FROM Midnight
CONFIRMED MATCHES
Night 1 -- Saturday, April 10
WWE Championship -- Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Drew McIntyre: McIntyre successfully defended the WWE championship inside the Elimination Chamber, but a post-match attack by Lashley left McIntyre open for Miz to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase and win the title. Lashley claimed the title from Miz just one week later in dominant fashion, and two weeks later, it was announced that McIntyre would challenge Lashley for the title on the card. McIntyre defeated Cedric Alexander and Shelton Benjamin in a handicap match with the stipulation that both would be banned from ringside at WrestleMania.
SmackDown Women's Championship -- Sasha Banks (c) vs. Bianca Belair: Belair made it official that she will use her Royal Rumble win to challenge Banks for the title at WrestleMania. Banks and Belair teamed at Elimination Chamber to challenge for the women's tag titles but lost when Reginald interfered in an attempt to give Banks the edge. They will again team together to challenge for the titles at Fastlane, but after that, we'll be gearing up for what has the potential to be one of the best matches on the biggest card of the year.
Bad Bunny & Damian Priest vs. The Miz & John Morrison: It only made sense to finish playing out the Bad Bunny story that has been steadily advancing since Bunny performed at the Rumble. Originally slated to be a singles match pitting the global pop star opposite The Miz, that changed six days before WrestleMania. After The Miz and Morrison ambushed Bad Bunny backstage on Raw, Priest was quick to insert himself into the match to have the back of his friend.
Cesaro vs. Seth Rollins: Rollins made his return after the birth of his daughter with fellow superstar Becky Lynch and immediately told the WWE locker room to follow him into the future. Cesaro laughed off the idea and in the following weeks, used the Cesaro Swing to humiliate Rollins. Rollins has since had his sights set on Cesaro and finally made the challenge for a match at WrestleMania ... only to fall victim to the swing once again.
Raw Tag Team Championship -- The New Day (c) AJ Styles & Omos: The New Day regained the tag team titles from the Hurt Business on Raw, and shortly after, Styles and his muscle were out to make the challenge. New Day quickly accepted, and this will mark the in-ring debut of Omos on the main roster.
Shane McMahon vs. Braun Strowman (Steel Cage Match): This feud has been brewing for quite some time, and given McMahon's recent verbal attacks on Strowman in which he calls out the "Monster Among Men's" supposed stupidity, these two seemed destined to clash inside Raymond James Stadium. After a one-year hiatus, WrestleMania will again showcase a match featuring McMahon -- which usually tends to deliver some sort of memorable moment. After McMahon told Strowman he could pick any match type for Mania, leading Strowman to choose a cage match to prevent interference by Elias and Jaxson Ryker.
Ladies Tagteam Turmoil -- Naomi & Lana vs. Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke vs. The Riott Squad vs. Natalya & Tamina vs Billie Kay & Carmella: This match is the most recent to be put together for the card on Saturday. The winners will earn the right to challenge WWE tag team champions Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler on Sunday night during Night 2.
Night 2 -- Sunday, April 11
Universal Championship -- Roman Reigns (c) vs. Edge vs. Daniel Bryan: Edge waited to pick his opponent following his Royal Rumble win, playing head games with the champs across NXT, Raw and SmackDown. Those games bothered no one more than Reigns, who was always believed to be Edge's target. At Elimination Chamber, Edge finally made his move, putting Reigns down with a spear while the champion celebrated his victory over Daniel Bryan, who had won a grueling chamber match minutes prior. After the spear came the WrestleMania sign point, and the challenge was official. Bryan didn't go away, however, getting another shot at Reigns at Fastlane. Bryan made Reigns tap out during the match, which featured Edge as special enforcer, but the referee had been knocked out. An enraged Edge attacked by Bryan and Reigns, allowing Reigns to score the pin and retain his title. Bryan was able to successfully petition for one more shot at the belt, being inserted into the WrestleMania main event.
