WWE pushed out a video on their social channels of Seth Rollins’ meeting with Vince McMahon about WrestleMania. McMahon informed Rollins that he will be a part of the show and is set to compete. Rollins’ opponent will be revealed when Rollins is in the ring.
For weeks, Rollins has attempted to find his way onto the WrestleMania card. He challenged both Kevin Owens and AJ Styles to replace either of them in their respective WrestleMania spots.
Which night Rollins is competing on was not announced. Former Ring of Honor owner Cary Silkin shared during a recent interview that he met up with Rollins and Owens on March 6th and Rollins told him who he’s facing at WrestleMania.
If Seth and Cody are their own main event on Night 1 of WrestleMania then Cody will be debuting during the second half of Coach Ks final Final Four game.

Who does Duke play……their biggest rival….
NORTH CAROLINA. Somewhere Kenny Omega smiles.
Also, this is like the worst time slot for Cody to return. I actually think this developed as such because they will put the Austin segment and Rousey match on in slots that do not go head to head with what is the biggest basketball game in easily the last 10 years.
If Fridays demo rating was any indicator Saturday will be a struggle. No doubt they’ll announce the most watched Mania in history which will probably be true alone on Sundays numbers. They’d never get away with this on traditional PPV
Anyone else think it could be a huge troll job and the Mania opponent is Shane McMahon. Maybe save Cody for RAW. WWE doing this would not be surprising at all
Honestly, Cody is a second class talent already before he even debuted. Based on when they plan to debut him. Like putting the title on somebody during the MNF stretch of a cal. Dead on arrival.
It’ll be very viewed afterwards but because not many will watch it live. Whether Saturday or Monday. Mondays going to have massive competition too.
First class talent got Sunday.
And before somebody points out Austin on Saturday - that is so people attend live. It’s not to push home viewership because that doesn’t actually matter to them.
