Alright Toss Boss Nation, it’s official: WrestleMania 42 is HERE. Two nights in Las Vegas, 13 matches, and enough chaos to make your group chat unreadable for a week.

Allegiant Stadium. April 18 & 19. Streaming live on ESPN Unlimited in the US and Netflix everywhere else.

Both nights kick off at 6 PM ET / 3 PM PT. (Confirmed official timing — first hour on regular ESPN, rest on ESPN Unlimited.)

Below is the full Night 1 and Night 2 card, and yes—your Toss Boss is putting picks on paper. If I’m wrong, no I’m not. If I’m right, I’ve always been right.

One more day-of wrinkle: Nikki Bella’s status is in question, and Paige replacing her is still a rumor—but PWInsider reported Friday that Paige has re-signed with WWE, so keep your head on a swivel during that Women’s Tag Title match.

Night 1 (Saturday, April 18): “Violence First, Titles Later, Feelings Never”

Unsanctioned: Jacob Fatu vs. Drew McIntyre

Toss Boss Pick: Jacob Fatu

Unsanctioned means “no rules,” which is basically Jacob Fatu’s love language. Drew’s a warrior, but Fatu fights like the rulebook owes him money.

iShowSpeed, Logan Paul & Austin Theory vs. LA Knight, Jimmy Uso & Jey Uso (Six-Man Tag)

Toss Boss Pick: LA Knight & The Usos

The Usos in a big tag match is automatic. Add LA Knight and you’ve got timing, chemistry, and crowd control. The other team has talent, sure—but also the kind of energy that leads to one mistake and a highlight clip titled “WHAT WAS HE THINKING?”

Gunther vs. Seth Rollins

Toss Boss Pick: Gunther

Seth is chaos in designer gear. Gunther is a walking “no.” If this turns into a war of who can take more punishment, Gunther treats pain like it’s a warm-up set.

WWE Women’s Tag Team Titles (Fatal Four-Way): Nia Jax & Lash Legend (c) vs. Brie Bella & Paige (rumored) vs. Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair vs. Lyra Valkyria & Bayley

Toss Boss Pick: Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair

Fatal Four-Way rules = maximum mess. Bliss thrives in mess. Charlotte thrives on big stages. That’s the kind of combo that steals the win while everyone else is busy surviving.

And here’s the spice: Paige replacing Nikki is still a rumor, but it’s not coming out of thin air. PWInsider reported Friday that Paige has re-signed with WWE, and if she really walks out as Brie’s partner, that’s an instant WrestleMania moment. In a match this chaotic, she wouldn’t need a long warm-up—she’d just need one opening to flip the whole ending.

Women’s Intercontinental Title: AJ Lee (c) vs. Becky Lynch

Toss Boss Pick: Becky Lynch

Becky in a WrestleMania title match is basically a cheat code. AJ’s a legit champ, but WrestleMania loves a “Becky rises” moment.

Women’s World Title: Stephanie Vaquer (c) vs. Liv Morgan

Toss Boss Pick: Liv Morgan

Liv’s been living in chaos long enough to own it. This feels like the night she turns “almost” into “finally.”

Undisputed WWE Title: Cody Rhodes (c) vs. Randy Orton (w/ Pat McAfee)

Toss Boss Pick: Randy Orton (NEW champion)

Let’s be clear: this isn’t “Randy’s greatest hits.” This is 2009 Orton—cold, calculated, and enjoying every second of being the bad guy.

And Pat McAfee being in Orton’s corner is not decoration. That’s a full-time distraction department. Pat’s going to be running his mouth, pulling attention, creating openings—basically doing side quests so Randy can finish the main mission.

I’m calling it: Orton wins dirty.

Pat causes the perfect distraction, Randy goes low blow, ref’s out of position, then RKO like a jump scare. Cody’s getting robbed in 4K, and Orton’s walking out with the title like he just reinvented villainy.

Night 2 (Sunday, April 19): “The Card That Ends Friendships”

Oba Femi vs. Brock Lesnar

Toss Boss Pick: Oba Femi

If WWE is pushing Oba to the moon, this is the rocket launch. Brock is the final boss you beat when you’re done being “next up” and ready to be “main event, right now.” Oba surviving the suplex storm and winning is the loudest statement possible.

Intercontinental Title Ladder Match: Penta (c) vs. Je’Von Evans vs. JD McDonagh vs. Dragon Lee vs. Rusev vs. Rey Mysterio

Toss Boss Pick: Penta retains

Ladder matches are chaos math. Penta is built for chaos. He doesn’t need to pin anybody—he just needs one perfect moment while everyone else is falling off ladders like it’s a career choice.

Demon Finn Bálor vs. Dominik Mysterio

Toss Boss Pick: Demon Finn Bálor

If Demon Finn shows up at WrestleMania, it’s usually not to lose. Dom’s going to talk. Demon Finn’s going to respond with consequences.

United States Title: Sami Zayn (c) vs. Trick Williams

Toss Boss Pick: Trick Williams

This feels like a star-making win. Sami’s the perfect champ to elevate someone because he makes you earn it. Trick leaving WrestleMania with gold screams “welcome to the top tier.”

WWE Women’s Title: Jade Cargill (c) vs. Rhea Ripley

Toss Boss Pick: Rhea Ripley

Jade looks like a champion. Rhea feels like the final boss of the division. If you want the most dominant champ coming out of WrestleMania, it’s Rhea.

World Heavyweight Title: CM Punk (c) vs. Roman Reigns

Toss Boss Pick: Roman Reigns

Punk will make it gritty, personal, and dramatic. Roman will make it feel inevitable. This is the kind of match where the winner doesn’t just get the title—they get the whole landscape.

Toss Boss Final Word

WrestleMania 42 is STACKED and it’s happening right now. Night 1 ends with Orton stealing the crown with Pat McAfee in full villain mode, and Night 2 has Oba potentially leveling up by beating Brock. That’s not a weekend—that’s a wrestling earthquake.

Now talk to me: which match steals the whole show, and which one is guaranteed to cause the loudest arguments online?
