#7. Stephanie Vaquer vs. Liv Morgan (Women’s World Championship match)
Stephanie Vaquer will put her Women’s World Championship on the line against Liv Morgan.
The Miracle Kid has been on high since her return from injury at Survivor Series: WarGames 2025. This year, she won the Women’s Royal Rumble Match and chose Vaquer as her opponent for WrestleMania.
The rivalry between the two has become increasingly personal on Monday Night RAW. La Primera, too, has gained significant momentum since capturing the Women’s World Title late last year. She appears to have strong support from fans in her ongoing feud with Morgan.
Hence, it’s likely the creative team could book her to retain the gold at The Show of Shows.
#6. Drew McIntyre vs. Jacob Fatu (Unsanctioned match)
Drew McIntyre has established himself as one of the top heels in the Stamford-based promotion. He is currently in an intense rivalry with Jacob Fatu on SmackDown.
After McIntyre dropped the Undisputed WWE Championship with Cody Rhodes on the blue brand, likely ending their rivalry, he looks to do the same with Fatu on Night One of WrestleMania 42 in an Unsanctioned match.
Given that the company faced severe backlash from fans for stripping The Scottish Warrior of the title just a few weeks before The Show of Shows, there is a strong possibility that they might have him win in the grudge match against The Samoan Werewolf at WrestleMania 42 to make up for it.
#5. AJ Lee vs. Becky Lynch (Women’s Intercontinental Championship bout)
AJ Lee has been at odds with Becky Lynch since her return to WWE late last year. She has defeated Lynch in all their encounters. She even made The Man submit to her Black Widow to win the Women’s Intercontinental Championship at Elimination Chamber Premium Live Event in February.
It appears that Lee doesn’t intend to have a long run in WWE. Therefore, she might lose the Women’s Intercontinental Title to Becky Lynch at WrestleMania 42 to allow her to step away.
Additionally, this would give Lynch her first victory over The Black Widow.
#4. Seth Rollins vs. Gunther
Gunther made an unexpected return on the March 30 episode of Monday Night RAW and attacked Seth Rollins.
The Visionary was attacking Paul Heyman with a steel chair and was about to hit The Oracle with another devastating Stomp. However, The Ring General suddenly pulled Rollins out of the ring without warning and brutally assaulted him.
The duo is set to square off at WrestleMania 42 Night One. Since it will be Seth Rollins’ first match since his return from injury, WWE will likely book him for a stellar victory over Gunther. Additionally, The Ring General has been heavily promoted and pushed by the company over the past few months.
Therefore, a loss at WrestleMania wouldn’t be as damaging for the Career Killer as it might be for The Visionary.
#3. Nia Jax & Lash Legend vs. Bayley & Lyra Valkyria vs. Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss vs. Nikki & Brie Bella (Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Championship match)
Nia Jax & Lash Legend (The Irresistible Forces) are set to defend their WWE Women’s Tag Team Championship in a Fatal Four-Way Match at WrestleMania 42.
Their challengers include Bayley & Lyra Valkyria, Charlotte Flair & Alexa Bliss, and The Bella Twins (Nikki & Brie Bella). The multi-team rivalry has involved an intense and chaotic build-up, with the champions frequently attacking their opponents after matches.
Fans could see Bayley and Valkyria walk out of ‘Mania 42 with the tag titles. While The Bella Twins would have been a good pick, they have done it all in WWE and do not need any titles on their shoulders.
On the other hand, The Role Model and Valkyria have faced significant setbacks in their respective careers lately. Crowning them on The Grandest Stage of Them All as champions would help them regain some momentum.
#2. LA Knight, Jey Uso, and Jimmy Uso vs. Logan Paul, Austin Theory, and IShowSpeed (Six-Man Tag Team match)
IShowSpeed and LA Knight got involved in the World Tag Team Championship match between The Usos and The Vision’s Austin Theory and Logan Paul last week on WWE RAW. Speed appeared again this week and once again inserted himself into the feud between The Vision and Knight.
The YouTuber assisted Theory during his singles match against LA Knight, making his alignment with The Vision unmistakable after claiming several times that the brass knuckle incident on March 30 on the red brand was an accident. They are now set to clash at WrestleMania in a Six-Man Tag Team match.
Given the injury setbacks The Vision faced earlier this year, Triple H and Co. could book them for the victory to enable them to regain momentum as one of the formidable factions on the red brand.
That’s not all. Additionally, this victory would also demonstrate that Austin Theory and Logan Paul winning the World Tag Team Championship was not just luck.
#1. Randy Orton vs. Cody Rhodes (Undisputed WWE Championship)
Randy Orton appears to be more dangerous and desperate in his ongoing feud with his former student, Cody Rhodes. He is set to face Cody for the Undisputed WWE Championship in the main event of Night One of WrestleMania 42.
Given that The Viper hasn’t held either of the top titles for a long time now, it makes sense for the creative team to have him walk out of ‘Mania as a 15-time WWE World Champion.
Besides, fans appear to be tired of The American Nightmare constantly being in the world championship scene, and a title change would be welcome by the WWE Universe.
