Show Caption

The biggest weekend in wrestling is here as WWE takes over Las Vegas with WrestleMania 41.

Whether you're a diehard wrestling fan or not, people know WrestleMania has become the premier event in WWE's calendar. What started as a pay-per-view to help boost WWE's popularity in the 1980s has turned into a grand spectacle over the course of four decades, taking over sports media, morning shows and social media.

This year's edition of WrestleMania promises to be another major event, headlined by Cody Rhodes defending his Undisputed WWE Championship against John Cena, who is in his final year of in-ring competition. Other big names on the card include Roman Reigns, CM Punk, Seth Rollins, Bianca Belair, Charlotte Flair and yes, Logan Paul ... not to mention the celebrities and big names that could be making surprise appearances.

Since WWE has become the top wrestling company in the world, it's turned WrestleMania from a one-day event to a weekend full of action and festivities, taking over cities the same way the Super Bowl does. And just like the Super Bowl, you don't need to be a big fan to soak in all the incredible action.
