WrestleMania 37 is in the books, but some controversial details about the main event have risen. Roman Reigns’ epic title defense against Edge and Daniel Bryan was one of the best matches in recent history, but its ending has become a subject of debate. ROMAN REIGNS’ WRESTLEMANIA WIN MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE At WrestleMania, Roman Reigns wrestled a near flawless match against Edge and Daniel Bryan, which ended with the Tribal Chief pinning both his opponents to retain his title. However, fans on Twitter believe Edge might be the new champion since he lay on top of Daniel Bryan, while the referee counted the pin. The referee of the triple threat match, Charles Robinson, is one of WWE’s most experienced officials. He responded to a fan who questioned the result of the main event. It even got the attention of WWE official Adam Pearce, who might address the problem on SmackDown. Charles Robinson claimed he saw four shoulders on the mat and counted the pinfall. Since the referee’s discretion is final, Roman Reigns is the winner. However, Adam Pearce might have something else on his mind and has summoned Robinson to his office. Will Adam Pearce address this problem on SmackDown this Friday, or is this just a silly prank played by Pearce and Robinson on the WWE Universe? WHAT’S NEXT FOR THE TRIBAL CHIEF? [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/roman-reigns-wm31-championship.jpg] Roman Reigns is obviously going to boast about his epic win at WrestleMania [https://www.wwe.com/shows/wrestlemania/wrestlemania-37] 37. His victory might be the most dominant in WrestleMania history and puts him in the upper echelon of WrestleMania performers. He can boldly claim he’s beaten Undertaker, Triple H, Drew McIntyre, Edge, and Daniel Bryan at WrestleMania. Given the controversy surrounding the pinfall and Jey Uso costing him the match, Edge will undoubtedly feel cheated out of a guaranteed title win. Although, Reigns winning was the right call, as putting the title on a 47-year-old would’ve been bad. Edge is a phenomenal wrestler, but he’s nothing compared to the Tribal Chief. Edge [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/edge/] might be the next challenger for Roman [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roman-reigns/], but he has many other potential opponents in the long run.

<h2 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania</h2>
One of WWEâ€™s Big Five, WrestleMania is arguably the largest pro wrestling event in the world. Its first iteration featured the likes of Andre the Giant, Mr T, and Hulk Hogan, and a total attendance of just shy of 20,000 people. With WWE increasing the stakes each year, its latest iteration, WrestleMania XL, is set to feature over 25 of the promotionâ€™s biggest wrestlers, including Dwayne Johnson, Roman Reigns, Cody Rhodes, and Rhea Ripley.
<h2 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania Origins</h2>
WrestleMania was conceptualized as a rival to NWAâ€™s Starrcade, which began in 1983 and was initially organized by Jim Crockett Promotions. The two promotions were in a fierce battle to come out on top in the 80s, with NWAâ€™s popularity waning as the then-WWF expanded nationwide, with a hope to go global. Former WWE head honcho Vince McMahon was credited with creating the concept of WrestleMania. The PPVâ€™s name originated from WWFâ€™s lead ring announcer Howard Finkel, as a play on the Beatlemania of the 60s.

As WWFâ€™s inaugural PPV, the first-ever WrestleMania took place in 1985 at Madison Square Garden. Though WrestleMania 1 didnâ€™t manage to outshine the 1985 edition of Starrcade, which had a combined attendance of 30,000 people, it still managed to beat Starrcadeâ€™s debut attendance of 15,000, with over 19,000 people attending WrestleMania 1 in person, setting the stage for a PPV that would go on to become a household name.
<h2 style="text-align: center">Evolution of WrestleMania</h2>
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania I-IV: The Foundation</b></h3>
Even with its debut, WrestleManiaâ€™s core tenet was â€œgo big or go homeâ€. WWF went all out, with a match card featuring wrestling greats like The Iron Sheikh, Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan, Ricky Steamboat, David and Bruno Sammartino, and The Fabulous Moolah. In keeping with what would later become tradition, the flagship marquee event also featured several big names from the era, including boxing legend Muhammed Ali, pianist Liberace, pop sensation Cyndi Lauper, and New York Yankees manager Billy Martin.

The all-round success of WrestleMania 1 saw WWF overtake NWA and AWA (American Wrestling Association). The event was critical to the '80s wrestling boom, which saw a sharp increase in the demand for professional wrestling.

Shortly after, WrestleMania II took the show to another level, simultaneously taking place in three different venues across the country - New York, Chicago, and California. While initially received poorly, as the logistics of organizing a major wrestling event across three venues overtook the promotion, it set the stage yet again for WWF one-upping itself with each edition.

