PLAY BY PLAY
Kenny King is the ROH World Television Champion, but is he just ROH’s Pawn?
Caprice Coleman told The K I N G just as much when he was a guest on Coleman’s Pulpit. Coleman even accused King used his daughter for ratings and cheap pops like “a pimp.” This offended Kenny, of course. Kenny gets it now, Coleman and his Pulpit, “it’s all bullshit”, like a false prophet. A King ranks higher than a Bishop, so he’ll put the title on the line and put Coleman in checkmate. Will the King keep his throne this close to Final Battle?
ROH World Television Championship: Kenny King VS Caprice Coleman!
There’s no need to wait for this major match, the K I N G faces a friend turned selfish enemy, can he make The Bishop #BendTheKnee and move on to Final Battle? But wait, The Bishop has back-up in the form of the Notorious Hitman, Shane Taylor! The Bishop pays Shane to be his Rook, will this affect The King keeping his throne?
This definitely improves Shane’s chances, since he’s already in the Final Battle Four Way Elimination Match. Silas Young is also on commentary for this match, as he is one of the participants in Final Battle’s ROH WTVC match.
Kenny wants to uphold the Code of Honor, Coleman refuses. The bell rings, fans chant for Kenny as they tie up. Kenny puts Coleman in a corner, then backs off for a clean break, Coleman lets Kenny “chatter”. The two circle again, tie up again, Kenny gets a headlock but Coleman reverses to a hammerlock then headlock. Kenny reverses back out but Coleman reverses again, Kenny spins but Coleman blocks the whip. Coleman pie-faces Kenny then mocks the fans, Kenny blasts him with shotgun knees! Coleman hits buckles and flounders, Kenny gives him an arm-drag. Kenny goes for a fireman’s carry, Coleman slips off to slip out of the ring, he needs a breather while we go to break.
We return, Kenny puts Coleman in a corner again, and gives a sharp chop. Coleman escapes to the apron and shoulders in to then yank Kenny right into a post! Kenny tumbles to the ground while Coleman trash talks, Coleman then cusses out a fan before whipping Kenny at the apron. Kenny spins around but Coleman kicks him, Coleman gives the apron a spin and hits flying headscissors! Coleman tells the referee to keep that ring count going before giving Kenny a dropkick against the barriers!
Coleman sits a moment, “I think I killed Kenny.” He stands up, drags Kenny up and into the ring, then covers, ONE. Kenny gets to a corner, Coleman gives him a chop and a corner to corner whip before shoving him back with a standing STO. The referee checks on Kenny while Coleman imitates #SaltBae, Coleman drags Kenny out for an elbow drop and cover, TWO. Coleman moves right into an armlock and chinbar, fans rally. Kenny feeds off the energy, drags himself with one arm, and gets the ropebreak. Coleman stomps away on Kenny, then stalks him to a corner for body shots. Coleman hoists Kenny up, climbs up to join him, jumps for the Super Steiner but crashes and burns on the top buckle as Kenny ducks to evade.
The referee checks on Coleman, Shane looks worried and upset, Kenny gets up and unloads jabs and body shots on Coleman. Kenny rallies on Coleman, whips for the big heel kick. Cover, TWO, but Kenny doesn’t lose focus. He brings Coleman up, Coleman kicks a couple times before running, but runs into Kenny’s trapped-leg T-Bone Suplex! With a bridge! TWO, Kenny is getting frustrated. He brings Coleman up, fireman’s carry but Coleman fights out again. Coleman gets the waistlock, Kenny throws back elbows, Coleman lets him spin around for the Northern Lights, roll through for another! And another for the Holy Trinity! TWO!
Coleman is shocked but the fans are applauding. Coleman then climbs up, Kenny stops him with a haymaker. Kenny climbs up now, Coleman resists, shoves Kenny but Kenny lands on his feet, Coleman hits Sky Cutter! TWO! Coleman is furious, but he won’t stop there. He drags Kenny up, the fans duel while Coleman attempts the gut wrench, but Kenny slips out and gets the fireman’s carry. Shane hops up onto the apron, Kenny knocks him down with a forearm, then he bucks Coleman off before using a slingshot plancha to topple Shane over! Fans fire up as Kenny gets back in the ring, Coleman rolls him up, with tights, TWO! Coleman keeps moving, but runs into a spinebuster! Kenny fireman’s carry, he hits the Royal Flush! Cover, Kenny wins and retains!
Winner: Kenny King, by pinfall; still ROH World Television Champion
The K I N G moves on to Final Battle, but Final Battle is coming to him as Punishment Martinez appears! Martinez gets right in the ring and aims at Kenny, but Kenny ducks the spinning roundhouse to give his own! Shane gets in the ring, Kenny lifts him up in the fireman’s carry! Shane is too much for Kenny, he slips out to then feed Kenny to Punishment’s triangle superman punch! Kenny is rocked, Shane rocks him more with a heavy right of his own.
Silas Young leaves commentary to head for the ring himself. The Last Real Man stands up to the two behemoths before him, to add stomps of his own. All three men stomp Kenny, but then they fight over who gets to do the most damage to Kenny! Coleman washes his hands of this as the three challengers brawl right into a commercial break. With the damage done and the challengers chomping at the bit, can the King hope to keep his throne after Final Battle?
The Addiction is here!
“Silence! Silence, you peons.” Christopher Daniels says “the last time the Addiction, those living legends of Ring of Honor, were on television,” they were blindsided! They were “cowardly” attacked by War Machine; this is false, The Addiction were the ones who attacked War Machine. Truth aside, Daniels continues by saying “those garbage human beings” tried to injure and retire The Addiction, but “inadvertently” injured a fan at ringside. Rowe was suspended 30 days, but that’s not enough! In this day and age, “scandal turns a talented man into a pariah.” Therefore, Daniels demands ROH fire both members of War Machine, immediately! Kazarian speaks now. “Don’t get us wrong, we don’t give a damn about the injured fan.” In fact, The Addiction would love to injure each one of the fans here today. Before Kaz can say more, Hanson appears and attacks Daniels!
Daniels falls, Kaz isn’t even aware of it until Hanson turns him around for a haymaker! Hanson boots Daniels down, then throws Kaz into barriers. He stalks Daniels into the ring, Daniels flounders to a corner but Hanson is upon him with a rain of heavy rights. Kaz retaliates with a chair to Hanson’s back! Kaz SMACKS Hanson again and again, keeping Hanson down on the mat. Fans boo and jeer, disapproving of this. The Addiction regroups and tapes Hanson to the ropes! Daniels picks up the mic, “Frankie! This guy’s had a beard for so long, I wonder what a little bit off the sides will look like.” Daniels has a box cutter!?
Daniels cuts off locks of Hanson’s “War Beard”, Kaz keeps Hanson subdued with stomps and punches. “Frankie, you’re a movie buff, right? Did you ever see Reservoir Dogs?” The Addiction plans to give Hanson the “Van Gogh” treatment! In other words, they want to cut his ear off!! Security rushes the ring to stop this, but Daniels and Kaz fight them off! Another security guard gets around to Hanson and cuts him free of the tape, Hanson goes after The Addiction again! The Addiction retreats, Hanson holds the ring and that steel chair. With Rowe set to be back by his side at Final Battle, can Hanson get proper revenge on Daniels & Kaz for threatening his well-being?
The ROH World Six Man Tag Champions speak on their coming defense.
The Young Bucks and Hangman Page prepare for “the biggest show of the year”, Final Battle. The challenging team consists of Flip Gordon, Dragon Lee and Titan, but “Where do you think you’re going?” The Bullet Club “welcomes” them to ROH, but will they underestimate their opponents and drop those titles to the new #FlipArmy?
The Briscoes come to the ring.
“Do you know who we are!?” Jay and Mark invaded The Dudley Boys’ training school to then vandalize it, and now they’re here in Lakeland to state that “we’re the guys that’s gon’ tell y’all the truth!” The “truth” is that Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer, “two guys that y’all consider legends, two guys that y’all consider heroes,” are just cowards! The Briscoes ask “What’s it gonna take” to get Bully and Tommy in the ring with them? They ruined Bully’s retirement, laid Tommy out in his own backyard, and even went to 3D Academy to trash the joint. And yet, still no answer to the challenge! Jay changes his statement. Bully and Tommy, “y’all ain’t cowards. Y’all worse than that. Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer, y’all some pussies!” The Briscoes pace, but here come Bully and Tommy!
