Night Two of WrestleMania saw Big E defend his Intercontinental Championship against Apollo Crews in a Nigerian Drum Fight. Ahead of the match, Crews kept tight-lipped about the rules of the match but made it clear that it would be one where he would give Big E the beating he deserved.
WWE officials were even left a little confused by what the match would entail if rumors were to be believed. But in the end, it was just a street fight, with some drums and gongs.

WWE didn't really pull anything new out for the match, except a few green props. Instead of this being the making of Apollo Crews, since he was able to link back to his ancestry, the match will be remembered for the debut of Dabba-Kato.
The former RAW Underground star made his SmackDown debut as part of the match at WrestleMania where he helped Crews to become Intercontinental Champion by taking out Big E.
