Cena was looking to silence the young upstart, but Theory was willing to do whatever it took to defend his title. That included resorting to biting Cena’s ear in a move that resembled Mike Tyson biting Evander Holyfield.

Chad Gable’s feat of strength

The Fatal 4 Way tag team match between The Viking Raiders, The Street Profits, Alpha Academy and Braun Strowman and Ricochet was full of crazy moments. Every superstar was involved in moves that you have to see to believe.

One of the craziest spots, though, was when Chad Gable performed a German Suplex on Strowman. Strowman weighs over 300 pounds and is called the Monster Among Men for a reason. That didn’t stop the much smaller Gable from shocking everyone with his show of strength.

KSI gets Frog Splashed

KSI made a surprise appearance at WrestleMania as he came to the aid of his friend and business partner, Logan Paul.

Unfortunately for KSI, his interference cost him dearly. While attempting to record Paul Frog Splashing Seth Rollins on the commentary table, KSI was pulled onto the table instead and suffered the consequences.

Trish rolls back the years

Trish Stratus and Lita are both 47 but proved they still have what it takes to perform in the ring. The duo rolled back the years as they tagged together with Becky Lynch to take on Damage Control.

One of the highlights of the match was when Lynch and Lita assisted Stratus in pulling off one of her trademark moves on the outside of the ring.

Prison Dom arrives in style

Love him or hate him, Dominik Mysterio is one of the hottest superstars in WWE at the moment.

Under his new Prison Dom persona, Rey’s son is making a name for himself in the industry. Dominik took the Prison Dom angle to a whole other level with his entrance at WrestleMania.

Charlotte Flair’s brutal landing

Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley’s match was a true war for the SmackDown Women’s title.

The two superstars left everything in the ring as they battled to be the best on the Blue brand. While the match has plenty of big moments, one of the scariest and craziest moments was when Flair landed on her face.

Ripley attempted to perform a German Suplex on The Queen, but Flair didn’t land on her back as intended and instead landed on her face, damaging her nose in the process.

KO goes through a table

The Usos versus Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn was the main event of night one of WrestleMania 39, and the match lived up to the hype.

The two teams fought for the Undisputed WWE Tag Team titles, but the match was about much more than that.

With each team looking to pick up a win in this heated rivalry, there were plenty of incredible moments.

The Usos were looking to do anything they could to retain the titles and even drove KO through the commentator’s table to keep me down.

The defending champions at WrestleMania

WrestleMania 39 is finally here, and plenty of titles are up for grabs.

Six championships will be on the line at the SoFi Stadium as WrestleMania goes Hollywood.

Sports Brief looks at the champions defending their titles and who they will defend against.
