great Wrestlemania imo 8.5/10

[TE]

Was a 7/10. Could have been better if the tag team les were worth a . I actually liked the winners of all the matches (except the Andre the Giant Battle Royal and I'm impartial about the Taker/Wyatt result). That Rock and Rousey segment was ing gold idgaf what anybody says. WWE struck gold bringing Rousey in for that as she's currently the hottest thing going for Women's fighting.

1. Sting wasn't buried. That whole match was one big awesome cluster . It was like going rewinding time by fifteen years. Sting also looked good for 80% of the match. Good enough to bring back for maybe one more match...the match that we've been waiting for all these years: Taker vs Sting at Jerry World.

2. Cena winning that US le gives some (I hate to say it) attention and credibility to that le. Now he'll feud with mid-carders and not hog up all the main event spotlight.

3. Bryan winning the intercontinental le. Same as above.

4. Rollins winning gives us a full time champion while relegating Lesnar to possibly feud with other big name part timers. One thing will be made about that match: Lesnar was never pinned.

5. Orton going over Rollins. Meh match but Orton needed to start winning some PPV matches to build himself up for other possible feuds. Please, go away boring stale Authority angle.

6. You could see it both ways for the Wyatt/Taker result. Wyatt has been buried so many times in his short career, I dunno how where he'll go from here. His wannabe mystique promos have grown stale, they're too of the try-hard element. Taker winning somewhat gets him back on track to wresle again. He actually looked better than last year. He noticeably bulked up.

The main thing I have a problem with going forward is the light factor. What the ? Only the last match got only a slight amount of proper darkness. Hopefully next year, in Jerry's world, they fix that up. Keep that roof closed.

People BET on wrestling????????????????????????

wrestlemania

Mizdow should have won the battle royal, seriously guy made gold out of booking and should have had it come to a head with a victory at mania
Tag les, didn't give a
Intercontinental le was meh, for a ladder match it probably could have been better, alot of those guys have the capability to be the future. I don't know if they mentioned it but with that win bryan gets the grand slam
Orton/Rollins match had the spot of the night no doubt
Sting/HHH garbage match with corny ass entrance, the run ins were nice, but just pointed to vince rubbing salt in the would of wcw.
Divas match- if you give a about the divas you're an idiot
Cena/Rusev- second straight year cena gets fed a powerhouse new guy. Look for rusev to lose the next months and him to be out on his ass in 7 months
Rock Haitch segment, smart booking but if hhh is gonna face the rock why did he need to beat sting he's just gonna lose to the rock
UT/Wyatt match was meh
Lesnar vs reigns- congrats to roman for someone telling the higher ups his win would result in bad news, the crowd was ready to crucify his ass. ending and here's why what they did was turn the main event to a triple threat to cover up their mania up. Which is what they did last year, didn't learn their lesson and still ed up.

You should stop watching WWE. You're one of those fans that will never be happy no matter what WWE does. This was a great WM.

Why? Cause of who walked out as champ? Need I remind you who walked out as champ last year? And is now a midcard champion after losing almost all of his big matches

[hehateme]

So who wins the bet when neither of the people slated with the odds wins?

[DJR210]

I am extremely critical of WWE, and I think this was a pretty damn solid event tbh..

Pros:

-The usual top notch entrances for a lot of the guys
-Disgusting bump for Ambrose out on the ladder
-The majority of matches were entertaining and felt fresh
-Cesaro and Kidd continue to win
-The stupid ass beating of the apron from The New Day finally backfired into a 'New Day Sucks' chant
-Extra loud John Cena sucks chants
-DX vs nWo 15 years in the making
-Brock vs Reigns deciding to beat the out of each other to hide the fact that neither one is a very good wrestler was brilliant. What better way to have Reigns earn his hand picked spot than to have him decimated a few times to earn some stripes?
-Rollins finally cashing in the MITB was well placed

Cons

-Who was the dumbass that decided the event should start at ing 3 PM on the west coast? The set looked bland until the main event
- ing Big Show?? Really??
-My boy Hideo Itami looked like a huge pussy, could have at least let him showcase a few moves and get some of the more casuals familiar w/ him before he debuts
-John Cena stops momentum for Rusev
-Not a very special entrance for Sting or Undertaker
-Would have preferred if the triple threat would have carried on for a while before allowing Rollins to get the win

All in all, great show. Tonight's Raw is gonna be good, hopefully a couple NXT guys (and girl) make their debut tonight.

