As was the case through the rest of the cruiserweight championship tournament, Ali vs. Alexander was an intensely physical, high-flying spectacular of a match.

Monday night on Raw, that is going to continue just as much, instead of people suddenly having a newfound respect for him, even in a loss. The WWE Universe will be treated to main event matches such as Brock Lesnar vs. Lesnar, the current champion, is reportedly looking to get back into the octagon for the UFC. I know that it was to prove that Strowman could win the tag titles on his own, and it was a cute WrestleMania moment, but what happens next?
Because of this, Roman Reigns seems to be a lock to win back the WWE Universal Champion.
Seth Rollins also made history tonight, becoming a Grand Slam Champion after winning this triple threat match.
Ronda Rousey could be a future opponent for Flair, especially after she impressed in her WWE debut at Wrestlemania. Finn Balor has been in limbo since returning from shoulder injury post-WrestleMania past year – from the inaugural WWE Universal Champion to many questionable feuds, Balor has been in a weird spot.
Another exciting match of the night was UFC icon Ronda Rousey teaming up with 1996 Atlanta Olympic Gold medal victor Kurt Angle to defeat Tripple H and his wife Stephanie McMahon.
The build for Ronda Rousey’s first WWE match was comical, and the highlights were usually someone going through a table or Triple H sucker punching Kurt Angle. Her trash talking was on point throughout the match, and she was able to mix it up with the best of them.
The Deadman retired at last year’s Wrestlemania after almost 27 years, following a defeat to Roman Reign that ended his undefeated Wrestlemania record. Asuka has no choice but to tap out, meaning that Charlotte Flair is the only woman to defeat Asuka since she debuted in WWE.
From celebs who are involved in matches to ones shown in the crowd, from former WWE Superstars and Legends on hand to watch the events to family members and other famous names, there will be no shortage of moments where names are dropped and faces are recognized.
Cena was informed Taker was here early on in the show, and rushed backstage to get ready.
The Undertaker squashed John Cena within minutes. WrestleMania 20 & 31 saw John Cena defeat Big Show and Rusev respectively, WrestleMania 22 saw JBL defeat Chris Benoit and Kevin Owens defeat Chris Jericho previous year at WrestleMania 33 and truthfully, it should be no different.

Last time The Leader of the Cenation lost like that was against Brock Lesnar at Summerslam 2014 and still got a rematch where he put together a decent performance.
