WWE WRESTLEMANIA 42 SATURDAY RESULTS:

  • Six-Man Tag Team Match: LA Knight and The Usos (Jey Uso & Jimmy Uso) defeated IShowSpeed and The Vision (Austin Theory & Logan Paul) by pinfall. After the match, Logan Paul beat up IShowSpeed, but Speed was helped by The Usos and Knight, who set it up so he could jump off the ring post and splash Paul through the commentary table. — This was generic, but IShowSpeed did well, they crossed off Jey Uso's entrance (which is one of their priorities), and the right group won, so it's mission accomplished, even if it's not going on my highlight reel for match quality by any means.
  • Unsanctioned Match: Jacob Fatu defeated Drew McIntyre by pinfall. — Fun match. I think if this were Hell in a Cell with the same spots, it would have looked a bit weak for not having any blood or whatever, but I still enjoyed it. Fatu's such a star and McIntyre is always great.
  • Nikki Bella is not medically cleared to compete, so Paige is taking her place to team with Brie Bella instead. 
  • Fatal 4-Way Tag Team Match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship: Brie Bella and Paige defeated The Irresistible Forces (Lash Legend and Nia Jax) (c), Alexa Bliss & Charlotte Flair and Bayley & Lyra Valkyria by pinfall (Paige pinning Bliss) — While it sucks that The Bella Twins couldn't get their win, and I still think they need to go in the record books as champions at some point, having Paige return like this will be a moment a lot of people will go gaga over.
  • Singles Match for the WWE Women's Intercontinental Championship: Becky Lynch defeated AJ Lee (c) by pinfall to win the title! — Fine enough, but I'm not a fan of Lynch winning the belt back.
  • Gunther defeated Seth Rollins by referee stoppage (via sleeper hold) due to Bron Breakker interfering and spearing Rollins on the outside while the referee was distracted. — Good match with the best outcome they could have gone with.
  • Singles Match for the WWE Women's World Championship: Liv Morgan defeated Stephanie Vaquer (c) by pinfall to win the title! — They're rushing this show, weirdly. I think this would have been better with a little more time, but it was solid.
  • John Cena announced the attendance (50,816...which definitely isn't the right number). Then, Bianca Belair came out and announced that she's pregnant! Cute joke about the attendance being 50,817 instead. Awesome. Congrats to Belair and Montez Ford! 
  • Singles Match for the Undisputed WWE Championship: Cody Rhodes (c) defeated Randy Orton by pinfall — I'm very interested in their booking philosophy behind this match, as this was odd to have Cody low blow Orton, the whole Jelly Roll and Pat McAfee stuff, Orton giving an RKO to McAfee...it feels like there are a lot of cooks in the kitchen for this writing team and mixed signals are going on, but I'm interested.

Check out the podcast for my post-show review. In short, I thought this was a good first half, but if this would have been the entire WrestleMania, it would have felt hollow. We have another whole day tomorrow to finish this out. 

WWE WRESTLEMANIA 42 SUNDAY RESULTS:

  • The only thing to mention on the pre-show was that Dominik Mysterio's match with Finn Balor is now a street fight.
  • Oba Femi defeated Brock Lesnar by pinfall! — Hell yeah! They made the right call! I was so nervous they were going to put Lesnar over and make the same mistake they've made a million times before. I wish the match was longer, but Brock never wrestles long, so I can't say I'm surprised about that. Ultimately, I'll take a short match with Femi winning over a longer match with Lesnar coming out on top, for sure.
  • Six-Pack Ladder Match for the WWE Men's Intercontinental Championship: Penta (c) defeated Dragon Lee, JD McDonagh, Je'Von Evans, Rey Mysterio, and Rusev — As expected, this was a fun match. It's a shame they didn't show the entrances for Dragon Lee, Rusev, and JD McDonagh, which is disrespectful on a show that is this long with this much filler content. As much as I was hoping for Je'Von Evans to win, I'm cool with Penta retaining, for sure. Solid ladder match with some good spots.
  • Singles Match for the WWE United States Championship: Trick Williams defeated Sami Zayn (c) by pinfall to win the title! — Big fan of Trick. I like this decision a lot.
  • Street Fight: "The Demon" Finn Balor defeated Dominik Mysterio by pinfall. — This was fun. Good entrance for Balor. It won't be a memorable match by next year, I feel, but I enjoyed this segment enough.
  • Singles Match for the WWE Women's Championship: Rhea Ripley defeated Jade Cargill (c) by pinfall to win the title! — This wasn't working for me. The pace and the clumsy moments took me out. It seemed like they didn't know exactly what rhythm or story they wanted to tell and just didn't have chemistry. I see people praising it, but it just didn't connect for me. I'm glad Rhea won with Iyo Sky's help to offset B-Fab and Michin.
  • John Cena announced the attendance and was interrupted by The Miz and Kit Wilson. Danhausen then came out with a bunch of Littlehausens. One of them punched Wilson in the balls. Danhausen then took out The Miz and left. "Is this guy growing on me?" says my wife, as I agree that I don't get it with Danhausen, but damn it, I'm enjoying his WWE stuff so far. 
  • Singles Match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship: Roman Reigns defeated CM Punk (c) by pinfall to win the title! — This was awesome. I'm adding it to my Match of the Year list.