In comparison, WrestleMania III managed to outshine its previous iterations, having broken the record for the largest recorded attendance at an indoor live event in North America with a purported attendance of over 93,000 people, only broken by WrestleMania 32 in 2016. It was also iconic for its matches, with Ricky Steamboat vs Randy Savage, and Hulk Hogan vs Andre the Giant going down in history as two of the greatest matches in pro wrestling history. While not as iconic as its predecessor, WrestleMania IV featured the first appearance of Donald Trump at a Mania, marking the start of the relationship between the promotion and the Trump Organization.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania V-X: The Golden Era</b></h3>
WrestleMania during the Golden Era was truly something to behold. The promotionâ€™s fame had skyrocketed, effectively cementing itself as a stalwart player in the pro wrestling industry. With the success of WrestleMania came the introduction of pay-per-views like SummerSlam, Royal Rumble, and Survivor Series, meaning that the Golden Era had more to offer throughout the year.

However, WrestleManiaâ€™s popularity never waned with the addition of the new PPVs, as it continued to remain the biggest wrestling event in the country. WrestleMania saw some of the most legendary moments in WWE history in the early â€˜90s. Major feuds between Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage, and Shawn Michaels, aka Mr. WrestleMania, and Razor Ramon managed to outsell competitors in popularity.

The Golden Era of WWE served as a platform to cement the legacies of several WWE legends who have remained a household name till today, including Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and The Ultimate Warrior. WrestleMania VII also saw the beginning of The Undertakerâ€™s Mania streak that would continue well into the 2010s.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania XI-XX: Attitude Era Impact</b></h3>
WrestleMania during the Attitude Era saw the culmination of several iconic storylines coming to a head at the Grandest Stage of Them All. The PPV reached its peak during this period, with â€˜Stone Coldâ€™ Steve Austin beating Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XIV for the WWF Championship title, marking the first of six title reigns.

This also marked the beginning of the legendary rivalry between Austin and Dwayne â€˜The Rockâ€™ Johnson, the epitome of the Attitude Era. WrestleMania XV saw the first fight between the two pro wrestling stalwarts, where Stone Cold beat The Rock during the main event to win back the WWF Championship belt.

The beginning of the new Millennium also saw the introduction of the first-ever Triangle Ladder match, with the iconic tag teams The Hardy Boyz, The Dudley Boyz, and Edge and Christian going against each other for the WWF Tag Team Championship. This era also saw the first-ever WrestleMania under the WWE at WrestleMania XIX, which also marked the end of Steve Austinâ€™s feud with The Rock.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania XXI-XXX: New Millennium Milestones</b></h3>
In keeping up with becoming bigger and better, WWE introduced the concept of the Money In The Back ladder match at WrestleMania 21, which would become a main fixture in the PLE. This period of WrestleMania managed to rival the Attitude Era, giving us iconic matches with The Undertaker vs Batista at WrestleMania 23 and Ric Flairâ€™s retirement match against Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XXIV.

WrestleMania XXX in particular was something to behold, as The Undertakerâ€™s unbroken 22-year streak was finally broken by Brock Lesnar, rendering the WWE universe in awe. Other moments also include Daniel Bryanâ€™s rise to the top after an initial win against Triple H and a win against Randy Orton and Batista for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
<h3 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania during the 2010s</b></h3>
The latter half of the 2010s saw increased interest in WrestleMania as WrestleMania 32 broke the attendance record previously set by WrestleMania III, with an attendance of over 101,000 people. With WWE itself moving towards organizing events in international venues, this expanded the reach WrestleMania had with fans outside of the States. WrestleMania 35 was the first since 2000 to not feature The Undertaker, but more importantly, was also the first WrestleMania to feature a womanâ€™s main event, with a triple threat match between Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Ronda Rousey.
<h3 style="text-align: center">WrestleMania in the 2020s</h3>
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 36</b></h4>
WrestleMania 36 was a plethora of WrestleMania firsts, with the first-ever edition of the PLE to be held across two nights and the first to not have a live audience due to pandemic restrictions. Considering restrictions, the 2020 iteration of Mania was widely regarded a success, especially in the backdrop of no live audiences, as well as several last-minute changes to the roster to account for potential health risks. This was also heightened by WWE deciding to play with its format, with a Firefly Fun House match with Bray Wyatt taking down John Cena.
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 37</b></h4>
While WrestleMania 36 was an example of WWE making do, WrestleMania 37 saw the promotion come back bigger and better. The 37th iteration of The Show of Shows took place in Tampa, Florida, where the reduction in COVID-19 protocols meant more freedom for WrestleMania to have a live audience, albeit limited capacity and with restrictions to the audience.