The fans chant “E C Dub! E C Dub!” as the two make their way to the ring, but security stops this before it begins. Fans want them to “Let them fight!” The Briscoes want it, too! Bully and Tommy arm themselves, Bully trash talks the Briscoes, but Joe Koff appears to talk them down. The ECW originals argue with Koff, but Koff insists they leave. Fans chant “Fight! Fight!” The Briscoes encourage it, as does Tommy. Koff keeps insisting Bully leave for his own physical health, but Bully counters by asking how Koff “as a man” can allow The Briscoes to say what they’ve said without consequence? Jay Briscoe speaks again to point out something. “Who’d have thought we’d ever see the day when Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer take orders from a short old man?”
Koff gets into the ring now to get in the Briscoes’ faces. “That’s enough!” The Briscoes don’t make the matches, Koff does! The Briscoes have disrespected everyone in ROH, from Bully to Tommy to Koff himself! Most of all, The Briscoes disrespected the fans who once had their back. Listen up, Briscoes, and be careful what you wish for, because it’s gonna come true. This match is happening, at Final Battle! “It’s gonna be brutal, it’s gonna be extreme, and effing hardcore!” Koff drops the mic and leaves the ring, so Bully and Tommy rush The Briscoes! A brawl erupts while security scrambles to get in the ring! Fans chant “E C Dub!” once more as The Briscoes are backed up against the ropes! The brawl ebbs and flows while we go to break! Who will survive the coming hardcore tag team grudge match!?
Jay Lethal VS Matt Taven w/ The Kingdom!
The Kingdom has cried “conspiracy” ever since their Sassy Wild Horse returned to action, given they have yet to receive a rematch for the ROH World Six Man Tag Championships. Even so, the leader of the trio looks to get a singles victory over the Greatest First Generation Wrestler ahead of both men’s Final Battle matches. Lethal will face The Villain while Taven will face the Aerial Assassin, who will gain momentum before those big time matches? In fact, Marty Scurll is on commentary to watch his Final Battle foe very closely.
The Villain says that ever since coming to ROH, he has wanted to face the best. Scurll even acknowledges Lethal is one of the best to ever compete in ROH, but not this Lethal. Scurll wants “the old Jay Lethal”, the one that was ruthless enough to be both ROH World Heavyweight and Television Champion at the same time.
Lethal and Taven uphold the Code of Honor, but then Taven pushes Lethal’s head so Lethal shoves back! Taven shoves back, so Lethal chops him! The bell rings at the same time Taven slips out of the ring, Lethal pursues. Lethal rocks Taven with chops and haymakers, Taven fights back with haymakers of his own. Taven then bumps Lethal off the side of the apron and into barriers. He goes for another apron bump but Lethal blocks to then return the favor, Taven goes into and even over barriers! Lethal dumps Taven all the way over, so that he can turn him around for a chop! Lethal suplexes Taven up, over and onto the floor! The fans chant “Lethal! Lethal!” as Scurll takes credit for Lethal rediscovering his mean streak.
Things return to the ring, Lethal climbs up top and hits the double ax handle. Fans applaud but the Kingdom is worried. Lethal swipes at them, Taven uses the opening to turn things around on Lethal. Taven whips Lethal to the ropes, Lethal reverses, hip toss to cartwheel to dropkick! Cover, TWO, Scurll criticizes Lethal for pandering. The Kingdom taunts Lethal, fans chant for Lethal, Lethal chops Taven in a corner a couple times. Corner to corner whip, and a third chop! TWO, but Lethal is not frustrated. Lethal drags Taven around, works on the leg then goes for the Figure Four, Taven counters with a small package, TWO! Lethal clobbers Taven with a lariat, covers, TWO! The Kingdom talks trash while Lethal chops Taven again. Taven reverses the whip, Lethal kicks him away then clotheslines him out, then builds speed to DIVE!
The fans fire up as Lethal paces the ring. The Kingdom coaches Taven back into things but Lethal returns to put Taven in the ring. While Taven distracts the referee, Vinnie tries to trip up Lethal, only to be shoved away. O’Ryan comes over with his bat! Lethal kicks at O’Ryan, but that’s all the opening Taven needs for the triangle jump enziguri! Lethal tumbles down, Taven builds speed and wrecks Lethal with a wrecking ball dropkick! The Kingdom’s leader is in control while we go to break.
