A look at the matches and results in Night Two of WrestleMania 42.

Oba Femi defeated Brock Lesnar

This was the past big thing meeting the future big thing. A pair of absolute physical freaks opened the card as Brock Lesnar faced Oba Femi. There were German suplexes applied by Lesnar to his younger opponent. In the end, and it was the end apparently in more ways than one, Femi put a chokeslam on Lesnar and finished the former champ off with a sit-out powerbom.

After the match, Lesnar took off his gloves and boots and left them in the ring, signifying the end of his wrestling career. Is it true or a swerve? Only time will tell.

Ladder match: Intercontinental Champion Penta retains

Trick Williams defeats Sami Zayn to win United States Championship

Williams made a spectacular entrance as he robe continued to unfurl the length of the runway into the ring. The crowd was behind Williams and booed Zayn throughout.

However, this was to be Balor's day as he placed Mysterio on a table, hit his patented Coup de Grace driving his opponent through it before pinning him.

Rhea Ripley defeated Jade Cargill to win WWE Women's Championship

Some levity during the card saw Rob Gronkowski and San Francisco 49ers TE George Kittle, both big WWE fans, have a chug off.

Back to the WrestleMania card. Despite help from others, Jade Cargill was unable to handle Rhea Ripley. The crowd was super-pumped for Ripley's title win. She's absolute rock star, whether with a belt. However, it was time for her to reign again and she hit Rip-tide on Cargill, ending her evening and time with the championship. The finishing segment looked, um, clumsy at best.
