[darthobiwan]

Which result should happen? Mysterios win at Wrestlemania, Becky continues her dominant run, or KO shocks everyone?

[bob]

all should stay the same

[darthobiwan]

Mysterios winning and Becky retaining are still tied. I will give this a sudden death vote. Everyone post their picks here and whoever gets 3 votes first or the leader after 12 hours wins.

Becky will retain then. I will post up my booking of Night 1 changes by tomorrow, then can start the voting for Night 2.

We are LIVE from Dallas, Texas in the AT&T Stadium for Night 1 of Wrestlemania 38! 7 matches are happening tonight, which include 2 womens title matches, tag title match, celebrity involvement, and a special attraction with a certain "rattlesnake ".

***Opening match is for Smackdown tag team titles, as Usos from the Bloodline defend against Shinsake Nakamura & Rick Boogs. Usos are able to cut the ring in half and double team Nakamura for several minutes while Booga gets anxious on the apron for the tag in. Shinsake is able to catch Jey off guard with a jump kick to the face and tags in Boogs. Rick is a house of fire as he clotheslimes both Usos several times then pressslams Jimmy over the top rope and onto the floor. Boogs powerslams Jey, then tags back in Shinsake, who finishes off Jey with a Kinshasa kick and pins him! Shinsake Nakamura & Rick Boogs win Smackdown Tag team titles!!!
Pat McAfee gets back on the announce table to dance to Shinsake theme, as Shinsake & Rick are awarded the belts and jump into the crowd to celebrate!

Second match is Drew McIntyre vs Happy Corbin (with Madcap Moss). Corbin tries to win it but hitting end of days.. but Drew kicks out (first time anyway has kicked out of that finisher on main roster). Drew wins by pinning Corbin after end of days. After the match Moss tries blindsiding Drew, but Drew is prepared for him, grabs his sword, and cuts the top and middle ropes off!

I guess they must have fixed the ropes before the next match, because they are back for the bout between Rey & Dominic Mysterio vs Miz & Logan Paul. Paul shows he is not any old celebrity attempting to do wrestling as he does several body slashes and suplexes, then does the 3 amigos and frog splash. However both Mysterios are able to come back and double team Logan. Rey hits a frog splash onto Logan, however just before that Logan had blindtagged Miz in, who catches the distracted Rey to deliver a skull crushing finale for the pinfall victory for him and Paul! The referee raises both of their hands... then Miz turns his head slowly to Paul and when he is not looking... Miz delivers skull crushing finale onto Paul! Miz has turned on another tag partner, and he walks to the back on his own.

***Fourth match is for Raw Womens championship,  as Becky Lynch defends against Bianca Belaire.  They fight hard for almost 20 minutes. At one point Becky traps Bianca in a disarmor but Bianca is able to get to ropes for a break. Bianca catches Becky onto her shoulders and looks to deliver kiss of death... however Becky rolls off and rolls up Bianca while holding onto her tights. Referee does not see it and counts to 3! Becky Lynch is STILL Raw Womens Champion!!!
Bianca and the crowd are upset, with the former arguing with referee while the crowd boos. Becky holds the title up and walks out as champion.

For fifth match we have Seth Rollins coming out to face a mystery opponent.  After Rollins is in the ring, the lights go out in the arena, then a familiar voice says "wrestling has more than 1 royal family", and the crowd goes crazy! A theme called "My Kingdom " plays and almost the whole crowd seems to already know what it is... and out comes Cody Rhodes... who has not been seen since 2016 in WWE! He gets a huge pop as he makes his way to the ring. The match goes over 20 minutes and may be the match of the night and possible for this weekend. Cody nails 3 crossrhodes in a row, a bionic elbow in tribute to his dad, and pins Seth in his first Wrestlemania in 11 years!

Next they do the Hall of Fame introductions with new inductees Steiner Brothers, Sharmell, and Vader's children being on hand among others... then the lights go out and the gong happens... and out comes the final 2022 inductee Undertaker, coming out for 1 more 1 bow and standing ovation from the crowd!

***Sixth match is for Smackdown Womens title, as Charlotte defends against Royal Rumble winner Rhonda Rousey. The 2 women fight hard for 15 minutes. Charlotte escapes 2 armbar submissions from Rhonda, and Rhonda also Powers out of a figure 8 by hitting Charlotte's legs several times. Charlotte misses a big boot attempt onto Rhonda, then Rhonda takes Charlotte down with several suplexes, then Rhonda traps Charlotte in 1 more armbar submission, and this time Charlotte taps! Rhonda Rhousey has won Smackdown Womens title at Wrestlemania!!!
Rhonda celebrates in the ring for a few minutes and high fives a few fans at ringside on the way out.

The main event segment is Kevin Owen's inviting Stone Cold Steve Austin to the ring for "a talk". They each spend a few minutes dissing each other, with KO saying "Stone Cold is just a redneck like the rest of Texas", and Austin saying "your a big piece of trash I should whoop that ass". KO then admits he really just wants to fight Austin and challenges him to a match tonight! Austin accepts and it's a No Holds Barred Match! The match is fairly simple but very effective and the crowd is going crazy for, and this is the first official match for Stone Cold in 19 years! They fight all over the arena, into the crowd for several minutes, then fight back to the ring. KO looks to possibly get the upset win by powerbombing and stunning Austin, but Austin kicks out.  This leads to Austin to getting the better of KO and stunning him for the pinfall victory! Stone Cold Steve Austin celebrates by drinking several beers as the Show goes off the network for Night 1.
