WrestleMania 34 has come and gone and the show saw a number of title changes, a huge heel turn, the end of a streak and the first ever Women's Battle Royal winner crowned. It's safe to say that New Orleans will always remember WWE WrestleMania 34, but for all of the positivity that is coming out of the show, there are a number of negatives to note as well.

On the biggest stage in the wrestling business, it seems that a number of the companies most consistent stars made some humorous mistakes.


#5 John Cena oversells a big boot

John Cena finally faced The Undertaker last night at WrestleMania after weeks of baiting The Deadman into a match on the Grandest Stage Of Them All. Even though Cena was defeated, he did manage to have one of the most memorable moments of the night when he reacted to a big boot from The Undertaker before he was even touched.

Undertaker is inches away from Cena when he drops to the floor, which can be seen from the video above.

#4 Stephanie and Ronda Rousey

Stephanie McMahon claimed that the WWE ring was her ring and that she was going to teach Ronda Rousey who her boss was at WrestleMania 34 and it seems that the former Women's Champion failed on both accounts. The Raw Commissioner was forced to tap out in her first WrestleMania match when Rousey locked her in the armbar, but it seems that this wasn't the worst part of Steph's night.

When the former UFC Champion got the hot tag into the match, it seems that Rousey and McMahon were setting up for something intricate when their arms became entangled and Rousey was forced to act fast to make it look less messy. McMahon went on to botch a number of bumps throughout her match and was seen as the weakest link of the bout by many members of the WWE Universe.

#3 Rough night for Michael Cole

Michael Cole was in the hot seat throughout WrestleMania 34 and it seems that the length of the show was definitely getting to him since he accidentally told the WWE Universe during the Raw Women's Championship match that Alexa Bliss won the Championship back at WrestleMania 22.

Since WrestleMania 22 took place back in 2006, Alexa would have been 14 years old, which means it's highly unlikely cole. It was Mickie James that won the Women's Championship at WrestleMania 22 when she defeated Trish Stratus in her WrestleMania debut

Cole had a number of botches on the night, including stating facts about the suplex that weren't true and then acting like Roman Reigns was expected to kick out of the F5 when it is still considered to be a huge deal because that move has defeated many legends in the past.

#2. Brock Lesnar botches belly-to-belly suplex

Brock Lesnar has made the suplex his signature move over the past few years, so he is the last person that would be expected to botch a belly-to-belly suplex, but The Beast did just that last night at WrestleMania.

Lesnar was brawling with Reigns on the outside when he delivered the belly-to-belly suplex that saw Reigns land squarely on his head. This could have been much worse than it actually was, Reigns was luckily able to continue after the botch.

#1 AJ Styles becomes Universal Champion

AJ Styles defended the WWE Championship for the first time at WrestleMania, but it seems that the technical crew forgot to double check their graphics ahead of the match since Styles was revealed to be the Universal Champion as he made his way down the entrance ramp ahead of his match with Shinsuke Nakamura.

Styles walked into WrestleMania as the Champion and back out with his title around his waist despite the heel turn from Nakamura, but it seems that Styles wasn't phased since he was already thought of as both the WWE and Universal Champion.
