WrestleMania 41 Shakes Things Up With Shocking Wins and One Huge Betrayal

Wrestlemania 41: Start Time, Matches, And Everything You Need To Know

LAS VEGAS, NV — So, WrestleMania 41 just happened—and wow, did it deliver. Whether you were cheering on your favorite or just tuning in for the drama, this year’s big show in Las Vegas had everything: surprise wins, new champions, and even a little backstage betrayal that got everyone talking.

It wasn’t just about the titles either. The crowd was loud, the stakes were high, and yeah—Netflix had a moment that left fans scratching their heads. Let’s break down the highlights without sounding like a commentator stuck in 1995.

If you missed Night 1 of WrestleMania 41, let’s just say… you missed a lot.

Let’s kick it off with Jey Uso, who finally stepped out of Roman Reigns’ shadow and took home the World Heavyweight Championship. Yup, Jey submitted Gunther—which, honestly, was wild. Gunther’s known for being a powerhouse, but Jey hung in there, played it smart, and made him tap. Big moment for Jey fans.

Then came the triple-threat main event with Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Seth Rollins. Sounds epic already, right? But here’s the kicker: Paul Heyman turned on everyone and helped Seth Rollins win the Undisputed WWE Championship. No joke. The guy ditched both Reigns and Punk mid-match. Talk about betrayal. Heyman siding with Rollins? That’s gonna be a storyline for weeks.

Jacob Fatu also made a name for himself by beating LA Knight for the U.S. Championship. Fatu might be new to the scene, but he’s clearly not here to play around. It felt like WWE was saying, “Yeah, this guy? He’s next.”

On the women’s side, Tiffany Stratton held her ground and beat Charlotte Flair to keep her WWE Women’s Championship. Flair put up a fight (as always), but Stratton is proving she’s not just hype—she’s the real deal.

And for the tag teams, The New Day (yes, still kicking!) beat The War Raiders to grab their 12th tag team title. Crazy, right? These guys have been around forever and still manage to keep things fresh.

But it wasn’t all cheers and titles. Let’s talk about Chad Gable, who showed up as “El Grande Americano” and cheated his way to a win against Rey Fenix. The dude literally used a loaded mask. Fans weren’t happy. Honestly, the whole thing felt shady, especially with the recent WWE–AAA drama going on.

Oh, and Jade Cargill? She beat Naomi, and let’s just say she’s becoming a serious force in the women’s division.

Now, about that Netflix mess-up. During Jey Uso’s big win, fans watching on Netflix saw Survivor Series graphics flash across the screen instead of WrestleMania visuals. Like… what? It was weird. Twitter exploded. Memes were born. It’ll probably be remembered just as much as some of the matches.

Looking ahead, Night 2 is set to be just as crazy. We’ve got Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena for the Undisputed WWE Championship, and a Triple Threat Women’s Title Match with IYO SKY, Bianca Belair, and Rhea Ripley. No way that doesn’t deliver.

So yeah, WrestleMania 41 came in hot and made some serious noise. If Night 1 is any hint of what’s to come, Sunday’s gonna be wild.
