Despite the emergence of AEW as a strong alternative, WrestleMania is on the pinnacle of professional wrestling and will do so for the coming future.
Here are four WWE Superstars who have headlined The Show of Shows:
4. Drew McIntyre headlined WrestleMania 36
After being carefully presented, the Scotsman won the Royal Rumble match to reserve his spot in the main event of WrestleMania 36 against Brock Lesnar. However, because of the pandemic, his crowning moment came behind closed doors.
McIntyre was the focus point of programming at a time when there was no crowd present. By the time the audience came back, he had already dropped the title to The Miz. Since then, McIntyre has challenged Bobby Lashley and Big E for the WWE Championship but without any success. He is anticipated to work with Happy Corbin at this year’s event.
3. Randy Orton is a WWE mainstay
Randy Orton is one of Vince McMahon’s most trusted lieutenants. He holds the record for the most premium live event appearances by a male superstar and has headlined The Show of Shows on two occasions.
In his second chance to headline the biggest show of the year, The Viper was a part of Daniel Bryan’s fairytale story. The American Dragon had triumphed over Orton and Batista to cap off one of the greatest stories in WWE history.
2. Becky Lynch was part of the first women’s match to main event The Show of Shows
Becky Lynch had a winning streak in 2018 and earned a SmackDown Women’s Championship match at SummerSlam. Charlotte Flair was also added to the bout. The Queen went on to win the title after pinning Lynch, who had almost made Carmella submit.
Becky Lynch won the 2019 Royal Rumble and headline WrestleMania 35 with Charlotte Flair and Ronda Rousey. Big Time Becks pinned Rousey at The Show of Shows to win both women’s titles.
1. Brock Lesnar will once again headline The Grandest Stage of Them All
Brock Lesnar was reserved to be a megastar from the moment he stepped in a WWE ring. He had one of the greatest rookie years in professional wrestling history, headlining WrestleMania 19 a little over twelve months from his main roster debut.
