I was thinking that's a possibility too.

That's the only way he loses imo.

Personally, I'd still pull the trigger on him
I think i'd run with Knight tbh, let Solo & Jacob do their split without the title being involved.

Jacob Fatu is an absolute price of shit who steals of charity, no way they should give him the title.

You talking about this?


The person missed the payment. Jacob didn't steal from them.

Tbh as much as I'm for Jacob he doesn't need the u.s title as he's just that damn good. Man's a once in a generation talent and he's only been here nearly a year. Plenty of time to win belts and such. Let him feud with Solo and see who's the Real leader of the New Bloodline as the story of the split could be a way of setting the tension straight and thus a winner has to emerge, that's gonna take a good while yet.

Nah give Jacob the belt. IMO he should be the next Gunther. Give him a 1 + year reign with a mid card title and then have him win the world title

Please no more year long title reigns, they're so unnecessary.

20250407_Match_WM41_ReyMysterioAmericano_16x9_Date--e93e2d2f8f6d02364a6489cb9f1e6ecd.jpg

Rey Mysterio vs. El Grande Americano​

Rey Mysterio will go one-on-one with El Grande Americano inside Allegiant Stadium at WrestleMania 41.

Since "debuting" on Monday Night Raw, El Grande Americano has impressed with his Lucha skills, but his attitude has drawn the ire of maybe the greatest luchador ever, WWE Hall of Famer Rey Mysterio.

El Grande Americano disrespected Mysterio's LWO partner Dragon Lee by unmasking him during a match. He also put a piece of metel in his mask and took out both Dragon Lee and Mysterio to win a Six-Man Tag Team Match. against The LWO.

Tired of the disrespect, Mysterio has challenged El Grande Americano to a match at WrestleMania 41.

Women's World Champion IYO SKY vs. Bianca Belair vs. Rhea Ripley​

In a stunning turn of events, the Women's World Championship will be decided in an epic Triple Threat Match when IYO SKY defends her title against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley at WrestleMania.

After returning from injury, Ripley regained the Women's World Title from Liv Morgan on the Netflix premiere of Raw and quickly reestablished herself as a dominant champion. Her WrestleMania challenger would be decided inside the Elimination Chamber, where Belair emerged victorious.

Just when it seemed like that showdown was set, the unthinkable happened as SKY used commotion between Ripley and Belair to capture the Women's World Title from The Eradicator on Raw. Not only did The Genius of the Sky win the championship, but she was in line to replace Ripley in defending the title against The EST on The Grandest Stage of Them All.

Outraged that Belair's presence had played a roll in her losing the title, Ripley attacked SKY and Belair and signed the contract. Nevertheless, Raw General Manager Adam Pearce refused to add Ripley to the title match at The Showcase of the Immortals.

It was soon revealed, however, that Ripley had a rematch clause in her contract that would give her the opportunity to reclaim the title from SKY. In that matchup on Raw, Belair was named special guest referee, and she ruled their championship match a no-contest after being taken out by both competitors.

With no options left, Pearce decided that the Superstars would square off in a Triple Threat Match for the Women's World Title at WrestleMania.



20250322_Match_WM41_Intercontinental_16x9_Date--d845ead14b362309eedb0829ea228bd4.jpg

Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker vs. Penta vs. Finn Bálor vs. Dominik Mysterio​

At WrestleMania, the Intercontinental Championship will be defended in a Fatal 4-Way Match for the first time ever at The Showcase of the Immortals.

Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker will clash with Penta and The Judgement Day’s Finn Bálor and “Dirty” Dominik Mysterio.

Breakker has earned singles victories against all three competitors and has retained the title against Penta and Bálor, but now he’s primed to defend his championship in what is sure to be a can’t-miss Fatal 4-Way Match.

Penta will compete at WrestleMania for the first time and has yet to be pinned or submitted since making his electric debut in January.

Bálor and Mysterio have been butting heads in recent weeks, leaving plenty of intrigue as to what will happen when each challenges for the Intercontinental Title in the same match.

Bálor is a two-time Intercontinental Champion, whereas Mysterio and Penta will be looking for their first Intercontinental Title reign.

Which man wall walk out of Las Vegas with the Intercontinental Title?​

Bianca Belair has a statistical advantage in the Women's World Championship match as she has never lost at WrestleMania. Meanwhile, Iyo Sky has never won at WrestleMania.

For the I-C Championship, Bron Breakker has dominated but has a mixed W-L record. Penta is an X-Factor in this being new to WWE. Finn Balor has not won a PPV Match without a tag team partner since Extreme Rules 2022 against Edge while Dirty Dom has never won a PPV match without a tag team partner.

Think Iyo will retain her belt as Rhea and Bianca keep forgetting about her and that's going to cost the both of them.

Gunther and Jey might open Night 1.

Depending on what night the IC title goes on
