Did you pay close enough attention to night one of the 40th 'Showcase of the Immortals'?
‘The Showcase of the Immortals’, ‘The Grandest Stage of Them All’, The Greatest Spectacle In All Of Entertainment’, ‘The Granddaddy of Them All’, and now the night where WWE called back to WrestleMania 39 with a single epic camera shot.
Pinned by The Rock after a sensationally melodramatic 40-minute+ tag team contest, Cody Rhodes sat in the ring, the emotion drained from his face as once more, ‘The American Nightmare’ would have the odds stacked against him on the biggest night of his life. That came after Rhodes and Seth Rollins took the fight to ‘The Final Boss’ and Roman Reigns, coming within inches of moving one step closer to ending The Bloodline’s grip over WWE.
Elsewhere, Sami Zayn ended GUNTHER’s 666-day reign as Intercontinental Champion, the Undisputed Tag Team Championships were at last split in an epic Six-Pack Ladder Match, Jade Cargill’s WrestleMania debut ended victoriously, and Rhea Ripley saw off ‘The Man’ to continue her year-long reign as Women’s World Champion.
But were you paying close enough attention to night one of WrestleMania 40?
