According to Wrestlevotes, WWE management has reportedly begun outlining preliminary creative plans for WrestleMania 43.
Internal sources indicate that initial card discussions are already underway, with a high-profile showdown between Roman Reigns and Oba Femi emerging as one of the leading possibilities. The potential matchup has reportedly gained traction behind the scenes, with several figures within the company viewing Reigns versus Femi as a viable main event anchor for the two-night showcase.
Top Match Concepts and Division Highlights Under Discussion
Beyond the proposed marquee battle, creative pitches are exploring additional major rivalries and focal points for the international card:
- CM Punk vs. Cody Rhodes: WWE creative is considering revisiting the high-profile rivalry between CM Punk and Cody Rhodes, positioning a rematch as another top attraction on the broadcast.
- Rhea Ripley’s Role: On the women’s side, there is significant interest in featuring Rhea Ripley as a primary focal point, contingent upon her receiving full medical clearance in time.
- Roster Depth: Key figures including Reigns, Femi, Punk, Rhodes, and Ripley are expected to form the core framework of the event as creative directions evolve.
As with all early planning stages, internal directions remain subject to change as television storylines and roster availability dictate over the coming year. WrestleMania 43 is scheduled for April 10 and April 11, 2027, live from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, marking the first time the flagship event takes place outside North America.
