This year’s WrestleMania will be remembered forever, as it will hold the distinction of being the first WrestleMania headlined by a women’s match.
The match in question is, of course, the triple threat for the WWE Women’s Championship, with current champion Ronda Rousey defending against Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair.

Although it was almost expected that the women would go on last considering the prominence of the field, many were worried that Brock Lesnar would take the main event once again in his WWE Universal Title defence against Seth Rollins.
WWE announced the match earlier today, stating;
For the first time in WWE history, a women’s match will be the main event of WrestleMania as the Raw Women’s Championship Match featuring Ronda Rousey vs. Charlotte Flair vs. Becky Lynch will take place on Sunday, April 7, in front of a capacity crowd at MetLife Stadium and streaming live on WWE Network around the world.
