5 Fallouts from WrestleMania 36 - Becky Lynch revisits unfinished business, Braun Strowman's challenger for Universal title revealed?

All things considered, WrestleMania 36 was a special show that will be remembered by fans for a long time. Albeit for a few hours, WWE managed to make the world forget about the tough situation we're in right now.

This year's Mania had something for everyone. The Boneyard Match and the Firefly Fun House Match stole the show in particular and as a result, cinematic bouts could well become a norm in the future. In addition to the various surprises, we also had two first-time world champions in Drew McIntyre and Braun Strowman, both of whom will now have an eye on their upcoming title defenses.

Following a show that was too big for one night and had a whopping 18 matches in total, the landscape of the WWE is bound to change. Without further ado, let us look into five possible fallouts from WrestleMania 36.

#5 A returning Nia Jax confronts Becky Lynch

Remember when Nia Jax almost knocked out Becky Lynch in the build-up to Survivor Series 2018?

Many were left stunned when Becky Lynch retained the RAW Women's Championship against Shayna Baszler. Given how rapidly the Queen of Spades managed to quash aside all competition heading into WrestleMania, it felt like the perfect occasion for The Man to finally drop her title. However, that wasn't to be.

Becky Lynch is now all set to extend her reign over a year and has already defended the RAW Women's title against every legitimate contender. So what's next for her? Well, there is one Superstar on whom Becky is yet to assert her dominance and that is Nia Jax.

Both Becky and Nia have an impending faceoff left in the bag following the SmackDown Women's invasion of RAW back in 2018 where The Man was left concussed following a brutal blow from The Irresistible Force. This even resulted in Becky having to bow out of her scheduled clash at Survivor Series against Ronda Rousey.

That run-in never transpired into an actual feud and this would be the right time to settle some unfinished business. Nia Jax has only recently been medically cleared after having torn her ACL in both knees and will be raring to go. Perhaps, this time she would even manage to put Becky in her place for good, who knows?

#4 The Fiend sets his eyes on the Universal Championship again

"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt only recently lost the Universal Championship

In what was a controversial affair, Goldberg managed to put an end to "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt's reign of terror at Super ShowDown and claimed the Universal Championship. However, he dropped the title to Braun Strowman in a little over two minutes at WrestleMania 36 as the Monster Among Men claimed his first world title in the WWE.

Given that Strowman wasn't originally meant to be on the WrestleMania card, it doesn't seem that the management plans to keep the Universal title on him for long. At the same time, he is an actual monster and WWE must put forward a credible challenger for him.

At this moment, there's no one with a better reputation on the SmackDown roster than "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt. The former Eater of Worlds seems to have quickly regained his lost momentum after securing a huge victory over John Cena last night at WrestleMania.

The two have history and you must not forget that Strowman made his debut on the main roster as a member of the erstwhile Wyatt Family. Thus, the elements are in place for the Creative to tell a proper story that culminates into a captivating feud.

#3 Fire and Desire splits up; mixed tag team match in the works

One of the best WrestleMania moments from this year

Given the personal nature of this clash, things are far from over between Otis and Dolph Ziggler. Otis is too hot right now for the WWE management to not make the most of so expect this feud to be elongated.

Mandy Rose's attack on both Sonya Deville and Ziggler adds a new flavor to the storyline. This could very well signal the end of Fire and Desire and the breadcrumbs are in place for a potential face-off between Mandy and Sonya.

Sonya Deville accompanying Ziggler to the ring for his match and Mandy ending up in Otis' corner by the end of the encounter opens up the opportunity for a mixed tag team affair too.

Remember that Sonya is yet to explain her decision to sabotage Mandy's date. So there's a lot of fuel left in the tank to build on. For what it's worth, we could have a new power couple in WWE by the end of it all!

#2 Sasha Banks turns on Bayley

Sasha Banks helped Bayley retain her title on WrestleMania

This has been a matter of when and not if for some time now. Ever since it was announced that Bayley would be defending her SmackDown Women's Championship in a Fatal 5-Way Elimination Match that would also involve Sasha Banks, the relation between the two has tensed up a bit.

The events from last night's match are sure to strain the situation even further. Bayley caught Sasha with a running knee by accident and even deflected a Lacey Evans ambush that resulted in The Boss getting laid out by the Women's Right. Interestingly, Bayley was in no rush to help her friend either when Banks was getting pinned by Evans.

Sasha Banks ended up lending a helping hand to Bayley for the win but maybe now she's had enough. Maybe now, Banks sees the selfish side of her best friend.

As an added incentive, Banks has never won the SmackDown Women's Championship. All that's standing between her and becoming the second woman Grand Slam Champion in WWE history is Bayley. So it's likely that we'll see The Boss attack her friend next Friday. This is also likely to result in a face turn for Sasha Banks.

#1 Seth Rollins challenges Drew McIntyre for the WWE Championship

Seth Rollins is one of the best heels in the history of the company

Drew McIntyre has indeed come a long way. Following the disappointment of his initial run in the WWE, The Chosen One has gone on to fulfill the prophecy. McIntyre has had a phenomenal 2020 so far and he's capped off his recent string of successes with a resounding win over Brock Lesnar.

Seth Rollins, on the other hand, suffered a loss at the hands of Kevin Owens in a match that definitely had the best spot – KO jumping off the WrestleMania logo onto the announce table – in the entire show. However, this does not take away Rollins' credibility. It only means that he's ready for a fresh start and there's no better way to shake things up than a run at the WWE title.

McIntyre has a lot of momentum right now and for him to maintain that, he must immediately get into back-and-forths with the best in the business else he runs the risk of fizzling out. And there's no one better than the Monday Night Messiah himself. This matchup will also maintain the heel vs face dynamic and keep the WWE Universe hooked.
