WWE WrestleMania 36: Highlights, Results & Recap

Drew McIntyre def. Brock Lesnar to win WWE Championship

While CM Punk made a brief cameo in the Firefly Fun House match via past footage, the big MMA stories of the WrestleMania double-header came with Brock Lesnar and Shayna Baszler both being beaten on the grandest stage of them all.

Next year, it wouldn’t be all too surprising to see former UFC star Matt Riddle make his WrestleMania debut – but for now, he continues to thrive down in NXT.
