WWE announced via a statement on Monday that the two-night WrestleMania 36 event this past weekend set a new record for most social media interactions for a single WWE event in history. According to Nielsen Social, the event drew 13.8 million interactions via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, which is a 57% increase compared to last year's WrestleMania 35. Because of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, WWE had to move the event from Raymond James Stadium in Tampa to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, where it took place on a tape delay in front of no audience.

The highlights of the show included two cinematic matches in the Firefly Fun House Match between "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt and John Cena and the Boneyard Match between AJ Styles and The Undertaker. The event also saw numerous new champions be crowned, including WWE Champion Drew McIntyre, WWE Universal Champion Braun Strowman, NXT Women's Champion Charlotte Flair and WWE 24/7 Champion Rob Gronkowski.

This week's slate of WWE programming will include taped episodes of Monday Night Raw and NXT
