Gunther Vs. Jey Uso (World Heavyweight Championship)

WrestleMania 41 Saturday kicks off with World Heavyweight Champion Gunther taking on Royal Rumble winner Jey Uso. A steady start with Jey Uso and Gunther feeling each other out, though it was clear to see Uso favoring his right arm early on, with signs pointing towards a potential injury. This didn’t stop Uso from taking Gunther down with a step-up enzuigiri, but Gunther soon took advantage with a big chop, sending Uso to the outside. Big moves were traded, with Uso hitting a big spear and Samoan Drop, only for Gunther to come back with a superplex from the top rope, and a high-stack powerbomb for a two count.

Jey Uso failed to get the job done with a big splash, allowing Gunther the opportunity to nail him with a cheap shot with the World Heavyweight Championship belt. Gunther then hit a splash of his own, before attempting to choke Jey Uso out with a sleeper hold.

Uso and Gunther traded stiff blows as the match continued on, with the challenger steadily building momentum as a brief period of Gunther dominance. Jey Uso pulled out a massive powerbomb reversal on Gunther, followed by a pair of superkicks to the Ring General. Uso rallied in front of the wild audience, hitting a trilogy of Uso splashes and locking in his own sleeper hold, to which Gunther tapped out instantly.

The War Raiders Vs. The New Day (World Tag Team Championship)

New Day came out of the gate hot, but their plan backfired as Erik caught Kofi Kingston, using him as a battering ram. The War Raiders took control, with Ivar hitting a double crossbody on the outside, followed by a splash that scored a near-fall. The New Day soon took control, beating down Erik.

The two teams went back and forth for the next few minutes, with The War Raiders nailing some big moves, with Ivar just about making it all the way over for a moonsault. Erik and Ivar took control, but with the referee’s back turned, Kingston knocked Ivar from the ropes, assisting Woods with a pinfall victory.

Jade Cargill Vs. Naomi

Jade Cargill wasted no time in taking it to Naomi, attacking her rival out of the blocks with a takedown, kicks, and biel across the ring. Naomi managed to find her way back into the match, issuing a beatdown on the outside of the ring, hitting Cargill on the steel steps and nailing a blockbuster.

Cargill soon took control herself with an explosive kick and Stinger Splash, also catching Naomi out of the air as she attempted another blockbuster, before hitting a Jackhammer in an impressive feat of strength. Naomi nearly got the job done with a wild top rope bulldog, followed up with her signature split-legged moonsault, but she only managed to achieve a two count. Cargill’s outer worldly strength was the defining factor in this one, as she pummeled Naomi with a powerbomb and Jaded to finish off her rival.
