By Tyler ErzbergerShareNewsweek is a Trust Project memberThe Royal Rumble is over, and two winners have been crowned with world title shots guaranteed in two months at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
As always with the WWE, the Royal Rumble is the kickoff to its WrestleMania season, with many of the top storylines heading into the biggest event of the year fleshed out during the event.
So, with Liv Morgan and Roman Reigns respectively winning their Rumble matches, what do the main events of night one and night two of WrestleMania 42 look like?

Night One (Saturday)
While the women haven't headlined a 'Mania night in years, that streak could be coming to an end in Vegas.
Morgan has been one of the most-talked-about stars in the company over the past year and has the marketability to be in the main event of Saturday's show.
While she can contend for either women's world title, look for her to keep her eyes on the "Raw" championship belt with either Stephanie Vaquer, Raquel Rodriguez, or both. Vaquer and Rodriguez are fighting for the belt on Monday, and that appears to be the path we're going down for Mania.
On the men's side, Drew McIntyre still holds the WWE undisputed belt, but tonight's action in the Rumble points to a one-on-one rematch with Cody Rhodes or a triple threat involving "The Samoan Werewolf" Jacob Fatu.
If Morgan wants to main event on Saturday, her match will most likely have to beat out McIntyre's 'Mania feud with Rhodes and Fatu.
Night Two (Sunday)
The path here is a lot cleaner. Reigns won the Rumble for the second time, and all signs point towards him having a blockbuster main event with CM Punk to close out Sunday's show.
Punk and Reigns tore the house down last year in Saturday's main event alongside the currently injured Seth Rollins, and it seems as if they will finish their two-year arc for the heavyweight championship in the same stadium.
Reigns has been open on "The Pat McAfee Show" about how the WWE has been a bit creatively directionless since his time out of the title picture, and a Sunday main event with CM Punk appears to be on the horizon.
