The Road to Wrestlemania has been kicked off with the Royal Rumble PPV and it will be hyped up even more as we progress towards the biggest stage of the year. The Wrestlemania-tour live shows will also commence, sooner giving the fans some big-time matches on the way starting from March.
One of such house shows will be held at the Madison Square Garden Arena in New York City. Considering that this is the iconic venue, every time WWE comes up with a show, here, the fans get a big treat.
This time around there will be no difference either as the lineup is shaping up to be quite big.
As reported earlier, John Cena and Nikki Bella will team up for one night only against the team of Bayley and Elias from WWE Mixed Match Challenge.
This is going to be their first ever appearance together after Wrestlemania 33. Furthermore, the Universal Championship match was also confirmed for this show featuring Brock Lesnar.
According to the updates from wrestlingINC.com, the champion will defend his title in a triple threat match. His two challengers will be Braun Strowman and Kane which is a repeated lineup from the Royal Rumble PPV.
We can surely expect an utter chaos considering what happened in this dual brand PPV.
