Result: Reigns landed two Superman punches and a Spear to win the title (27:11).

Rating: Fan response going into the match was hugely divided, and that was no different at crunch time, in addition to the audience both at home and in person being massively exhausted by the ridiculous 50-minute overrun.

As such, the crowd were fairly muted for large portions of the match, making it feel like anything but a Mania main event, compounded by the huge pops for Trips' offense and frequent booing of Reigns. Roman's inevitable victory pretty much sucked the air out of the arena and resulted in one of the most underwhelming celebratory finales in recent Mania memory.

On the other hand, at least we got to see Stephanie get speared and another hilariously over-the-top cornball Triple H entrance. But as a main event, this one was a really mediocre affair, as most fans seemed to expect. 6/10
