John Cena won his record-breaking 17th world title at WrestleMania 41, beating Cody Rhodes in dramatic fashion in his final year in wrestling.

The atmosphere in Allegiant Stadium was palpable. The crowd booed the face in Rhodes and cheered the heel in Cena, similar to The Rock vs. Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 18. With each move Cena made, the crowd was elated. When it seemed Rhodes had the edge, they weren't happy. 

Everyone expected shenanigans in the match, especially with Cena's involvement with The Rock. It wasn't The Rock that showed up, but rapper Travis Scott. He hit Rhodes with a hard shot at the Elimination Chamber, and Rhodes got his lick back. That distraction led to Cena and Rhodes fighting over the world title. Rhodes got it but didn't use it. Cena had no problem using it to win the match.

Cena has surpassed Ric Flair for most all-time title wins. And now he holds WWE hostage. What does this mean for WWE moving forward? 

It was a historic end to a historic night. While WWE's past will dominate headlines, its future looks bright. 

Bron Breakker looked like the next big thing in pro wrestling at WrestleMania, but it was Dominik Mysterio who won the Intercontinental Title. Mysterio beat Breakker, Penta, and Judgement Day partner Finn Balor for gold. He worked well with Balor until he attempted to turn on him. Balor, visibly upset, ended his partnership with Mysterio. 

It didn't bother Mysterio. Balor almost won the match with a Coup de Grace, but Mysterio landed the Frog Splash on him to take gold back to Liv Morgan. 

Morgan needed it, as she lost the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship with Raquel Rodriguez. Lyra Valkyria needed a tag team partner after Bayley was removed from the match. WWE stated she was injured, but reports said she wasn't. Regardless, Valkyria required help, and she got it in the form of fellow Irish wrestler Becky Lynch.

Lynch returned for the first time in a year, and it looked like she had never left. They beat Morgan and Rodriguez to the delight of the crowd. Valkyria, the Women's IC Champion, followed in Lynch's footsteps and became a double champion. 

Do you believe in Joe Hendry? Randy Orton faced the TNA World Champion after a match against Kevin Owens got nixed due to injury. It didn't last long, but TNA, and mainly Hendry, got massive exposure. 

Many questioned why Drew McIntyre vs. Damian Priest was on the WrestleMania card. Both proved the doubters wrong by delivering in a Sin City Street Fight. They continued their rivalry from the last WrestleMania when Priest cashed in on McIntyre, who had just won gold. One thing was for sure: McIntyre wasn't leaving WrestleMania without getting a selfie. 

They threw everything but the kitchen sink at one another. McIntyre, a man possessed, put Priest through steps, tables, and chairs, the latter with his neck for the win. The feud may not be over, but McIntyre is ready to move on to his next victim. 

Opening the show, Iyo Sky continued her unbeaten run against Bianca Belair and Rhea Ripley when she retained the Women's World Championship. In one of the best matches of WrestleMania weekend, all three women gave it their all.

Belair, a face getting booed through the build, proved she's one of the best in the world by avoiding the noise and showcasing her strength. Speaking of strength, Ripley showcased her ability to the fullest. One day, those two will have a singles match at WrestleMania. However, today was all about the crafty Sky, who proved doubters and oddsmakers wrong by retaining.
