WWE Wrestlemania 2024 Night time 1 Outcomes And Overview: The Rock And Roman Reigns Stand Tall

This may be the most important tag staff match in Wrestlemania history–and that is saying rather a lot. Oh, and by the best way, the official attendance determine for tonight was 72,543 individuals promoting out the Linc.

Initially, let’s discuss Seth’s gear. It was completely excellent, full with an extended practice. No different man in WWE has fashion that wherever close to rivals Rollins and tonight he is taken it to a different degree. What’s extra, this was simply night time one. Seth has one other match, and theoretically one other outfit, tomorrow.

I used to be going to complain about The Rock’s entrance being a half-hour lengthy, however the Brahma Bull ring of fireside is simply too cool to be mad about. The title belt nonetheless is not sensible, no matter who gave it to him. But when this retains him from combating for an precise championship, I am wonderful with it. Although the announcers had been speaking about his 12-week coaching camp for this match. If he is the “Ultimate Boss,” should not he at all times be prepared? Shang Tsung did not get a 12-week coaching camp.

It is stunning to suppose that that is technically Rollins’ first Wrestlemania fundamental occasion. Certain, he cashed in Cash within the Financial institution at Wrestlemania, however that wasn’t his billed match.

There was a little bit of poetry having Seth and Roman begin issues out. They’ve crossed paths within the Wrestlemania fundamental occasion and, after all, they’ve their shared historical past in The Protect. I would love a long-term feud between a babyface Rollins and a heel Reigns. I hope we get that ultimately. Their small feud earlier in Roman’s reign simply wasn’t sufficient for me.

The unusual factor about The Rock is he works like extra of a giant man now as a result of, nicely, he is a really huge man. It is a wholly totally different fashion of wrestling than when he was on the energetic roster. It is unusual to see him tossing individuals like Seth Rollins round, quite than bumping like a maniac all around the ring. Actually, may you think about this Rock taking the “Stone Chilly” Stunner the best way he used to?

The press room popped loud when The Rock advised the referee if he counted anybody out, he was fired. He is on the board of administrators, so he can definitely try this. What a dastardly heel factor to do. And it made the lengthy stretch of combating exterior of the ring make sense. Actually, it is the little issues that make a match work.

Having Rock and Reigns meticulously tear aside the leg of Seth Rollins all through the match was sort of an excellent alternative, actually. It retains Cody seething within the nook, makes Rollins sympathetic, and provides a model new dimension to his title protection on night time two.

There have been a few pints mid-match the place it sounded, no less than within the press field, like the gang obtained quiet. There are a few doable causes for that. They may very well be drained. Or they may very well be freezing. It is at the moment 47 levels Fahrenheit.

All advised, this was a hell of a fundamental occasion. with a wonderfully telegraphed sequence near the top. Roman spearing Rock, the stereo pedigrees, Rollins’ huge dive off the highest rope onto Roman, it was all unbelievable and it made it look like Cody and Seth may someway overcome the percentages. And that Rock Backside from Cody by the desk was a factor of absolute magnificence and instantly adopted by Roman spearing Seth by the barricade.

The result of the match, with Rock and Roman successful, is no surprise. And, actually, understanding the doubtless final result did not spoil this match in any respect. And makes tomorrow extra fascinating.

Winners: Roman Reigns and The Rock by way of pinfall.

Ranking: 8.5/10
