DA' HELL HAPPENED #39: WWE WrestleMania 33
Hello everyone and welcome to probably the biggest edition of "Da' Hell Happened" to date. It was WrestleMania weekend on Saturday and Sunday, and it was lit. New designs for the NXT championships, an amazing Triple Threat elimination tag team match on Saturday for the Tag Team Titles, the return of The Hardy Boyz (Mark it in, maaaaan), and probably the saddest moments in wrestling history with the farewell of The Undertaker at WrestleMania. With a lot to talk about, let's roll!
RESULTS:
Neville (c) def Austin Aries to retain the WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Mojo Rawley won the Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal
Dean Ambrose (c) def. Baron Corbin to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship
AJ Styles def. Shane McMahon
Kevin Owens def. Chris Jericho (c) to win the WWE United States Championship
Bayley (c) def. Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks and Nia Jax (order of elimination) in a Fatal Four Way Elimination match to retain the RAW Women's Championship
The Hardy Boyz def. Anderson & Gallows (c), Cesaro & Sheamus and Enzo & Big Cass in a Fatal Four Way Ladder match to win the RAW Tag Team Championships
John Cena & Nikki Bella def. The Miz & Maryse (John Cena proposed to Nikki Bella after the match)
Seth Rollins def. Triple H in a Non-sactioned match
Randy Orton def. Bray Wyatt (c) to win the WWE Championship
Brock Lesnar def. Goldberg (c) to win the Universal Championship
Naomi def. Alexa Bliss (c), Becky Lynch, Carmella, Mickie James and Natalya to win the SmackDown Women's Championship
Roman Reigns def. The Undertaker in a No Holds Barred match
MATCH OF THE NIGHT (HONORABLE MENTIONS):
Seth Rollins vs. Triple H - "The Architect" slayed "The King" and finally beat his mentor and cement himself as a top guy in the company. It was a great match without a doubt, and one that will go down to the list of matches Triple H has lost to made someone over. I respect that guy a lot.

MATCH OF THE NIGHT (HONORABLE MENTIONS):
AJ Styles vs. Shane McMahon - The most surprising contest of the night was AJ Styles vs. Shane McMahon. No one expected they could go at it, mostly about Shane McMahon not making it up to the rhythm Styles imposes in his wrestling matches. They delivered, and gave the fans a wonderful first match in the main show of WrestleMania, which is always important for a show to be successful.
Seth Rollins vs. Triple H - "The Architect" slayed "The King" and finally beat his mentor and cement himself as a top guy in the company. It was a great match without a doubt, and one that will go down to the list of matches Triple H has lost to made someone over. I respect that guy a lot.
Brock Lesnar vs. Goldberg - Very surprising match, to say the least. 4:45 minutes was the time it lasted, and it was basically a Finisher vs. Finisher match. Glad we got 10 suplexes and great rhythm, which made the match one of the best of the night.
Roman Reigns vs. The Undertaker - No matter how bad the match was in terms of in-ring quality and technique, and no matter how badly you hate Roman Reigns, this was one of those marquee moments in WrestleMania. This was Roman Reigns' night because he defeated the biggest superstar of all time on his show, and definitely rised to the top of the company. This was also The Undertaker's night because he retired and made WWE fans cry, so emotional it was.
MATCH OF THE NIGHT: Gallows & Anderson vs. The Hardy Boyz vs. Cesaro & Sheamus vs. Enzo Amore & Big Cass
I can't remember a bigger pop at WrestleMania in the last years like the one The Hardy Boyz received last night in the Orlando Citrus Bowl. Amazing. The match was great, with awesome and risky spots, and also a great lineage of older and younger stars in the tag team division. After this, the tag team division is probably one of the most powerful, if not the most powerful division in the WWE, and a must-see every Monday night.
MVP OF THE NIGHT (HONORABLE MENTIONS):
Seth Rollins - He slayed "The King" and cemented himself as a top star. Definitely one of the best performances of the night. Also, it needs to be reminded he spent two months rehabbing like a beast only to make it to WrestleMania. Respect to "The Architect".
AJ Styles - Well, he is just phenomenal. He must've been surprised to see Shane going through the match almost at the same rhythm as he always imposes in his matches. It is AJ Styles, ladies and gentleman.
Shane McMahon - Gone through the match in the same rhythm almost as AJ Styles. One of his best performances ever inside a ring. Surprised me and every WWE fan in the world for the performance he put in at the Orlando Citrus Bowl.
Brock Lesnar - Finally conquered Goldberg and finally defeated Goldberg at WrestleMania. On top of the "red brand" as the Universal Champion.
MVP OF THE NIGHT:
It's really hard to choose a MVP of the night out of these three, so they are the MVP's of the night.
Roman Reigns - Critique his booking, but last night Roman Reigns turned from a "rising star" to a "top star". I will go on and say Roman Reigns got so much relevance after beating Undertaker that he is now one of the only, if not the only man (not part-timer) that can go after Brock Lesnar and beat him with logic.
The Hardy Boyz - The Hardyz definitely received the pop of the night, and made a triumphant return as they won the RAW Tag Team Championships. It's safe to say they brought some brilliance to the tag team division, and it is wonderful to see them back after so many years away from the WWE.
The Undertaker - It's so damn sad to remember the final moments of WrestleMania 33, as The Undertaker clearly showed he is retiring. Broke kayfabe, left his gear in the ring and was as emotional as they come. The best of all time.

DA' HELL HAPPENED MOMENT OF THE SHOW (Honorable Mentions): Roman Reigns vs. The Undertaker, Undertaker retires
There one thing in common about the two saddest moments in WrestleMania history: Undertaker lost his match before both those moments. I'm definitely not against Roman Reigns retiring The Undertaker, but it almost makes it to the "Da' Hell Happened Moment of the Show" because it's one of those moments that you don't want to see happening or never thought it would happen, like the streak being broken three years ago. It's a very sad era in the wrestling business, but one thing is for sure: like him or not, this is Roman Reigns' era, and he is the top star in the business right now.
DA' HELL HAPPENED MOMENT OF THE SHOW: Booking inverted
Why? Why the hell would you do this? Why booking Randy Orton to win the Royal Rumble, Bray Wyatt to win the WWE Championship at Elimination Chamber, and have Orton take the title from Wyatt at WrestleMania, while it should have the complete opposite? Wyatt should've won the Rumble, Orton should've won the Chamber, and Wyatt should've defeated and cemented himself as a top guy at WrestleMania, winning the WWE Championship. Having Orton kick out from the first "Sister Abigail" inside the ring and not have Wyatt kick out from the first "RKO" inside the ring just shows how horribly this feud was booked. Wyatt, I feel for you.
And to finish a very special edition of "Da' Hell Happened", I wanted to reveal that my Youtube channel (click here to see it) will be returning on APRIL 30 with a schedule I adapted to be consistent, be active, continue having my personal and professional life outside of the show, and at the same time do what I loved and that was vídeos.
Done. Wednesday I will be back with the review of the RAW and SmackDown Live after WrestleMania, shows that promise to be awesome! See you there!
