Jey Uso def. Gunther (c) - World Heavyweight Championship

After Triple H welcomed fans to WrestleMania 41 and a DJ made a brief appearance for some reason, it was time for the opening contest almost 20 minutes into the show as Gunther defended the World Heavyweight Title against Jey Uso. It was mentioned before the match that Jey Uso was 0-6 in world title matches, while Gunther has a 51-3 record in WWE.

Very little happened in the opening moments as Gunther just worked over Jey Uso while Uso appeared to have legitimately hurt his arm slightly from all of the YEETING during his entrance. This continued for the next few minutes until Uso hit Gunther with a Spear out of nowhere, but only secured a near fall.

Uso kept favouring his right arm due to a possible legit injury to his left, with the referee regularly checking on Jey. While this was going on, Gunther connected with a Powerbomb to Uso for a near fall of his own. Jey countered another Powerbomb attempt with a Spear and Uso Splash for another near fall.

Gunther grabbed the World Heavyweight Title belt and hammered Uso with it after the referee had to move out of the way. Gunther followed up with a Splash, but Uso kicked out. Jey then managed to escape a Sleeper Hold by reaching the ropes.

After more men went back and forth with Lariats which Uso won, Uso hit a German Suplex before Gunther hit a Shotgun Dropkick and went for a Powerbomb but Jey escaped it and hit a Powerbomb of his own. Jey followed up with two Superkicks, a Spear, and three Uso Splashes, including one to Gunther's back. Jey Uso then locked in the Sleeper on Gunther for the submission win.

Post-match, Jey Uso celebrated with Jimmy Uso.

The New Day (Kofi Kingston & Xavier Woods) def. The War Raiders (Ivar & Erik) (c) - World Tag Team Championships

The New Day attacked The War Raiders just as the bell rang but the champions soon dominated, with Ivar hitting a Senton to the floor and following up with a Powerbomb in the ring for a near fall. The match then settled down, with both teams enjoying time on top.

Kofi connected with a Trouble in Paradise to Erik, but he ran straight into a Spinning Kick from Ivar. Ivar then killed Kofi with a Moonsault but Xavier Woods broke up the pin with a Flying Elbow.

The champions soon after went for the Viking Experience but it was blocked. The War Machine was then blocked by Kofi and the challengers hit their finisher before Kofi held down Ivar's leg so he couldn't kick out to score the 1-2-3.

The New Day are the new World Tag Team Champions.

Jade Cargill vs. Naomi

Jade Cargill went after Naomi with a vengeance and battered her opponent around ringside until Naomi literally clawed her way back into the ring by raking Jade's eyes. Naomi then followed up with an X-Factor to the floor before a Blockbuster from the ring steps.

After several minutes of Naomi dominance, Cargill fought back with a Title The World Backbreaker before she blocked a Blockbuster with a Jackhammer. The crowd popped following a Fallaway Slam from Jade and the former AEW TBS Champion was flattened by a Bulldog from the second rope before A Split Legged Moonsault for a near fall.
