The names behind the WrestleMania main event have been revealed.
The Night 1 of the Show of Shows this year featured Cody Rhodes taking on Randy Orton in a chaotic match. Pat McAfee was first taken out on a stretcher after Jelly Roll put him through a table. This didn't keep the former NFL star out for long. He returned wearing a referee shirt after Orton took the match official out with an RKO.
Though after he failed to help Orton in winning the match, Pat ended up eating an RKO as well. Cody then managed to retain his title with a Cross Rhodes as the referee came to his senses. The American Nightmare didn't get to celebrate long, however, as a frustrated Randy ended the night with a punt kick to his former friend.
Who Produced The WrestleMania Main Event
Fightful Select provided a backstage update on the main event match. They revealed that veteran producer Michael Hayes and former NXT Champion Bobby Roode were the two names responsible for putting this bout together.
The future of all three names involved in the finish of the match is uncertain after tonight. Pat McAfee had claimed he'll leave WWE if Randy didn't win, and Orton himself is said to be dealing with health issues. So it seems likely that we will not see either of them on TV for a while.
Rhodes on the other hand, suffered a nasty injury during this bout, which could keep him off TV for a few days. You can check out more about it here.
