Potential Big Change To WWE Championship Match At WrestleMania 41 Update

WWE

An update has emerged on people within WWE reportedly wanting a big change to be made to a top WrestleMania 41 match.

While there are numerous potential title challenger for WWE Champion Cody Rhodes at the Show of Shows, previous reports indicated that Rhodes vs John Cena is the planned match.

With a Roman Reigns vs Seth Rollins vs CM Punk match reportedly also pencilled in, WrestleVotes recently reported that some in WWE would rather see Punk added to Rhodes vs Cena.

WrestleVotes has provided an update on this report, adding that a source has told them that this sentiment is ‘not shared by everyone,’ with it noted that the people who don’t want this WWE Championship three-way bout appear to be those holding the power.

Addressing WrestleMania 41 plans, WrestleVotes noted the following on Sportskeeda’s Backstage Pass Q&A:

“Continuing with more context on Tuesday night’s SportsKeeda show with Bill Apter regarding WrestleMania main event plans, we know that some in WWE would prefer a three-way match between Cody Rhodes, John Cena, and CM Punk as opposed to the rumored singles match between Rhodes and Cena and the rumored triple threat match between Punk, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns.

“According to a source, those feelings are not shared by everyone, with the expectation of this match being that it will not happen. We can confirm the Mania card is still being completed in totality.

“However, the high-level matches are likely set, so TC, the meat and potatoes of this little nugget, is that there are people that want Rhodes vs. Cena vs. Punk. However, it doesn’t seem like everybody wants it, and those people who don’t want it look to be holding the power.”
