WWE WrestleMania 42 Venue: Allegiant Stadium (Las Vegas, Nev.)
Trick Williams had a superstar entrance amplified by returning hype man Lil Yachty. Sami Zayn dominated the early minutes of the match. He laid waste to Lil Yachty by throwing him into the barricade and hitting a Helluva Kick. There was a scary spot with Trick on the outside where the referee had to check on Trick to make sure he was okay. He was.
Sami followed up with a Helluva Kick on Trick against the guardrail. Trick struggled to his feet, but Lil Yachty returned and stunned Sami over the ropes. Trick hit a flying kick for the nearfall.
Sami set up Trick Williams for a Helluva Kick, but Trick responded with a Trick Knee for the win. Right choice, good match, but this was shorter than it should have been.

Dominik Mysterio’s amazing entrance featured several masked luchadors carrying him on a throne. Dirty Dom also donned a lucha mask. Dom removed the mask with no problem and dove onto the luchadors, who caught him. The luchadors stood at attention as Dom walked down the ramp. They followed him with Mexican flags. A truly spectacular entrance for one of WWE’s future pillars.
Not to be outdone (though he was, but barely) Finn Balor returned as the Demon. There was a familiar sound of a heartbeat as Balor walked through a sea of smoke and touched an artificial heart. Balor grabbed a spiked helmet on a stick and walked down the aisle menacingly. Given how short the matches have been this WrestleMania weekend, these great entrances alone might be better than the match itself.
Fans popped as the bell rang. The Demon crawled toward an apprehensive Finn Balor. Balor bumped Dirty Dom to the outside and grabbed a table. Mysterio pounced, armed with a kendo stick, and denied Allegiant Stadium a table for now.
Balor flattened Dominik with a front suplex onto two chairs, but Dirty Dom fired back with a 619. The Demon kicked out at one. Balor went for the Coup de Grace but missed as Dom hit a drive-by chairshot.
Dom went for the ladder an the heel actually slid it into the ring. Dom set the table up in the corner. Dom put Finn through the table and pummeled him with a steel chair. Dom messed up while setting up the chair, and Allegiant Stadium broke into a chorus of loud boos. Dom soaked them in.
The Demon rose to his feet and pillmanized Mysterio’s neck with a running dropkick. Demon hit a Coup de Grace through the table for the win.
Jade Cargill had a storm-themed entrance as she walked out in an immaculate, layered dress. Rhea came out to a great reaction and got the fans hyped in Vegas. Jade Cargill was unbothered in the ring. Rhea was cheered just as loudly as Jade was booed during the ring introductions.
