Last year’s WrestleMania XL was one of the modern great people, with a slim-down match card, which had several classics, as well as the most explosive end sequence in a generation.
For all appreciation, a lot has changed since that Chilli Weekend in Philadelphia, with 11 places and more than a dozen title changes. Given the 40th annual WrestleMania, let’s take the stock since then that has grown, which has maintained the situation, and which has lagged behind.
Who is there
Jey use
Last year’s ‘frenzy’ was not absolutely a slam sting for the former bloodline man, after one of his matches with his twin brother, became the most moist of moist squebbs. Then who would have thought a year later, Jay USO WrestleMania 41 will have a certified “Arena-Shekar” and a favorite of running to win the World Heavyweight Championship?

Whether you are on board with Yetting or not, you have to agree whether it is a hell of a year for the former “right hand man”.

Dome mysterio
Despite being a solid contender for the “best” wrestler at the time, WWE failed to come up with a decent plan for “dirty dome” in Philadelphia, instead closed him with his father, The Great Ray Mysterio, with his crowd and shut down with his crowd.
The twelve months and all of this turns into a thrilling four-way in the form of WWE’s most unique two-timer head that can well leave him with an intercontinental championship around his waist. You don’t like what he does, but you cannot say that he is not worth it.

Bianka Belir
It is one thing to rotate your upper card to keep things fresh, but the WWE’s decision to move Bianka Belier from the main title scene always feels like a dissatisfaction for his unique talent. Last year’s’ frenzy can be a good way to present a six-women tag Z K Kargil properly, but it still feels like a “SmackDown” main program compared to a ‘frenzy -able match’.
How have things have changed since then? After being freed from the tag team division, “The Est” quickly assured her authority over the entire female roster with a statement win at the Elimination Chamber. She now goes into ‘frenzy’ in her strongest position over the years and is a favorite for withdrawing the big award.
cm Punk
It is true that CM Punk did not actually wrestle in last year’s ‘frenzy’, but he definitely played a big role, which enhances the rivalry of the year with the Drew McIntire. Since then, “The Second City Saint” has gone from strength to strength, emerging as a star artist at the Rumble and Elimination Chamber. After one year of hard work and no dispute, Pank now only gets only the desserts: a chance to meet his career-least goal to headline WrestleMania.
Who is it
Damage Ctrl
Given that they have been sidelined with injuries, this damage seems unbreakable to include Ctrl. But re -releasing the packages from last year’s frenzy (including Belle vs IO Sky), you quickly remember what this quarter had a big role of this quarter in 2023. Belle was a masterstroke to re -start Belle as a babyfase, but it ended for others (most of the time of IYO finished followed for most of the time).

Of course, being a pro-resush, these things can turn into a heartbeat, and you are just Know The roof will come out of the stadium or the arena when Asuka finally returns to him.
Drew McIntire
Last year, after his insults in the hands of CM Punk and Damian priest, McIntire began his best work over the years, concluding in a shocking hell in a cell match. In particular, despite taking a bath with praise after poor blood, McIntair has lost speed in the Netflix era, roughly due to some unwanted lack of booking from the creative team.
At the beginning of the year, I tied him as a contender for a potential universal championship, while crossing his fingers for each other outing against the Roman rule. Neither has happened. Instead, we have a repetition against the Demian priest, even with a street-lady stipend, a little bit later.

Austin theory
This is one of the opinion that has become a clinch: just what is doing with WWE Austin theory? After two years after defeating John Cena in the curtain-razor in WrestleMania 39, a one-time rising star cannot be seen anywhere this time. Certainly, when Vince McMahon was pushing him the fastest in the years, there was some exaggeration, but his critics at that time would have believed that the principle has some serious talent.
At the age of just 27, there will be too much ‘manhians’ to create an impression in theory. But this still does not justify its absence this time.
Who has been the same

Codi rhodes
This was once a lifetime moment for Kodi Rhodes at WrestleMania XL, as “The American Knightmier” finally won the award that removed his late father. Not only the match was an absolute classic, but the post-match view-roads were sufficient to bring a tear for the most eccentric of the rhodes-edges with friends and family in the ring.

Now Rhodes is facing a very different battle on mania 41, with a very real danger of losing his title to maleist John Cena. Has Kodi lost his pace as a babyface champion? Answer this great video package to that question,
Randy Orton
This time last year, we were still riding a high ride on Randy Orton, making their comeback in Wargem, as “The Viper” faced Logan Paul and Kevin Owens in a frenzy three-way. Orton still has a crowd behind him – just listen to them singing Voices In Europe – but I can’t help think that we are still waiting for that one Big The match which will actually take her back to the main title scene.

Let’s hope that Nick Aldis may come with an appropriate opponent to win Orton to win his long -awaited statement.
Gantar
Ganthar was one of the big gambling in last year’s WrestleMania after leaving his IC title. Nevertheless, if you feel that the “The Ring General” would not be without sleeping for a long time, you quickly proved to be correct, as the Austrian powerhouse won the ring of the ring after the World Heavyweight Championship to win.
In the context of this year’s frenzy, Gunthar is clearly being deployed as the man he faces Babyfes J. USO. It is not a bad place, it is believed, but it is similar to the previous year – and I suspect that there are bright destinations in its future also.