ROH returns, Taven brings Lethal into the ring to then suplex him up and over, TWO. Taven stalks Lethal, stands him up then whips him to ropes, only for Lethal to reverse again. Taven denies the back body drop to instead hit Moonlight Drive! Cover, TWO, The Kingdom is frustrated. O’Ryan argues with the referee while Taven gets going, Lionsault meets knees! Both Taven and Lethal are down, fans rally while the referee starts a ten count. Lethal feeds off the energy, he and Taven stand up and brawl with heavy haymakers.
They go back and forth, Lethal growing stronger with every hit. Lethal chops, punches, repeat, whip reversed, Lethal jumps but Taven ducks. Taven wags his finger “no no”, proud of himself that he outsmarted Lethal there. The Kingdom and Scurll applaud Taven while he stalks Lethal to the apron. Taven drags Lethal up but Lethal shoulders back in. Lethal slingshots for a sunset flip, TWO! Taven runs in, but into the Lethal Combination!
Fans applaud while The Kingdom panics, a rally begins as Lethal crawls over and brings Taven up. Lethal suplexes, Taven slips out, but Lethal blocks the kick to trip Taven and apply the Figure Four! Taven endures the legendary hold as fans “WOO~!” The Kingdom shouts for Taven to move, Taven gets to ropes for the break. The referee has Lethal let Taven free, Lethal holds on until 4. The Kingdom brandish their weapons while Lethal drags Taven to a corner. Lethal climbs up, Taven fights out, and rocks Lethal with a right hand. Taven climbs up now, clubbing Lethal a couple more times before trying a superplex. Lethal resists, then drops Taven with a Super Gordbuster! Lethal adjusts, aims and jumps, Hail to the King! Direct hit, to the cover, TWO!
Scurll says he wants a “closer look” at this match. The Villain, umbrella in hand, walks right down to the ring. Scurll slides his umbrella to Lethal? He wants Lethal to use the umbrella? Lethal takes the umbrella in hand, the referee tells him not to do it! Scurll wants Lethal to hit Taven, The Kingdom says not to. Lethal fights through the conflict and throws the umbrella back at Scurll, Taven capitalizes with a roll-up! Taven steals the win! Marty Scurll is shocked that Lethal lost like that! Scurll may be disappointed in Lethal’s dedication to the high road, but can Lethal still win this way against The Villain?
It is time for the ROH World Heavyweight Championship contract signing!
The American Nightmare and his lovely wife, Brandi, are already in the ring. The man with the most lucrative ROH contract ever shows off that wealth with his fur coat and champagne as he waits for his challenger, Dalton Castle, to enter the ring. The Peacock finally gets his hands on Cody at Final Battle in the biggest match of his career, this contract signing is to make that chance iron clad. Both men sit at the table as Ian Riccaboni presides over the meeting.
“The richest prize in professional wrestling” will be defended, Cody as the 23rd ROH WHC ever against The Peacock, Dalton Castle. Castle wishes to speak. “You look ridiculous”, Cody. Cody is given his chance to speak, but a bit of cheese first. “Dalton, these are wonderful, you have to try them.” Except Cody hordes literally all of them. And that’s all he has to say, the mic goes back to Ian. “With all due respect, Cody, a match of this magnitude” deserves more than that. Cody doesn’t appear to be feeling the “gravity” of the situation. Does Ian know who Cody is? He’s the ROH WHC! Better yet, Cody does have more to say. Cheers! To his wife, Brandi.
Ian gives Castle another chance to speak. While Cody and Brandi play lovey-dovey, Castle asks “What’re we doing here?” Thanks for the fancy meats and cheeses platter, but Castle vows to “break your heart.” Then Castle will visit his uncle, “who’s a real whiz with chemicals”, to cook up some strong adhesive so that Castle can glue together all those pieces of Cody’s broken heart, “and break it again!” All this will happen the moment Castle takes away that ROH WHC. When Cody decided to come to ROH, Castle honestly got excited. Castle wanted and “tried so hard” to like Cody. When Castle first saw Cody, he thought “There’s a guy who loves wrestling as much as I do! There’s the guy that’s gonna come and bring a lot of eyes and help grow the place that I love the most.”
