SPOILER: Creative Favorites For Three Title Matches At WWE WrestleMania 42

The creative favorites heading into WrestleMania 42 weekend have been revealed.

According to a source with knowledge of the situation who spoke with WrestleVotes Radio on Fightful Select, the current creative favorites to win at WrestleMania 42 are Roman Reigns, Trick Williams, and Penta. Those familiar with future plans indicate these outcomes are considered the most likely heading into the weekend, though decisions are said to remain fluid until showtime.

A Reigns victory would see him capture the World Heavyweight Championship from CM Punk in the night two main event on April 19, marking his return to the top of the mountain following his record-setting 1,316-day title reign that ended at WrestleMania 40. Williams winning would see him dethrone Sami Zayn for the United States Championship on night two, a result that has been widely anticipated given the crowd reactions Williams has been generating in recent weeks. Penta retaining the Intercontinental Championship in the Ladder Match on night two would keep the gold with the first-ever Intercontinental Champion from Mexico.

WrestleMania 42 takes place Saturday, April 18 and Sunday, April 19 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, streaming live on the ESPN app in the United States and on Netflix internationally. The full card is as follows:
