WrestleMania 36 wasn't your average WrestleMania for a multitude of reasons. First off, the Coronavirus made it so that the WWE couldn't have fans in attendance. With this in mind, they decided to do something completely different. The Boneyard match featuring the Undertaker was one of the best parts on Saturday although it was outshined by the Firefly Fun House match which took place on Sunday between John Cena and Bray Wyatt. You also had Rob Gronkowski getting into the mix as he won the 24/7 title.
From there, the championship match between Drew McIntyre and Brock Lesnar took place. Fortunately for wrestling fans, it did not disappoint. Both wrestlers traded massive blows to start and in the end, it was a war of attrition. By the end of the match, McIntyre had come out victorious and became the first-ever British WWE Champion.
McIntyre has overcome a lot of hardship up until this moment so it was cool to see him come away with the huge win. Fans were very excited about his triumph and overall, it was the perfect way to cap off a weekend that could have been a disaster. Instead, it was one of the most memorable WrestleManias in recent memory.

WWE Royal Rumble: Edge Returns, Brock Lesnar Sets Record & More
Who will Edge feud with on the road to Wrestlemania?
WWE kicked off the road to Wrestlemania on Sunday at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas, and there is plenty for wrestling fans to be excited about. For one, WWE legend Edge is officially back.
The R-Rated Superstar made his shocking return as the No. 21 entrant in the Royal Rumble event, marking his first real in-ring action in over nine years.
Edge delivered several spears during the Rumble before finally being eliminated by Roman Reigns in the final moments of the match. It remains to be seen which superstar Edge will feud with moving forward, but fans can expect the big payoff to come at Wrestlemania 36 in Tampa in April.
Earlier in the Royal Rumble, WWE Champion Brock Lesnar set a record by eliminating 13 people in a row up until NXT's Keith Lee entered the fold. Shortly thereafter, Drew McIntyre got into the mix and sent Lesnar over the top rope with a well-timed Claymore Kick. McIntyre stared down Lesnar after the fact and later went on to win the Royal Rumble, which will surely set up a clash between The Scottish Psychopath and The Beast Incarnate at Wrestlemania.
Elsewhere on the card, Charlotte Flair won the 30-woman Royal Rumble, "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt defeated Daniel Bryan in a brutal Strap Match, and Becky Lynch retained the Raw Women's Championship against Asuka.