However, Cody’s “skinny, stupid ass came” to ROH, and Castle saw “a boy that isn’t worthy of being ROH World Champion.” Castle sees Cody as overdressed, overpaid, and overrated! Fans agree with that sentiment! Cody doesn’t, and is upset by that to the point he stands up and takes off that fur coat. He demands Castle sign, Castle signs. Cody takes his other jacket off, signs the contract himself, and it is “signed, sealed and delivered.” Castle snatches Cody’s drink, chugs it, fans are red hot for The Peacock. Cody and Castle glare into each other’s eyes as Cody raises that belt high, who will be the owner of that belt after Final Battle?
My Thoughts:
Now this is how you do a go-home! There were only two matches, but they were great matches, and everything else that happened was incredibly relevant to Final Battle. Opening with the ROH WTVC match was a bold move, but it worked as it plugged all parts of the ROH WTVC story in one segment. Coleman uses Shane’s drive to his own advantage, even though it did not work out the way he’d hoped. Kenny still gets beat up, to Coleman’s liking, and enters his title defense as the underdog given the three tough and talented challengers set before him. Kenny winning a Four Way Elimination match would go a long way to building him up as a star while also sticking it to Coleman for everything he said during The Pulpit.
The promo segments in the middle were all brilliantly done. The Addiction ups the Heel Heat in a way that’s a bit extreme, but it worked to get fans to hate them more. I’m confused, though. What happened to War Machine being brutal Tweeners? They are the Faces in this one, will they immediately turn Heel again right after this feud? I assume they’ll win, of course, so that just seems odd to me.
The main event match was also great, because of the added story element between Lethal and Scurll. Lethal could’ve smacked Taven, but that would mean he’d lose the match and Scurll wins the war for Lethal’s morality. Lethal could’ve also ignored Scurll outright and won clean. Instead, he got stuck deciding whether to be Heel or Face and lost, which was likely Scurll’s plan all along. Lethal-Scurll will surely have a similar spot before the end, so if Lethal lets himself be distracted or gives in, Scurll still wins. The contract signing was fun, Cody’s arrogance is at an all-time high and I sense it will cost Cody in the end. The fans at Final Battle will mark out if Castle wins, and I’m still hoping The Boys make a triumphant return to save Castle from the Bullet Club for an even stronger mark-out moment.
My Score: 8.5/10

ESPN Hour – Brock Lesnar w/ Paul Heyman VS Oba Femi!
The Advocate put out the WrestleMania Open Challenge on behalf of The Beast, and while Seth Rollins got Lesnar’s attention, it was The Ruler who answered the call! These two have fought in and out of the ring, but now they fight in a match! Will Lesnar prove he is The Conqueror? Or will Oba prove he is The One?
Speaking of The Wise Man, he interrupts Alicia Taylor’s introductions so he can give his usual introduction, “Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman. Tonight, the Beast, The Conqueror, the REAL Ruler of WrestleMania, BRRROCK, LESNARRR~!” Alicia finishes by giving Oba his introductions, and while no official title is on the line, it is time to see who is the true alpha male of our species!
The bell rings and the fans are thunderous already! Oba and Lesnar tie up, are in a deadlock, but Oba’s height is just enough to give him leverage! Oba powers Lesnar back, but Lesnar pushes him back. The two tie up again, Lesnar powers Oba back now, but Oba shoves Lesnar back! But then Lesnar RAMS Oba into the corner again and again! But Oba just shakes it off! And he SHOVES Lesnar down!

Winner: Oba Femi, by pinfall
Here is your winner, and the NEW~ alpha male of WWE, Oba Femi! Vegas cheers “O~BA!” as he struts away, but Lesnar is still down! Perhaps he’s still coming to terms with reality. Oba tips his proverbial cap to Lesnar, but what is next for THE Next Big Thing? As for Lesnar, he finally sits up, and fans shift to a chant of, “Thank You, Lesnar!” But then even the fans are shocked as Lesnar starts taking off the gloves, and untying the laces on his boots! Lesnar is emotional as a moment perhaps even he never thought was coming might finally be here. Off comes one boot, then the other, and fans again chant, “Thank You, Brock!”
