CM Punk makes John Cena's WWE title reign interesting by delivering the Truth
John Cena was pissed off after Ron Killings attacked him in the opening segment of tonight's (June 13) SmackDown, so he called R-Truth out for a fight later in the night. John was instead greeted by 'Cult of Personality' and CM Punk. After dismissing Cena's claim that he's a hypocrite (for challenging John for the belt in Saudi Arabia at Night of Champions), Punk said he was there to make another John Cena title reign interesting again, just like the good old days. He proceeded to do just that by ripping into Cena on the mic and telling the truth. The truth really hurts, because Ron Killings once again attacked Cena from behind. This time he even locked John in his own STFU submission hold. GM Nick Aldis was fed up with all of Killings' interruptions during the night and granted a him a match with Cena next week. Just like that, Punk and Killings really did find a way to make Cena's underwhelming WWE title reign interesting. Catch up on all the results from SmackDown in our live blog right here.

WWE Raw: Logan Paul gets the better of Jey Uso after all hell breaks loose Bron Breakker pushed Jey Uso to the limit in their eagerly-awaited match on WWE Raw and even hit the star with the Frankinsteiner. The champ, to his credit, kept coming back and countered the young star's strength with his speed. Seth Rollins, inevitably, got involved and caused the match to end without a decisive winner. He then teamed up with 'The Badass' to assault Jey. They were interrupted by Sami Zayn. Listen to Greenville, South Carolina sing 'Cult of Personality'.#WWERAW The Canadian star was joined by CM Punk and a brawl ensued as all hell broke loose.

WWE 'WrestleMania 41': Seth Rollins wins with help from Paul Heyman
April 20 (UPI) -- Seth Rollins was able to defeat his two biggest rivals after receiving help from Paul Heyman at WrestleMania 41. Rollins faced off against Roman Reigns and CM Punk in a Triple Threat match in the main event of WrestleMania Saturday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas. WWE said the sold-out show had 61,467 fans in attendance. Advertisement Heyman, also known as The Wiseman, normally works for Reigns but was in the corner for his friend Punk after Punk was owed a favor. All three competitors had epic entrances with Rollins using a flamethrower and Punk having band Living Colour perform "Cult of Personality." The battle included Punk and Rollins brawling throughout the stands and Reigns Powerbombing both Punk and Rollins through announce tables. All three men were down after Punk nailed Rollins with a GTS just before Reigns took down Punk with a Spear. Rollins ended the sequence by delivering a Stomp to Reigns. The pivotal moment arrived when Heyman grabbed a steel chair and had to decide between giving it to Punk or Reigns. Heyman chose Punk but then, in a surprise twist, The Wiseman took Punk down with a low blow. Advertisement Reigns was overjoyed to have his Wiseman back and started beating Punk down with the steel chair. Heyman told The Tribal Chief to focus his efforts on Rollins. As Reigns got ready, Heyman pulled off his second betrayal of the night and took Reigns down with a low blow. Rollins was then able to easily win the match and ended WrestleMania Saturday with Heyman of all people raising his hand in victory. Other moments from WrestleMania Saturday included WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton successfully defending her title against Charlotte Flair in a highly competitive match. Stratton was able to survive a Figure Four from Flair and a Natural Selection from the top rope. Stratton put away Flair after landing The Prettiest Moonsault Ever. Advertisement Stratton also had a notable, Barbie-themed entrance. Jey Uso defeated Gunther in the opening match to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. Uso, who wanted revenge for what Gunther did to his twin brother Jimmy Uso, won the match after placing The Ring General in his own sleeper hold. The New Day defeated The War Raiders to become the World Tag Team Champions, Jade Cargill defeated Naomi, Jacob Fatu defeated LA Knight to become the United States Champion, and El Grande Americano defeated Rey Fenix, who was substituting for an injured Rey Mysterio.

