Well, the first night of this year’s two-day Showcase of the Immortals is now in the history books, and boy is WrestleMania 37 off to a great start.

Starting things off with a bang, Drew McIntyre got his shot at the WWE Championship held by Bobby Lashley, with the All Mighty picking up the impressive W here.

While the Scottish Warrior ultimately came up short, it was Natalya and Tamina who emerged victorious in the tag team turmoil match, earning themselves a match against WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax tonight.

Elsewhere, Cesaro picked up a landmark win against Seth Rollins in an absolute barn-burner of a bout, and that was followed up by AJ Styles and Omos toppling The New Day to become the Raw Tag Team Champions.

Much like big Omos wowed in his WWE debut, Grammy Award winner Bad Bunny similarly stunned in his in-ring debut, as Bunny and Damian Priest overcame The Miz and John Morrison – with Braun Strowman dominating Shane McMahon in a Steel Cage sandwiched between these two matches.
