'WrestleMania' 35: Welcome to Bleeding Cool's Live-Blog Experience!
Welcome to Bleeding Cool's live-blog of WrestleMania 35 – as the WWE's annual professional wrestling tradition comes crashing into MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, like someone who hasn't slept in three days driving a rental they paid the extra insurance for. We're here to offer you our perspective on the good, the bad, the bizarre, the head-scratchers, and the two scoops of unexpected goodnes – just what you'd expect from John Oliver's bestest buddy Vince McMahon's pride and joy (sorry, Steph and Shane).
Our coverage begins at 5 p.m. ET with the Kickoff Show and then smoothly transitions to the Main Card starting at 7 p.m. ET. Our live-blog site will go live over at our main website, just before the Kickoff Show and for the next 37 hours and 43 matches – and we'll also have some posts going out over Twitter at @BleedingCoolTV.
