styles mid-air with his bionic right hand and covered him for the three-count.
Winner - Logan Paul
Becky Lynch made a surprise appearance as Lyra Valkyria's mystery partner, joining forces to challenge WWE Womenâs Tag Team Champions Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez at WrestleMania. The reigning champions entered in all-red gear, while Lyra arrived decked out in silver, white, and gold feathers. Her WrestleMania debut came with a massive boost as the crowd erupted at the reveal of âThe Man.â
The match kicked off with Becky Lynch squaring off against Liv Morgan. Liv quickly tagged out, and Raquel Rodriguez stepped in with some trash talk aimed at Lynch. Becky tagged in Lyra, and the newcomer immediately gained momentum with fast-paced offense. However, the tide turned when Liv shoved Lyra off the top rope, sending her right into a brutal boot from Raquel.
From there, Morgan and Rodriguez dominated, using frequent tags to isolate Valkyria in their corner. Despite taking a lot of damage, Lyra eventually landed a kick to Raquelâs head, giving her just enough time to make the tag to Lynch.
Becky Lynch entered the ring with fiery intensity, unleashing a flurry of offense. She hit a step-up Enziguri on Raquel, followed by a low-angle senton and a Bec-sploder on Liv. Lynch sent Morgan crashing outside with a baseball slide and followed up with an axe-handle strike before bringing the fight back inside the ring. After a kick to the gut, she nailed Liv with a driver.
As Lynch took some damage, Lyra returned to the fray. Raquel hit a Tornado DDT on Valkyria outside the ring, which distracted Liv just long enough for Becky Lynch to hit the Manhandle Slam and seal the win.
Your winners and new WWE Womenâs Tag Team Champions: Becky Lynch & Lyra Valkyria.
Stone Cold Steve Austin made a surprise appearance during Night 2 of WrestleMania, entering in classic fashion on his signature four-wheeler. In true Austin style, he rode with intensity, accidentally crashing into the ring barrier and unintentionally causing a nearby woman to fall into her seat. WWE President Nick Khan was spotted at ringside shortly after, checking on the woman to ensure she was alright.
Once in the ring, Austin took the microphone and announced that the attendance for the evening had exceeded 63,000 fans. However, never one to take things at face value, Austin immediately questioned the accuracy of the figure. He called for a recount right then and there, launching into his own version of tallying the crowdâcounting each person one-by-one and punctuating each number with a booming "What?" in his trademark fashion. The crowd played along, turning the segment into a memorable comedic moment that captured the unpredictability of Stone Cold.
John Cena and Cody Rhodes opened with a tense and methodical exchange. Cena circled while Rhodes bounced off the ropes, leading into a collar-and-elbow tie-up. After some early jockeying for control, Cody applied a side headlock, only for Cena to shoot him off the ropes and drop him with a shoulder block, sending Rhodes to the outside for a breather.
Back inside, Cena found himself in another side headlock before Rhodes transitioned into a hammerlock, forcing Cena to the ropes for a break. Another reset saw Cena gain the upper hand briefly with a waistlock, but Rhodes responded quickly. A dropkick sent Cena to the floor again, clearly showing some ring rust. Cody capitalized with a suicide dive that took Cena down hard.
Once back in the ring, Cena countered a whip and connected with a right hook before backing Rhodes into the corner and taking liberties with a dirty breakâstriking and stomping him. Cena smashed Cody into the turnbuckles and followed with a hard whip across the ring and a big boot before mocking the crowd with a strange half-curtsey.
Rhodes tried to fight back with body shots, but Cena stomped his foot and cracked him with a knee. Cena sent Cody into the corner and launched him with a catapult into the bottom rope, forcing Rhodes to roll out while dry-heaving. Back in the ring, Cena maintained the pressure with a big boot and a lariat, then followed with another, albeit clumsy, clothesline. Cody kicked out of the ensuing pin.
Cena applied a reverse chinlock, but Cody fought back with gut shots and punches. Cena reversed an Irish whip and delivered a sidewalk slam for a two-count. He ascended the ropes for an axhandle, but Rhodes caught him with a kick mid-air and fired back with a barrage of punches. Cena stopped the momentum with an eye poke and hammered away with double axe handles for another nearfall.
Then, in a surprising move, Cena hit a tornado DDT for a two-count. He began to channel his usual finishing sequence, landing a shoulder block, then pausing and smiling as the crowd caught on. He hit a fall-forward Blue Thunder Driver, but when he went for the Five Knuckle Shuffle, Rhodes countered with an eye poke and responded with a snap scoop powerslam. The Beautiful Disaster kick landed cleanly, firing Cody up. The Cody Cutter connected, but it was still not enough to put Cena away.
Rhodes went for a Bionic Elbow in tribute to his father, but Cena countered with a drop toehold into the Attitude Adjustmentâyet Cody kicked out. Cena tried again for the Shuffle and then hoisted Cody for another firemanâs carry, but Rhodes turned it into a sunset flip for two. Rhodes whipped Cena into the corner and hit a Flair Flip, climbing up top, only for Cena to crotch him on the turnbuckle.
Cena climbed up and delivered an Avalanche Attitude Adjustmentâstill not enough. With frustration etched on his face, he ascended the ropes for a Kenta Kobashi-style leg drop, but Cody countered with a powerbomb. He then hit an Avalanche Cody Cutter, but Cena would not stay down.
Rhodes tried to finish it, but Cena reversed into an STF. Cody clawed his way to the ropes, but Cena dragged him back to the center and locked it in again. On the verge of fading, Rhodes found a final burst of energy, kicked Cena off, and sent him crashing into referee Chad Patton! Cody hit Cross Rhodes, but there was no official to count.
Cena, ever the opportunist, pulled off the turnbuckle pad and rammed Rhodes into the exposed steelâtwice. He followed with another Attitude Adjustment and got the referee to count, but Cody still kicked out.
Suddenly, Travis Scott made his entrance to a roar of confusion. Cena welcomed him, holding Rhodes in place for Scott. But when Cody came to, he broke free and hit Cross Rhodesâonly for Scott to pull the referee out of the ring during the pin attempt. Scott entered the ring, attempting to slap Rhodes, but Cody blocked it and hit Cross Rhodes on him too, tossing Scottâs body out of the ring.
As Cody turned, Cena was waiting with the title belt. They tussled for control before Rhodes snatched it away. Cena begged off, only to land a low blow. With Rhodes stunned, Cena struck him with the belt and pulled referee Chad Patton back into the ring.
John Cena pinned Cody Rhodes with a lateral press to become the new WWE Undisputed Champion, marking the historic 17th world title win of his career.
JOHN CENA HAS SURPASSED RIC FLAIR AS A 17-TIME WORLD CHAMPION!!!!!!!!
