Former WWE LFG star BJ Ray has accused CM Punk of contacting management after Ray tweeted a joke about Punk's 0-2 UFC record early in his career. Ray made the accusation on social media in response to Punk's recent appearance on Complex's GOAT Talk where he called himself the greatest heel of all time, claiming that someone from management contacted him upset about the UFC tweet and strongly implying Punk was responsible.

CM Punk said that ego drives both him and Roman Reigns, describing Reigns as moving "like he's Genghis Khan" with a mentality where "he has to see everybody else lose." Punk also stated that jealousy and envy exist in Reigns, but acknowledged these traits may have helped carry him to his current position in WWE.

CM Punk criticized Roman Reigns' part-time WWE schedule during a sit-down interview with Corey Graves ahead of WrestleMania 42. While Punk acknowledged respecting Reigns as a father who prioritizes family, he argued that being a top WWE star and champion comes with responsibilities that shouldn't be ignored, comparing Reigns unfavorably to Seth Rollins and Cody Rhodes who he says balance their commitments better. Punk positioned himself as "the old school pro wrestler" who won't let Reigns act like he calls the shots while working part-time.

WWE's Paul "Triple H" Levesque stated that there is "no backup" for top stars in WWE. He made these comments while discussing bumps on the "Road to WrestleMania."

CM Punk criticized Roman Reigns' career trajectory during an interview with Corey Graves, stating that Reigns has never accomplished anything on his own and has always been "coddled and surrounded by management, the office, his friends, his family" throughout his time with The Shield, as the Big Dog, and as the Tribal Chief. Punk suggested that Reigns was "somebody else's idea that had to get pushed through" rather than achieving success through individual effort, framing their upcoming WrestleMania 42 match as a test of whether Reigns can succeed without outside help.

CM Punk admitted he intentionally crossed the line during promos involving Roman Reigns' family, stating "I 100% crossed the line, because that's what I do" and describing himself as a "habitual line stepper" who uses psychological tactics to get in opponents' heads. Despite acknowledging that pushing boundaries is part of his strategic game plan for their feud leading to WrestleMania, Punk admitted he feels "a little bit gross about it" and knows he's "better than that."

BJ Ray is claiming he was hacked after controversial posts about Bronson Reed and Becky Lynch sparked backlash online. In an Instagram video, Ray said he wasn't responsible for the remarks that drew criticism, initially joking about tracking an IP address before insisting he wouldn't intentionally stir negative attention. Ray stated he tries to maintain a good reputation in the wrestling business and suggested he may need to improve his account security going forward.

Nikki Bella was spotted wearing a walking boot in Las Vegas just three days before WrestleMania 42, raising doubts about her ability to compete in the planned Women's Tag Team Championship match.

The original match was set to feature The Bella Twins in a four-way tag team bout on night one of WrestleMania 42 on April 18.

CM Punk has revealed his first impression of Roman Reigns and discussed the origins of their animosity. Punk stated that Reigns "had management & an entire system that was gonna shove him down everybody's throat, by some miracle he finally figured it out."

Cody Rhodes discussed dealing with Pat McAfee during his match with Randy Orton at WWE WrestleMania 42. Rhodes stated that he has a plan for handling McAfee.
