How Oddsmakers Fared Tonight, Was Main Event Result Surprising?, NFL Team Tweets Reigns And Lesnar
- Seth Rollins is the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion and a lot of you saw it coming. In our poll asking who would leave WrestleMania as the WWE Champion, Brock Lesnar was in first at 37%. The rest of the votes were pretty much split between Rollins and Roman Reigns, with Rollins slightly edging out Reigns.
- The betting sites had a worse night than usual with their odds for tonight's WrestleMania pay-per-view. The final betting odds at 5Dimes had Brock Lesnar as the favorite to win the WWE Championship match, Sheamus to win the Andre the Giant battle royal (although The Big Show was in second) and Rollins to defeat Randy Orton.
- The Minnesota Vikings tweeted Lesnar and Reigns ahead of their title match tonight. Lesnar played for the Vikings after leaving WWE in 2004 during the 2004?05 pre-season. Reigns was signed by the Vikings in 2007, but was released shortly thereafter.
