WWE WrestleMania 35 (4/7/2019) Play By Play Coverage

Women’s Tag Team Championship: Sasha Banks & Bayley vs. Beth Phoenix & Natalya vs. Nia Jax & Tamina Snuka vs. The IIconics (Peyton Royce & Billie Kay)

Paige is at the announce table and Bret Hart makes a quick appearance for Natalya & Beth Phoenix. Natalya & Phoenix pay homage using the heart attack. Nia & Tamina start cleaning house. Bayley with the top rope elbow on Beth and Sasha with the top rope frog splash. Beth with a top rope glam slam on Bayley, but Billie makes a blind tag and gets the pin.

Winners: The IIconics (Peyton Royce & Billie Kay) to win the Women’s Tag Team Championships

WWE Championship: Daniel Bryan vs. Kofi Kingston

This one might be the most wanted men’s match on the card, as fans have bought into KofiMania for the past couple months. It’s interesting to see WWE recycle the “B+ player” angle that they used for Daniel Bryan…for someone challenging Daniel Bryan. Xavier Woods & Big take out Rowan. Kofi connects with trouble in paradise to win his first WWE Championship after 11 years in WWE.

Winner: Kofi Kingston to become new WWE Champion

Xavier Woods and Kofi Kinston are emotional. Woods and Big E present Kofi with the WWE Championship, which is no longer eco friendly. The crowd is going nuts and Kofi’s kids are in ring celebrating. Woods and Big E open the box they brought from the back. It’s a new New Day shirt to represent the WWE Championship. Now that’s a WrestleMania moment.

United States Championship Match: Rey Mysterio Versus Samoa Joe

In a blink-and-you-missed it match, Joe squashed Mysterio in under 2 minutes. Curious if Rey is still not close to 100 percent. Also, after all the talk of Rey’s son to be at ringside, we saw no Dominic.

Winner, and still United States Champion, Samoa Joe

Drew McIntyre Versus Roman Reigns

Even though we’ve seen Roman work since his return, this is his first official singles match in about six months. WWE really playing up an underdog angle for The Big Dog against the Scottish Psychopath.

Reigns takes a good bit of offense from McIntyre, but in the end. Roman is able to hit his spear and finish the match with a win.

Winner: Roman Reigns

And now, Elias will perform a song. We get some strange taped segments of Elias playing the drums and piano. Now we see Elias in the center of the ring. We see a clip of Babe Ruth calling his home run from almost a 100 years ago. Elias looks complexed. John Cena heads to the ring using his thuganomics. gimmick; complete with the attire.
