It's the week of the British Invasion, when WWE finally start really paying attention to their lucrative market in the heart of the old empire, tying up some of the nations' best emerging talents and making them all fight for their attention like strutting peacocks. The first show naturally drew a lot of praise - not least for the talent on show - and it now seems inevitable that this bold move across the Atlantic will be cemented even further when WWE sniff how well it's gone down.

Elsewhere, it's all been about WrestleMania: we saw confirmation that WrestleMania 34 will return to New Orleans, that The Undertaker and John Cena won't lock horns at 33, and that Samoa Joe is set for a big fight at this year's Showcase Of The Immortals. Could he have taken 'Taker's slot against Cena? Could 'Taker then be free to face a returning Finn Balor? So many questions, people, and yet so few concrete answers.

Meanwhile, Brock Lesnar faces a legal case from Mark Hunt, Shinsuke Nakamura might be on his way up to the main roster and Roman Reigns got voted The Most Hated Wrestler Of 2016. But you probably knew all of that already. What you didn't know is how the WWE roster - current and former - responded to this momentous week on social media.

25. Rule Britannia

Britannia might rule the waves, but WWE made a big claim to try and rule the other side of the Atlantic, launching the UK Champtionship Tournament in style.

Let's hope it develops into something better than the well-received Cruiserweight tournament did, eh?