Raw Women's Championship -- Asuka (c) vs. Rhea Ripley: Ripley made her debut on Raw, and she went out of her way to make it a memorable one. After Asuka had defeated Peyton Royce in a non-title match, the former NXT women's champion emerged. Wanting to make an immediate impact, Ripley challenged Asuka for the Raw women's title at WrestleMania, and the champion quickly accepted.
"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton: Since Orton set The Fiend on fire, Alexa Bliss has repeatedly made Orton's life miserable. All the while, Bliss has promised that The Fiend would be reborn. That finally happened at Fastlane, when The Fiend returned to help Bliss beat Orton. The next night, The Fiend struck again, leading to the match being made official for night two. It's not clear if this will be a "normal match" or a return to the "cinematic" approach of many of Fiend's matches over the past several years.
Intercontinental Championship -- Big E (c) vs. Apollo Crews: Big E and Crews have had an extended rivalry that saw Crews turn heel and attack Big E with the ring steps when he failed several times to win the intercontinental title and Big E refused to continue granting him opportunities. Big E won their Fastlane match, but Crews beat him down once again after the match, leading to yet another showdown on the biggest stage possible.
Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn: Zayn has been crying conspiracy ever since losing the intercontinental championship, going so far as to hire a documentary crew to film the "situation." Zayn petitioned old friend Owens to participate in the documentary before striking him with a Helluva Kick when Owens refused. Owens would eventually lay down a challenge for WrestleMania, which Zayn accepted before Owens attacked, officially renewing a rivalry that has spanned nearly the entire careers of both men.
United States Championship -- Riddle (c) vs. Sheamus: With Sheamus out of the WWE title picture, but on a great run, WWE needed to find a spot for him to land. On Raw, Sheamus attacked Riddle with Riddle's own scooter, seemingly setting both men up with a program for WrestleMania after Riddle seemed to put his issues with Mustafa Ali and Retribution behind him. Sheamus attacked again the next week before beating Riddle in singles action to set up the WrestleMania showdown.
Women's Tag Team Championship -- Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler (c) vs. TBD: The champs will square off against the winners of the Tag Team Turmoil match taking place on Saturday.
HIGHLIGHTS
RESULTS AND HIGHLIGHTS
SATURDAY MATCHES
WWE Championship -- Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Drew McIntyre: Lashley and McIntyre locked up and pushed each other around the ring in a collar-and-elbow to start the match. Lashley dropped McIntyre with a shoulder tackle, but McIntyre came back with a belly-to-belly suplex moments later before a brawl broke out with both men driving in punches and forearms. The action spilled outside, where Lashley whipped McIntyre into the ringside barricade. McIntyre finally cut off Lashley's run by moving out of the corner and sending Lashley shoulder-first into the ring post. McIntyre tried to focus his offense on Lashley's shoulder but the champion was eventually able to regain the upper hand. McIntyre hit a clothesline, another belly-to-belly suplex and a neckbreaker. The challenger then went back to the arm of Lashley. Lashley was able to hit a dominator to cut off McIntyre's offensive flurry and scored one of the first near-falls of the match. Lashley also tried to lock in the Hurt Lock, but McIntyre was able to fight it off. As the fight went to the top rope, Lashley fended off a superplex attempt and then found himself launched from the top rope anyway as McIntyre popped up with a big throw. Shortly after, McIntyre hit the Future Shock DDT three times before going for a pin, but Lashley was able to kick out at two. McIntyre set up for the Claymore, but Lashley was able to roll out of the ring to avoid -- though he wasn't so lucky seconds later as McIntyre dove over the top rope. Lashley again tried to lock in a Hurt Lock, but McIntyre managed to force Lashley into the turnbuckle before locking in a kimura on Lashley's injured arm. Lashley ducked under a Claymore after a distraction by MVP from the outside, allowing Lashley to finally lock in the Hurt Lock. McIntyre fired up and tried to kick off the turnbuckle and roll, but Lashley held on to the hold and continued to apply pressure until McIntyre went out to allow Lashley to retain. A solid match based on physicality and impressive in the two men having to wait through the delay when they were seconds from walking to the ring at the start of the show. This won't be the best match of the weekend, but was still good stuff. Bobby Lashley def. Drew McIntyre via submission to retain the title.
