  • Jey Uso walked out with LIL WAYNE and made his entrance. The aura was unmatched.
  • WWE GMs Adam Pearce and Nick Aldis announced the attendance for Night 1 at the Linc, which stands at 72,543.
  • Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson utilized his benefit from being the board member of TKO as he threatened referee Chad Patton that he would fire him if he did not follow his orders.
  • Roman Reigns mistakenly hit The Rock with a spear, and the Brahma Bull's reaction was priceless.

The sole match that could not deliver up to expectations was the brother vs brother match between Jimmy and Jey Uso, as it lacked some chemistry.

It is just night one as another set of action is all set to take place on night two of WrestleMania at the Lincoln Financial Field.
