Deep Six... Almost!

It was very nearly an unhappy ending for the Olympic Gold medal winner as Corbin nails him with his signature Deep Six, but the legend gets a shoulder up at the last. He fights on, for now...

BARON CORBIN DEFEATS KURT ANGLE!

There's no happy ending for Kurt Angle at Wrestlemania. There were some flashes of his past in that brief performance, but after missing a top-rope moonsault, he eats an End of Days from Baron Corbin, who seals the win with a three count.

Bobby Lashley is not wasting any time taking this match to the challenger and goes on the attack, but Balor, the Demon, responds in kind with a Swing Blade on the outside.

Lashley then fights back with a pair of massive, huge spears that brings the pendulum of this match back in his favour.

End to end.