This also marked the first WWE event to be livestreamed solely on Peacock, a product of the WWE Networkâ€™s earlier merger with Peacock in March of that year.
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 38</b></h4>
WrestleMania 38 marked the year when WWE returned the Showcase of the Immortals to its full capacity, with over 131,000 people attending over the course of two days. This also led to the evolution of WrestleMania Weekend, with WWE kickstarting the PLE with a special edition of Friday Night SmackDown featuring an Andre The Giant Memorial Battle Royal. The PLE also saw the surprise return of Cody Rhodes, as he took on Seth Rollins on Night 1, as well as Roman Reigns vs Brock Lesnar headlining the event on Night 2.
<h4 style="text-align: center"><b>WrestleMania 39</b></h4>
In its most recent iteration, WrestleMania continues to prove its worth as the biggest pro wrestling event in history, with Mania 39 grossing $21.6 million in ticket sales alone. The PLE saw the appearance of several modern WWE greats including John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Rey Mysterio, Charlotte Flair, Edge, Roman Reigns, and Cody Rhodes.

<h2>Edge 2022 - Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h2>
If there ever was a man who put extreme on the map, it would be ‘The Rated-R Superstar ‘ Edge. This name rings long and hard in the minds of WWE fans that respect and love the legend dearly.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

Edge is a star that always gives it his best in the ring. There is nothing that he cannot do and manages to stun everyone with his daredevil-like attitude in the ring.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://newyork.cbslocal.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/14578484/2020/01/Edge-3.jpg?w=1024" alt="" width="1024" height="615" data-iml="3893.0000000000005" />

Over the years, fans have grown accustomed to seeing him do the unthinkable in the ring. Edge is one of the most successful Superstars in WWE history and one of the best current wrestlers in the ring. His work in the ring is unparalleled and he is one of the few who carry on the torch of old-school wrestling.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h2>History<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></h2>
<h3>Early career</h3>
Edge began his career wrestling in several independent promotions across Canada. As a college student, he trained in the school boxing ring which had a hard mat. He learned how to limit his damage during falls from here which helped him later on in his career.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fwQrJ1xNrGs/maxresdefault.jpg" alt="" width="1280" height="720" data-iml="23041" />

His skills were noticed by Bret Hart’s manager Carl De Marco, who recruited him under the WWE banner once he was president of WWF Canada. Edge worked in development territories and lived with a colleague until his career took off.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>
<h3>WWE</h3>
After impressing superiors, Edge made his debut on Raw on the June 22, 1998 episode. He soon climbed top the pecking order and formed a vampiric faction with Gangrel and Christian called the Brood.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/photo/image/2012/06/Edge_Classic_005.jpg" alt="" width="686" height="384" data-iml="22683" />

The Brood would eventually work with The Undertaker during the Ministry of Darkness Era. Edge worked with Christian a lot since they were best friends. Their pairing goes back decades and they work very well together.

Edge broke out as a solo Superstar once he had received enough recognition. His work as a tag team had cemented his character in the eyes of fans and his time had come.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.ringsidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/edge-christian.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="579" data-iml="13472" />

After a couple of tries as a solo character, the crowd seemed to back him and he was given the green light. Over the next few years, edge spent his time in legendary feuds with The Undertaker, John Cena, and Randy Orton before heading towards multiple Championship reigns.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/wwe_16_9_s/public/2020/01/24_WM22_040220006rf_1545R--a87179a33ea7a9499c46c3e3ac30629c.jpg" alt="" width="640" height="360" data-iml="4284" />

‘The Rated-R Superstar’ won the World Heavyweight Championship a record 7 times and is widely recognized as the face of the title which does not exist in WWE today. He also held the WWE Championship and Tag team Championships multiple times with Randy Orton and Christian.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://fanbuzz.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/5/2019/07/edge-wwe.png?w=1200&amp;h=627&amp;crop=1" alt="" width="1200" height="627" data-iml="18649" />

Edge competed in a number of legendary matches and was no stranger to hardcore. He fought against the best names in the business such as Mick Foley, The Hardy Boys, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, and John Cena, all of which were known to take things over the limit.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://media.bleacherreport.com/f_auto,w_800,h_533,q_auto,c_fill/br-img-slides/004/369/791/3edae1d34e679f6662bc29fcaa86cdca_crop_exact.jpg" alt="" width="800" height="533" data-iml="32096.000000000004" />
<h3>Retirement</h3>
He often performed the most dangerous moves and stunts. The Superstar was known for giving his body to the ring for entertainment, a feature that ultimately took its toll on him.

