AI Predicts Jade Cargill Vs. Naomi Will Main Event WrestleMania 42 Saturday
- Jade Cargill and Naomi have wrestled twice in 2025
- Their feud has been one of the best of the year
- AI believes the feud will stretch until WrestleMania 42
Jade Cargill and Naomi have had one of the most intense rivalries of 2025 in a feud which has elevated each of them in WWE. At both WrestleMania 41 and Evolution 2025, Jade Cargill emerged victorious, overcoming her villainous rival in both a singles match and in a brutal No Holds Barred match. However, AI doesn’t think the story is done just yet. AI was on the ball by talking about Naomi’s victory at Evolution 2025 in which she cashed in the Money in the Bank briefcase to win the Women’s World Title, though it seems to have gotten a little confused over the fact that Jade Cargill is poised to face Tiffany Stratton for the WWE Women’s Title at SummerSlam. AI thinks that Cargill’s Queen of the Ring victory will put her on course for a title match at next year’s WrestleMania, which isn’t true.

WWE vs. 1 Silverback Gorilla: How Many Wrestlers to Win?
You’ve seen the viral question that asks if a hundred men could take down a gorilla. We bet these WWE wrestlers could do it.
However, with Naomi seemingly heading to RAW and away from Jade Cargill, they will finally be apart from one another, allowing their feud time to breathe and simmer before it is potentially rekindled down the line for another chapter, so AI may be on to something. It has been quite some time since two women main-evented WrestleMania, though AI believes 2026 will finally be the year – and it just so happens to feature two more black women, following in the history-making footsteps of Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks at WrestleMania 37.
AI Predicts Cody Rhodes Vs. Gunther Will Main Event WrestleMania 42 Sunday
- AI thinks Gunther will win the 2026 Royal Rumble
- He will challenge Rhodes at WrestleMania 42
- They will battle over the WWE Championship
It will be four years in a row for Cody Rhodes if AI is correct in its prediction for the main event of WrestleMania 42. ChatGPT has selected a blockbuster babyface vs. heel clash between Cody Rhodes and Gunther for WrestleMania 42 Sunday, and it will be for the WWE Championship. This implies that AI believes Gunther will lose his World Heavyweight Championship at some point between now and WrestleMania, and Cody Rhodes will reclaim the WWE Championship – something that could be true sooner rather than later due to him challenging John Cena at SummerSlam 2025.

Rhodes and Gunther previously wrestled at Crown Jewel 2024 in a match won by Rhodes, becoming the first ever Crown Jewel Champion. Gunther will undoubtedly want revenge, and AI thinks he will find it by winning the Royal Rumble match in 2026 to earn a title shot in the main event of WrestleMania.
Other Top Picks For WrestleMania’s Main Event From AI
- AI has picked several other potential matches for WrestleMania 42
- The women’s matches selected sound like strong matchups
- The men’s matches selected by AI are not so exciting
Just for the fun of the game, we asked AI to provide some alternative WrestleMania 42 main event predictions, and there were some intriguing prospects, the most notable of which being a Career vs. Career match between Seth Rollins and CM Punk to end their feud for good. AI explains that due to the personal animosity in their rivalry, they’ll fight to end the other’s career.
Among other potential matches highlighted by AI include Rhea Ripley vs. Becky Lynch vs. Liv Morgan, Rhea Ripley vs. Charlotte Flair, Roman Reigns vs. Solo Sikoa, and Logan Paul vs. LA Knight, the latter two of which would be quite questionable choices for the Grandest Stage of Them All, to say the least.
