On commentary, Michael Cole announced that John Cena versus Austin Theory would be the first match of WrestleMania weekend, kicking off the night on WrestleMania Saturday.
With WrestleMania 39 set to take place over two nights in Los Angeles, California on April 1 and April 2, 2023, there is still a lot left to be announced regarding the event.