Reminds me of those IWC people found at the wrestling forum's tbh. At the end of the day, this was a great Wrestlemania given everything that had to be done. I'm over the fact that Cena has been put over countless times. Regardless, look at who he's been put over the last two years (which most people seem to be ing about):

1.) Bray Wyatt. Blah wrestler, decent in ring ability for his size, try-hard on the mic that's had his character fizzle out. He's no face of fear, much less the "new" face of fear. There will always be one and only one.

2.) Rusev. Supermega wrestler with a foreign heel schtick. Overdone already. His I hate America mic skills grew stale as . He's not much of anything outaide of his brute strength in the ring.

And why do you think that is? Do you think it's a wise decision to put the belt on someone who could be forced to retire 2 months from now? Also, if you really believe that either Bryan or Cena is midcard talent then you're a damn idiot.

There's still fans stuck in the at ude era, and wreck is one of those. Wrestling has changed...sure there have been creative mistakes, lots of them actually (I've been critical about them during the year), but Mania was about as good as t could be minus the sunlight.

Neville is a ing beast...holy

You completely missed the point of my post we got the exact same situation as last year which means we'll probably just sit through another year of crap cause nothing leads me to believe they learned from their mistakes of last year. They're not midcard talents but they have midcard belts I doubt Cena carries the us le for more than 2 ppvs

What are they then? Are they exclusively main eventers? If you answer the way your posts sounds, that's a saturation we're talking about. Talent needs to be distributed evenly throughout the cards. Besides, the crowd wouldn't accept Cena as another main eventer unless he turned heel (the crowd would ironically root for him provided he pissed off and says the right ). Bryan is the most over wrestler right now that's strictly a face. I could understand an argument for having him main event Mania with Lesnar but it just wasn't meant to be...especially considering the fact that he came back a few months ago. Can't always give the crowd what it wants. Reigns taking an ass whooping like that will get him semiover, what he does with that is up to him. He can go up but he can go crashing down.

[TE]

That Cena/Ambrose match was pretty darn good. Not gonna lie. Cena actually wrestled, and he's on a role since he showed that in his Mania match. Not bad.

[TE]

, I thought we'd get a Sting or Taker segment...at least one, c'mon only thirty more mins left. Make it happen Vince.

[TE]

Oh seriously Goldust and recently buried Rusev?

[TE]

Holy cmon Taker please come out

[TE]

Well, Lawler, the crowd, Sting & Taker, the entire ing WWE universe knows what's next.

[Avante]

??

It did think Reigns would win the le but lose it to Rollins because he was so beat up he couldn't defend himself. I talked about this already. It pretty much went like I said it would.

You do know that Reigns will be the champ, right? He's where it's all going;

[Avante]

A few things about Wrestlemania.

JBL, a 15 time WORLD CHAMPION doesn't give a about the US le...ok

It really is time to let The Understaker R.I.P. The guy can't work anymore, and it's real obvious.

We saw....

Bruno Sammartino
Larry Zbysko
Shawn Michaels
The Rock
Kevin Nash
Ricky Steamboat
Pat Patterson
Ric Flair
Scott Hall
Roddy Piper
Brett Hart
Hulk Hogan
Sting
Triple H

The only ones missing...Edge, Steve Austin and Jericho

Not bad.

Having Rusav pull up in a tank and Cena just being Cena sucked. He should have at least came down with Sgt Slaughter waving a flag or something.

The Rhonda Rousey bit a bit too much.

The Lesnar vs Reigns match was weak, too much one sided early and late.

While it went just like I knew it would, it was pretty good and well worth the time. I can't say $$$$ because it cost me..0.

[hehateme]

Enjoyed the sparse commentating tonight after all three got destroyed. It definitely lets the matches work themselves without bs talking. Also enjoyed Neville and Kalisto. They really need to bring back a cruiser weight le...

[DJR210]

Neville is a ing beast...holy

Look up some of his Japanese matches..he's a ing major star there

[DJR210]

Raw was great tonight..the only thing I didn't like was more Kane and Big Show in the main event spotlight, but overall great show..

The Lucha Dragons are ing over, Kalisto is here to take the Rey Mysterio role two weeks after his release.. I'm glad they brought in Neville as well. Charlotte should be coming in to add a solid wrestler to the Divas division.

This gives the spotlight in NXT to Owens, Balor, and Itami. They will build up their characters over the next year, but I don't expect WWE to wait until next WM to debut them.

props to WWE for a solid start to the new season

[21209]

It's actually pretty sad that the US and Intercontinental les seem more prestigious at the moment than the World le.
