Here are five things to watch for on Night 1 of WrestleMania as around 25,000 fans descend on Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla.\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Moment_of_truth\"><\/span>Moment of truth<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There is little doubt who the two main-event stars are on \u201cMonday Night Raw,\u201d and we will see them collide as WWE champion Bobby Lashley defends his title against Drew McIntyre. There has been thought that WWE wants to get McIntyre the crowd-pop moment he couldn\u2019t last year when he completed his long journey to become WWE champion for the first time. If this match opens the show, you can expect that to be the direction we are heading. McIntyre has operated on a different level than most people in the company over the past year, carrying it through the COVID-19 pandemic with excellent pay-per-view matches, stories with depth and his natural charisma.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" alt=\"WWE WrestleMania 37 Drew McIntyre\" class=\"wp-image-17791773 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/WWE-WrestleMania-37-Drew-McIntyre.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/WWE-WrestleMania-37-Drew-McIntyre.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/WWE-WrestleMania-37-Drew-McIntyre.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/WWE-WrestleMania-37-Drew-McIntyre.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/WWE-WrestleMania-37-Drew-McIntyre.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Drew McIntyre faces Bobby Lashley at WrestleMania.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">WWE<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But a title win and third reign that felt so certain not too long ago doesn\u2019t anymore thanks to Lashley. He beat The Miz to become WWE champion for the first time after helping the A-lister successfully cash in his Money in the Bank contract on McIntyre at Fastlane. Lashley, like the Scotsman, has finally reached his full potential in WWE with the help of MVP, The Hurt Business and his well-protected full-nelson finisher. He has only lost twice in singles matches since June, to McIntyre and Matt Riddle.<\/p>\n<p>WWE can\u2019t go wrong with either guy leaving as champion in this match between two superstars who also wrestled for the TNA Impact championship in 2016 (Look how far we\u2019ve come). Lashley leaving with the belt gives you a monster, unbeatable heel to move forward with or McIntyre gets the moment the pandemic took away from him and further solidifies himself as the face of the company. It\u2019s not out of the question that Brock Lesnar awaits the winner at some point.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Youre_Not_The_Boss_of_Me\"><\/span>You\u2019re Not The Boss of Me<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>WWE has fumbled the creative a bit, but Sasha Banks versus Royal Rumble winner Bianca Belair is a big damn deal. The match feature two of the strongest female characters in WWE and great representation with both being African-American. Banks is in the middle of the longest singles title reign of her career on the main roster at more than 165 days as SmackDown women\u2019s champion and this will also be her first singles match at WrestleMania. A win would further cement her spot at the top of the women\u2019s division and could mean we are in for a very long reign.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" alt=\"WWE\" class=\"wp-image-17787810 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/SUR_11222020JG_14696.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/SUR_11222020JG_14696.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2021\/04\/SUR_11222020JG_14696.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1000 1000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1000px\"\/><figcaption>Sasha Banks<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">WWE<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Belair is the newcomer, the fresh face up from NXT with plenty of star power and potential getting set for her first WrestleMania match. WWE has properly set up this feud in the last two weeks \u2013 after some convoluted storytelling involving a wine expert, the women\u2019s tag team champions and both Banks and Belair taking pins. Banks has begun belittling Belair as the \u201crookie\u201d to position herself as more of the heel. It certainly feels like a storyline setting up Belair, who has delivered some great babyface promos, to overcome and give us someone new at the top of the SmackDown women\u2019s division.<\/p>\n<p>The other women\u2019s match on the card will see the teams of Lana\/Naomi, Mandy Rose\/Dana Brooke, Natalya\/Tamina, Ruby Riott\/Liv Morgan and likely Billie Kaye and Carmella (one can hope for Peyton Royce) square off to earn a shot a facing women\u2019s tag team champions Nia Jax and Shayna Baszler on Night 2.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bunny_Business\"><\/span>Bunny Business<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Grammy-winning artist Bad Bunny makes his in-ring debut teaming with Damian Priest against The Miz and John Morrison. The story has been percolating since Bad Bunny leaped from the top rope onto Miz and Morrison at the Royal Rumble. Bad Bunny is a big wrestling fan and worldwide celebrity with 31.6 million followers on Instagram who give WWE the crossover publicity it craves. He is also a former 24\/7 champion. <\/p>\n<p>WWE has done a good job slowly crafting this story with Bad Bunny standing up to The Miz\u2019s bully attempts and demand for respect. Miz is the perfect foil for Bad Bunny because he\u2019s great at making people want to see him get beat up no matter what, whether it\u2019s with a ridiculous parody music video or putting paint all over Bad Bunny\u2019s Bugatti.<\/p>\n<p>The times Bad Bunny, who has been regularly training for this match, has gotten physical have also looked good. Making this a tag team match also gives him more protection in the ring than the originally booked singles match. It\u2019s up to Bad Bunny to deliver now.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Miz &amp; John Morrison attack Bad Bunny after desecrating his $3 million car: Raw, Apr. 5, 2021\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/WSGdnfSfbzE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Steal_Appeal\"><\/span>Steal Appeal<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The remaining Night 1 bouts may not have the big-match buildup, but they certainly have a chance to steal the show. Seth Rollins and Cesaro are two of the best pure wrestlers WWE has. Cesaro, who is getting his first WrestleMania singles match, has taken things to another level in all areas of his performance lately, too. Will it finally be Cesaro\u2019s time or will Rollins be working his way back to the top of the card? Expect a big push for whoever comes out of this victorious.<\/p>\n<p>Braun Strowman against Shane McMahon in a steel cage has had a pretty silly build. McMahon, who has brought in Elias and Jaxson Ryker\u00a0as muscle, keeps calling Strowman stupid and demeaning him. Expect plenty of outside interference, even in a cage, and McMahon taking at least one crazy bump.<\/p>\n<p>The Raw tag team championship match between A.J. Styles and a debuting Omos versus The New Day has really flown under the radar. Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods keep doubting Styles and Omos\u2019 ability to work as a team, so look for that story to play out. These are three of the top in-ring performers WWE has and we don\u2019t know what we have in the gigantic Omos. This could be fun.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Welcome_back\"><\/span>Welcome back!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s going to be great to have fans back at a WWE event for the first time in more than a year (please everyone stay safe). It\u2019s going to give us a real sense of who is over and just bring an energy back that\u2019s been missing. It will be interesting to see how the fans are spread out around the stadium, how close they are to the ring and how loud they sound. The best part of all of it will be seeing and hearing the wrestlers\u2019 genuine reactions and interactions with the crowd they\u2019ve and we have missed so much. \u00a0\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
