Jesus you people never cease to surprise me...bitch bitch bitch every single year. Do you ever enjoy anything? Just because your favorite lost or one match was boring doesn't mean the entire event sucks. Every match and every show can't be the best of all time. Did they have the best show they could have had with the card they had? Yes. I think so. You people set such high expectations. Every show you expect it to be the show of all shows. |

That was definitely the worst WM I've ever seen. I've never been so disappointed.

I really liked Wrestlemania this year. I thought it had some solid matches, and the gimmicky matches gave it the old Wrestlemania feel in my opinion. Biggest problem I had with it was that they hyped up the US title match on tv, but the match didn't happen on the ppv.
Edge vs Del Rio- Only thing i disliked about this was that it was the first match lol. the WHC is a joke now unfortunately. Solid match overall. Thought Del Rio looked real good.
Cody vs Rey- Wow....what a match. One of, if not THE best match on the card. was totally caught off guard that Cody won! Superb match.
Big Show's team vs The Corre- Awful squash match. I'm amazed that they let their tag champs and intercontinental champ lose within like 2 minutes. What a joke...moving on
CM Punk vs Orton- Good solid wrestling match. Decent back and forth action. Not surprised with the outcome. I love CM Punk's matches in general so obviously I will praise the heck out of this.
Lawler vs Cole- Not a good match, but it wasn't supposed to be. Cole is an announcer, not a wrestler. This was mainly here to let King get his revenge on Cole for being a douche. toss in some Stone Cold Stunners and it makes it all worthwhile.
Undertaker vs Triple H- I honestly didn't know who would win this match. It was actually really really good IMO and had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. Only complaint is that I hate the Undertaker's submission hold. good match.
Morrison, Trish, Snooki vs Ziggler, and Laycool- didn't expect much out of this one, so I wasn't too disappointed. not sure why it was so high up on the card though. Snooki's handspring was pretty cool though. didn't know she had it in her lol.
Miz vs Cena- decent match. not great, but not horrible. Figured the Rock would come out and screw Cena over so no surprise for me there. I love the Miz and for them to put him over Cena (with Rock's help or not) is a big big accomplishment for him.
Not too bad of a show. I really enjoyed it.

Is anybody else disappointed in the mixed 6 man tag and the 8 man tag? People like Kane, Santino, Big Show, Kingston, The Corre, Morrison, and Ziggler only hit one move in their match. All this talent was put in a 15 minute time spot and Sheamus and Bryan got demoted to dark match. Cole vs. Lawler went way too long to have a stupid ending. Taker/HHH, Rhodes/Rey, and Miz/Cena made WM good.

I agree 100% man. I want to come on here and talk to people who love to watch WWE as much as I do. Instead it's constant complaining over every little thing. They act like all WWE does is make them absolutely miserable, yet they continue to watch. And shove nothing but negativity down the throats of those that enjoy it. Even if Vince called them and did exactly what they wanted, they'd bitch because it was predictable. Predictability in wrestling is a good thing. Helps the crowds and helps the fans get into the matches. Sure you can have a few surprises here and there, but generally KNOWING whats going to happen in a match is great. I knew Undertaker would win, but I also knew the match wouldn't totally suck either. Those guys usually put on good ones. It wasn't as good as the past 2 WM Undertaker matches, but it was alright. The crowd was really into it, and I enjoyed the psychology aspect. |

I respect your opinion and everything guy, since I see you on this forum and everything, but what happened to opinions, guy? Sure, I've only seen a small handful of WMs in their entirety in the 21 years of my existence, but the show tonight was terrible. Only one real noteworthy match (as good as Rhodes/Rey were, will anyone remember it in a year?), and a way overbooked and just lame finish (especially for WM, imo.). I dunno, man. I hate to be that guy, but in this point you really seem incredulous to the idea of anyone disliking the show, which is silly. First of all, sorry to come off as such a tool. This thread really set me off. I came here after discussing the duration of the show with intelligent fans who know how to share an opinion as to why or why they didn't like the show. Then I come here to see the SAME PEOPLE crapping on Wrestlemania like they do every thing that happens. It's sickening. I'm definitely not opposed to anyone not caring for this show. But to claim it was the worst Mania and that it was awful is, in my opinion, ridiculous. There were redeeming parts of this show. thing is, i voice my opinion but with reasoning. i posted what i thought was bad and posted what i thought was good. no one has tried to refute what i've said directly. i do not crapon everything WWE does. it is only coincidence that this Mania was booked so poorly. Mania was downright silly this year and i really wish it wasn't. |

Oh, should I have asked you what I thought first? Sorry, sir. You know what "5 stars" matches look like don't you? If this PPV had one it would be amazing....but 3!?!? The earth would implode. Yeah I'm sorry I enjoyed those matches. I should have know better. My bad.  |

I am so damn dissappointed. I can't believe they took off that match and actually had Cole/Lawler instead...Wow...Smart booking there...  Who is your current favorite in the WWE? Let's knock HHH and Taker out of contention. Besides those two, who is your favorite? |

It wasn't the best WM ever but it was an entertaining show. I don't know what people expect. If you don't enjoy WM I don't see how you are a wrestling fan bc this is about as good as it gets. All the negative over reaction is so ridiculous. Half the people who didn't like it probably didn't see it live or watched some bad net feed. |

Cole/Lawler was one of the most hyped matches on the entire card. I'm pissed the US title match got canned too, but they'd be nuts to move Cole/Lawler to before the show after months and months of this rivalry building. |

I haven't seen every Wrestlemania, but I found tonight to be a REAL bummer. It just seems like there are a bunch of people who think that no one has the right to dislike it, which I think is dislike. As is the hot button topic, I'm also REALLY pissed Sheamus/Danielson got bumped. Admittedly, I'm not the biggest of these two in a match, despite Danielson being my favorite wrestler. Maybe them being bumped put a sour taste in my mouth, maybe not. Either way, I'm juts bummed. I didn't have grand expectations, I was just bummed. I try to not endlessly bitch about OH THIS SHOW SUCKS, but I try and at least be reasonable with my distaste. |

Edge/ADR was a fun opener, although that really shouldn't be the purpose of a world title match I enjoyed it.
I loved Cod/Rey
The Corre match was lame
Orton/Punk was meh
The finish of Cole/Lawler should have been the whole match, perfect payoff
Taker/HHH was a great brawl with a slow dramatic ending. I loved it, but people were expecting it to be the same as Taker/HBK. Which it never should have been.
At least Snooki didn't just do a Lou Thesz press and leave, and I think that match went for the right amount of time.
I loved Miz/Cena except for the finish, if you're going to do a ref bump anyway have Rock screw Cena then. I didn't care for the Rock taking out Miz but I'm interested to see what it sets up. Also Miz's entrance was one of my favorite moments in wrestling. Such an inspirational story, Miz is everything I love about wrestling.
Not my favorite Mania, nowhere near the worst.

But then of course they bitch for swerving them. |

Some people just complain to complain. I'm not exactly complaining, I'm just saying what I thought about the show. The last couple WrestleMania's were good, and I just thought this one fell short because of wasted time and bad placement/booking. |
