With the stage set for another action-packed night, Sports Brief looks at five things that could happen on Night 2.

Kevin Owens to win US title

KO has been embroiled in a rivalry with Logan Paul and could get revenge in the Triple Threat match.

Owens will fight Randy Orton and the champion Paul on Night 2 and could get the pinfall over the brash champion.

While there is no love lost between the Montreal native and the US champ, Owens recently praised Paul for how quickly he has adapted to the business, talkSPORT reported.

With Sami Zayn winning the Intercontinental title on Night 1, his best friend could claim the other mid-card title on the second night.

Damage CTRL to interfere

Dakota Kai, Kairi Sane, and Asuka failed to pick up a win against Jade Cargill, Bianca Bellair, and Naomi, and they will be out for some retribution.

With Iyo Sky aiming to defend her WWE Women's Championship against Bayley, she may require help from the rest of her faction.

Bayley started the group and has been dead set on defeating the monster she created by taking away their most prized possession, the Women's Championship.

CM Punk to interfere

CM Punk was desperate to main event a WrestleMania, but an injury at the Royal Rumble ruined that dream.

Drew McIntyre has since claimed credit for injuring the Chicago native, and Punk will want to get his own back.

While he’s not medically cleared to compete, Punk will be on commentary for McIntyre’s match against Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship.

Being at ringside for this title fight, and not being a fan of either competitor, it’s easy to see Punk get involved in one way or another.

Damian Priest to cash in

Senor Money in the Bank is running out of time to cash in his title opportunity.

As noted by Wrestle Talk, Priest has until July 6 to use his guaranteed shot at the title, and WrestleMania could be the perfect opportunity to do so.

With the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship and the World Heavyweight Championship both up for grabs at the Grandest stage of ‘em all, Priest can have his pick of which title he wants.

The Judgement Day also lost their Tag Titles on Night 1, so Priest is free to take a crack at a singles title.

Stone Cold to make an appearance

This sounds like a wild shot, but the Texas Rattlesnake could make an appearance at Mania.

With The Rock and Roman Reigns winning on Night 1, the title match between Cody and Reigns will be contested under Bloodline Rules.

While it’s never featured before in the WWE, Bloodlines Rules would mean there would be no disqualification or countouts and that anything would be allowed to stand.

That would mean that anyone could get involved, including Stone Cold, or someone like Brock Lesnar. Fans are also speculating that his brother could make an appearance because of Cody’s final promo.

Five best entrances at WrestleMania 40

Sports Brief previously looked at the best superstar entrances on Night 1 of WrestleMania 40.

Superstars are known to pull out all the stops for Mania, and Night 1 certainly didn't disappoint.

The Rock's Final Boss theme had people talking, as did Rhea Ripley's theme being played live.
