For the first time in a decade, Edge wrestled a WrestleMania match in front of a live crowd. Daniel Bryan put a second WrestleMania main event on his list of accomplishments. And after a one-year absence, Roman Reigns showed the wrestling world why he is WWE’s present and future.
In a night built around the main event, Reigns retained the Universal Championship in a match that exceeded the hype. The outcome was filled with perpetual uncertainty, adding real electricity to this bout. And the triple threat format lent itself well, providing opportunities for one-on-one showdowns pitting Edge against Bryan, Reigns against Edge (which included a double spear spot), and Bryan against Reigns.
