WWE WrestleMania 41 Night 1 Saturday Predictions: CM Punk, Gunther, Jade Cargill and more

WWE WrestleMania 41 Saturday Live Stream Roman Reigns Seth Rollins CM Punk

WrestleMania 41 Night 1 kicks off tonight, April 19, 2025, from Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. With a stacked card featuring title bouts and a major grudge match in the main event, fans are eager to see how the action unfolds. Here are our predictions for each match on the Saturday lineup:​

WrestleMania Night 1 Predictions

World Heavyweight Championship: Gunther (c) vs. Jey Uso

Gunther’s dominant reign faces the challenge of Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso. While Uso has garnered significant fan support, Gunther’s recent brutal attack on Jey’s brother, Jimmy, has further intensified the feud. Despite the momentum behind Uso, we predict Gunther will retain his title, continuing his impressive run. ​

Prediction: Gunther retains the World Heavyweight Championship.​

Rey Mysterio vs. El Grande Americano

The mysterious El Grande Americano, suspected to be Chad Gable under the mask, squares off against the legendary Rey Mysterio. However, Mysterio’s participation is uncertain due to a reported leg injury sustained on SmackDown last night. If the match proceeds, Mysterio’s experience might give him the edge, but Americano’s recent momentum can’t be overlooked.​

Prediction: If the match occurs, El Grande Americano secures a controversial victory.​

World Tag Team Championships: The War Raiders (c) vs. The New Day

The New Day’s recent heel turn has added a new dimension to their characters, and a title win could solidify this transformation. The War Raiders have been reliable champions, but The New Day’s renewed aggression might tip the scales in their favor.

Prediction: The New Day capture the World Tag Team Championships.​

Jade Cargill vs. Naomi

Jade Cargill seeks retribution against Naomi, who was revealed as her mystery attacker. While Naomi’s recent character development has been compelling, Cargill’s dominant presence and rising star power suggest she will emerge victorious.

Prediction: Jade Cargill defeats Naomi.

United States Championship: LA Knight (c) vs. Jacob Fatu

LA Knight defends his title against the formidable Jacob Fatu of The Bloodline. Fatu’s impressive athleticism and lineage make him a significant threat. Despite Knight’s charisma and popularity, Fatu’s momentum might lead to a title change.

Prediction: Jacob Fatu becomes the new United States Champion

WWE Women’s Championship: Tiffany Stratton (c) vs. Charlotte Flair

Tiffany Stratton faces her toughest challenge yet against the decorated Charlotte Flair. While Flair’s experience is unmatched, Stratton’s recent performances have impressed fans . A victory here could cement her status as a top-tier competitor.

Prediction: Tiffany Stratton retains the WWE Women’s Championship.​

Main Event: Roman Reigns vs. CM Punk vs. Seth Rollins

In a highly anticipated triple threat match, Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins clash in what promises to be a WrestleMania classic. With Paul Heyman’s allegiance uncertain, the dynamics are unpredictable. We believe that Rollins might capitalize on the chaos to secure a monumental victory.

Prediction: Seth Rollins wins the main event.​