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.thesun.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/NINTCHDBPICT000455338150.jpg" alt="" width="1200" height="1200" data-iml="11364" />

After years of taking hits to his back, Edge finally pulled his last straw. In 2011, shortly after his victory at WrestleMania against Alberto Del Rio, ‘The Rated-R Superstar’ underwent a medical scan.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

He then received the news that he had spinal stenosis due to the hits he took throughout his career. He was also given the sad news that if he wrestled again, he risked paralysis or even death.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

<img class="n3VNCb alignnone" src="https://www.wwe.com/f/styles/gallery_img_l/public/photo/image/2011/04/RAW_933_Photo_087.jpg" alt="" width="686" height="384" data-iml="4539" />

The neck injury sustained during the WrestleMania fight proved to be the decisive point in his career. In an emotional speech, Edge bid farewell to his fans and was forced into an uneasy early retirement.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span>

He was subsequently inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2012 for his contributions to the wrestling world. Edge continued to appear for WWE in various segments as himself but never wrestled.

Edge 2022 &#8211; Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements If there ever was a man who put extreme on the map, it would be ‘The Rated-R Superstar ‘ Edge. This name rings long and hard in the minds of WWE fans that respect and love the legend dearly.  Edge is a star that always gives it his best in the ring. There is nothing that he cannot do and manages to stun everyone with his daredevil-like attitude in the ring.  Over the years, fans have grown accustomed to seeing him do the unthinkable in the ring. Edge is one of the most successful Superstars in WWE history and one of the best current wrestlers in the ring. His work in the ring is unparalleled and he is one of the few who carry on the torch of old-school wrestling.  History  Early career Edge began his career wrestling in several independent promotions across Canada. As a college student, he trained in the school boxing ring which had a hard mat. He learned how to limit his damage during falls from here which helped him later on in his career.  His skills were noticed by Bret Hart’s manager Carl De Marco, who recruited him under the WWE banner once he was president of WWF Canada. Edge worked in development territories and lived with a colleague until his career took off.  WWE After impressing superiors, Edge made his debut on Raw on the June 22, 1998 episode. He soon climbed top the pecking order and formed a vampiric faction with Gangrel and Christian called the Brood.  The Brood would eventually work with The Undertaker during the Ministry of Darkness Era. Edge worked with Christian a lot since they were best friends. Their pairing goes back decades and they work very well together. Edge broke out as a solo Superstar once he had received enough recognition. His work as a tag team had cemented his character in the eyes of fans and his time had come. After a couple of tries as a solo character, the crowd seemed to back him and he was given the green light. Over the next few years, edge spent his time in legendary feuds with The Undertaker, John Cena, and Randy Orton before heading towards multiple Championship reigns.  ‘The Rated-R Superstar’ won the World Heavyweight Championship a record 7 times and is widely recognized as the face of the title which does not exist in WWE today. He also held the WWE Championship and Tag team Championships multiple times with Randy Orton and Christian.  Edge competed in a number of legendary matches and was no stranger to hardcore. He fought against the best names in the business such as Mick Foley, The Hardy Boys, The Undertaker, Randy Orton, and John Cena, all of which were known to take things over the limit.  Retirement He often performed the most dangerous moves and stunts. The Superstar was known for giving his body to the ring for entertainment, a feature that ultimately took its toll on him. After years of taking hits to his back, Edge finally pulled his last straw. In 2011, shortly after his victory at WrestleMania against Alberto Del Rio, ‘The Rated-R Superstar’ underwent a medical scan.  He then received the news that he had spinal stenosis due to the hits he took throughout his career. He was also given the sad news that if he wrestled again, he risked paralysis or even death.  The neck injury sustained during the WrestleMania fight proved to be the decisive point in his career. In an emotional speech, Edge bid farewell to his fans and was forced into an uneasy early retirement.  Also read: The True Story Behind WWE Legend Edge’s Career Threatening Neck Injury He was subsequently inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame in 2012 for his contributions to the wrestling world.

