WWE Championship Triple Threat Match: Drew McIntyre (c) vs. Sheamus vs. Keith Lee

In the semi-main event of WrestleMania 37 Night One, we have a triple threat that’s already been bubbling for weeks. In reality, the roots of this go back years as McIntyre and Sheamus are longtime friends, but Keith Lee is the newest part of the equation.

While we haven’t seen Lee in a few weeks, likely because his partner Mia Yim tested positive for COVID-19, hopefully, he’ll be back soon and ready to dive back into the mix. McIntyre and Sheamus appear on a collision course for Elimination Chamber 2021, perhaps even with a rematch at Fastlane 2021.

That could leave Keith Lee trying to earn an opportunity at WrestleMania, perhaps even by winning an Elimination Chamber Match. Of course, Sheamus being Sheamus would likely find a way to wedge himself back into the fray and get one last shot at his former friend along with Keith Lee in what could be an instant classic at WWE WrestleMania 37.

WrestleMania 37 Night One Main Event for the SmackDown Women’s Championship: Sasha Banks (c) vs. Bianca Belair vs. Bayley

Finally, that leaves us the rightful main event of WrestleMania 37 Night One. Last Sunday at the Royal Rumble, we saw a star-making moment as 31-year-old Bianca Belair become the first Black woman to win the Royal Rumble and punch her ticket to WrestleMania 37 less than five years after signing with WWE and joining the world of professional wrestling.

While she has the option to challenge either champion, it makes sense for the SmackDown superstar to turn her attention to “The Boss” Sasha Banks and the SmackDown Women’s Championship. Of course, there’s no way Bayley would let this go without doing everything in her power to get back at both Belair and her former friend Banks at the same time.

On top of their tension in recent weeks on SmackDown, Belair eliminated Bayley from the 2021 Women’s Royal Rumble. Sasha Banks has successfully defeated Carmella enough to vanquish that threat for the time being, and that could set the stage for this history-making WrestleMania main event featuring three women of color in what I can only imagine would be a match for the ages.
