WrestleMania 40 Sunday will go down in history as the greatest professional wrestling show of all time. A great professional wrestling show does not only mean great matches but also great storytelling, character-building, and great surprises. WrestleMania 40 Sunday had some shocking moments as well, which made the show so much more enjoyable. This will be a show that no wrestling fan will forget anytime soon. WrestleMania has become an even bigger brand thanks to this year.
Let’s look at the things that made WrestleMania 40 Sunday the best professional wrestling show of all time.
WrestleMania 40 Sunday epitomizes professional wrestling
WrestleMania 40 Saturday was a very good show, but the weather was not ideal, and it was cold. Therefore, the crowd was not able to enjoy the show to the fullest. There were some incredible matches, and the main event was one of the best. However, Sunday was a totally different proposition, as Triple H made sure that the fans got a show for all ages.
A shocking opening
The start of any WrestleMania is extremely important, as it sets the precedent for the rest of the night. The first match was for the World Heavyweight Championship, and it was the perfect match to open the show with. It was between Seth Rollins and Drew McIntyre, with CM Punk on commentary. The entrances were grander on Sunday, and both men got great entrances. It was a very good and quick match, and it was finishers galore. It was finally the moment Drew McIntyre had been waiting for. However, the shocking part of this opening happened here, as he poked CM Punk and paid the price. He was attacked by Punk, and then Damian Priest cashed in Money in the Bank in dramatic fashion and became the World Heavyweight Champion. This made WrestleMania 40 Sunday a great show already.
Incredible Wrestling Matches
There were some truly great matches at WrestleMania 40 Sunday. The first of those was the Triple Threat United States Championship match between Logan Paul, Randy Orton, and Kevin Owens. It was truly a great match, and all three men were at their best. They had a 17-minute banger. Logan Paul continues to show how great he is, and Randy Orton and Kevin Owens were having fun. That match elevated the United States Championship. The next truly amazing match was the WWE Women’s Championship match between Iyo Sky and Bayley. It was one of the best women’s matches in WrestleMania history. Both of these women were showing out, and they made sure that they went out there and killed it. Iyo Sky had her best match, and Bayley was the deserving winner.
The greatest main event in WrestleMania history
The main event of WrestleMania 40 Sunday is what has propelled this show to being the greatest professional wrestling show of all time. It was the most anticipated match in wrestling in quite some time. It was Roman Reigns vs Cody Rhodes for the Undisputed WWE Universal Championship. Both men had truly spectacular entrances fit for the main event of WrestleMania. Cody Rhodes came from the ground, and Roman Reigns was plated by an orchestra. They had a 5-star classic in the first half of the match. Then the chaos started as Jey Uso came out, and he took out Jimmy Uso. Solo Sikoa interfered and was taken out by John Cena. The Rock came out, and the fans got thrilled for a lifetime, as both men faced off. The Shield music played, and the fans hoped that it would have been Dean Ambrose. It was Seth Rollins, and finally, the gong was heard, and everyone lost their minds. Roman Reigns had the choice to take out Cody Rhodes, but he became obsessed with Seth Rollins and hit him with the chair. The storytelling was top-tier, and finally, Cody Rhodes finished the story.