<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Roman Reigns: 2024 Net Worth, Stats, Salary, Wife and More</strong></h2>
Roman Reigns is one of the biggest faces to emerge from WWE in the past few years. H<span style="font-weight: 400">e is the current and the longest reigning Undisputed WWE Universal champion and is notorious for leading one of wrestling's most storied families called The Bloodline. </span>Despite receiving mixed fan reviews, the wrestler is considered a favorite of Vince McMahon. As a result, he is one of the most heavily pushed stars in the company. Roman has wrestling running in his family, with his father Sika Anoa'i, and late brother Rosey being former wrestlers. His cousins Umaga, Yokozuna, Rikishi, and <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/the-rock/">Dwayne Johnson</a> were all prominent wrestlers in the company.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Roman Reignsâ€™ Early Life</strong></h2>
Roman Reigns, whose actual name is Leati Joseph Anoa'i, was born on May 25, 1985, in Pensacola, Florida to Leati â€˜Sikaâ€™ AnoaÊ»i and Patricia Anoa'i. Reigns' father lived in the Leone village of American Samoa before moving to San Fransisco, California while his mother hails from Italy. He has three sisters named Vanessa, Myritza, and Summer while his elder brother Matthew Tapunu'u AnoaÊ»i aka Rosey died in April 2017.

Speaking of his education, the wrestler went to Pensacola Catholic High School followed by Escambia High School. He also studied at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2007.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Roman Reignsâ€™ wife and children</strong></h2>
Roman Reigns has been happily married to Galina Becker since 2014 and they are proud parents of five children. The couple met each other in 2007 at the Georgia Institute of Technology and have been going strong since then. Reigns and Becker welcomed their daughter Joelle in December 2007 and they became parents to twin sons in 2016. In 2020, Galina gave birth to another set of twins.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Roman Reigns Net Worth 2024</strong></h2>
Reigns is one of the highest-paid wrestlers in WWE. According to Sports World News, the Samoan superstar has a net worth of $20 million.Â  His salary with the WWE touches $5 million annually. However, after additional perks and bonuses, it goes up quite a lot. This is not his only source of income, as he also acts in movies and has cash-rich endorsements.

Reigns earns a good amount of money by selling merchandise while he has also enjoyed endorsement deals with big brands like Pepsi, Mountain Dew, and Nike.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Roman Reignsâ€™ Career Timeline</strong></h2>
Roman didn't immediately take a liking to professional wrestling. Formerly, he was a professional football player, representing Minnesota Vikings and Jacksonville Jaguars in the National Football League in 2007. Notably, the Pensacola native was <span style="font-weight: 400">released by both football teams without having played in any regular season games.Â </span>

He later moved to professional wrestling in July 2010. Roman debuted as Roman Leakee in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), but the Superstar would make his main roster debut in the year 2012 as a part of The Shield, one of the most successful stables in the company's history. After the group split in 2014, Roman was quickly pushed as the face of the company and as a successor to John Cena.

However, his momentum got an enormous setback when the WWE star was diagnosed with Leukemia in the year 2018. His champion spirit would push him to make a comeback which has led him to his current status in the company. Reigns returned to WWE at SummerSlam 2020, months after preferring to stay out of in-ring action due to safety concerns during the pandemic. He introduced his heel character for the first time and received a huge reception from virtual fans.

He is the current and the longest reigning Undisputed WWE Universal champion and is notorious for leading one of wrestling&#8217;s most storied families called The Bloodline. Despite receiving mixed fan reviews, the wrestler is considered a favorite of Vince McMahon. As a result, he is one of the most heavily pushed stars in the company. Roman has wrestling running in his family, with his father Sika Anoa&#8217;i, and late brother Rosey being former wrestlers. His cousins Umaga, Yokozuna, Rikishi, and Dwayne Johnson were all prominent wrestlers in the company. Roman Reignsâ€™ Early Life Roman Reigns, whose actual name is Leati Joseph Anoa&#8217;i, was born on May 25, 1985, in Pensacola, Florida to Leati â€˜Sikaâ€™ AnoaÊ»i and Patricia Anoa&#8217;i. Reigns&#8217; father lived in the Leone village of American Samoa before moving to San Fransisco, California while his mother hails from Italy.

Roman Reignsâ€™ Career Timeline Roman didn&#8217;t immediately take a liking to professional wrestling.

Roman debuted as Roman Leakee in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), but the Superstar would make his main roster debut in the year 2012 as a part of The Shield, one of the most successful stables in the company&#8217;s history. After the group split in 2014, Roman was quickly pushed as the face of the company and as a successor to John Cena. However, his momentum got an enormous setback when the WWE star was diagnosed with Leukemia in the year 2018. His champion spirit would push him to make a comeback which has led him to his current status in the company.