Naomi & Lana vs. Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke vs. Natalya & Tamina vs. The Riott Squad vs. Carmella & Billie Kay (Tag Team Turmoil): Carmella, Kay, Naomi and Lana got the match started as Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler watched on backstage. Kay managed to pin Naomi when Carmella sat behind her, pressing into Kay's back with her feet to help keep Naomi from breaking the pin. The Riott Squad was out next. Carmella and Kay tried the same trick with the pin but were caught by the referee, allowing the Riott Squad to get the pin as Ruby Riott came off the top rope onto Kay as she was draped over Liv Morgan's knees. Brooke and Rose were the next team up and nearly managed to battle through and score the elimination before Morgan rolled up Rose with a small package. Tamina and Natalya were the final team to enter the match with Morgan badly worn down from the battle with Brooke and Rose and Riott down and out on the floor outside the ring. Riott finally got back in the match and hit a senton on Tamina that let Morgan get a pin for a near-fall. Tamina got the upper hand back and Natalya tagged in and hit a Hart Attack before choosing to tag back out to Tamina instead of locking in the sharpshooter. Tamina came off the top rope for the splash to score the pin and secure a title shot for Night 2. This was what it was with no pairing getting enough time to really turn in anything special, but also things moving quickly enough to hide any potential issues. Natalya & Tamina won Tag Team Turmoil.
Naomi & Lana vs Billie Kay & Carmella: Billy Kay pins Naomi
Billie Kay & Carmella vs The Riott Squad: Ruby Riott pins Billie Kay
The Riott Squad vs Mandy Rose & Dana Brooke: Liv Morgan pins Mandy Rose
The Riott Squad vs Natalya & Tamina: Tamina pins Ruby Riott
Cesaro vs. Seth Rollins: Cesaro tried for a swing twice in the opening moments of the match, but Rollins managed to avoid. Still, Cesaro hit a spinning European uppercut and dropkicked Rollins as he was seated on the top rope. Rollins was able to cut off the early flurry of Cesaro by attacking the arm. Rollins also hit a superplex into the falcon arrow for a near fall. The arm work from Rollins continued, eventually forcing Cesaro to cut off a swing at only nine rotations when he finally locked it in. Rollins came off the top rope with a twisting splash after regaining the upper hand but Cesaro responded by hitting the Neutralizer after kicking out from Rollins' splash. The exchange of big moves and near-falls continued as Cesaro went for another Neutralizer but Rollins countered into the Pedigree. Rollins went for the stomp but Cesaro popped him up and hit a European uppercut before the hands-free airplane spin variation -- the UFO. Cesaro followed that up with a 23-spin swing into the Neutralizer for the three count. A fun mid-card WrestleMania match that saw a true fan favorite not only get his first WrestleMania singles match, but also a victory. Things really clicked into place down the stretch in this one. Cesaro def. Seth Rollins via pinfall.
Raw Tag Team Championship -- The New Day (c) vs. AJ Styles & Omos: Styles and Kofi Kingston started the match with the giant Omos looking on. Kingston got an early advantage and began taunting Omos, playing mind games with the giant competitor. As New Day held the advantage on Styles, Xavier Woods yelled that they are tag team wrestlers, unlike their opponents, because they were "effectively cutting the ring in half." That was the pattern of the early portion of the match -- Styles struggling to make a tag to Omos while New Day kept him isolated in their corner. Styles tried to run around the ring to slide in and make the tag, but Woods was able to cut him off and keep Omos watching from the ring apron. After being dominated, Styles was finally able to kick Kingston and manage to make the hot tag to Omos, who immediately entered the ring and started to walk down Woods. Woods hit some leg kicks and a dropkick, but nothing had any effect on the big man. Omos laughed while he slowly worked over both members of New Day. Omos drilled Kingston with a two-handed choke bomb and scored the pin to win the titles. It was strange to see a tag match built around a hot tag to a heel, but this was brilliant to hide Omos' flaws and keep him looking like a completely effective monster. And Styles is made to bump around as his team's Ricky Morton. AJ Styles & Omos won via pinfall to win the titles.