Lesnar leaves his gloves and boots in the center, waves to the fans, and the fans all cheer. Heyman steps into the ring, still stunned. But in the end, he hugs his client and friend. Heyman raises Lesnar’s hand and the fans cheer again. Lesnar waves again, even standing on the corner to take a bow. Then he goes to center to take an even deeper bow, before stepping out of the ring and up the ramp. If this is truly the last time Lesnar is in a WWE ring or on a WWE screen, then indeed, #ThankYouBrockLesnar.

It’s the WrestleMania Countdown Show!
Join Joe Tessitore, Wade Barrett, Corey Graves & Big E on discussing, analyzing, and predicting the action we’re about to see Sin City!
What WrestleMania Moment is your favorite?
42 years of history and spectacle, it’s hard to choose just one. Hulk Hogan VS Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan VS The Rock, Eddie Guerrero winning the WWE Championship, the entire Undertaker’s undefeated streak. But it doesn’t really matter which moment is your favorite or if they’re all your favorite, because the Grandest Stage of Them All means so much to all of us. The magic, the memories, the legacy, it’s WrestleMania!
The Las Vegas Mass Choir sings God Bless America.
WrestleMania: The Ultimate Stage.
Lin-Manuel Miranda says, “It’s something you can’t really explain, that feeling when the lights come on. The crowd roars, and you realize there’s no bigger stage than this. No brighter lights, no higher stakes, no louder crowd, and no second takes. It happens once, and it’s forever. Cuz memories are made in this ring, and we, you and me, the fans, we get to be there for moments we’ll never forget. We were there when the Irresistible Force met the Immovable Object. We were there when it seemed impossible, until it happened. When legends took their final bows. When Seth shocked the world. When Cody finished his story and made his dad proud.
“And years from now, decades from now, our kids will tell their kids that we were alive and we were there when Punk fought Roman for the title. When La Primera confronted La Guerita. When the Voices tried to squash the Nightmare. When Jade and Rhea stood face to face. When Oba stepped onto this stage, the biggest stage of them all, for the very first time. There’s no way to know exactly what drama lies ahead, but we know we’re here for the pops and the surprises, the memories that will last a lifetime. We are here, we are alive, no second takes. Lights up, the curtain’s about to rise. Welcome to WrestleMania!”
JOHN CENA is here!
Las Vegas fires up for The GOAT as he walks out on stage in his nicest suit. Cena says he knows, don’t worry, they’re not gonna run. Cena walks down the ramp, waves to the fans, and goes to the ring. The fans chant his name while he gets the mic, and Cena is already a bit emotional. “Wow, I didn’t expect that. Thank you so much. Sorry, uh, long time fan, long time performer, first time host, how am I doing so far? It’s undeniable that this year’s Road to WrestleMania has been chaos. It has been unpredictable. And from every side, from both in here, hell, back there, and out here, it has been very, very vocal.
“One could say it’s… Michael Cole, is it polarizing? Yes, polarizing. Now I see why I got the hosting gig. This is the moment I love the most. Especially on the Road to WrestleMania. We’re all in here for the same reason: Because we know the time to talk is up. The time to deliver is NOW! And we are all here with one thing on our minds: Who tonight will step up and deliver?” The fans cheer for that! Cena says it is such a great honor, ladies and gentlemen, and everyone watching around the world, WELCOME TO WRESTLEMANIA! The pyro goes off as the fans cheer, and it’s about to begin!

Undisputed WWE Championship: Cody Rhodes VS Randy Orton w/ Pat McAfee!
The American Nightmare didn’t realize what he was doing telling The Viper he could be “the best” version of himself for this match. The Apex Predator unleashed that 2009 Randy Orton, and maybe even a little more, and apparently all with Pat coaching him up. But will this form of Randy Orton earn that 15th world championship? Or will Cody make sure Randy (and Pat) can’t “save” the WWE?
Pat McAfee makes his entrance first so he can flip off fans and tell them off, just as they do to him. Then Orton makes his entrance, with fans still singing along to Voices. Pat even joins Orton in doing the iconic pose from the corners. The tron then changes things up from the Mad Max wasteland to a Marvel’s Ironman style vault, or perhaps even Batman’s Bat Cave. The many phases of Cody’s career, from being just a rookie in green, to being the “Dashing” Cody Rhodes, to even Stardust, and now, the American Nightmare. And from below rises IRON CODY! “Wrestling has more than one royal family.”
