WWE WrestleMania 41: How to Watch and What to Expect From Wrestling's Biggest Event

For the past four decades, a singular event has defined professional wrestling as we know it: WrestleMania.

And the 2025 version of the iconic event is almost here!

WrestleMania 41 is just around the corner, and the WWE Universe has plenty of reason to celebrate. Call it WWE's Super Bowl if you must, but the reality is that it's bigger than any spectacle the NFL has ever put on. WrestleMania is truly larger than life, and the premiere WWE Premium Live Event has evolved into a two-night affair that has become the literal definition of "appointment viewing" — even if you don't consider yourself a WWE fan.

Here's everything you need to know about WrestleMania 41 — and how to tune in!

That means two gigantic main events and plenty of unbelievable action that couldn't possibly be held in just one evening's time.

WWE has set a start time for 7/6c on April 19 — and as usual, there will be plenty of pre-show happenings live from Las Vegas for fans to tune into as well!

(In other words, it's time to reserve your favorite spot on the couch, like, now.)

For years, Peacock has been the exclusive home for WWE PLEs, from Royal Rumble to Survivor Series and every event in between. Even better, any fan who needs a refresher on the latest storylines ahead of WrestleMania 41 can watch past PLEs streaming on-demand on Peacock as well!

Whether you plan on catching WrestleMania 41 on a mobile device or your TV at home, watching is as easy as logging in to Peacock.

Longtime fans remember the last time WrestleMania came to Vegas — WrestleMania IX, to be exact, which saw Hulk Hogan unexpectedly win the WWE Championship from Yokozuna outside Caesar's Palace:

As epic as that moment was, there's no doubt that WrestleMania 41 will be the home to even more legendary moments on April 19 and 20!

What can WWE fans expect from WrestleMania 41?

From top to bottom, the announced match lineup for WrestleMania 41 looks like an all-timer. All of the top championships will be on the line in one way or another, and the WWE Superstars who walk into Las Vegas holding gold may not necessarily be the same Superstars who walk out of Sin City with those same titles!

While every match announced thus far could headline either night of WrestleMania, all eyes will undoubtedly be on the Undisputed WWE Championship match between the defending champion Cody Rhodes and the winner of the men's Elimination Chamber match — John Cena.

Ever since Cena sold his soul and embraced his inner villain at Elimination Chamber, fans have realized that he's not just on a retirement tour — he's on a mission to "ruin" wrestling as we know it:

Of course, Cena's new mission statement doesn't exactly align with the beliefs of The American Nightmare Cody Rhodes.

So, at WrestleMania 41, the champion isn't just defending the most prestigious title in professional wrestling against the 16-time former champ — he's protecting all of WWE against someone who wants nothing more than to burn everything to the ground.

Ultimately, while fans worldwide eagerly anticipate the next chapter in the unpredictable Rhodes-Cena storyline, the reality is that the entire two-night mega-event will be filled with unforgettable moments, twists of fate, and unreal in-ring feats of athleticism.

In other words, WrestleMania 41 will be one for the ages.

You can tune in to Peacock to watch WrestleMania 41 on Saturday, April 19 & Sunday, April 20. In the meantime, catch up on all things WWE Universe on Peacock.
