WWE WrestleMania 36 rolls on with Daniel Bryan challenging Sami Zayn for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. WWE Intercontinental Championship: Sami Zayn (c) vs. Daniel Bryan Sami runs from Bryan immediately, fleeing from the ring and using every last bit of the ten count to avoid Bryan. Bryan gets fed up with this on the second try and pursues him, Cesaro and Shinsuke Nakamura keep getting in the way. Sami rolls into the ring and just waits for Bryan to follow him, dancing cockily. Bryan slides into the ring and advances, Sami rolls out of the ring, Bryan nearly gets him…

WWE WrestleMania 36 continues. Now we have the one match of the weekend that I didn’t end up making a preview on, I had a lot to do and I just missed on this one… wouldn’t you know it, it’s on Night 1. Ah well… Becky Lynch defends her Raw Women’s title against Shayna Baszler. WWE Raw Women’s Championship: Becky Lynch (c) vs. Shayna Baszler Exchange of open hand strikes, very loud. Shayna with a leg kick makes Becky back off, Kirifuda Clutch attempted, Becky slips out of the ring. Shayna follows, big leg kick, heavy forearm to the back,…

WrestleMania 36 continues as we move on to our second match of the night. King Corbin says the King has arrived at WrestleMania but Elias is nowhere to be found. Shows us why, and they replay the segment where Corbin sent Elias off the balcony. Corbin says that felt good and what feels better is getting his second Mania win in a row. Says Elias can’t be here so they should raise his hand in victory, as he wins by forfeit. But a guitar strum beckons Elias out to the stage. He has such tiny bandaging that I’m not sure…

WrestleMania 36 begins. Our first match will see Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross challenge the Kabuki Warriors. Stephanie McMahon introducing us to the show and parlaying to a compilation of the many guest stars who have formerly opened the show with a performance of America the Beautiful. Then comes the intro which is still very much buccaneer themed in spite of the move to the Performance Center. But then someone cuts it off, telling them not to start at the end. Demands they back up. Now the trailer begins again. And is forced to reset again. They then basically give…

WWE WrestleMania 36 is going down tonight! You can see the results of the show and links to recaps below. Kickoff Show: Drew Gulak took on Cesaro in the first match of the weekend.

WrestleMania 36 is soon at hand. I think we’re done with the long intros. Let’s actually not waste any time with this preview. WWE Championship: Brock Lesnar © vs. Drew McIntyre It’s hard to quantify what Drew McIntyre is right now. He’s an underdog and yet, everyone has expected him to be in this exact spot since his return to WWE back in 2017. In fact, he was expected to be in this spot by, at the very least, the WWE brass about twelve years ago. His original run certainly did not pan out as it was intended. He petered…

WrestleMania 36 is soon at hand. I think we’re done with the long intros. Let’s actually not waste any time with this preview. Last Man Standing: Edge vs. Randy Orton When Edge made his return at the 2020 Royal Rumble event, it was a magical moment in an era where those are few and far between in WWE. Sure there were rumors abound that Edge was either cleared or on his way to it. And certainly when I saw him spear the ever-loving crap out of Elias that one time during a special appearance, I took note of the fact…

Well. Against all odds, we’re here now… we made it to the end of the week. And for better or worse, WWE’s gonna go through with this show no matter what anyone thinks. WrestleMania 36 is now upon us. It’s a strange and surreal night and it’s to be christened with this strange and surreal battle, pitting John Cena against the Fiend in a Firefly Funhouse match.  I’ve only been working as a wrestling columnist/recapper for less than a year. In other words, the first WrestleMania I’ve ever covered is… this one. I didn’t really imagine it’d be like this,…

In spite of everything, we’re still here. Ladies and gentlemen we have made it to the end of the week. And for better or worse, WWE’s gonna go through with all of this. No matter how much the outside circumstances have altered even the biggest matches on the show, still they’re plowing through on putting on something called WrestleMania 36. That spirit couldn’t be clearer than with the WWE Universal Championship match which sees Bill Goldberg defend the title against Braun Strowman. Braun is a last-minute replacement for Roman Reigns. This one really stands alone as far as oddities go.…

In spite of it all, we’re still here. We’ve made it to the end of this week. And for better or worse, WWE’s gonna go through with all of this. Regardless of what anyone might think, WrestleMania 36 is upon us. WWE certainly likes making history, as the NXT Women’s Championship match between Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair proves. But history was inevitable this time around, as an unprecedented circumstance will see WrestleMania take place over the course of two nights. And there won’t be a single fan in attendance for either half of the show. It’s funny, it was…
