Beginning with a historic match between Drew McIntyre and Seth Rollins for the World Heavyweight Championship, WrestleMania 40 on Sunday was an incredible event for the WWE Universe. While they were fighting, CM Punk was a guest analyst.
In the first match of WrestleMania 40, Drew McIntyre triumphed over Seth Rollins to win the World Heavyweight Championship.

However, McIntyre’s emphasis on communicating with CM Punk ultimately proved to be his undoing as Damian Priest cashed in on his Money in the Bank contract, ending McIntyre’s dominance in a matter of five minutes.
Even though his tenure as champion was short-lived, McIntyre made history in the WWE by pulling off an uncommon achievement.
He now stands alongside wrestling greats like The Undertaker, John Cena, Brock Lesnar, and Seth Rollins, who has won two different world titles at WrestleMania, thanks to his triumph over Rollins at WrestleMania 40.
McIntyre’s quick title loss was probably influenced by his recent rivalry with CM Punk. Although the Scottish Warrior’s future plans are unknown, it is expected that he will feud with CM Punk after the latter returns from injury.
