The ThunderDome era came to an end on Friday night when WWE were finally allowed to return to the road and present their product in front of a capacity crowd.
The ThunderDome has been a fantastic home for WWE over the past 16 months but the return to the road now signals a new era which is set to come with a lot of surprises.
The fact that WWE hasn't been able to present live events and travel over the past year has meant that their superstars have only been wrestling as part of their weekly TV shows. The lack of travel has meant that wrestlers have been part of fewer matches overall.

Since the turn of the year, there have been many fortunate superstars who have been able to retain quite the winning streak. Whilst some of these stars have either lost via disqualification or as part of tag team matches when someone else has been pinned, these five stars are all yet to be pinned in 2021.
#5. Current WWE RAW Tag Team Champion Omos
Omos didn't make his in-ring debut until WrestleMania, but he was able to capture the Tag Team Championships at his first attempt.
In recent weeks, AJ Styles and Omos have been part of several storylines on WWE TV where it's been noted that Omos is the monster of the team. Styles has been aligned with Omos as a way to help the newcomer adjust to life in WWE and it appears that the duo are already working well together.
WWE is obviously making a big deal about the fact that Omos is seven foot tall and it would take someone around his size to be able to take him down.
AJ Styles and Omos will defend their RAW Tag Team Championships against The Viking Raiders this weekend at Money in the Bank and it's obvious who will come out on top. Unless Styles is the one who takes the pin for his team to lose the titles since Omos is yet to be pinned, it's unlikely that it will be done as part of his first title defense in a tag team match.
#4. Current WWE Superstar Tegan Nox
Tegan Nox had been away from WWE TV over the past few months after suffering a torn ACL in September.
Nox made her return at the beginning of the month as part of NXT's Great American Bash where she caused the distraction that saw Indi Hartwell and Candice LeRae lose their NXT Women's Tag Team Championships.
Just days later, Nox made her debut on the main roster alongside Shotzi Blackheart and the two women were able to defeat current WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Natalya and Tamina.
Despite the non-title victory, the four women battled again this past week on SmackDown and once again Shotzi and Nox were able to secure victory.
The year is already seven months in and Nox is yet to be pinned and has already had two main roster matches. The two back-to-back wins over the Tag Team Champions guarantee the former NXT stars a match for the titles in the future, which could be the end of Nox's current undefeated run in 2021.
#3. Current WWE NXT UK Champion WALTER
WALTER has been the reigning WWE NXT UK Champion for more than two years and has been able to fight off every challenger that has come his way.
In those two years, WALTER has defeated the likes of Pete Dunne, Tomasso Ciampa, Rampage Brown, A-Kid, Ilja Dragunov and Joe Coffey. WALTER has also made several appearances on NXT which led to a successful title defense at WWE's NXT: Takeover: Stand and Deliver, back in April.
WALTER has become one of the company's most unbeatable stars so it comes as no surprise that he is yet to be pinned. WALTER is yet to lose a match in 2021, as his reign of terror in NXT and NXT UK continues.
The current NXT UK Champion recently suffered a legitimate hand injury which means that his upcoming title defense against Ilja Dragunov has been postponed. The injury is reported to have happened whilst fighting backstage with his current challenger, but sources suggest that it is a real injury and it's unclear how long the champion will be out of action.
#2. Current WWE NXT Champion Karrion Kross
Karrion Kross is still undefeated on WWE TV, more than a year after officially signing with the company.
In that year, Kross became a two-time NXT Champion, but he didn't lose the title the first time around, he was forced to relinquish the Championship when he suffered a legitimate shoulder injury. Kross separated his shoulder in his victory over Keith Lee at NXT Takeover: XXX in August 2020, which meant that his first title reign was less than a day.
Kross returned to WWE TV a few months later and picked up where he left off. He reclaimed his NXT Championship and retained his undefeated streak. Kross has been able to brush aside the likes of Finn Balor, Keith Lee, Damian Priest, Adam Cole and Johnny Gargano over the past year, many of whom are now already part of WWE's main roster.
Kross and Scarlett Bordeaux have dominated NXT over the past year and recent reports now suggest that the duo could be heading to the main roster where this domination will no doubt continue.
#1. Current WWE Universal Champion Roman Reigns
It comes as no surprise that the biggest name in WWE at present has been able to remain unpinned throughout 2021 after eight matches.
Whilst Roman Reigns lost a tag team match alongside Jimmy Uso via disqualification in the fall of 2020 but has since been on an incredible undefeated streak throughout 2021 which has seen Reigns continue to flourish as WWE's Tribal Chief.
Reigns was able to overcome the odds at WrestleMania when he took on both Daniel Bryan and Edge in a triple threat match in the main event. The Head of the Table pinned both of his opponents in order to win the match since he decided to make quite the statement by stacking them on top of each other.
Reigns has since overcome Cesaro at WrestleMania Backlash and Rey Mysterio inside the Hell in a Cell structure whilst now looking forward to Money in the Bank. If anyone is able to end Reigns' unpinned record then it would be The Rated R Superstar this weekend.
