Roman Reigns vs. Jacob Fatu – Tribal Combat for the World Heavyweight Championship

Reigns and Fatu are running it back from Backlash Tampa in a Tribal Combat match. This is a no-disqualification, no-count-out match in which the winner is recognized as Tribal Chief of the Anoa’i family. Reigns is 2-0 in these types of matches, having beaten Jey Uso at SummerSlam 2023 and Solo Sikoa on the 2025 Raw on Netflix Premiere.

Cody Rhodes vs. Gunther – Undisputed WWE Championship

Rhodes has held the Undisputed WWE Championship since WrestleMania 42 in March 2026, when he defeated Randy Orton. He’s since beaten both Ricky Saints and Sami Zayn in title defenses. Gunther earned his shot officially by beating Royce Keys on the May 15 SmackDown.

Rhea Ripley vs. Jade Cargill – WWE Women’s Championship

A direct WrestleMania 42 Night Two rematch. Ripley took the WWE Women’s Championship off Cargill at the show, then dealt with weeks of interference from Fatal Influence before Cargill resurfaced on the May 8 SmackDown

Becky Lynch vs. Sol Ruca – Women’s Intercontinental Championship

Sol Ruca is one of WWE’s biggest post-WrestleMania call-ups, and her non-title match against Lynch at Saturday Night’s Main Event XLIV ended in a Lynch disqualification. This is only Lynch’s second defense of her current reign, which she started by beating AJ Lee at WrestleMania 42.

Brock Lesnar vs. Oba Femi

Lesnar appeared to retire at WrestleMania 42 after losing to Femi in what felt like a passing of the torch. Then on the May 18 Raw, Lesnar returned out of nowhere and hit Femi with four consecutive F-5s.
