WWE WrestleMania 35: Live Updates, Results, Ratings, Surprises and New Champions

It's time WrestleMania, aka Christmas Grapple!

The biggest wrestling show of the year will be presented by the first main event. This is a triple threat between female champion Raw Ronda Rousey and SmackDown women's champion Charlotte Flair against Becky Lynch. It's a win-all-title match, which means that the winner goes away with both titles.

It's only the first of three major games of the title. Brock Lesnar, the famous human death machine, will face Royal Rumble winner Seth Rollins for the World Championship, while Kofi Kingston will get his first singles title at the WWE Championship when he faces Daniel Bryan.

With more than a dozen matches, these three league fights only skim the surface. We also have the return of Batista, Kurt Angle's retirement game, Roman Reigns' first WrestleMania game since returning from the fight against leukemia, and, surprisingly, so much more.

The show is live on the WWE network now. If you are not a member or if you can not watch, follow the results and ratings. The latest results will be pushed back to the top of the page. It goes without saying, upcoming spoilers!

John Cena, PhD, returns

It is now time for Elias to do what he does. There is an Elias in the ring who plays the guitar with two titantron Elias. Surprisingly, the crowd applauds. The real Elias in the ring plays a riff of the 7 Nation Army. Elias explains that WWE stands for Walk With Elias. The crowd is with him. It is surely the setting up of a spectacular rhythm.

And it's spectacular. He is interrupted by Dr. Thuganomics, 2002, John Cena. Cena wears a Yankees jersey and wears her Word Life suspenders. It's great. Cena, dressed in a pair of Reebok sneakers that he had to keep in a safe somewhere, gives a "freestyle" style. It was also great. Worth the price of admission alone.

Roman Reigns def. Drew McIntyre

The Scottish drummers are here to play in Drew McIntyre. These two players could have a good game but will face a crowd that has just reached a peak at #KofiMania. Reigns' music has cheers. It's his first WrestleMania to not participate in the main event since WrestleMania XXX.

According to announcer Corey Graves, Reigns, who has just returned from leukemia, is fighting for all those who have already been seriously ill. Reigns and McIntyre exchange punchy strikes before he hits hard. McIntyre beats on Reigns. They end up outside. Reigns misses a dropkick while driving. Back in the ring, McIntyre hits Alabama Slam.

The crowd is in the match but shows signs of exhaustion, now that three hours have pbaded in the main show and five hours since the start of the preshow. McIntyre slaps Reigns who gives the kick off to Reigns in berserk mode. Reigns hits a dropkick driving outside, then a Samoan drop.

Reigns hits a Superman Punch and sets up a spear. He hits and gets the count three.

Rating: 2.75 stars. There is nothing wrong with the match, but the crowd is tired and the end was anti-climatic.

Roman beats Drew clean with the spear in a match that did not interest him. The crowd is hitting a wall, I hope something can wake him up … #WrestleMania

Samoa Joe retains the title of champion of the United States

The US championship is on the line. Rey Mysterio appears as Mysterio of Spider-Man.

Both come into play, Joe hitting Mysterio with a big boot. Mysterio hurricanranas Joe in the ropes and hits a 619. Joe thwarts a dive into a rear throttle. Samoa Joe keeps.

Note: No notes. This one was too short to really count as a match. They will probably have an excellent revenge on SmackDown or the next pay-per-view.

Kofi Kingston Wins WWE Title

It's the hour of one of the most important and most anticipated games of the night. WrestleMania, do not dare to be sour …

The crowd is very high on Kingston and very low on Bryan. It's the hottest crowd of all night. Both begin with the chain fight before Bryan retires before Kofi takes a dip over the rope. Kingston gave rise to a painful surfboard presentation.

Bryan ends up outside. Kingston takes a dive, but Bryan stands out. Kingston crushes the ads table and potentially kills himself.

