The ending to the match saw The Deadman prevailing again and extending his WrestleMania undefeated streak to 20-0. The Undertaker triumphed even though he was hit with several devastating moves during the match, including a Sweet Chin Music and Pedigree combo.

The Game talked about the match and revealed that Michaels talked with him several times in the middle of spots, and was telling him that both men were killing each other.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
