In my WWE 2K25 review, I wrote about the game’s abundance of exciting long-form modes that make it a game I can enjoy for months on end. But during Mania Season, I like to add my own custom mode, in a sense: WrestleMania 41 predictions mode.

The 2025 WrestleMania match card is just about buttoned up as I write this–though we still seem to await an official opponent for Randy Orton, which he should get on April 18’s go-home episode of SmackDown. That makes it a great time to throw these matches together in WWE 2K25 and see how they come out. Using Visual Concepts’ pro-wrestling sim, I put every match into the game and observed how they turned out.

While two of the competitors aren’t officially on the roster yet, that was no issue; given the game’s robust user-generated content suite, I was able to download the lucha superstars Penta and El Grande Americano thanks to the WWE 2K community. I also hosted every match in a user-made WrestleMania 41 arena to give it the right vibe before the dev team likely adds its own official version soon.

Some of the below results, I definitely agree with, while others seem less likely, but then that’s one of the best parts of professional wrestling: the swerves. Check out the full match card predictions for WrestleMania 41 below, then come back on the nights of April 19 and 20, Nights 1 and 2 of Mania, respectively, and see how the game fared against reality.
