One of the things WWE constantly got right on Night One of WrestleMania was the choice of winners. Some fans worried that Braun Strowman's momentum would be ruined for good with a loss to Shane McMahon.

WWE made it look like Braun Strowman would lose after pre-match attacks from Elias and Jaxson Ryker. Strowman had to overcome the storm multiple times inside the steel cage, but the finish at WrestleMania was brilliant.

WWE went with an original finish at WrestleMania, where Braun Strowman ripped open a part of the steel cage just as Shane McMahon was about to win. He threw Shane McMahon into the ring from the top of the steel cage and finished things off with a Powerslam - proclaiming that it was for everybody who was called stupid.

It was a slow start to the match, but the crowd got into it, and the finish was fantastic. It was the right payoff with the babyface getting the win after getting bullied.
