Billings, MT Sign Steals the Show at WrestleMania 41
WrestleMania 41 brought the thrill of professional wrestling to Allegiant Stadium in Paradise, Nevada, on April 19-20, 2025. This two-night event made history as the 41st edition of the grandest spectacle in the sport and the second time Las Vegas hosted the show, following WrestleMania IX in 1993 at Caesars Palace.
A New Era: Streaming WrestleMania on Netflix
WrestleMania 41 marked a significant shift in how fans could access the event. For the first time, the event was streamed live on Netflix in most international markets, thanks to a new 10-year partnership between WWE and the streaming giant, which kicked off in January 2025.
CM Punk's Long-Awaited Return
Fans were treated when CM Punk made his first WrestleMania appearance since 2013. After a long hiatus, Punk returned to the ring, bringing back memories, which was a special moment for fans who had been waiting years to see the “Best in the World” perform once again.
A Farewell to John Cena
WrestleMania 41 also marked a bittersweet moment for wrestling fans as John Cena announced that it would be his final match at the event. With his retirement from professional wrestling at the end of 2025, Cena's match at WrestleMania was an emotional goodbye for one of WWE’s most loved stars.
A Billings Moment in the Spotlight
While WrestleMania 41 was an international event with a worldwide audience, one fan from Billings, Montana, uniquely made his mark.
Amid the action, a man holding a sign reading simply "Billings MT" was prominently featured behind John Cena during the main event. The sign caught the attention of many fans, who were curious about the identity of this Billings representative.
The Billings Mystery Unfolds
A Facebook post by Anthony Barnes quickly garnered attention, sharing photos of the fan holding the Billings sign and asking if anyone knew who he was. "Does anyone know who this dude is that's holding the Billings, MT sign after the main event of WrestleMania 41? I'd like to give that dude the Hell Yeah he deserves," Barnes wrote. The conversation quickly gained momentum, with comments flying in from fellow wrestling fans.
A Community of Fans United by Billings Pride
As the posts and comments continued, Jon UN, the fan with the sign, was revealed to be the man behind the legendary gesture. Trudy Damas, another commenter, expressed admiration, saying, "His name is Jon UN and he's awesome."
DaNe RiCo also jumped in to share the love, writing, "That's the main man Jon UN. Such an iconic photo, and we get Billings immortalized in history now." The pride of Billings was on full display, and Jon's gesture had left a lasting impression.
And you know what, Jon, if you're reading this, we think you're awesome, too. You’ve shown the world that no matter where you’re from, you can make a lasting impact, and in your case, you did it with nothing more than a sign and a lot of heart.
Wrapping Up a Historic Weekend
WrestleMania 41 was filled with unforgettable moments, but the love for Billings shown by Jon UN was one of the most heartwarming highlights. It’s fans like him who remind us that no matter how big the stage, we can always represent where we’re from with pride. Thank you, Jon.
