All superstars confirmed for WWE Wrestlepalooza 2025: John Cena, Cody Rhodes, Brock Lesnar, CM Punk & more

The PLE will kick off an era for WWE!

The Stamford-based promotion is currently preparing for the first Premium Live Event on ESPN. The first-ever Wrestlepalooza will kick off the ESPN era this weekend. The event is set for Saturday, September 20, 2025, at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, Indiana

Multiple big names, including John Cena, Brock Lesnar, AJ Lee, CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Becky Lynch, and Seth Rollins, among others, are set to compete on the show.

The show on September 20 is the exact same day as AEW All Out in Toronto and will mark the first instance of a main roster PLE going head-to-head with AEW.

The name Wrestlepalooza was originally used for an ECW event series that ran from 1995 to 2000. Its most prominent edition was the 1998 pay-per-view, headlined by Shane Douglas defending the ECW World Heavyweight Championship against Al Snow.

Iyo Sky and Stephanie Vaquer are set to battle it out for the vacant Women’s World title, while The Usos (Jimmy & Jey Uso) are teaming up to take down Bron Breakker and Bronson Reed.

In his first and only appearance at the PLE, John Cena will take on Brock Lesnar. The two stars will collide in a singles match for the final time, ahead of Cena’s planned retirement.

The match will be the first one-on-one match between the two stars since 2014. Furthermore, it will be Lesnar’s first match since SummerSlam 2023, where he suffered defeat at the hands of Cody Rhodes.

A mixed-tag team match has also been announced for the show, where CM Punk will team up with AJ Lee to take on Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch. The two real-life couples will look to settle their feud in Lee’s first match in over a decade.

Additionally, Undisputed WWE Champion Cody Rhodes is set for his first title defense against Drew McIntyre at the PLE. Rhodes recaptured the title at SummerSlam 2025, pinning John Cena in the rematch.
