Sports Illustrated Abjures Report About WrestleMania XL Matches

Sports Illustrated recently claimed that WWE WrestleMania XL would feature several matches different from what was presented on television.

The media outlet suggested the matches discussed internally included Cody Rhodes vs. CM Punk and GUNTHER vs. Seth Rollins, among others.

However, Sports Illustrated’s Justin Barrasso has now recanted the story, writing,

“I reported spoilers for Sports Illustrated yesterday regarding the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania 40. I reported what was detailed to me by previously reliable sources. It appears this was a deliberate attempt at misinformation, or misinformation that is being spread through WWE itself. I apologize for the errors in yesterday’s report. When posting these reports, the entirety of the information needs to accurate.”
