Former UFC champion Rousey took on Charlotte Flair and Becky Lynch in a winner takes all triple threat match for the WWE Raw and WWE SmackDown Women’s Championships, while Brock Lesnar defended his WWE Universal Championship against Seth Rollins.
Here's how it all played out:

BREAKING: BECKY LYNCH WINS RAW & SMACKDOWN WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIPS
It's a curious ending. Out of nowhere, Rousey nails a Piper's Pit on Lynch who reverses her pin attempt and rolls her up for a three count!
Rousey seemed to be protesting about the pinfall, almost to suggest a shoulder was up.
It seems as though WWE will go down the route of Rousey stating she was wronged at the conclusion of this match and blame some type of controversy. That would protect her moving forward, but history will note Lynch's victory, and it's the ending many in New Jersey wanted.
That's it from New Jersey.
Who'd have thought we'd see all three of Seth Rollins, Kofi Kingston and Becky Lynch all get their happy endings?
Proof if you needed it that we can, sometimes, have nice things!
After more than seven-and-a-half hours, that's it from me. Thanks for joining me for live coverage of a great Wrestlemania.
