Wrestlemania 36 day 1 results: From new stipulations to new champions, here’s everything that happened on the first night of Wrestlemania 36.
Despite there being no audience in attendance, WWE’s biggest show of the year was nothing short of electric.

This however, had little to no impact on the quality dished out on Saturday.
