Top five WWE stars who could be competing in final WrestleMania match this year

WrestleMania 41 is just a few days away

WWE WrestleMania 41 will be held next weekend in Las Vegas, Nevada. John Cena will compete in his farewell WrestleMania bout, against Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Championship in the main event.

There are more stars on this year’s lineup who may not get another chance to play at The Show of Shows. It is the promotion’s biggest show of the year, and it might be the last chance for numerous stars to have their WrestleMania moment.

The following are five WWE Superstars who might compete in their final WrestleMania match this year.

5. Randy Orton

Randy Orton was set to face Kevin Owens at WWE WrestleMania 41, but that will no longer be the case. Owens stated on Friday night’s SmackDown that he had a neck issue that required surgery.

Following the terrible announcement, the Viper delivered an unexpected RKO to SmackDown GM Nick Aldis. Orton will most likely still compete on The Grandest Stage of Them All, and this might be the 45-year-old’s final fight at the company’s largest PLE of the year.

4. Sheamus

Sheamus competed in the Men’s Royal Rumble bout earlier this year before disappearing from WWE television. The veteran faced Intercontinental Champion Bron Breakker at a handful of WWE Live Events last month, but hasn’t been on RAW since defeating Ludwig Kaiser on January 13.

The Celtic Warrior might be confirmed as Kevin Owens’ replacement, facing Randy Orton at WrestleMania 41. The 47-year-old would be a fitting successor for The Prizefighter, and it might be his final chance to appear at The Showcase of the Immortals. Sheamus is currently not slated to participate in the tournament in Las Vegas later this month.

3. Rey Mysterio

Rey Mysterio will compete in a singles bout at this year’s WrestleMania. He will face El Grande Americano, who beat Dragon Lee on RAW this past Monday night. El Grande Americano concealed a steel plate behind his mask and used it as a weapon to beat the Latino World Order star.

This past Monday night, Mysterio contacted RAW General Manager Adam Pearce on the red brand and requested a bout with El Grande Americano. The veteran was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame a few years ago and might retire from in-ring action before next year’s WrestleMania.

2. CM Punk

CM Punk seemed to be on track for a big fight against Seth Rollins at WrestleMania XL last year, but a torn triceps sustained during the Men’s Royal Rumble battle stopped that from occurring. The Second City Saint will face Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns in the main event of WrestleMania 41’s Night 1 Triple Threat match.

It will be Punk’s first appearance in the main event of the year’s biggest show, and he became emotional when Paul Heyman told him the news. CM Punk has an injury history and is 46 years old. There is no assurance that the former AEW World Champion will be available to book at a future WWE WrestleMania.

1. AJ Styles

AJ Styles missed several months of action due to an injury before returning for the Men’s Royal Rumble bout. He was eliminated by Logan Paul at Royal Rumble 2025 and will face The Maverick at WrestleMania next weekend.

The veteran previously stated that he does not want to wrestle when he is 50, implying that he only has a few years remaining in his in-ring career. Following his fight with Logan Paul later this month, AJ Styles may not be able to participate at WrestleMania again.
