I'll start with a few moments:
What are your favorite moments from this era starting at Wrestlemania 36 and ending at Money in the Bank 2021.

Nothing tops this, IMO. Absolute peak storytelling that could only be done in isolation.

Nothing tops this, IMO. Absolute peak storytelling that could only be done in isolation. Pandemic era Jey was freakin awesome. There was a reason he won the Andre Battle Royal. Sadly he just got placed back in a tag team when the crowds returned. We never got solo Jey in front of a crowd. |

The match where Alexa kept morphing between gimmicks.

The Ladder Match between AJ Styles v Sami Zayn v Jeff Hardy is the best Ladder Match of the last ten years IMO.

It's Austin coming out on March 16, so like Day One of "this is serious" and doing his whole gimmick to f***ing no one. It was at the moment I knew, wrestling is really, really, really f***ing stupid when no one is there to see it.

Lana being the sole survivor of the women's elimination tag match at Survivor Series 2020.
I always wanted to see that type of finish and it finally happened.

"Thank you. Thank YOU. You're all here with me." gets me very emotional  |

It was at the moment I knew, wrestling is really, really, really f***ing stupid when no one is there to see it. I like how they made up for that at WrestleMania this year with Byron getting to take the stunner in front of a crowd. I didn't mind the Thunderdome but the no crowd whatsoever shows were the most depressing things ever to watch. |

I wasn't watching but saw Austin getting an empty room to give him a hell yeah complete with cutting to the empty seats at the appropriate moment. Honestly one of my favourite WWE jokes ever

The creativity of the 2020 Money In The Bank was great, complete with Dana getting scolded by a poorly-edited-in Stephanie for grabbing the wrong briefcase, AJ Styles having traumatic flashbacks to the Boneyard, and Baron Corbin killing two dudes rather than just winning the match.
For early pandemic-era lameness that became amusing, that Becky promo where she came out, talked about winning WM 35, played a clip of the whole match including entrances, and only then finished her promo was something.

Two bits from RAW not mentioned.
When Retribution had 40 members destroying stuff, and suddenly the Hurt Business walked out, and laid shit to 40 people. That was great. That stable should still be a thing!
Also: "You need to be the champion now, because I've got to go and be a mum."

The Fiend attacking Alexa Bliss
Lashley’s career being completely rehabilitated by MVP, The Hurt Business & an excellent U.S. Title run.

That Money in the Bank show that took place in the WWE HQ was fun that only worked during a crowdless show.

The early parts of the pandemic produced some of the weirdest cards that are fun to look back on. Look at this. It's like 3 different 1993 episodes of RAW back to back to back:  |

It really deserved to happen in front of a crowd, but the Drew McIntyre WWE Championship win was such a great moment.
Also the first no-crowd Smackdown. Like that was such a surreal, scary time. And everything felt like it was being done on the fly as they had to throw out what was planned. Still it was something to take my mind off this mysterious, deadly disease for a couple of hours. And Triple H was pretty good on commentary. The whole show had this "we're in this together" feel to it.
