WrestleMania Saturday or WrestleMania 39 Night One (April 1) Match Card

- United States Championship Match: Austin Theory (c) vs. John Cena

- SmackDown Women's Championship Match: Charlotte Flair (c) vs. Rhea Ripley

- Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship Match: The Usos (c) vs. Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn

- Trish Stratus and WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Lita & Becky Lynch vs. Damage CTRL (Bayley, Dakota Kai & IYO SKY)

- Seth Rollins vs. Logan Paul

- Rey Mysterio vs. Dominik Mysterio

- Men's WrestleMania Showcase Fatal-4-Way Tag Team Match: Braun Strowman & Ricochet vs. The Street Profits vs. Alpha Academy vs. The Viking Raiders

WrestleMania Sunday or WrestleMania 39 Night Two (April 2) Match Card

- Undisputed WWE Universal Championship Match: Roman Reigns (c) vs. Cody Rhodes

- RAW Women's Championship Match: Bianca Belair (c) vs. Asuka

- Intercontinental Championship Match: Gunther (c) vs. Drew McIntyre vs. Sheamus

- Hell In A Cell Match: Edge vs. "The Demon" Finn Balor

- Brock Lesnar vs. Omos

- Women's WrestleMania Showcase Fatal-4-Way Match: Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler vs. Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez vs. Natalya & Shotzi vs. Chelsea Green & Sonya Deville

While the match orders are yet to be confirmed, the Night Two Main Event is a no-brainer where Cody Rhodes looks to finish his story against Roman Reigns and become the first in his family to hold the top-most prize in sports entertainment.

As for Night One, the reported main event should be the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship Match between The Usos and Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn. WWE is currently promoting this match as the "Biggest Tag Team Match of all time".

This is similar to last year's Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns title unification match being the biggest match in WrestleMania history since WWE and Universal Titles were on the line for the first time. At WrestleMania 39, the Raw and SmackDown tag titles will be hanging in the balance in the same match.

KO and Sami are the reported odds-on favorite to end The Usos' historic title reign, this weekend, as per the released betting odds. The Bloodline leader Roman Reigns is also the underdog against Cody Rhodes heading into the Show of Shows.

In more news from WWE's confirmed match card for WrestleMania 39, Bobby Lashley vs. Bray Wyatt has been scrapped. The match-status was up in the air for several weeks due to Wyatt's absence from WWE programme due to undisclosed reasons.

Ringside News previously reported via a reliable source which informed the following, "No one here knows - top-level information, and it's not flowing down." Another exclusive tenured source said that The Eater of the World is again dealing with "health Issues."

Also, a match-graphic regarding the United States Championship Match between John Cena and Austin Theory made some confusion about its placement on the card. However, it's still slated to commence WrestleMania 39 Night One.

Sean Ross Sapp noted behind Fightful's paywall that Cena vs. Theory's match placement hasn't changed and that they're still planned to open up Night One on April 1. No matches will be there on the WrestleMania 39 Kick-Off Pre-Show.