Shane McMahon vs. Braun Strowman (Steel Cage Match): Strowman was attacked before the match by Elias and Jaxson Ryker, who then handed McMahon a steel chair. Strowman managed to stop McMahon from an early escape, but McMahon managed to grab a sheet of metal from the top of the cage, hitting Strowman with it several times but only getting a one count. Strowman again stopped McMahon from escaping the cage, finally getting the opportunity to toss McMahon around while driving in some big punches and a clubbing forearm to the chest. Despite Strowman smashing McMahon against the cage, McMahon managed to fight back before hitting the coast-to-coast dropkick for a two count. When Strowman kicked out, Elias and Ryker climbed the cage to help McMahon climb out before Strowman launched himself into the cage to knock all three men off with Elias and Ryker falling to the floor outside. McMahon again tried to climb out of the cage. This time, when Strowman tried to stop him McMahon grabbed a tool box from out of a bag that was hanging near the cage and hit Strowman in the head with it. McMahon climbed to the outside of the cage and reached his hand in to wave goodbye, but Strowman jumped to his feet and grabbed McMahon's hand, ripping apart the cage to drag McMahon back inside. Strowman then hoisted McMahon to the top of the cage, climbed up himself and threw McMahon back into the ring. Strowman followed McMahon into the ring and hit the running powerslam for the three count. This was the standard Shane McMahon match with all the good and bad involved. McMahon always being able to physically compete with even the biggest WWE superstars will never really make sense, but he takes some insane risks that result in an impressive level of spectacle and enhance the feel of the match. Braun Strowman def. Shane McMahon via pinfall.
Bad Bunny & Damian Priest vs. The Miz & John Morrison: Priest and Miz started off the match, but Miz demanded Bunny tag in, accusing him of being scared. Priest walked over and made the tag, bringing Bunny into the ring. As Miz taunted the music superstar, Bunny hit him with a right hand, and moments later. Miz charged at Bunny in the corner but Bunny moved out of the way and landed a flurry of punches. Miz was finally able to hit a knee on Bunny and began dragging Bunny around the ring before Bunny countered an armdrag by floating over and hitting one of his own. Bunny again got one over on Miz, wrapping him up with la magistral cradle for a near-fall and then a spinning rana. Miz finally tagged out, and while Morrison tangled with Bunny, Miz struck with a cheap shot and tagged back in. That finally allowed Miz and Morrison to begin pounding on Bunny, isolating him and punishing him with strikes. Bunny finally came back by getting his feet up in the corner and then hitting Miz with a tornado DDT before finally making the hot tag to Priest. Priest ran through both Miz and Morrison before hitting a side-sitout chokeslam on Miz for a near-fall. Priest and Bunny hit stereo falcon arrows for a near-fall. Priest nailed a flipping dive onto both men, then Bunny came off the top rope with a crossbody to the outside. Priest took Miz back inside the ring and tried to finish things with Hit the Lights, but Miz countered into the Skull-Crushing Finale but Bunny broke the count. Bunny took out Morrison outside the ring with a destroyer. He then tagged back into the match and hit a crossbody on Miz, who was held on Priest's shoulders, before scoring the pinfall. There's no doubt that this was an absolute success. Bunny didn't look like a seasoned professional or anything, but he had more than a little going offensively and had to sell for a long stretch in the match. He carried his weight here, and by any measure, this was a true success. Bad Bunny & Damian Priest def. The Miz & John Morrison via pinfall.
