Initially, referee Rod Zapata gained heat for the finish among some backstage, but that quickly seemed dissipate. However, at Monday's WWE Raw, Zapata was pulled aside by Vince McMahon, who discussed the situation, and Zapata was subsequently fined for the main event finish ...

There was also said to be an incident during the Gable & Roode vs. Ricochet & Black match on Raw in which Dan Engler (formerly known as Rudy Charles) ended up getting fined. The spot was said to be a small one, but that Vince McMahon wanted to set an example ...

Ronda Rousey was said to "not be happy" as she returned from backstage. Whether or not that had to do with her hand or the finish is unclear.

According to the story, WrestleMania 37 will likely take place in Los Angeles Stadium in Inglewood, California, just outside of LA. The stadium is still under construction and is scheduled to open in 2020. It will be the home stadium of both the LA Rams and LA Chargers. Its capacity will be 80,240, but it will be expandable to 100,240.
