WWE WrestleMania 40 Card In Jeopardy
Much to the sadness of many fans, CM Punk confirmed his injury during the January 29th edition of Monday Night RAW. For more information on everything that went down last night, check out our RAW results recap from the past year.
Punk noted during his promo that main eventing WM 40 was not possible. This is because he’ll be out for about three to four months due to a torn right tricep.
He was slated to face Seth Rollins. Still, even the WWE World Champion is also out of action right now with hopes he’ll recover by ‘Mania time.
Then there’s the allegations against Vince McMahon all over the news. As Brock Lesnar’s name has been mentioned in all of this, he was pulled from this year’s Royal Rumble.
A new report notes that all these determining factors have highly affected this year’s WrestleMania card. The WrestleVotes X/Twitter handle suggests that WWE’s flagship event has taken a “sharp turn”.

As per WrestleVotes, “Between the unfortunate injury to CM Punk, the questionable status of Seth Rollins and the pulling of Brock Lesnar, the WrestleMania card has took a sharp turn. Source said there are a number of brand new “card variations” on the table, including some superstars who were not pegged towards the top just days ago. I’m being told they will take their time to figure things out and consider ‘just about everything’.”

Looks like the WM 40 card is very up in the air right now. While injuries have switched things up in the past, as three major stars are affected (through injury or other reasons), the WWE might have to do some scrambling.
A silver lining to this is an up-and-coming superstar will be given a chance to shine on the Grandest Stage of Them All, will get to do so now. It will be interesting to see how things will be eventually booked for the biggest event on the WWE’s calendar.
