Friday Night SmackDown just wrapped up, and it’s official—CM Punk, Seth Rollins, and Roman Reigns are set to headline WrestleMania 41.
While it’s still unclear whether they will main event Night One or Night Two, fans are buzzing about one thing only: after 20 long years, CM Punk is finally getting his WrestleMania main event moment.
Last night on SmackDown, CM Punk signed the contract for a triple-threat match against Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins. But what he didn’t expect was that this moment would also make his lifelong dream come true.
Punk’s emotions seemed to spill over in tears when Paul Heyman revealed that he would officially main event WrestleMania. The announcement felt surreal—especially when Heyman said, “I know what you’re looking for.. You get to live your dream of all dreams. CM Punk, you are a WrestleMania main eventer.”

While the moment seemed awkward for Reigns, who watched as his own Wiseman comforted Punk, the segment remained free of chaos. Instead, it delivered pure drama, leaving the London crowd at the O2 Arena speechless.
As Punk carefully reviewed the contract, Heyman confirmed that their match would close the show at WrestleMania 41. Punk’s emotional reaction, Reigns’ laughter, and Rollins’ frustration only added to the hype for what is shaping up to be one of the biggest WrestleMania matches of all time.
CM Punk’s fans react to massive revelation they’ve been waiting for

Some are referring to it as the ideal moment, while others regard it as the definitive main event of WrestleMania. Plus, with Punk, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins in the mix, the excitement is unmatched right now.
