5 Shortest WrestleMania matches in history

The Rock said he’d break records at WrestleMania, and so he did!

3. Daniel Bryan vs Sheamus (00:18 seconds) at WrestleMania 28

Sheamus won his 2nd World Championship at WrestleMania 28

The opening match of WrestleMania 28 saw Daniel Bryan defend his World Heavyweight Championship against the 2012 Royal Rumble winner, Sheamus. It was quite an astonishing moment, but after just 18 seconds into the match, Sheamus emerged the victor and became the new World Champion!

Bryan was accompanied to the ring by his kayfabe girlfriend AJ Lee. As the bell rang, AJ would give Bryan a ‘good luck’ kiss which ultimately was the game changer.

Sheamus would deliver a Brogue Kick as soon as Bryan turned and pinned him for the win. The following week, Daniel dumped AJ Lee, blaming her for his WrestleMania loss.
