WrestleMania 41 wrapped up with plenty of jaw-dropping moments, but the biggest shock of the night came when John Cena defeated Cody Rhodes to become the Undisputed WWE Champion and set a new record with his seventeenth world title win. What should have been a legendary ending quickly turned into a head-scratcher thanks to an unexpected and confusing appearance from Travis Scott.
Fans were expecting an epic sendoff or a milestone moment for Cena, but instead, many are now talking more about the bizarre involvement of the rapper than the wrestling itself. The match felt a little off, especially when you compare it to the main event from Night One, which saw Seth Rollins Roman Reigns, and CM Punk tear the house down in what is already being called one of the best WrestleMania matches in recent memory.
Still, the night had plenty of bright spots. The opening match featuring Iyo Sky defending her Women’s World Championship against Rhea Ripley and Bianca Belair was a major hit. Fast paced intense and filled with standout moments it is already being mentioned as one of the best women’s matches in WrestleMania history.
Dominik Mysterio pulled off a surprise win that turned some heads. He managed to win over the Las Vegas crowd and took home his first singles title on the main roster. He beat Bron Breakker Finn Balor and Penta to capture the Intercontinental Championship. That makes him the only member of Judgment Day still holding gold after Liv Morgan and Raquel Rodriguez lost their Women’s Tag Titles.
Their titles went to Lyra Valkyria and the returning Becky Lynch. Valkyria is now not only one half of the new tag champs but also the first ever Women’s Intercontinental Champion making it a huge weekend for her.
Drew McIntyre and Damian Priest brought chaos and energy to the ring with their Sin City Street Fight. Chairs tables and plenty of hard hits gave fans exactly what they wanted and McIntyre walked away with the win.
Logan Paul added another impressive victory to his record by beating AJ Styles in a singles match. Even though he is not a full time performer he continues to prove he belongs in WWE with every match he has.
And in the quickest match of the night Randy Orton took down mystery opponent and TNA World Champion Joe Hendry. It was short and sweet with Orton walking out looking as strong as ever.
Over both nights six championships changed hands and while the final match of the weekend left fans with mixed feelings there is no doubt WrestleMania 41 delivered a weekend full of huge moments unforgettable surprises and matches that will be talked about for a long time.
