A big stipulation has been added to a marquee "WrestleMania 41" match.

WWE is closing in on its biggest PLE of the year, which is scheduled for April 19 and 20 in Las Vegas. The company announced the lineups for both nights during Friday's episode of "WWE SmackDown."

Night one will feature the highly anticipated triple threat match featuring CM Punk, Roman Reigns, and Seth Rollins. Gunther vs. Jey Uso for the World Heavyweight Championship will also be featured on night one.

One heated rivalry will reach a boiling point on night two of "WrestleMania 41." Drew McIntyre vs. Damian Priest has been confirmed for the second night of "WrestleMania," and a significant stipulation has been added. WWE has announced that McIntyre vs. Priest will be contested in a "Sin City Street Fight."

The feud between McIntyre and Priest dates back to "WrestleMania 40" in Philadelphia. After McIntyre captured the World Heavyweight Championship from Rollins, he was attacked by CM Punk. This allowed Priest to cash in his "Money in the Bank" briefcase to take the title from McIntyre.

McIntyre was eliminated by Priest during the men's Royal Rumble match on Feb. 1. Priest followed that up by eliminating McIntyre at "Elimination Chamber 2025." This made "The Scottish Warrior" snap, and he's been ambushing Priest ever since.

During "SmackDown's" final stop on a European tour, Priest sent McIntyre crashing onto a car with a chokeslam. McIntyre claimed his eye was injured, but now he is cleared to compete at "WrestleMania 41."
