WrestleMania 35 was one of the most enjoyable shows put together by WWE. This was a long event, but the crowd had one of the best experiences ever. The 16-match card was full of medium-grade fillers that eroded the audience's energy, especially towards the end.

WWE could find 49 personalities to appear on the show. Most of the winners were those which were expected by the fans. Here are five main card matches ranked on the enjoyment and crowd's reaction.

#5 The Miz vs Shane McMahon

The match turned out to be far better than expected, although there was a massive build-up to this contest. Both of them fought with gusto and great temperament, fighting around the entire arena. They did not even spare the international commentary tables while throwing each other wildly. McMahon took a fall over a guardrail and then onto the ground.

George Mizanin, the father of The Miz, saved his son from the elbow drop, but could not save him from getting defeated by McMahon. This was definitely one of the most enthralling matches of the night.

#4 Batista vs Triple H

This match was as hardcore as the fans could get. Batista looked out of sorts, and Triple H was his usual self. The Game made a grand entrance and pretty much dominated the show. Both of them made use of everything in the arena to beat each other, including a toolbox. The fight was around 25 minutes long with some silly moments too which included a nose ring being torn from Batista's face.

Triple H did a lot of heavy lifting which included whipping The Animal with a metal chain. In the end, The Game won the match which was far better than their previous WrestleMania match.

#3 Charlotte Flair vs Ronda Rousey Vs Becky Lynch

Despite the massive build-up to this match, this fell slightly below expectation. Ronda Rousey looked a bit rusty, but Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch took the fight to a great level. There were a number of botches, and the fight went on for a long time which bored the audience a bit. Rousey started with punches and kicks and threw both of them outside the ring. Flair displayed a double spear on her opponents.

Lynch won the match as she pinned Rousey. The finish may have raised some eyebrows, but they put on a great show.

#2 Seth Rollins vs Brock Lesnar

This was one of the most creative opening matches in the history of WrestleMania. The Beast ambushed Seth Rollins, and both of them beat each other for what looked like perpetuity. Lesnar started with a clear advantage until The Architect put away The Conquerer after three curb-stomps to become the new Universal Champion.

It was a short but convincing match. Rollins will be remembered for a long time to win one of the most memorable shows in WWE history.

#1 Kofi Kingston vs Daniel Bryan

Kofi Kingston was in the news for all the wrong reasons, in recent times. Having worked hard for 11 years, he seized this opportunity to defeat Daniel Bryan and became the WWE Champion. Kingston was always pushed as an underdog by WWE, but it was this year that he realized his dream.

Bryan put Kingston into numerous painful positions, but he made sure to come out on top each time. The American Dragon hedged Kingston in a waist lock, but he escaped. Bryan played a perfect heel.

Kingston had answers to all the moves and stunts thrown at him by his opponent. The Dreadlocked Dynamo punched Bryan with Trouble in Paradise to pin him down and won the Title. The entire WWE Universe supported him in a highly tensed match.

From start to finish, this was a near-flawless match. The celebration was highly emotional as Kofi's two sons embraced him with his newly-won title belt. Big E gifted a T-shirt symbolizing the 11 years of hard work put by Kingston in his WWE career. The MetLife Stadium went wild when Kingston lifted the WWE Championship over his head.
