Even more history has been made! Title matches and changes are among some of the most important and remembered moments in all of WrestleMania. The show has been around for the better part of forty years now and there have been dozens of title changes throughout its history. This year’s edition was another two night event, featuring even more title matches where titles changed hands.
There were five title matches during the second night of WrestleMania 37 with three title changes. First up, Sheamus defeated Riddle to win the United States Title by hitting the Brogue Kick as Riddle was springboarding through the air. This marks Sheamus’ third reign as champion and his first reign since 2012. The win also ends Riddle’s first reign, which lasted 49 days.
It was a repeat. Check out Sheamus regaining the title:

Second, Apollo Crews defeated Big E. to win the Intercontinental Title for the first time in his career. Crews’ victory ended Big E.’s s..

A surprise return. There is no show on the WWE calendar on the same level as WrestleMania. The show is the most important of the year and a special moment on the show can make or break someone’s career. More eyes are on the product during that one show than any other time of the year and every now and then you see a fresh face. That was the case this year.
WWE is just starting to get back to normal after the Coronavirus pandemic but things are still not quite back to how they were before. The last year has seen some rather different ways of presenting the WWE product, including some ideas that did not exactly work. That was the case last fall, but now someone who came and went is back again in a very different role.

Can you blame her? There are certain moments in wrestling that you just know are special. It might be a great match, a great interview or a great segment, but when you see one of them, you know that you are seeing something that is going to be remembered for a long time. A lot of those moments come at WrestleMania, and that was the case again this weekend.
The Women’s Revolution has changed the was wrestling world and that has been a very good thing. Nearly six years ago, a group of women came up from NXT and brought in a new generation of women’s wrestling, changing the way that everything worked. Women were suddenly being treated as something serious and it was a huge change of pace. There was still a long way to go, and one of those milestones was covered at WrestleMania 37.
The main event of the first night of WrestleMania 37 featured SmackDown Women’s Champion Sasha Banks defending her title against Royal Rumble winner Bianca Belair. The match ended with Belair defeating Banks t..

So long? Commentary is one of the most important parts of a wrestling show because it is there to point you in the right direction. Fans are going to react to things how they want to but a promotion can show them where the want them to go. A commentary team can do more than a few things and since WWE has multiple television shows a week, they have multiple teams to fill. One of their more prominent names might be gone for good.
The WWE announce teams are some of the most well known voices in wrestling. Granted a lot of them tend to start merging together over time but you can often tell when someone from WWE is speaking. On rarer occasions, you can also tell when someone new comes in because their voice is completely different than anyone else’s. Now one of those voices is going away, and might be gone for good.

Add it to the card. We are less than six days away from Fastlane, though I’m not sure how much you would know that from watching WWE TV. The company has gone all out in building towards WrestleMania and seems to have completely forgotten that Fastlane is happening as well. They have to build something though and they worked on that during this week’s show.
There are a lot of different ways to set up a feud in wrestling. Some of these are a bit more personal than others though and that opens up a series of doors of its own. With so many options available, it can be difficult to find the one that works best. Some of them are only going to leave some people scratching their heads though, and that might be the case with a new Fastlane match.
This week on Monday Night Raw, a match between Braun Strowman and Shane McMahon was announced for Fastlane. The match was scheduled to take place during this week’s Monday Night Raw but a brawl took place before the match could start. McMahon has spe..

Keep the gold coming. Winning a title in wrestling is impressive, but what is more impressive is winning a title even more. Some champions have held titles multiple times, with an even smaller number having an incredible number of reigns with a title. Occasionally it can almost go too high to mean anything anymore and we might be seeing that again.
With less than thirty days to go before WrestleMania 37, it is time to get the card ready. Some of the matches have already been set but that still leaves a lot of work to do. There are a lot of title matches that need to be set up and even with another pay per view to go between now and WrestleMania, WWE is not wasting time. Another title match was announced on this week’s Monday Night Raw and it was done in a hurry.
The New Day defeated the Hurt Business during this week’s Monday Night Raw to become the new Raw Tag Team Champions. Following the win, AJ Styles and Omos came to the ring, with Styles saying that he had never been a Tag Team..

The card grows. We are on the Road To WrestleMania but there is another spot to cover on the way there. That would be Fastlane, though WWE has not exactly gone out of its way to build up the card. With less than a week before the show, there was not a single Monday Night Raw match announced for the card. They helped fix that in a big way during this week’s show.
One of the biggest feuds on Monday Night Raw at the moment has been the rivalry between Drew McIntyre and Sheamus. The two had been friends for twenty years but Sheamus turned on McIntyre for the chance to become WWE Champion again. This led to a pair of hard hitting, violent matches, the most recent of which ended in a draw. Now we have a chance to continue things.
This week on Monday Night Raw, McIntyre mentioned that he was facing Sheamus at Fastlane. This will mark their third match in less than a month with McIntyre winning the first and the second going to a draw when the two of them hit each other in the face with the ..

Well that was fast. We are less than a month away from WrestleMania 37, which is going to be one of the biggest weekends in a very long time. The show is taking place over the course of two straight nights for the second consecutive year and that means things are going to be even bigger than usual. WWE is going to need to do something big for the show and now we know something new.
Earlier this month, Bobby Lashley became the new WWE Champion in a moment over fifteen years in the making. Lashley has been on an absolute roll in recent months and a title reign was long overdue. Part of the problem with having him be so dominant is that he is going to have some trouble finding an opponent. There are only a few challengers who make sense and now we know who is up next.
This week on Monday Night Raw, former two time WWE Champion Drew McIntyre was announced as Lashley’s next challenge for the WWE Championship, with his title shot coming at WrestleMania 37. Lashley attacked McIntyre at Elim..
