WrestleMania 42 is going to be the biggest event of this season, and it is only 5 months away. No matches for the event are confirmed yet, obviously, but it looks like some of the matches for this upcoming Big event are already quite clear. One of them is the World Heavyweight Championship match, the title that is presently held by CM Punk.
Previously, the rumoured World Heavyweight Championship match for WrestleMania 42 was completely different from what is rumoured right now. The previous champion Seth Rollins was rumoured to be scheduled to defend the Championship against Roman Reigns, who was also the favourite to win the men's Royal Rumble match of 2026.
Who will challenge CM Punk for the World Heavyweight title at WrestleMania 42?
But Seth Rollins suffered a major shoulder injury at the Crown Jewel event while competing against Cody Rhodes. This injury will reportedly keep him out of action for a long time, and he will even miss out on Mania 42. It is quite unfortunate that he is completely out of the World Heavyweight Championship picture from the event, despite he did an excellent job throughout this year.
CM Punk won the World Heavyweight Championship on November 1
CM Punk won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship after the injury of Seth Rollins, and it looks like he is going to keep the Championship at least until Mania 42. But who is going to be his opponent at the biggest event of them all? From the present scenario, it looks like it is going to be Bron Breakker who will challenge CM Punk for the title at WrestleMania 42.
Bron Breakker looks to be challenging him for the title at WrestleMania 42
A large number of fans were unhappy when Bron Breakker was not involved in the Battle Royale for the no 1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship, which was won by Jey Uso. But it was reported that he will win his first WWE World title at a big stage and not at a small stage like Saturday Night's Main Event.
Things became even clearer when Breakker pinned CM Punk War Games match at Survivor Series to pick up the victory for his side. Since he pinned the World Champion, he will reportedly get a world title shot soon. But it also looks like Breakker will also get the opportunity to challenge him for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 42.
