• Major WrestleMania 42 Spoiler
WWE is getting ready to shake things up for WrestleMania 42, and it looks like Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton are the main focus. While Drew McIntyre is the current Undisputed WWE Champion, PWInsider reports that WWE really wants to deliver a “Student vs. Teacher” Rhodes vs. Orton title match in Las Vegas.
To make this happen, insiders expect a huge title change this Friday on SmackDown when Cody challenges Drew. Insiders clarified that this move isn’t because of any issues with Drew’s performance, but rather because they want a fresh, high-stakes story. Having Randy Orton win the Elimination Chamber was the first step in this new direction, designed to give fans a big surprise heading into the spring.
As for Drew McIntyre, his future is a bit up in the air. WWE could turn the WrestleMania match into a triple threat, or they might have him face Jacob Fatu.
Another interesting — though less likely — idea being discussed is a match between Drew and SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis, which would finally mark Aldis’ first official wrestling match in a WWE ring. Aldis had a heated exchange with McIntyre after Elimination Chamber went off the air.
As we previously noted, Self Made Pro also reported that Cody is expected to win his 3rd Undisputed WWE Title this Friday.
Speaking of Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton, WWE has teased this match for the last two years, ever since Cody’s first reign as WWE Champion. They squared off at Night of Champions 2025, but it wasn’t for the title. On that night, The American Nightmare defeated The Viper to become the King of the Ring.

• “CM Punk, I’m gonna slap the f**k out of you” – Real Lif Bloodline Member After Last Night’s Infamous RAW Promo
Roman Reigns came out in the main event segment of last night’s RAW and World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk immediately interrupted him. Punk said he is tired and has bags under his eyes because he has to carry Roman’s bullsh*t for the next 7 weeks.
Punk said he is in Roman’s head because Roman said he hates him. Roman said the only reason Punk is on his radar is because Punk has the World Title. Roman said he knows the truth and knows everything about Punk’s b*tching and moaning backstage, despite acting very happy to be back in WWE in public. Roman said:
“You’re not CM Punk, you’re just a punk a$$ b*tch to me.”
Roman said that Punk is not fit to be champion and means nothing to him and after WrestleMania 42, he’s going put Punk on a retirement tour just like John Cena and milk every penny out of him, then send him down to NXT to help train the next generation and then The OTC will smash that next generation of those wrestlers.
Punk said Roman will be all alone at WrestleMania and will have no help from The Shield, The Bloodline or his Wiseman. Punk ended the night by saying:
“I’m gonna bury you next to your father.”
Real-life Bloodline member Zilla Fatu (son of late WWE veteran Umaga) saw this segment and said the following:
“I am not a CM Punk fan no more. I’m about to slap CM Punk when I see him. When I see you CM Punk, I’m gonna slap the f**k out of you.”
