6 Ups & 3 Downs From WWE WrestleMania 42 - Sunday (Results & Review)
A significant upgrade over Saturday's show with a tremendous main event.
Well, that was better.
Before WrestleMania 42 even began, the two cards pretty much signaled that the second night was going to be much better from an in-ring perspective and a more entertaining show.
Thankfully, WWE delivered what, overall, was a really good, solid show. They put over the two newer, big stars in Oba Femi and Trick Williams. The six men in the ladder match put the throttle down and had a blistering performance. Danhausen provided the requisite silliness.
And then there was CM Punk and Roman Reigns, who delivered an incredible main event that was a legitimately brisk 34 minutes with brilliant pacing and great action throughout. Punk turned back the clock a bit, but his ego got the best of him, leading to Reigns toppling him and capturing the World Heavyweight Championship.
Not everything was great, however. While Trick’s United States Championship victory was a big deal, they dropped the ball with the execution of the match. Even then, it’s hard to consider it a significant negative. It just could have been better.
