Here are three things that WWE got spot-on at last night's event, as well as two things that could've been that bit better.


#3. Got it right: Shocking opener

They always say that you don't get a second chance to make a first impression, and WrestleMania 35 certainly made a great first impression.

Starting off with Alexa Bliss and Hulk Hogan, the pair were interrupted by Paul Heyman, who demanded that the Universal title match would go on first if it wasn't to go on last.

In a short, high-octane match, Lesnar and Rollins immediately got fans pumped up, though it was Rollins who emerged the victor.

Using a low-blow and three Curb Stomps to capture the Universal title, no-one can claim that the new Champion fought fair, but after the Beast's sporadic appearances with the gold, it seems the end justifies the means.

With Lesnar's reign now reserved for the history books, tonight we begin the era of the Architect.