SmackDown Women's Championship -- Sasha Banks (c) vs. Bianca Belair: Banks took Belair down early, but Belair fired right back up, exchanging shoves before easily flipping past Banks twice. The women continued to battle with Banks trying to use speed and slickness to counter the power and pure athleticism of Belair. Banks tried to hit a suicide dive on Belair outside the ring, but Belair caught her and rolled through, pressing Banks above her head and carrying her up the ring steps before throwing her back into the ring. Belair tried for a moonsault on Banks, but Banks used Belair's hair to counter and landed a series of hard knees for a two count. Outside the ring, Banks again tried to use the hair of Belair to pull her toward the ring post, but Belair reversed and pulled Banks into the post instead. Back in the ring, Belair held Banks in an extended vertical suplex, bouncing Banks off the ring ropes multiple times before finally driving her into the mat. Banks continued to try to use Belair's hair as a weapon, but it continued to backfire until Belair hit a standing shooting star press. Belair took to the air again, trying to come off the top rope with a 450 splash, but Banks was able to get her knees up to counter the move. Belair hit a series of powerbombs, scoring a near-fall. But when going for a third, Banks managed to counter with a facebuster. Banks followed up with a tornado DDT for another near-fall. Another two count came after Banks hit a frog splash. Banks wrapped Belair's hair around Belair's arm and wrenched on a submission, switching to a Banks Statement as the referee neared a five count. Belair managed to get to the ropes, but Banks hit a series of kicks to the head as she grew increasingly frustrated. Banks ran to the corner to deliver a knee strike, but Belair moved out of the way before heading back to the top rope and hitting the 450 splash for two count. Belair went for the KOD and Banks grabbed the hair again. Belair whipped her with the hair and they went back and forth with reversals before Belair hit the KOD for the win. This was everything expected from these two women. A truly fantastic match that saw both women give it everything in a bout that had several convincing false finishes before a classic counter-based finish. A fantastic capper to Night 1 of WrestleMania. Bianca Belair def. Sasha Banks via pinfall.
SUNDAY MATCHES
"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton: Before the match, The Fiend was shown "burning" and returning to his original form, no longer appearing burned. Alexa Bliss cranked a giant Jack-in-the-box next to the ring before The Fiend emerged. The Fiend dove off the box, nailing Orton with a clothesline and then hitting a uranage suplex. Orton attacked The Fiend on the outside of the ring, dropping him on the announce table, but his offense had no effect before The Fiend locked in the mandible claw. Orton escaped back into the ring and hit the hanging DDT, again to no effect as The Fiend came back to continue his assault. After sending The Fiend face-first into the box, Orton finally was able to start doing some damage. As Orton built momentum, he tried to hit the RKO but The Fiend countered into the mandible claw. The Fiend attempted to hit Sister Abigail, but fire shot from the ring posts and The Fiend looked at Alexa Bliss, who was seated on the box with black goo shooting down her face. The distraction allowed Orton to hit the RKO and score the pinfall victory. After the match, The Fiend stared down Bliss before the lights went out. When the lights came back, both had disappeared. This was very odd all around. The pre-match spectacle of The Fiend's entrance was great, but the match itself didn't really do much before the sudden, very odd ending. Randy Orton def. "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt via pinfall.
Women's Tag Team Championship -- Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler (c) vs. Natalya & Tamina: Natalya was able to go hold-for-hold with Baszler early, leading to Jax tagging in. Jax called for Tamina, who took the tag from Natalya. Jax and Tamina traded headbutts before Tamina tried for a bodyslam, but Jax was able to counter before being floored with a tandem backdrop. The challengers continued their hot start, isolating Baszler through a series of tags, leading to a near fall when Natalya hit a slingshot into a Tamina superkick. Baszler was able to hit a knee to Natalya's face to finally take over the match, going to work on Natalya's knee after putting her down. Jax was in for a moment and tried to lock in a stretch muffler but Natalya attempted to counter into an armbar before she ate another knee from Baszler. Jax hit Natalya with the one-arm spinebuster before Tamina made the save. Tamina got the hot tag and took the fight to Baszler, getting the upper hand before Baszler took her out on the top rope. Jax came off the second rope with a double crossbody to the challengers for a near fall on Tamina. After absorbing some insults from Jax, Tamina finally managed to hit a body slam on the bigger woman. Tamina came off the top rope with a splash, but Jax was able to move out of the way. Natalya tagged in and locked Jax in the sharpshooter, but Baszler was the legal woman in the match. Baszler slid in and locked in the Kirifuda Clutch to score the win. A perfectly good tag match with no real rough spots other than Tamina's slam of Jax not really hitting the way it was intended. Nia Jax & Shayna Baszler def. Natalya & Tamina via submission.
