Fans will soon have that answer.

If you want to get tapped in before this weekend's big event, here is what you need to know.
When is WrestleMania 41?
WrestleMania 41 is on Saturday, April 19, and Sunday, April 20.
WrestleMania 41 start time
WrestleMania 41 will begin each night at 6 p.m. CT. A kickoff show typically takes place before the event, but has not been announced.
How to watch WrestleMania 41
The event will be streamed on Peacock, but you must have their premium or premium-plus subscription to watch. Internationally, it will be available on Netflix in most markets.
Where is WrestleMania 41?
WrestleMania 41 will take place at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. Home of the NFL's Las Vegas Raiders, it will be the first WrestleMania at the stadium, and the first one to take place in the city since WrestleMania 9 in 1993.
What is a heel?
In professional wrestling, a heel is the villainous character — the one fans love to hate. Heels are the antagonists to the heroic faces (or babyfaces), and they often break rules, cheat, or display arrogant and cowardly behavior to generate heat (negative reactions from the audience).

John Cena made a shocking heel turn at WWE's Elimination Chamber event in Toronto on March 1, 2025, marking the first time in his career that he embraced a villainous role. Fans were stunned as Cena aligned himself with The Rock and launched a brutal attack on Cody Rhodes, the reigning Undisputed WWE Champion. Cena was the Captain America of wrestling. His unexpected shift was especially surprising, given Cena's long-standing reputation as one of WWE's most beloved faces.
What is a babyface?
In professional wrestling, a babyface is the heroic character — the one fans are meant to cheer for. Babyfaces typically follow the rules, display sportsmanship, and stand up against villainous heels. They are often portrayed as role models, embodying traits like perseverance, honesty, and resilience.