Seth Rollins steals the show as main event sizzles at WrestleMania 41 in Las Vegas
In what may go down as one of the greatest main events of all time, Seth Rollins defeated Roman Reigns and CM Punk at Night 1 of WrestleMania 41 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Saturday night. As more than 60,000 exhausted fans watched, Paul Heyman turned his back on his longtime tribal chief Reigns, then on his longtime best friend Punk, aligning himself with Rollins to help him capture their triple threat match, completely shocking the capacity crowd. After an intense and incredible match that saw all three men put on what can only be described as an instant classic, each nearly winning the contest multiple times, Heyman took the crowd on a wrestling joyride by grabbing a chair at ringside while all three men were down inside the ring. Heyman, holding the chair while staring at Reigns and Punk, seemingly torn by his loyalty to both, slid the chair inside to Punk, igniting a huge roar from the crowd. After Punk took the weapon and prepared to wallop Reigns, a win appearing within his grasp, Heyman dropped to his knees and hit Punk with a low blow. Reigns, a slightly confused by pleased look on his face, then bashed Punk with the chair repeatedly. Rollins, recovering with his back to the duo, was next. But as Reigns positioned himself to deliver chair shots to Rollins, again Heyman dropped to the mat and delivered a second, even more shocking, low blow to Reigns, nearly blowing the roof off the stadium in the process. Rollins, his back still to the action that unfolded, held his hand out as Heyman handed him the weapons. Rollins delivered the final chair shot to Reigns, followed by his Curb Stomp finisher, to snatch the victory from the jaws of defeat as a shocked and emotionally spent crowd struggled to process what it had just witnessed. The finale capped a night that also saw all but one championship change hands. WWE Women's Champion Tiffany Stratton successfully defended her title in a violent encounter with Charlotte Flair, the only champion to escape Las Vegas with their title in hand. In other title matches, Jey Uso defeated Gunther to become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, The War Raiders lost their WWE World Tag Team Championships to The New Day and United States Champion LA Knight lost his title to Jacob Fatu. Other highlights of the night included Punk being serenaded to the ring by Living Color, who performed a live version of his entrance theme Cult of Personality; a live performance of the U.S. national anthem by Jelly Roll and several spectacular entrances that featured cars, incredible ring gear and pyro. In one of the most highly anticipated matches of the night, Charlotte Flair challenged Tiffany Stratton for her WWE Women's Championship. Stratton did what few other women have in WWE in defeating Flair at WrestleMania in a championship match. The lead-up to the match was so intense, fans couldn't tell if the heat between the women was scripted or real. That carried over into the match itself, which concluded with Stratton victorious, her mouth bloodied, bruises on her face and the championship in hand. Stratton delivered an Alabama Slam into the turnbuckle and her Prettiest Moonsault Ever for the 1-2-3, for the finish. Following an injury to Rey Mysterio on Friday night during SmackDown, WWE pivoted, replacing Mysterio with its newest luchador, Rey Fenix. El Grande Americano, a mysterious luchador who looks suspiciously like Chad Gable, came out to an elaborate entrance, complete with a Mariachi band all donning El Grande Americano masks. The match opened with great pace and high-flying spots, with Americano hitting an impressive moonsault senton. In what was probably the night's most unappreciated bout, it concluded with Americano inserting a metal plate into his mask and hitting Fenix from the top rope with a diving headbutt, leading to an easy pinfall victory. An announced sold-out crowd of 61,467 took in the first night of WrestleMania 41, according to WWE. WWE Hall of Famer Shawn Michaels was introduced to the crowd ahead of the women's championship match, where he proceeded to thank the crowd, announced at more than 61,000 for the first of back-to-back nights at the stadium. The WWE Hall of Fame class of 2025, led by Paul Triple H Levesque, were also honoured late in the evening. Fatu gave fans a glimpse of what's to come for his bright future when he took on LA Knight in the evening's fourth match for the United States Championship. Fatu was accompanied by The Bloodline's leader Solo Sikoa, though fortunately, the latter didn't impact the match's outcome. Fatu's power and athleticism were on full display as he captured his first WWE title in his young and promising career. The back-and-forth match ended with Fatu hitting a Samoan Drop from the top rope and two of his signature moonsaults for the win. The third match of the evening featured two of the more dynamic and maybe underappreciated women in WWE, with Jade Cargill defeating Naomi. Cargill came to the ring with dyed grey hair, dressed in lightning bolt gear with a video vignette of a weather report in an homage to X-Men's Storm character. Naomi's ring gear, meanwhile, featured caution tape displaying 'Underappreciated,' 'Too nice,' and other messages. The match itself was short, but intense and featured several impressive spots. Cargill's power prevailed over Naomi's athleticism, however. Its conclusion saw Naomi lock in a submission hold, but the impressively strong Cargill escaped and delivered her Jaded finisher for the pinfall win. The second match of the evening featured The New Day challenging WWE World Tag Team champions, The War Raiders. The match only came together in recent weeks during New Day's recent heel run, but Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods became 12-time tag champs – the most decorated in WWE history — when they cheated to win on Saturday. After the War Raiders attempted their Viking Experience finisher on Woods, Kingston broke it up. With Kofi outside the ring, he reached up and held Ivar's leg, out of sight of the referee, as Woods jumped off the top rope onto Ivar's neck and scored the pinfall win. Night 1 opened with Uso challenging WWE World champion Gunther for his championship, a battle that was preceded by one of the more compelling storylines leading up to the match. Uso earned the title shot by winning the Royal Rumble in January, while Gunther spent months attacking Jay, even bloodying his twin brother Jimmy, in the lead-up. The match was well told, with Gunther playing the villainous bad guy to Uso's good guy persona. Its conclusion was as good or better than its leadup, with Uso winning his first World Heavyweight championship by using Gunther's own powerbomb, followed by three body splashes from the top ropes before locking in a sleeper hold, which forced Gunther to submit.