Kevin Owens vs. Sami Zayn: A fired-up Owens hit a pop-up powerbomb just seconds into the match, but Zayn rolled out of the ring. Owens looked to powerbomb Zayn onto the ring apron, calling back to their feud in NXT, but Zayn was able to escape back into the ring where he was met by more offense from Owens with a cannonball into the corner. Zayn was eventually able to hit a brainbuster on the apron to finally get some offense flowing, looking to Logan Paul at ringside for approval before hitting a Michinoku driver for a near fall. Owens fought back on the top rope, knocking Zayn to the mat and hitting a frog splash for his own two count. Owens tried for the package piledriver but was countered into an exploder suplex into the turnbuckles from Zayn. Zayn countered another big move from Owens, avoiding a stunner to hit the Blue Thunderbomb. Zayn then went on a flurry of suplexes before a brainbuster for yet another near fall. As Owens came back with a superplex and a series of clotheslines in the corner, Zayn countered into a Helluva Kick, but Owens came back with a pair of superkicks and a stunner for the three count. After the match, Paul tried to shake Owens' hand, but Zayn got angry, claiming Paul was his guest of honor, leading Paul to shove him to the floor and raise Owens' hand. The crowd booed Paul and immediately began cheering when it became clear that the inevitable stunner was incoming. Owens delivered by dropping Paul. This was a very good match between guys with a lot of history -- and the chemistry that comes with it. The Logan Paul business was what it was. At least he ate a stunner. Kevin Owens def. Sami Zayn via pinfall.
United States Championship -- Riddle (c) vs. Sheamus: Sheamus got off to a fast start, trying to work the arm of Riddle before resorting to a punch to the stomach and stomp of the head after Riddle mounted an early a comeback. Sheamus continued the physicality with clubbing forearms, but Riddle came back with a huge flipping belly-to-belly suplex from the top rope. Riddle flurried with strikes and hit the Pele kick into an exploder suplex and senton as he made his big comeback. Riddle hit a jackhammer for a near fall in a subtle callout to Goldberg. Sheamus finally cut off Riddle's offense with a big knee as Riddle flipped over the top rope and followed up with an Alabama slam for a near fall. The big moves kept coming, with Riddle hitting a twisting springboard moonsault to the outside before finally slowing things down a bit with an armbar attempt, which Sheamus was able to counter into a powerbomb. The second big botch of the match came when Sheamus slipped from the top rope as he was trying to hit White Noise. After a diving knee, Sheamus scored a near fall and then set up for the Brogue Kick, but Riddle countered and tried to hit a springboard moonsault but was caught by a mid-air Brogue Kick by Sheamus for the pin. This was a surprisingly sloppy match. There were multiple botches throughout and the final Brogue Kick caught Riddle square in the mouth, drawing a good amount of blood. Despite the issues, the bulk of the match was a solid, hard-hitting affair. Sheamus def. Riddle via pinfall to win the title.
Intercontinental Championship -- Big E (c) vs. Apollo Crews (Nigerian Drum Fight): Big E immediately went to work with a kendo stick, wearing out the ribs of Crews before sending him crashing into some of the drums at ringside. Crews managed to get his hands on the kendo stick for a bit of retaliation before Big E hit the spear through the ropes to the floor. Big E tried to set up some of the ring steps, allowing Crews to get back into the match, eventually trying to drop the steps on Big E. Big E was able to move and hit a uranage suplex from the ring apron onto the steps set up on the outside. Crews fired up and came back with a flurry of shots with a kendo stick but missed when trying to hit a splash on Big E from the top rope through a table. Big E hit the Big Ending and was seemingly on his way to retain the title, but Dabba Kato ran in and took out Big E, hitting a choke slam and placing Crews on top for the three count. This was short, but very brutal. Every bit of offense was heavy and meaningful before the Dabba Kato run-in. The only big knock here is that the announcers acted as though they'd never seen Kato, despite him being a fixture on Raw Underground in 2020 and someone selected in the draft. Apollo Crews def. Big E via pinfall to win the title.
