SPOTLIGHTED PODCAST ALERT (YOUR ARTICLE BEGINS A FEW INCHES DOWN)...

WWE has made a change to their WrestleMania 38 match lineup. The Edge vs. A.J. Styles match that was originally announced and scheduled for night two on Sunday April 3 has now been moved to night one on Saturday April 2. This is the first match between both competitors.

Edge challenged anyone in the locker room to step up and face him at WrestleMania and Styles answered the call. During a face to face encounter, Edge blindsided Styles with a vicious attack that included multiple chair shots and conchairto’s. Styles was sidelined for two weeks because of the damage, but he returned on this week’s episode of Monday Night Raw. In his return promo, Styles said he would destroy Edge at WrestleMania, but was then interrupted by Seth Rollins. Rollins and Styles would wrestle in the main event, but Edge interfered and attacked Styles with a chair once again.

WrestleMania will stream live on Peacock on Saturday April 2 and Sunday April 3. Other night one matches include Becky Lynch vs. Bianca Belair for the Raw Women’s Championship, Charlotte Flair vs. Ronda Rousey for the Smackdown Women’s Championship, Drew McIntyre vs. Happy Corbin, The Usos vs. Shinsuke Nakamura & Rick Boogs for the Smackdown Tag Team Championship, and a special KO Show with Steve Austin.

Night two will feature Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns for the Undisputed World Championship, Johnny Knoxville vs. Sami Zayn, Pat McAfee vs. Austin Theory, and a fatal four-way match for the Women’s Tag Team Championship between Carmella & Zelina Vega, Liv Morgan & Rhea Ripley, Sasha Banks & Naomi, and Natalya & Shayna Baszler.
