WrestleMania 37 is here and once again, WWE has split it up into two nights. Both nights are jam-packed with top-tier matches, with WWE Superstars looking to make an impression.

WWE's biggest annual event will also see fans return to the arenas for the first time in over a year. Unfortunately, WrestleMania won't mark the permanent return of fans to the arena. They will have to wait until the second half of the year to regularly attend WWE events.

The event, as a result, becomes even more special.

The first night of WrestleMania 37 will set the tone for WWE's biggest pay-per-view and offer the second night a standard to live up to.

WrestleMania 37 Night 1 Match Card

The first night of WrestleMania 37 is packed with exciting bouts. As always, what happens at WrestleMania could affect the company's future direction as stars achieve immortality at WWE's biggest event of the year.

#1 WWE SmackDown Women's Championship Match: Sasha Banks (c) vs. Bianca Belair

Bianca Belair won the women's Royal Rumble match and got the right to challenge for the SmackDown Women's Championship. Sasha Banks has finally had a run with a title that's not ended in a few weeks, but she is about to meet more than her match when she faces Belair.

The two are now about to face each other in the main event of the first night of WrestleMania.

Belair has been one of the most promising young stars on the WWE roster since her main roster debut. She has yet to win a single title in WWE despite impressing everyone repeatedly over the years with her performances. Now she has a chance to rectify that wrong.

Predictions: Bianca Belair


#2 WWE Championship Match: Bobby Lashley (c) vs. Drew McIntyre

Bobby Lashley has finally achieved some of the greatness that fans always knew he was capable of. Heading into the match to face Drew McIntyre, he has his work cut out for him.

However, this is a Bobby Lashley that has rarely been seen before. He is ready to do whatever it takes and his ruthlessness does not end there. It might be Drew McIntyre who ends up on the worse side of this encounter.

Predictions: Bobby Lashley


#3 Bad Bunny and Damian Priest vs. The Miz and John Morrison

When Bad Bunny first showed up in WWE, fans weren't sure what to make of him. Since then, he has proved himself to everyone watching. Not afraid to get physical, Bad Bunny has been one of the only celebrities continuously making appearances and putting in the work for almost two months ahead of WrestleMania.

At the event, with Damian Priest by his side, he may finally silence The Miz and John Morrison.

Predictions: Bad Bunny and Damian Priest


#4 WWE RAW Tag Team Championship Match: The New Day (c) vs. AJ Styles and Omos

Fans are yet to see Omos in the ring, but he is making his debut at WrestleMania 37 alongside one of the best superstars of all time. The New Day doesn't really need the title, but if Omos and AJ Styles win them here, it will be one of the greatest in-ring debuts of all time, given that it's at WrestleMania.

Predictions: Omos and AJ Styles


#5 Braun Strowman vs. Shane McMahon in a Steel Cage Match

Braun Strowman is not stupid. That's the message of the match. Shane McMahon thinks he is and is out to prove it. However, Strowman has got Shane to agree to a steel cage match at WrestleMania.

No one would want to be in Shane's shoes at this point, but does he have something up his sleeve? If he doesn't, Strowman might finally set records straight at the event when he gets Shane stuck inside a cage with him.

Predictions: Braun Strowman


#6 Cesaro vs. Seth Rollins

In what might be the best match of the night, Cesaro will face Seth Rollins at WrestleMania. It feels like Cesaro has been waiting for years to get into this position as he has been stuck in the midcard. A win here against Seth Rollins would catapult him up the roster's hierarchy in a matter of moments. It's finally time for him to shine.

Predictions: Cesaro


#7 Lana and Naomi vs. Dana Brooke and Mandy Rose vs. The Riott Squad vs. Natalya and Tamina

The four tag teams will meet on the first night of WrestleMania to determine the next challenger for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. Shayna Baszler and Nia Jax have dominated proceedings in the women's tag team division for some time. Whoever wins this will have their work cut out for them.

Predictions: Lana and Naomi