Raw Women's Championship -- Asuka (c) vs. Rhea Ripley: Asuka hit a dropkick and flurried with strikes before trying for a quick roll-up and then backslide, neither even getting to a one count. Ripley hit with a chop but was sent into the turnbuckle, which Asuka then kicked into her face. Ripley battled through the continued knees and kicks of Asuka before Asuka missed with a hip attack, allowing Ripley to start grinding away. Ripley hit a series of short-arm clotheslines before Asuka caught a kick and turned it into a leg lock. Ripley was able to muscle out of the hold to hit a German suplex for a near fall. Ripley took Asuka to the top rope, but Asuka was able to fire off a series of elbows to set up a missile dropkick. Asuka hit her own German suplex and a hip attack before a flurry of kicks to set up another hip attack. Ripley got a reprieve from Asuka's attack after dropkicking the champion from the top rope to the outside and then driving Asuka from her shoulders into the ring apron. Asuka was able to drive Ripley into the floor with a DDT from the apron and tried for an armbar back inside, continuing to go back to the arm of the powerhouse. Ripley countered an Asuka Lock into a pin, forcing Asuka to break the hold. Seconds later, Ripley was able to hit Riptide after ducking a kick to win the title. A good enough match, but not quite to the level of Asuka's best and certainly not on the level of Bianca Belair vs. Sasha Banks from Night 1. Rhea Ripley def. Asuka via pinfall to win the title.
Universal Championship -- Roman Reigns (c) vs. Edge vs. Daniel Bryan: Reigns went right at Bryan, landing a right hand before Edge jumped on the champion. The action quickly spilled out to the floor with Reigns trying to set up the announce table for violence, but Bryan landed a suicide dive. Jey Uso took out Bryan with a superkick and Edge took out Reigns to be the only man standing amid the chaos. Edge took out Uso with a DDT on the ring steps, taking away Reigns' ace in the hole. Edge and Bryan went at it in the ring before Reigns grabbed Edge from the apron. Bryan slid between the legs of both men and drove Reigns face-first into the edge of the ring before a flurry of offense on Edge. Bryan tried to hit Reigns with another suicide dive but was caught and dumped on the floor by the champion. Edge countered a Reigns Superman punch with a DDT before setting up for a spear. Reigns hit his own counter, drilling Edge with a Superman punch and setting up for his own spear, but Edge countered with a sunset flip before the men hit spears simultaneously. This allowed Bryan to get back in the match with diving headbutts on both men before a near fall on Reigns. Bryan hit both men with Yes Kicks before a running knee to Edge and a kick to Reigns' head for another near fall. Bryan's hot run continued as he locked Reigns in the Yes Lock until Edge broke the hold. Bryan responded by putting Edge in the same hold, this time with Reigns making the save. Reigns pummeled Bryan before taking him to the outside and powerbombing Bryan through the announce table. As Bryan was laid out, Edge drove through Reigns with a spear. Reigns and Edge ended up back in the ring with Reigns ripping a chair away from Edge. Edge responded by taking Reigns to the ground and locking in a crossface, then grabbing a piece of the now-broken chair and putting it in Reigns' mouth to pull back on the hold. As Reigns was about to tap, Bryan caught his hand and locked in the Yes Lock. Bryan and Edge traded headbutts, both holding Reigns in their respective holds before they broke and Bryan unleashed a flurry of strikes. Bryan went for the running knee on Edge but was hit by a spear before Edge hit Reigns with a spear, but Bryan pulled the referee from the ring before the three count. Edge snapped and attacked with a steel chair before looking to hit both opponents with a con-chairto. He managed to hit Bryan with the move, but Uso ran to the ring to attack Edge before getting speared. Reigns got back to his feet, took out Edge with a spear and hit his own con-chairto, placing Edge on top of Bryan and pinning both men to retain the title. A thriller in the main event with all three men delivering in a wild match. All three men had believable moments where they had the match won and the double-submission spot was especially good. For the second night, WrestleMania had a worthy main event. Roman Reigns def. Edge and Daniel Bryan via pinfall to retain the title.