The fans cheer and sing along with Kingdom as Cody unzips the golden jacket to show off the title, “WHOA~ OH~!” The ramp is so long, we get the second “WHOA~ OH~” and pyro before Cody’s even truly ringside. Cody still high-fives the young fans up front, and of course holds up his daughter, before going to the ring. The introductions are made, with Pat interrupting. “Listen up, you disgusting pigs! Make some noise for the man who stands at 6’5″, 275 pounds! A depiction of perfection in professional wrestling! When he walks outta here tonight, he’s gonna show each and every one of you fat ass bums what greatness looks like as he becomes a FIFTEEN TIME WORLD CHAMPION~!”
The fans are torn as Pat says this is the man who saves the business tonight, RRRRANDY… ORRRRTOOON~! The fans do still cheer, then Alicia Taylor gives Cody his intro. The belt is raised, and if wrestling has more than one royal family, then we’re about to see who reigns supreme!
But Pat SUCKER PUNCHES Cody! The fans boo and the ref reprimands as Orton stomps away on Cody! This isn’t a match yet, either! Orton stands Cody up, but Cody BOOTS Pat away! Then he POSTS Orton! Cody catches Pat for a CROSS RHODES! The fans cheer that, too! Cody kicks Pat out of the ring, goes out after him, and he clears off the desk! They just put everything back in place! Cody puts Pat on the desk, HAMMERS away, and JELLY ROLL is here! Even Jelly approves of this! Jelly goes up onto the desk, and he gives Pat a MACHO ELBOW down through the table!! The fans go nuts as Jelly tells Cody to go do this 1v1!
Cody returns to the ring, but where is Orton? Orton realizes what just happened to Pat, and producers hurry out here, leading the way for the stretcher. The fans cheer and sing, “Hey hey hey, goodbye~!” Pat is put on the stretcher and is wheeled up the ram. Pat gives a thumbs up, then a middle finger. Orton sighs and shakes his head, then storms his way into the ring. The bell finally rings and the fans cheer. Cody and Orton stare down while the fans duel. They run up, tie up, and go around. They go along the ropes, around in corners, and back to center. They break, circle again, and tie up again. Orton headlocks but Cody endures the grind.
Cody powers up, out, but Orton RUNS him over! The fans are torn but Orton waits on Cody. Cody stands, he and Orton reset, and they tie up again. Cody wrenches to a wristlock, but Orton fights the top wristlock. Cody brings Orton down to a knee, but Orton fights up. Cody wrenches, hammerlocks, headlocks, but Orton powers up and out. Orton drops down, then he RUNS Cody over again! Orton stands Cody up to UPPERCUT, then has him on the ropes. Orton wrenches, wristlocks, and he bumps Cody off buckles. Orton UPPERCUTS Cody, Cody sputters and goes to another corner, but Orton whips corner to corner.
Cody goes up and over, but Orton is ready! Cody ducks the lariat, kicks and RHODES UPPERCUTS! Orton comes back, Cody dodges, and Cody SNAP POWERSLAMS! The fans are torn as Cody uses the move taught to him by Orton. Orton slowly rises, Cody springboards, but Orton catches him to the BACK2BACKBREAKER! Orton hobbles from that move, was that double-edged given his past back injury? Orton pokes Cody in the eyes to slow him down, then snapmares for a chinlock. The fans rally as Cody endures, fights up, and powers up to hit a BIG back suplex! Orton writhes and bails out, very angry right about now.
Orton walks off the pain but Cody storms after him. But Orton kicks low! Orton puts Cody in the ring, does his best to walk off the back pain, but Cody KICKS Orton in the ropes!

Cody lands on his Stardust, but Orton takes a moment before climbing up. Orton throws hands, Cody fires back, and the fans rally as the shots go back and forth. Orton ROCKS Cody, goes up top, and he brings Cody up to the very top! SUPER DUPER PLEX! The fans fire up while both men are down! Orton grits his teeth, that was certainly a double-edged choice there. Orton manages to rise up, and he LARIATS, LARIATS, dodges, then SNAP POWERSLAMS!
The fans fire up as Orton seems to be feeling a bit better, and he puts Cody through the ropes. DRAPING DDT! Well again, double-edged, but Orton just fights through the pain. Orton hears the voices as he pounds the mat, and he waits on Cody! R K- NO, Cody shoves free, then dodges Orton to send him outside! Cody builds speed to DIVE into a forearm!

