WWE's road to Wrestlemania is nearing its end for 2023. That’s right, the granddaddy of them all, WWE’s biggest annual event, is about to take over Southern California. WrestleMania 39 is back in Hollywood for a two-night spectacle on April 1 and 2. The second night is headlined by a massive match between WWE Undisputed Universal Champion Roman Reigns and 2023 Royal Rumble winner Cody Rhodes.

Former WWE Champion and Grand Slam winner The Miz will serve as the official host for the event.
