5 Biggest and Best Moments in Professional Wrestling for April 2017

Where does the departure of Mauro Ranallo rank in our top five of the month?

#4 WrestleMania 33

The showcase of the immortals generated headlines this past month.

The month began with what has often been called the ‘showcase of the immortals,' and indeed Wrestlemania proved to be that once again. The event exceeded four hours of actual show length and was over six hours when including the preshow. Those watching the preshow witnessed Austin Aries and Neville kick off a program for the Cruiserweight title.

Big main show matches included Shane McMahon and AJ Styles going head-to-head with one another, and Brock Lesnar getting revenge for past defeats by not only beating Goldberg but also capturing the Universal Championship in the process. There were numerous other matches featuring superstars from both Raw and SmackDown Live.

It was a welcome moment to see Naomi recapture the SmackDown women's title after her return from injury. These matches built to what was the climactic end of the event, the match between Roman Reigns and The Undertaker.