Night one didn’t end how Orton wanted, but will he make sure this story with Cody meets a violent end?
My Thoughts:
A very good first night for WrestleMania 42, a lot of fun, and a lot better than the build was giving us. Though, given they televised the first hour and have only further commercialized Mania, there were also a lot of ads. And anyone on ESPN Unlimited, chances are you dealt with weird streaming problems where ad breaks made the thing skip back almost entire segments. As far as I could tell from the live crowd, they all enjoyed a large part of the show, except for how we ended on Orton standing tall but not champion. I’m a little surprised by that, given Pat being such a big part of the story. Jelly obliterating Pat and the desk was great, though.
But perhaps there’s more to this given Cody was using Heel tactics to counter Heel Orton, and how Orton turned on Pat already. Will “the powers that be” behind Pat now want to punish Orton? Is Cody going to actually turn Heel? Cody at least proved to Stephanie McMahon that Cody could do what he has to in order to beat “this Randy Orton.” Orton also ended up with kayfabe back problems outta nowhere, and I can’t be sure if that was supposed to protect Orton in the loss or what. Orton and Cody getting bloody was a nice touch, though. Even if you don’t factor in Pat, a lot of the problem is WWE didn’t factor in how fans would react to Orton doing these “2009 Orton” things to Cody, because the fans loved it from the moment Orton turned on Cody at the contract signing.
The televised hour was really good to get the ball rolling. Not sure The Vision needed a 9-way split screen… I figured Knight & Usos would win the Six Man Tag, but that wasn’t how I expected it. I did appreciate them turning the “misunderstanding causing dysfunction” around on Theory & Logan. Kudos to Speed hitting the SUPER frog splash, Speed might have himself a future in WWE. Fatu VS Drew was a very good Unsanctioned match, but obviously they weren’t going to go as far as anything AEW would do/has done. Maybe they should’ve bled here, too? Either way, great win for Fatu, but I’m not sure what’s next. Will Drew demand a rematch? Or will we finally learn who knocked Fatu’s teeth out last year?
Very good match from Rollins VS Gunther, on its way to great, though ironically that was partially because of the brawling they did before the match. Bron Breakker showing up was only a little surprising, as it was bound to happen, I’m just not sure it needed to happen to affect Rollins VS Gunther. It does protect Rollins in losing to Gunther, but did he need it? Gunther’s Gunther, Rollins can lose to him fair and square, and then Bron spears Rollins inside-out outta nowhere. Rollins VS Bron is now set, and I’m pretty sure Gunther cashes in that favor with Heyman to get his fight with Lesnar.
Very wonderful news from Bianca Belair, it turns out her hand wasn’t why she wasn’t back in the ring yet. John Cena did a good job “hosting” the show, but I don’t think WWE knows what that means anymore. Cena should’ve gotten to join commentary for the main event at least, not just give us the attendance numbers. And even then, just under 51K is not what I expected, but considering they had 60K last year… Well, WWE never acknowledges failings, so guess they’ll just move on like it’s all good.
Honestly, I think the overall best stuff was in the Women’s Division tonight. Well, I’m still not going to be a fan of Heels needing help to win when they can just cheat on their own, but of course Roxie & Raquel helped Liv out, and that gave Judgment Day their WrestleMania moment together. I feel like Vaquer will/should demand her rematch and we get that for Backlash, but in a match that actually stops Judgment Day from interfering. Great Intercontinental Championship match, though it ended up more about Becky’s beef with Jessica Karr than with AJ Lee. But speaking of Heels cheating on their own, Becky does just that, and boom, she’s champ again. I think that makes her and AJ tied in 1v1, so there’s gotta be a tiebreaker at some point.
And how great to see the Women’s Tag title match bring back Paige. A shame for Nikki and her foot but she at least got to be part of the win. Great ring gear for everyone, too, such as Bliss being a moth to pay tribute to Bray and The Irresistible Forces being Demolition. Can’t wait to see what’s next for Paige & The Bella Twins, but I feel like Paige won’t be on the same page as The Bellas for long if Nikki recovers completely and wants to be champion with Brie. But Paige back in the WWE is great in itself, can’t wait to see where she goes from here.
My Score: 8.8/10
