Goodnight/morning!
That’s me done for now, but lots more to come on this blog so don’t go anywhere! Thanks for following my updates!Go on Baron
Here’s one thing I lovedJR's view
JR saw the segment with The Rock, John Cena and the Wyatts differently to me. He makes the point that now we’re talking about them and now they have an issue with major stars.
Good booking @WWE to highlight @TheRock & @JohnCena in surprise
scuffle with Wyatt Family. No it doesn't 'hurt' the Wyatt's.

A mixed bag?
The majority seem to think so
So, what's the verdict on #WrestleMania 32? Was it a good show? Yes? No? Or a mixed bag? https://t.co/oEgbGyOTqR

Mo Chatra speaks the truth
Not for the first time:
Wide range of reactions to the show. Some really loved it and others
think it's the worst 'Mania ever. I have it somewhere in between.

Key event
Roman Reigns is the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion!
Triple H’s sledgehammer attack is cut off by a Superman punch, and then another. Boos ring out. Triple H tries to hit him with the sledgehammer, but misses as Reigns ducks, and then Roman spears him. Pinfall, one, two, three! We have a new WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Roman Reigns.Sledgehammer
Superman punch. Is this the start of Reigns’ route to victory? Triple H manages to reply with a big knee. Steph is still down outside by the apron. But she hands him the sledgehammer!

Pedigree
An angered Triple H hits Reigns with the Pedigree! But it’s only two and a half! Business is picking upSpear on Stephanie!
Reigns signalled for a spear, but Triple H kicked him. Then when HHH went for a Pedigree, Reigns threw him over the top rope. Stephanie tends to her husband as ‘ole’ chants and a Mexican wave goes around the arena. Not a good sign. Roman spears HHH. Stephanie yanks the referee out of the ring and saves the title. The crowd cheer. Now she is in the ring. Slating the ref. Oh my God Reigns spears Stephanie!
OH MY GOD! @StephMcMahon just got a SPEAR from @WWERomanReigns!!! #WrestleMania #WWEChampionship https://t.co/IRJuDxocV9

"Rip his arm off!"
Triple H goes for a cross armbreaker. “Rip his arm off” shouts Stephanie. But Reigns breaks the hold in the same way as before. Both men are down.Armbar
After Steph had a moan at the ref, in her evil ringmaster gear (I know, I’m obsessed) HHH and Reigns just about made it back to the ring. Her husband counters a Superman punch with an armbar but Reigns will not tap. It looks like he’s ready to do that spot where he summons the strength to lift his opponent up and slam them down. Which he does, for a two-count.
This is a FIGHT! Only one can emerge champion... #WrestleMania #WWEChampionship @WWERomanReigns @TripleH https://t.co/3S3xwUlH5n

Spear through barricade
Well I’ve been live-blogging for nearly eight hours. And the action is still going strong, even if my eyes have gone square. Triple H sends Roman Reigns flying across an announce table. Then Reigns spears him through the barricade! That woke me up.

The Cerebral Assassin
Triple H is targeting Reigns’ reconstructed face. Roman fights back and drives Trip’s head into the announce table. But his renaissance is short-lived. Reigns clambers up onto the apron, head between the ropes. Triple H is picking him apart and leaps off the top turnbuckle driving a knee into the back of his head. Now he drops him on his gut on the ropes and goes for the same knee again, but misses as Roman punches him."WITH AUTHORITY"
Stephanie is on the ring apron, distracting the ref (and to be fair to him, she is pretty distracting) while HHH hits Roman with a low blow. Big cheers. Then he nails a couple of atomic drops. Reigns briefly rallies, but HHH hits a spinebuster “WITH AUTHORITY” Michael Cole tell us. Like what you did there Cole. Good pun.Drive-By
Reigns starts to fight back with a series of punches and the boos grow louder and louder. Then he takes HHH down with a flying clothesline. Triple H staggers and falls. Reigns hit his Drive-By. Steph looks concerned.

The 14-time world championWork, rest and play
Here we go! As expected Roman Reigns’s every move is booed from the start and loud cheers ring out as HHH sends him flying over the top rope. Roman sucks chants begin. In other news, I’m eating a Mars Bar to give myself a sugar boost. Other chocolates are available.BOOO...
The boos begin before Roman Reigns’ music even hits. And then it does hit and they are deafening. Roman does his Superman punch into the floor, which sets off fireworks all around him and then all around the stadium, which is pretty cool. Stephanie looks at him with utter disgust. Much like most of the crowd.
The fight is about to be ON... #WrestleMania #WWEChampionship @WWERomanReigns @TripleH https://t.co/auSlFBFXTO

Evil Lynn and the King of Kings
Stephanie McMahon standing above a throne, wearing what can only be described as kinky dominatrix gear, tells everyone off and reminds them who is in charge. She looks a bit like Evil Lynn from He-Man The Movie. Which is a good thing. Triple H strides out like the absolute man and the two of them gloat.Main event time...
It’s time for Triple H versus Roman Reigns for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. What sort of bonkers entrance will Triple H have this year?

Magnificent moonsault
On a cheerier note, here’s one of the moments of the night, Charlotte’s magnificent moonsault.

Key event
The Rock and John Cena destroy the Wyatts.
Rock Bottom to Braun Strowman. Five Knuckle Shuffle to Rowan. Attitude Adjustment to Rowan. Bray in. He goes for Sister Abigail on Cena but is pushed away. Spinebuster from The Rock, then a People’s Elbow on Wyatt. He rolls out, humiliated. Will Cena turn on The Rock? No. The Rock welcomes him back, they pose, and they leave, having destroyed The Wyatts. Seems like the live crowd enjoyed it. I hated it to be honest. But what do I know!
Arrive. Make #WrestleMania moments. Leave. @JohnCena @TheRock https://t.co/W9fNyQuUt1

John Cena returns to help The Rock
All three Wyatts get set to teach The Rock a lesson. Then John Cena appears! And he’s ready to fight.

The Rock beats Erick Rowan in six seconds
Rock wins with a Rock Bottom. In six seconds. That’s the first Wyatt buried. Will there be another?

Key event
The Rock versus... Erick Rowan?
The Rock is doing his usual spiel, mocking Erick Rowan “clearly you’re parents are related” and saying Braun Strowman is “looking like he’s been breast fed since he was 26-years-old”. Now he’s putting Bray over, saying “you’ve got it all”. Praises his look, charisma, ring ability, but saying he squanders it. Now he’s mocking him as expected and challenges him to a match! Wow. He’s all set to go! But Rock and Rowan? Why? Give us Rock versus Bray.Come on...
Please let the Wyatts give him an absolute beating. Make Bray a star. Don’t have the part-timer annihilate them. “This is my moment” says Bray. If only it were true...
What does The #WyattFamily want with @TheRock?! #WrestleMania @WWEBrayWyatt @ERICKROWAN @BraunStrowman https://t.co/SqbevUShPc