Bryan works on Kingston's back, including one knee flying from the top rope to the Kingston hanging rope. Bryan hits running in Kingston. Kingston tries to counter with a dropkick all by himself, but Bryan makes an incredible save against a Boston crab.

Kingston is starting to make a comeback and the crowd is hype. Kingston hits Bryan hard when he tries to get up. The crowd becomes even more exaggerated. Kingston tries a problem in paradise, which Bryan tries to counter with another Boston crab, but Kingston reveals himself and cradles Bryan. They exchange more cradles and Bryan tries and fails to lock the Labelle lock. It's easily the match of the night until now.

Bryan puts in place his knee busaiko but Kingston transforms it into a DDT SOS that replica then a lock Labelle. Kingston reaches the ropes, a huge pop of the crowd. Bryan hits his gatlin, Kingston stands up. The crowd is unleashed. Kingston uses an inverted DDT for a count of two.

The New Day fight with Rowan on the outside. Bryan will dive all three, but Kingston hits him with a punch and sets up the Trouble in Paradise. Bryan bends down and hits his knee busaiko for two shots. Bryan tramples Kingston's face and puts him in Labelle's lock.

Kingston escapes and gives Bryan the same face that Bryan gave him a few moments ago. Kingston hits the Trouble in Paradise and gets the one-two-three.

Rating: 4.5 stars. The best WWE Championship match at WrestleMania since Brock Lesnar vs. Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 31.

IIconics win women's team championships

Paige, from Fighting With Your Family's celebrity, is here as a guest commentator. The Boss & # 39; n & # 39; Hug Connection, still the most misguided Wrestling Wrestling Team, faces drivers IIconics, Nia Jax and Tamina, as well as Beth Phoenix and Natalya. Beth and Natalya are getting on the ring by Bret Hart in a cute moment.

Bayley and Tamina start. Some neat spots at first but the match installs in a rhythm. Natalya locks a double sniper on the Boss login "n" Hug at the same time, but Tamina leveled her then the brutes Tamina and Jax dominate like a bear against a group of puppies.

Jax and Tamina seize the turnbuckles to try to unleash a gigantic double splash, but Phoenix quickly wins over Jax. Phoenix installs Bayley for the Glam Slam from the top rope but the IIconics sneaks to win. We have new champions, guys.

Everyone here is encouraging the IIconics. What a moment of well-being! #Wrestlemania

– & # 39; the influencer & # 39; Brian Zane (@zmanbrianzane) April 8, 2019

Evaluation: 3 stars. Enjoyed some of the big spots in this match and a very good Phoenix performance during his return match, including the huge Glam Slam. Final clever to raise the IIconics over their mediocre status, even though they came dressed as they went to a costume party at high school. Happy times for the WWE universe.

Shane McMahon beats Miz

Members of the Hall of Fame clbad in 2019 go out to pay homage to DX get their own entrance. The Shane O 'Mac match is coming.

Shane arrives first and asks presenter Greg Hamilton to introduce him several times as "The Best of the World". The match begins with the chicane, while Shane comes out to approach Miz's father. Shane, notoriously stiff, pats Miz with painful boxing potatoes.

The match turns quickly when Shane poses Miz on the announcer's table to prepare for his flying elbow. Miz's father comes from nowhere to protect his son. The father of the Miz enters the ring. The crowd likes that. Shane starts beating Miz's father, then Miz enters and shoots Shane.

They fight outside before Miz returns to the ring to see if his father is down. Miz's father is now a fight meme.

The Miz bleeds, one way or the other. He returns to the crowd to fight with Shane. This is a Fall All Around match for those who have forgotten (me). Miz hits Shane from a chair shot, makes him pbad through a table and then hits him with … the roof of a golf cart. They are however in the crowd, so most people can not see them properly.

Miz hits the crushing end of the cranium on a camera stand for a count of two. Shane then climbs into the structure, which Miz makes him forget. They hit what is obviously a quilted rug. Both are eliminated, but Shane is at the top and counts all three. Lame.

