WrestleMania is the biggest night of the WWE calendar.

Tonight in Hollywood, live at SoFi Stadium, the likes of John Cena, Logan Paul and Brock Lesnar will be in action with the first night of the company’s epic annual doubleheader.

There are championships on the line, grudges to be settled and legends returning to the ring in front of tens of thousands of fans in California.

WWE likes to say anything can happen, and this weekend will be proof of that with room for title changes, surprise upsets, big returns and maybe some emotional farewells.

The company has streamlined WrestleMania in the best way in recent years, moving it to two nights with six or seven matches apiece, giving everything time to breathe and mean something.

As ever, we’ve put together our regular guide with all the matches, streaming details and more, and here’s everything you need to know about the show…

What can you expect from WWE WrestleMania 39? Predictions, John Cena, Logan Paul and more

WWE is kicking WrestleMania off with a bang as John Cena returns in the opening match to challenge rising star Austin Theory for the United States Title with so much on the line.

We could see Cena win (an appearance on the Raw after WrestleMania could serve to get the title back off him), although a win over the wrestling legend turned Hollywood superstar would do wonders for Theory’s career.

Seth Rollins and Logan Paul should deliver something special (Picture: WWE)

Logan Paul had revealed his contract was up at WrestleMania, although you’d assume he will sign a new deal with WWE given how well he’s adjusted to life in the ring.

Regardless, Seth Rollins needs a statement win, and getting one over on the controversial YouTuber would tick that box.

Damage CTRL should beat Lita, Becky Lynch and Trish Stratus to give them some much needed momentum, while Trish could always turn on her team to cause the loss (which in turn could lead to Lita and Becky defending their titles on night two).

It feels like Rhea Ripley’s time to dethrone Charlotte Flair to become SmackDown Women’s Champion, while Rhea’s Judgment Day partner Dominik Mysterio may cause a major upset against his legendary dad Rey.

Also, look for Street Profits to continue to build momentum in the WrestleMania Showcase match, which will absolutely deliver something special with the talent involved.
