Wrestlemania 32 - Recap

Match 1 - Ryback v Kalisto(C)  (US Championship)
Not much too this match, just the bully against the underdog with the underdog getting the win.
Winner: Kalisto

Match 2 - Total Divas v B.A.D. & Blonde
Firstly, why the fuck was Eva Marie in the match?
Secondly, Paige is better than a kick off match in the pre-show
Thirdly, what was Lana wearing in her first match?
Winner: Total Divas

New Women's Championship revealed as a replacement for the Divas Championship

Match 3 - The Usos v Dudley Boyz
Third match of the pre-show. The Usos got the win and the Dudley's attack them after the match and try to put them through a table, However Usos counter and put both Dudley's through a table instead.
Winner: The Usos

Wrestlemania Starts

Match 4 - Ladder match - Kevin Owens(C), Sami Zayn, Dolph Ziggler, Stardust, Zack Ryder, The Miz and Sin Cara (Intercontinental Champion)  
Had some great spots with Sin Cara falling off a ladder putting Stardust through another ladder. Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens finally having a fight after what happened back in NXT. And then after everything, no one is in the ring but The Miz, he climbs the ladder sits at the top and looks around at the crowd as the boos come flooding in, but then, just as he goes to reach for the belt, Ryder comes running in and pushs the Miz from behind, grabbing the belt and letting the Boos become Woos!
Winner: Zack Ryder and new champion

Match 5 - Chris Jericho v AJ Styles
As much as I didn't want it to happen, Jericho hit some fantastic codebreakers in the match, including the one that put AJ away by hitting the move mid-air as AJ jumps from the ropes.
Winner: Chris Jericho

Match 6 - The New Day(C) v The League of Nations (non-title match)
Seeing The New Day come out of a giant box of cereal dressed in Dragon Ball Z armour is surprisingly entertaining. However, the match wasn't as great as the entrances with The Lads, oh, sorry, the League of Nations picking up the win.
Bad News Barrett picks up the mic and starts saying how much better they are than any 3 men in the WWE. Then Shawn Michaels music hits and he is in his ring gear, and the crowd are going crazy, then Mick Foley comes out, in his ring gear and if the crowd aren't dead yet, the next one really did kill them with excitement as Stone Cold Steve Austin comes out and then all three men walk down the ramp and beat the crap out of the Nation. Then if it couldn't get any better, The New Day come back into the ring and teach the Legends how to dance. Shawn pulls off a twerk and Mick Foley does some kind of dance, but then when it comes to Steve Austins dance, he starts to, before giving a stone cold stunner to the New Day.
Winner: League of Nations

Match 7 - Dean Ambros v Brock Lesnar with Paul Heyman
"The Ambros Asylum was relocated to Suplex City"
It was fairly one sided unless Dean had a weapon to hand but in the end, everyone knew what would happen, Brock shows why hes the beast.
Winner: Brock Lesnar

Match 8 - Charlotte( C - Previous Divas Champion), Becky Lynch and Sasha Banks (First Women's Champion)
I loved this match, I was a tiny bit disappointed with the victor, but it was still a great match, the matched proved what Lita said previously about the Divas division, how they aren't Divas. They're Superstars. And they proved why all three of them should be the new women's champion. However with Sasha being held outside the ring by Ric Flair, Charlotte has Becky in the figure-8 and she is defenceless and has to tap out. However even though she lost the match, Becky still has the best part of the night as she jumps over the top rope and takes out Ric Flair.
Winner: Charlotte and first Women's Champion

Match 9 - Undertaker v Shane McMahon in a Hell in a Cell match
Holy Shit!
The 46 year old man jumped from the top of the cell and put himself through an announce table and still told the Undertaker to bring it. Shane McMahon has balls, and I hope this introduced Shane McMahon to a whole new generation who never knew how freaking bad-ass Shane was back in the attitude era. Because most superstars wouldn't do that now, let alone Legends that are almost 50 years old. This match was about Legacy and they sure as hell left a Legacy that night, with Undertaker adding another victim to his Wrestlemania list to go 23-1 and Shane McMahon leaving a legacy in showing how much he's still willing to do even though he's been absent for 7 years.
Winner: The Undertaker

Match 10 - Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal
With surprises such as Shaquille O'Neal, Diamond Dallas Page and Tatanka, the biggest surprise was the winner. NXT superstar Baron Corbin. In his first WWE match (that isn't WWE NXT) he wins and its at Wrestlemania, and he has to defeat 19 other men to get this win. I hope this is the start of big things for him in the WWE and I'm glad he was the winner.
Winner: Baron Corbin

The Rock makes the announcement that this was the Wrestlemania new record  for attendance. And before he gets to leave, the Wyatt family come out and make threats against the Rock, which then leaves room for:
Match 11 - Rock v Eric Rowan
The Rock Rock Bottoms Eric Rowan and pins him in 6 seconds to break the record for quickest match at Wrestlemania in history.
Winner: The Rock
But its not over for The Rock, The Wyatt family all surround the Rock and prepare to attack him, but then the music starts playing of JOHN CENA. (DU DU DU DUUUU). Who then helps The Rock take them out.

Match 12 - Triple H (C)v Roman Reigns (WWE Championship)
BOOOOO! BOOOOOO! BOOOOOO!
Whenever Roman had the upper hand: BOOOOO!
Whenever Roman did something good: BOOOO!
Its getting to the point where I just feel sorry for him, Roman is a good superstar, but the fans just don't want him in the title picture and its ruining his career because the WWE are clearly pushing him too much. But in the end, Roman Reigns gets the win, surprise, he was then booed out of the arena and that was how Wrestlemania 32 ended.
Winner: Roman Reigns and new WWE Champion.
