WWE Wrestlemania 38 2022 Night 2 Highlights and Results: Roman Reigns emerged victorious in winner take all match while Edge defeated AJ Styles. (wwe.com)WWE WrestleMania 38 2022, Night 2 Highlights and Results Online: After the exhilarating high of Night 1 of WrestleMania which saw the in-ring return of the Texas Rattlesnake Stone Cold Steve Austin and the homecoming of former AEW talent Cody Rhodes, all eyes were on Night 2 of WWE’s version of the Superbowl. Head of the Table – Roman Reigns beat Brock Lesnar in the main event with their ‘Winner Takes All’ match, with the Universal Championship and WWE Championship both at stake.
The undefeated Omos was looking for a challenge at WrestleMania 38, and he got one in the form of Bobby Lashley. The All Mighty was indeed powerful enough to give the Colossus his first singles loss. In another epic encounter, it was Edge who emerged victorious against AJ Styles. However, what was most interesting was the end where Damien Priest appeared out of nowhere to distract Styles and signal the build-up of a dark faction.

So that was quite a sudden ending, a bit anticlimactic and a tad bit disappointing but not surprising. WWE Universe was left wanting more. We definitely thought we’d get more out of the main event but at least we got a legit finish (some held out that it wouldn’t happen). Now starts the countdown to when the titles get split again!
Lesnar locks in the Kimura! Reigns tells Heyman his shoulder is disconnected! But he somehow gets up and hits Lesnar with a powerful Spear! The Tribal Chief gets the three count! ROMAN REIGNS IS THE UNDISPUTED WWE UNIVERSAL CHAMPION!
As Lesnar attempts another F5, Reigns counters with a rake in the eyes and pushes the beast on the referee who goes down. Taking advantage, Reigns comes up with a low blow and a superman punch with the title belt but only gets a two count.
Lesnar hits the F5 but the Universal Champion kicks out.
FIVE german suplexes to Reigns and Lesnar is back and smiling. Brock is such a beast. There's legit no easy route to victory.
Right, so the intros are done Paul Heyman introduces Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar introduces himself by taking the mic off the presenter. And Brock goes right into the mid-section of Reigns. The power of Lesnar driving Reigns into the corner. Lesnar imposes his will on the head of the table.
The Beast walks out and seems in quite a good mood! This has a big fight feel now! Lets goooooooooooooooo
Roman Reigns walks out, flanked by Paul Heyman and SmackDown Tag Team Champions The Usos.
NOW ITS TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT
Stone Cold and Vince have a drink and Stone Cold stuns Vince even if it was botched
Vince’s face when stone colds music hit, is priceless.
Vince McMahon has beaten Pat Mcafee at Wrestlemania with the interference from Theory! But wait a min! Just as the two were celebrating! shattering glasss ! STONE COLD ! STONE COLD ! STONE COLD ! He is here .... And what a stunner to Austin Theory!
After McAfee taunts Mr McMahon, who was leaving the arena with Theory, the WWE Chairman has seemingly accepted the challenge! What is even happening!
Theory tried to deliver his finisher but McAfee countered with a Small Package. The roof is going to blow off AT&T stadium. Pat McAfee WINS!!!
The crowd is chanting the Seven Nations Army song. McAfee with a running elbow to Theory who lands on the commentators' desk. After a thorough beating, he pushes Theory into the ring. But wait a minute, what is going on! This WrestleMania is something crazy and funny! And Pat McAfee is going all out! He goes for the swanton, but misses.. so close! The crowd once again goes nuts with the Seven Nations Army song!
So we are back with live-action and Mr McMahon introduces Theory as a "future WWE Universal Champion". This will raise a lot of eyebrows on social media for sure. And then comes McAfee with Seven Nations Army soundtrack and the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders! Quite an entrance again
"I wasn't prepared for this level of emotion. I need to speak to a manager about having to say goodbye to Hunter and Taker on the same night," says Lindsey on social media. Surely it's been an emotional weekend for pro-wrestling fans.
An Instant Classic, a great fight Edge vs. AJ Styles gave us, at the end of the fight Damian Priest appeared and joined Edge. Is a dark Tag Team coming between these two? Good bit of storytelling here!
Edge knows a thing or two about heel stables !
Damian Priest appears out of nowhere and that distracts Styles. However, he goes for the Phenomenal Forearm and Edge catches him with a Spear in MIDAIR! Anddd Edge's stable begins to form... Starting with Damian Priest.
Styles connects with the Styles Clash! But Edge kicks out at two and a half!
Edge in control again with the Edgecution! Then Styles connects the Pele Kick and then goes for the Calf Crusher. But Edge counters again. Edge & AJ Styles with some absolutely flawless transitional chain wrestling & grappling
Edge with the presence of mind to catch Styles off-guard and the shoulder of Styles which led to The Phenomenal One separating his shoulder at the Royal Rumble two years ago is in danger. Edge now targets the shoulder
Edge now has the fourth most matches for an inducted member of the WWE Hall of Fame, competing in WWE after going into the Hall. The only legends ahead of him on the list are Jerry Lawler, Kurt Angle, and Pat Patterson. Meanwhile, it is a partisan crowd with one half rooting for 'AJ Styles' and the other half chanting with 'Let's go Edge'
I love this entrance music, and this was one of the best entrances I’ve seen with those dark wings. That was AWESOME. The Dark Angel, the Rated R superstar. EDGE

This Edge looks unreal. WOW! This Entrance, the gear .... Dark Prince Edge might be best Edge
Now it's time for the potential match of the night -- Edge vs Aj Styles
Sasha and Naomi are the new women's tag team champions!!!!!! Finally, Banks has a Mania win
Double Tower of Doom in the Women's Tag Team Championship match! It’s really a testament to these women that despite almost all of them having been teams for mere weeks, they’re working together and pulling out tag team moves
Women's 4-way tag match is up now! My prediction is that Sasha & Naomi wins it and become new women's tag team champs!
Bobby Lashley follows up with a Spear and PINS Omos! The Almighty Bobby Lashley wins. It's Omos' first-ever loss since he arrived on the main roster. It's a HUGE win for Lashley!
Bobby Lashley tried to do a crossbody, but Omos caught him like he was a featherweight. It could be a formality at this point of the end of The Almighty. #WrestleMania38
The All-Mighty is huge, but the Nigerian is such a giant and now it starts with Omos smashing Lashley with just one shot!
Randy Orton hits the RKO on Chad Gable and picks up the win and with that RK-Bro def. Alpha Academy and The Street Profits
