What If WWE WrestleMania Was Always 2 Nights?

15. WrestleMania 21

WrestleMania 21 is another clear-cut pick, as in 2005, the Royal Rumble was effectively won by two people: Batista and John Cena.

While the match was restarted and Batista was given the official victory, and would go on to win the main event match against Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship, Cena was in nearly the exact same position, going second-to-last and beating John "Bradshaw" Layfield for the WWE Championship.

This was very much a reset moment for the roster to crown these two new champions, and Cena would even go on to exceed Batista's contributions (not to sell The Animal short), so a Saturday night finale where he topples the near year-long title reign of the evil JBL would have fit perfectly on this two-night lineup.

Funny enough, if this were two nights, there would have been more room to include more matches, which means the Money in the Bank ladder match might not have been created as that and the 30-man battle royal were a means to cram people onto the show.
