Update On Potential Brock Lesnar Vs. GUNTHER WrestleMania 39 Match & Other Plans

WWE

More details have emerged on WWE’s plans for WrestleMania 39, following reports that Brock Lesnar vs GUNTHER is pencilled in for the event.

WrestlingNews.co previously stated that a dream match is currently planned for the April 2023 event, with The Beast reportedly set to square off with the current Intercontinental Champion.

In the latest edition of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer stated that this bout is ‘far from finalized’.

Meltzer explained that matches likely won’t be finalised for five more weeks, noting:

“Regarding stories that the WrestleMania card is finalized we are told that there are multiple ideas for Mania cards in discussion and every top act has multiple different things under discussion right now.

“There were a lot of reports this week regarding Lesnar vs. Gunther, but that is far from finalized. As noted before, the idea of Reigns vs. Rhodes one night and Dwayne Johnson another was talked about internally but I don’t expect that to happen either.

“But anything can happen because things probably aren’t going to be finalized for about five more weeks depending upon many different things such as a final word on whether or not Johnson will or won’t do the show as well as other celebrities and the top spots have to be adjusted based on that.” 

WrestleMania 39 will air across April 1-2, 2023 from California’s SoFi Stadium.

It will be the first WrestleMania event booked under the Triple H WWE regime, unless Vince McMahon makes a return to the company, which he reportedly wants to do.
