The feud between The Miz and Rey Mysterio began at the 2022 Elimination chamber where Mysterio defeated Miz. Since then, Miz was having issues dealing with Rey and Dominik in a two-on-one situation after which he vowed on SmackDown that he’d bring a friend to help him even the odds and yes! That friend is the Social media star, Logan Paul who spent over a year with the idea of competing in WWE. And just last week, WWE confirmed that Miz and Paul will team up against The Mysterios in a tag-team match at WrestleMania 38.
◼ Edge vs AJ Styles

Edge is a WWE legend and was looking for someone to fight against at WrestleMania so he issued an open challenge for anyone to face him at Wrestling’s biggest stage. A week later, Style responded to that challenge by setting up a dream match. Once the bout was confirmed, Edge attacked Styles in the build up show to WrestleMania with two con-chair-tos as he demanded Style be the real version of himself instead of the guy who sat in Omos’ shadow in their tag-team bout.
◼ Becky Lynch vs Bianca Belair – Raw Women’s Championship

Becky Lynch returned at SummerSlam to beat Belair in seconds and become Raw Women’s Champion, and since then Belair has been waiting for a rematch. After Belair won the Elimination Chamber match last month, she booked her ticket for WrestleMania and now, she has the opportunity to settle things at WrestleMania and makeup for the poor performance she made in Lynch’s initial win over Belair.
◼ Charlotte Flair vs Ronda Rousey – SmackDown Women’s Championship

Ronda Rousey, who won the Women’s Royal Rumble match had an option to challenge either for the Raw or SmackDown Women’s championship. In an episode of SmackDown, Rousey made it official that she will challenge current SD champion Charlotte Flair at WrestleMania. This choice of opponent did not come as a surprise to any of us considering the rivalry between the two. This matchup definitely makes the kind of match WWE loves to position as a women’s main event in the grandest stage of all and it’s a match you simply should not miss.
◼ Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar – Title VS Title

It’s Champion VS Champion at WrestleMania 38!! After winning the Men’s Royal Rumble, Lesnar cemented his shot at Roman Reigns which was scheduled to take place on Day 1 but the bout was canceled when Reigns was tested positive for COVID-19. Lesnar would then go on to win the WWE Championship at Day 1, only for him to lose it at Royal Rumble when Reigns intervened in the fight to help Lashley win. Lesnar then did what he does best! He came back and won the title in the main event of Elimination Chamber, setting up a champion vs champion clash on the biggest show of the year.
