WrestleMania 35: 5 biggest things WWE secretly told us at the PPV

We have finally witnessed the biggest event of the year! In what felt like a card somewhat underwhelming on paper, WWE delivered one of the most enjoyable WrestleMania's in the company's history.

Everything about the show felt impressive as the placement of the featured showdowns and their respective in-ring quality felt perfect.

It's undeniable that Vince McMahon brought more spotlight to telling some quality storytelling between the ropes, and the event saw all the favorite babyfaces hold the gold at the end of the night.

Whilst Seth Rollins' victory over Brock Lesnar stunned the entire world, Kofi Kingston's epic victory could be ranked very highly amongst one of the greatest WrestleMania moments of all time, if not the greatest.

A lot of things were at stake. From Triple H and Kurt Angle's in-ring careers under jeopardy to Roman Reigns' first singles match in almost six months, the creative team ascended the credibility of all the showdowns by clinically capturing the essence of the event that is WrestleMania.

The night certainly ended in controversy with Becky Lynch pinning Ronda Rousey in unceremonious fashion to take home all the gold that was at stake in the main event of the visual extravaganza.

Regardless of what transpired, there were many things the company vicariously told us through some of their segments and matches that transpired. What were they? Let's find out.

#1 Seth Rollins could be a heel Universal Champion

The Architect realizes his dream

WrestleMania 35 saw Seth Rollins and Brock Lesnar open the show and raise the game with some decisive storytelling between the ropes for the Universal Championship.

Since the recent episode of Monday Night Raw saw The Architect use dirty tactics to get the upper hand on The Beast Incarnate, nobody was expecting the former WWE Champion to walk out of New Jersey as the WWE Universal Champion.

But he did, and that too in the same way as he did on the red brand. Considering that Rollins now has his hands on the top prize, him going low to slay The Beast yet another time feels that something shocking could be in the works.

With Drew McIntyre working as the only legitimate heel on the red brand, Rollins' recent tactics could be signaling a heel run as the Universal Champion.

Whilst many in the internet wrestling community would want Seth to have a babyface run as the champion, the way he won is only suggesting otherwise.

#2 Dean Ambrose is gone and might not be coming back anytime soon

The Lunatic is done

Despite months of speculation on how WWE would be finally able to convince Dean Ambrose, his absence at The Grandest Stage of Them All has made waves all over the globe.

While many had lost their faith on the Dean Ambrose situation, some were expecting him to have a similar situation as CM Punk where he would stun everyone in style and turn heel on Roman Reigns.

Considering that The Big Dog enjoyed his first singles match in six months, The Lunatic Fringe's absence has put rest to all the unending conjectures of how he might still re-sign with Vince McMahon's billion dollar company.

The former WWE Champion is gone and may not be returning to WWE anytime soon, which certainly feels like a very very disappointing prospect for someone as hard-working as Dean Ambrose.

We hope that the self-proclaimed 'Moral Compass' of WWE finds joy and success in whatever he pursues after his contract runs out with the company.

#3 John Cena's thuganomics gimmick returned to divert the negativity surrounding Kurt Angle's final match

The Doctor has returned

While many fans had little expectations about what John Cena could be doing at The Show of Shows this year, his sensational return as The Doctor of Thuganomics was something nobody in the world expected.

Considering almost everyone in the WWE Universe wanted The Cenation Leader to be involved in Kurt Angle's farewell match, the creative team went ahead with Baron Corbin as the main antagonist.

Much to our dismay, The Lone Wolf finally succeeded in conquering a battered veteran in The Olympic Gold Medalist, but Cena's return in his popular old gimmick could be more than what is meeting the eye at the moment.

WWE certainly knew the amount of reception they would receive if they continued with the original plan of having Corbin tussle it out with Angle, and the company went ahead and displayed Cena in an unforgettable avatar.

The Doctor of Thuganomics interrupted Elias' performance and went on an absolute rant before finishing it off with an Attitude Adjustment. The booking felt genuine and was successful in diverting our attention towards Angle's farewell encounter. Now, that's clever booking.

#4 Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair were thoroughly protected in the controversial main event

This felt disappointing

After Becky Lynch won the Royal Rumble and ascended her status as the legitimate favorite to win the Raw Women's Championship at WrestleMania, the creative team pretty much went ahead and booked a convoluted mess.

From Charlotte's inclusion to Ronda Rousey relinquishing the gold, the main event was slowly but surely losing its momentum in the weeks heading into WrestleMania.

Whilst I was very excited to see how these three talented female performers co-exist in the same ring, the company delivered a very sloppy bout to end The Show of Shows.

It's understandable how Becky Lynch won, but many in the WWE Universe have expressed their resentment on how terrible the match looked in execution.

The company certainly wanted to protect Ronda Rousey and Charlotte Flair, and since they could not go against Becky Lynch, they gave us a very unceremonious finish to the Winner Takes All match.

#5 Xavier Woods and Big E may not turn heel on Kofi Kingston

Kofi has realized the ultimate dream

What a difference a year could make. Kofi Kingston's journey to the very top of the industry has been emotional, riveting, and absolutely deserving of recognition.

The Dreadlocked Dynamo entered the MetLife Stadium as the biggest underdog in the entire industry and through his passion and perseverance managed to knock Daniel Bryan out to win the WWE Championship.

Now, many in the WWE Universe were expecting Xavier Woods and Big E to turn on Kingston and ignite a blockbuster rivalry for the ages.

However, the company avoided going that route and did something that felt pretty genuine and sensitive. Kofi Kingston has cemented his legacy as one of the greatest underdogs in the company's history and much of the credit here goes to 'The New' Daniel Bryan on managing to gravitate such nuclear heat in such a short amount of time.
