The energy in the room shifts dramatically as we dissect WrestleMania 40's unexpected twists and controversial outcomes. From John Cena's shocking championship victory to Paul Heyman's game-changing betrayal, this year's Showcase of the Immortals delivered moments that left the wrestling world buzzing—though not always for the right reasons.
Night One kicked off with disappointment as Jey Uso defeated Gunther in what many felt was an underwhelming match that failed to capitalize on their intense feud. The audience's reaction was clear: over 40,000 dislikes on YouTube compared to just 27,000 likes. We explore why this outcome felt so unsatisfying despite its significance. Meanwhile, Jacob Fatu's dominant performance against LA Knight for the United States Championship emerged as the evening's true highlight, showcasing exactly why Fatu is one of wrestling's most captivating monsters.
The women delivered consistently throughout both nights, with Jade Cargill proving she belongs on the main roster against veteran Naomi, while Charlotte Flair and Tiffany Stratton surprised many with their physical confrontation. Night Two opened strong with an exceptional triple threat between Io Sky, Bianca Belair, and the controversial inclusion of Rhea Ripley.
Perhaps most frustrating was the disconnected storytelling in the main event scene. After weeks of "Final Boss" Rock build-up and soul-selling narratives, John Cena's championship victory felt oddly disjointed from the elaborate story that preceded it. Travis Scott's involvement raised more questions than answers, leaving us to wonder: did WWE miss the mark by not delivering on the promised spectacle?
