The 41st edition of WrestleMania is all set to become the biggest pay-per-view event of all time. The upcoming edition of WrestleMania 41 will witness the biggest superstars collide with each other inside the squared circle. The event will be held on April 19 and 20 in Las Vegas.

The WWE is already on the Road to WrestleMania, and the storylines have started to shape up before the superstars prepare themselves to make an appearance on the grandest stage of them all. However, the WWE received a massive setback with Kevin Owens pulling out of WrestleMania. Owens admitted that he will have to get a neck surgery done, and hence, it wouldn't be possible for him to face 'The Viper' Randy Orton in WrestleMania 41. This is a major shake-up in the WWE, just two weeks before WrestleMania 41.