Evaluation: 2 stars. Miz's father was the highlight of the evening. Although the roof of the golf cart is a nice touch and a disappointing finishing sequence, given what Shane is here for that.

Usos keep SmackDown team championships

We have a walkout from Lacey Evans before the Usos go to the SmackDown team championship game. They will defend against the bar, Shinsuke Nakamura and Rusev, as well as against the team Aleister Black and Ricochet.

The crowd is noticeably quieter for this one, but the action is good. With four teams and two people in the ring at all times, it's also too quick to recap.

The crowd comes alive when Ricochet enters the ring and does his magic with Cesaro. Cesaro makes his Cesaro swing on Ricochet as Sheamus clubs … everyone. Great time. Cesaro puts Ricochet in an elite shooter, but one of Usos separates him with a superkick.

Black and Rusev end up being the legal men, Black throws Rusev's camp. Black is awesome. I wonder if we could be friends. Probably not. He identifies Ricochet, with whom I probably could not be friends either. Rusev hits hard. The eight guys find themselves on the turnstiles for a spot at the eight-person superplex. Ricochet hits a 630 on Sheamus, tries the pin but he is broken by several guys.

The eight finishers exchange their movements. Good product. The machines create stereo splash on Sheamus to keep.

Rating: 4 stars. The crowd started slowly but ended loud. A lot of action in this game. It was a festival, certainly, but fun.

AJ Styles beats Randy Orton

Jerry "The King" Lawler is ready to comment on the next game. That's AJ Styles vs. Randy Orton. This could be a big one.

Chain of struggle to open the match. Orton opts for an RKO, avoids AJ. The crowd is hot on AJ, but there are also some strong songs of Orton. Orton is working on AJ's legs, but AJ is back in force with a beautiful dropkick. Orton rolls out the ring, AJ hits him with a forearm above the rope. After an outdoor action, Orton launches AJ for your first shot of the night.

Some back and forth, including a powerslam Orton. Orton's normal rhythm here, slowing things down after opening the scoring. AJ hits a calf crusher in the center of the ring, but Orton pulls the strings. This is a man with long limbs. Orton fights but sells his knee. Styles simulates a phenomenal forearm, leading Orton to look for an RKO and fall on his back. AJ hits a 450 springboard for a count of two. Cool place.

After a few more round trips, Orton meets the best superplex I've seen in years. He then hits a European uppercut that puts AJ out of the ring. AJ's sale is about tonight. Orton sets up a RKO, AJ counter with an enziguri, but Orton hits an RKO. He has two counts of indictment.

Orton goes for a top-rope RKO. AJ sneaks from below, hits a bicycle and Orton rolls out the ring. AJ is a phenomenal forearm on the outside. He throws Orton, hits another phenomenal forearm for the win.

Rating: 3.5 stars. Well fought. What you expected, but not what it could be.

Seth Rollins beats Brock Lesnar

The two men start a fight before the start of the match. Lesnar F-5 Rollins are outside the ring and usually in ruins. Lesnar brings him into the ring and asks the referee to start the game. Before the referee can do it, Lesnar returns Rollins to the outside. Logic Lesnar.

The referee rings the bell. Lesnar hits some German suplexes and tries an F-5, Rollins counters and the referee is knocked down in the process. Rollins hits a low blow and then kicks. Then another. Then another.

Three kicks trace the Beast for three counts. Rollins wins the clean universal championship.

Rating: 3 stars. Hot segment to start the show but not much. One can never be sure with Lesnar, but the way that unfolded this match gives the impression that he is heading towards UFC.

Alexa Bliss, the official host of the evening, opens the show. She says that she can create a WrestleMania moment in a snap of her fingers. She snaps her fingers and pulls out Hulk Hogan. It's like WrestleMania XXX again – but without The Rock or Steve Austin.

As Hogan and Bliss bow, Paul Heyman arrives. If Brock Lesnar is not the last, he is the first. There is your first shock WrestleMania.
