Brock Lesnar vs. Drew McIntyre headlines this year’s bizarre WrestleMania.
WWE
Day one of WrestleMania is done, but the event isn’t over yet. Today, for the first time ever, is day two. After Braun Strowman was crowned new Universal Champion and The Undertaker defeated AJ Styles in an absolutely insane boneyard match on day one, today’s show will be headlined by Brock Lesnar versus Drew McIntyre. We’re betting that match is going to be just as crazy and entertaining.
Originally scheduled for the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, this year’s wrestling extravaganza is taking place at WWE’s Performance Center in Orlando, Florida. Instead of the planned 60,000-plus attendance, there are no fans in the Performance Center. It’s weird, but day one went surprisingly well. It was a fun show.
Other than the WWE Championship match, Edge returns to wrestle his first singles match since 2011 against Randy Orton. John Cena is also back, taking on “The Fiend” Bray Wyatt in a Firefly Funhouse match. If day one’s Boneyard match is anything to go by, the Cena match will be absurd — but fun.
