Solo Sikoa accompanies Fatu for his entrance, with Fatu sporting a werewolf mask.

LA Knight arrives to the stage in a luxury car, identified by commentators as a Maserati.

This match remains unpredictable. WWE could elevate Fatu with a victory or choose a different narrative direction. Excitement surrounds either outcome.

Anticipation builds for this contest.

This bout features two prominent figures.

While the storyline development might seem brief, the presence of LA Knight, a top entertainer, and Jacob Fatu, a rising star, is captivating.

Expect a compelling match between these fan favorites. Potential external interference exists, but the focus remains on this exciting clash.

The match commenced with Cargill attacking Naomi aggressively. Naomi countered with an eye poke.

Bianca Belair’s absence from this storyline seemed peculiar given her past involvement and friendship with Naomi. Her potential intervention in this match was considered.

The contest featured notable wrestling maneuvers, including Cargill showcasing her power by transitioning a catch into a jackhammer.

Cargill executed a powerbomb from an electric chair position, culminating in the “Jaded” maneuver for the win. Cargill delivered a strong performance, albeit with minor awkward moments.

Naomi entered first, followed by Jade Cargill, whose entrance featured a weather report graphic indicating an incoming “storm” – a nod to Cargill’s theme.

The match is currently in progress.

Triple H acknowledged Uso’s title victory with a complimentary social media post.

A significant non-title women’s match is next.

Jade Cargill will face Naomi. Former teammates, they now stand as rivals.

Their animosity stemmed from Naomi’s attack on Jade, leading to an ongoing feud. Cargill represents emerging talent, while Naomi brings veteran experience and has excelled in her current role.

A Cargill victory is anticipated, though the outcome remains uncertain.

The New Day exited the ring rapidly, belts in hand, celebrating on stage. They have embraced their evolved personas.

The tag team championships have changed hands, a decision perceived as justified. The revitalized New Day possess significant momentum, and a title shift was deemed necessary.

Marking their 12th championship, anticipation surrounds their next actions.

Crowd energy is escalating, largely due to Ivar’s impressive performance, showcasing surprising athleticism for his size.

An attempted Doomsday-sault by Ivar nearly resulted in a mishap as he slipped on the top rope, but he recovered safely.

The War Raiders aimed for their War Machine maneuver, but Kofi Kingston intervened, hinting at an imminent match conclusion.

Xavier Woods executed a top-rope stomp, followed by a cover. The New Day are the new champions!

The New Day’s challenge for the world tag team titles is currently happening.

The energy level has slightly decreased. Discussions arose regarding the inclusion of this match on the card, as some believed other tag title matches held greater prominence.

Nevertheless, the match is proceeding, and a New Day victory is anticipated, barring interference from Big E.

Criss Angel and George Kittle are among the spectators.

The tag team title match is imminent, featuring a heel New Day.

The New Day, originally a trio with Big E until his injury, remained a three-man stable for a decade until Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods’ recent turn against Big E.

Now portrayed as villains, Kofi Kingston recently discussed this transition.

Regardless of online opinions regarding Uso’s world champion status, the live audience reaction was overwhelmingly positive and palpable.

The crowd’s enthusiasm for Jey’s reconciliation with brother Jimmy, his opponent at last year’s event, enriched Jey’s narrative arc.

Uso’s Royal Rumble victory and subsequent challenge to Gunther necessitated a championship win to validate the storyline. This marks a significant moment, with WWE and Jey tasked to build upon this victory.

It transpired! WWE acted decisively.

Jey Uso transitions from tag team competitor to world champion, a milestone certain to evoke familial pride.

Though not renowned for in-ring prowess, Uso is currently among the most popular figures. This marks only Gunther’s second singles defeat on the main roster, the prior one also at WrestleMania.

Gunther succumbed to his signature sleeper hold.

Popularity seemingly played a decisive factor.

Jimmy Uso joined his brother Jey in the ring, displaying visible emotion.

Jey and Jimmy exited through the crowd together, a feel-good moment to commence the event.

The competitors exchanged blows, evoking audience reactions of “Yeet” and boos.

Jey executed a powerbomb and a superkick, setting up for a frog splash…

A near fall followed the frog splash. Subsequently, a sleeper hold was applied, forcing Gunther to submit. “YEET!”

Gunther also showcased impactful moves, including a powerbomb, but Jey kicked out at two.

A second spear attempt and a frog splash followed, yet another kick out.

Gunther retrieved his championship belt, feigning departure.

Instead, Gunther struck Jey with the belt, followed by a splash, yet Jey kicked out again.

A sleeper hold is now applied, signaling the match’s climax.

The match began deliberately, aligning with Gunther’s technical wrestling style. Jey, while less technically inclined, is positioned as the underdog, suggesting a narrative of resilience against Gunther’s offense.

Jey initiated with a spear, but Gunther broke the pin.

Predicting the outcome remains challenging. Jey’s prior record in world title matches is 0-6 and 0-3 against Gunther, a point emphasized in the storyline.

Gunther’s entrance contrasted with Jey’s. The Ring General’s persona offers a distinct clash in styles.

As the match proceeds, recall a prior interview exploring Gunther’s reservations about facing Jey.

Signs displaying “yeet” are prevalent, and commentator Pat McAfee joined the announce table. Uso, adorned in blue and gold, made his entrance through the audience.

CM Punk’s arrival elicited a significant ovation as cameras showcased the main event competitors entering Allegiant Stadium, accompanied by Paul Heyman.

Charlotte Flair’s entrance was met with resounding boos, exceeding the prior ovation.
