They sure like to push that phrase down our throats, so what were the quintessential moments of Wrestlemania 35?
As much as I wanted it to be, Becky finally winning wasn’t one of them. The fans were too tired and the finish too quick and out of nowhere to really get a reaction.
But Cena returning as Thuganomics Cena? Moment. Kofi winning and getting his new title (and t-shirt)? Moment.
Any others?

This mania will be remembered mostly for being the first Women's Main Event and the Kofi win. Cena's Thuganomics returns will only be remembered if he shows up some more with it (which he won't unless they want to give us a real Angle/Cena final match tonight for Raw to make up for Corbin using the gimmick). It might be remembered as Angles final match, but I still have doubts it will really be his final match and it wasn't even slightly good enough to be remembered otherwise like Flair/Shawn.

I think the enduring image of this show is going to be Kofi's celebration. Just fantastic.

Funnily enough, they hardly ever mentioned that term they supposedly shove down our throats, which is good.
As for what moments will be remembered? I’d say Seth beating Brock in such quick fashion, Kofi finally winning the big one, the return of Rap Cena, and Becky finally winning her life long goal are the moments that’ll last.

Kofi with his kids is a great feelgood moment.

I don't think I'm going out on a limb by suggesting Kofi winning and the aftermath will go down as one of the greatest moments in Mania - hell, in WWE - history.

Funny Moments: Miz's Dad, Batista falling then laughing when he enters the ring a second time correctly, Cena/Elias
Embarrassing: HHH's "Midlife Crisis with a 20 dollar CGI budget" entrance
All Time Moments: Kofi winning, Becky winning, Paul's face during the 1-2-3 of Rollings/Lesnar

Kofi winning and the post-celebration with family and New Day.
Miz/Shane suplex off the cliff was pretty cool but don't know if it will be a "moment".
Lots of random shit at this year's WM. Just pretty underwhelming overall.

Kofi winning, Cena returning to confront Elias, and maybe the end bump of the Miz-Shane match even though they made it way too obvious they were bumping into a pillow

Billie Kay immediately allowing emotion to get the better of her and bursting into tears when the referee hit the three count was a nice moment for me. Think Iiconics are going to be good title holders too

#1 moment is easily Kofi's celebration. When people think of this WrestleMania, it's what will come to mind first.
#2 I'd go with Becky holding up both titles to close the show, even with the weird finish to the match.
#3 Seth swinging the Universal Championship at the top of the stage.
#4 IIconics crying tears of joy.
#5 George Mizanin ready to throw down.

My moment? Tangentially Kofi, but came slightly later. They introduce Booker T to guest commentate the US title match... and his eyes were red from crying over Kofi. That hit me almost as much as Kofi actually winning. Just... you think back for Mania 19 and how close he came and what was said during his attempt to get Big Gold. It took fifteen years, but Kofi did what he wasn’t allowed to do - win the World title at WrestleMania.
History, time,passion and patience... damn, man, that means more than anything and is just profound beyond words.

Cesaro getting about 90 rotations on Ricochet in the swing is a minor one.

Becky's hair was a WM Moment itself, it was beautiful.
Also, Tony Nese going "THIS IS MY WRESTLEMANIA MOMENT!" to no reaction whatsoever was an unintentionally hilarious WM Moment. Part of me felt bad because I'm a fan, but I also cracked up.
