WrestleMania 35 did not go how Rey Mysterio had planned, as he was crushed by Samoa Joe in just a minute during their United States title bout.

Fortunately for the Ultimate Underdog, Mysterio got his revenge last night, capturing the Star-Spangled Strap and making history in the process.

With his US title win, Mysterio has become the latest man to capture WWE's Grand Slam in its current format.

To do this, a Superstar must win a World championship, tag team gold, the International title and United States title, all things Mysterio has done throughout his epic career.

Though Samoa Joe attacked Mysterio post match and is itching to win back the gold, no amount of Muscle Busters or Coquina Clutches will undo this huge accomplishment for the Biggest little man in WWE history.

#2: Bayley

Bayley's time on the main roster has been unique to say the least.

Despite a strong start following her 2016 call-up, the huggable one has received stop-start pushes over the past few years.

Despite this, Bayley did make history last night when she became the first woman to hold every women's title on the main roster.

First came the RAW Women's Championship, which she captured in early 2017, followed by her Women's Tag Title win earlier this year, and finally last night's SmackDown Women's Championship win.

When you factor in the new Champ's reign as NXT Women's Champion from 2015-2016, it's obvious that Bayley is building herself a nice Hall of Fame career.

Though other women may follow in her footsteps through the coming years, there can only be one first, and that's Bayley.

#1: Brock Lesnar

Lesnar is the third man to win Money in the Bank, a Royal Rumble and King of the Ring.

The return of Brock Lesnar during the men's Money in the Bank ladder match may not have gone down well with some fans, but the Beast's return has sent shock waves throughout the entire WWE.

And not only did Lesnar's win give him A guaranteed WWE or Universal title match, but he also made history in the process.

With his win, Lesnar becomes the third man to win the Money in the Bank contract, a Royal Rumble match and King of the Ring.

The Beast now joins Edge, who completed the trifecta with his 2010 Rumble win and Sheamus, who won the 2015 Money in the Bank ladder match to join him.

With a guaranteed title match at his disposal, it may be just a matter of time before the Beast Incarnate reigns again.
