Preview...

Despite a number of the WWE’s recent breakout stars headlining both Raw and Smackdown throughout the year, WrestleMania 33 will feel like déjà vu for many, with the main event set to see old rivals Goldberg and Lesnar face off, 13 years after their first Mania encounter.

The Undertaker will also look to stretch his incredible Mania record to 24-1 when he takes on Roman Reigns, while the WWE Championship will be up for grabs when former partners Bray Wyatt and Randy Orton – winner of the Royal Rumble – go head-to-head.

Shane McMahon will return to the squared-circle to take on former champion AJ Styles in a bitter and hate-fuelled feud that stemmed from the latter losing the WWE Championship at the Rumble and subsequently throwing the former through a car window.

Also on the match card, Seth Rollins returns from a knee injury inflicted by Triple H, who turned on his protégé in a long-winded feud that should culminate at WrestleMania.

Here’s everything you need to know about WrestleMania 33.

Where can I watch it?

WrestleMania 33 will be shown live on the WWE Network, which costs £9.99-a-month. You can also watch it on Sky Sports Box Office for a one-off fee of £19.95.

WrestleMania 33 will also be covered by The Independent’s live blog on this page.

Can I still buy tickets?

Legally, no. The event is already a sell-out, meaning around 75,000 WWE fans will cram into the Camping World Stadium nine years after it last held WrestleMania.

So which one could steal the show? We reckon it might be the blue half of the WWE:

Result: On the WrestleMania pre-show, Dean Ambrose has RETAINED his Intercontinental Championship against Baron Corbin. That means we're just five minutes away from getting the main show started!

Here we go!

We're kicking off with the US national anthem as always, and this year it's Tinache singing it...nope, I'm not sure who she is either.

WrestleMania opens up with a pretty cool montage depicting a rollercoaster rolling though all of those who will feature tonight. That's one thing we're definitely going to get, the next four hours are going to be one hell of a rollercoaster!

It's a New Day!

The WrestleMania hosts make their entrance immediately, much to the delight of the WWE Universe. They're rolling down the longest WrestleMania entrance ever seen, and at this rate it's going to take The Undertaker an absolute age to make his way out tonight.

As The New Day open things up, there appears to be a huge mock ring above the actual ring, a rather interesting looking structure mounted high in the Orlando sky in the open-air stadium.
