heres my grades for this wm.

IC ladder match - 7/10
Y2J v AJ - 5/10
New Day v LoN - 4/10
Ambrose v Lesnar - 3/10
Triple Threat - 8/10
Taker v Shane - 7/10
Reigns v HHH - 3/10

To sum this wm up, disappointing and largely pointless. too much part timers/retired wrestlers taking the spotlight away from full time superstars. Disappointing matches everywhere especially the so called street fight.
No blood and intensity during it hurt it immensly. Y2J and AJ suffered from poor booking ... imo AJ should have won. LoN v New Day wasn't bad of a match but they were killed by returning wrestlers. And the main event, predictably, wasn't good. It says a lot when Stephanie was the best part about it.
Only redeeming three matches were ladder, triple threat and taker shane. Ladder match had an interesting winner, didn't think ryder was gonna win it since he was so irrelevant up till now. Triple threat imo was the MotN, and couldve been better if not for the ending and some rough spots. And thank goodness they brought back the women's title. Taker v Shane started off very slow, but it picked up in the end, and I don't mind the ending at all. Major props to both of these guys.

I ususally don't complain about the product that much, but this was Wrestlemania, and WWE failed to step up where they needed to the most. The booking was sloppy and largely unsatisfying. the wrestling was decent overall, but some of the highly anticipated matches i.e lesnar v ambrose did not live up to the hype.

4/10 WM. and thats being generous. Also it went for wayy too long.
K I'm out. Maybe the Raw tommorow will be better.

THIS JUST MAKES IT SEEMS LIKE NO ONE CARES WWE ARE SO STUPID they done it when he won as well.

top 3 worst mania.

"This show was booked by someone who thought that people loved Roman Reigns.
It's the only concieveable explanation. They opened the show with an underdog fan favorite winning, but then had more and more heels get wins. But it would all work out in the end, because the crowd would get to see their guy, Roman Reigns, FINALLY win the big one on the biggest stage of them all. And everyone would go home happy.
Delusional. Delusional. Delusional."

Very poor Wrestlemania.

I liked the Saiyan Armor entrance, New Day rocked in those. Triple Threat was probably match of the night despite the result.

It's official, Wyatts are forever going to be jobbers. You know you're buried when The Rock beats you in 6 seconds and Cena/Rock take out your stable easily. To think Wyatts had an amazing feud with The Shield and are now reduced to a circus act.

Raw after Mania should be interesting.

Classic WWE lying about attendance.

Their constant crowd muting is just gonna hurt Reigns more.

Like was WM for their network series Swerved and the real WM is at Raw?

just got back.....very meh mania shane vs taker delivered and Ryder winning was nice (assuming zayn ad owens are moving on to bigger things because they're to good to be in the midcard) getting a bit bored with lesnar time to put someone over isnt it? bit bemused by the decision t have league of nations win and Jericho to win I love the rock but having him bury the wyatts even more isnt helpful.....triple H vs roman was terrible sorry wwe please take note of the crowd reactions for Roman not an awful mania for me but not a particularly good one either

I really liked the show, fuck me right!? :P

-Kailsto won, meh no one gives a fuck 1.5/5

-Team total divas won! 3/5



That was nice! Brie deserved to shine tonight.



-Uso's won, not bad the table spot was nice. 2/5

-Ryder won????? WTF!?!?!?! I wanted Sami to win but I'm not disappointed at all. Good match, 3.5/5

-AJ vs Jericho might have had their worst match, shocked to Jericho win, I don't know who thought of that but it was terrible decision. 1.5/5

New Day vs LON- You know a match sucked when 3 legends appearing after it is the best part of it. 2/5

Brock vs Dean- SO FUCKING DISAPPOINTING!!!!! So much potential leading to so much failure! They failed Dean as much as they failed Roman! What the fuck was the point of teasing all those weapons when you don't use them at all! 2.5/5

Charlotte vs Becky vs Sasha - I wanted Becky to win soo bad, but I have nothing bad to say about this match, my 2nd favorite match of the night 4/5

Taker vs Shane - So god damn emotional! I have undying respect for Shane and his performance! MOTN for me 4.5/5

Corbin won, cool whatever 2/5

I marked the fuck out when I heard Cena's music! My favorite moment of the night was seeing Cena and Rocky team up again.

-Roman vs HHH - Roman doesn't get a special entrance!?!?! Fuck you Vince! The match itself was really good because no matter any of you or anyone in the crowd wants to admit, you were invested so much in that match. It really was the main event, because everyone was paying attention to it and they cheering for someone. I loved when Steph got speared :P 3/5

Welcome to the Roman empire, you bitches!!!!!

not sure what happy pills you've been on tonight fella but it's incredibly difficult to get invested in a match where everyone in the stadium knows what the final outcome will be much like cena vs rock 2....reigns vs HHH was very poor had this match not gone on last perhaps it stood a chance but twas not to be

I wasn't cheering when HHH was winning I just wanted the shit match to end it was worse than Hunter's Orton match the only cool thing about the match was the spear through the barricade, I felt emptiness when Roman won because nothing happened afterwards no balor club not even a heel turn.

The only thing I got from that show was that Vince must of been smoking with Snoop Dogg when he was booking this WM everything was a mess even the result I am happy with in Ryder he was exclusively on Superstars and main event for 4 years I actually think he won for that snickers commercial like wtf.

Also the worst thing about this is again they tried to appeal to everyone they had all the attitude era stars go over but they properly hated it more than anyone.

^No way was it worse than HHH vs Orton, and what happened to the No DQ stipulation? I just realized that. They never mentioned it or try to use it (if it was even true.)

I understand the frustration that when he won nothing happened or changed, like I said, he needed to turn heel but yeah it seems Vince didn't want to pull the trigger. He's focused on making Roman "The man" but he's fucking it up so bad.

I'm not mad at all, just a little disappointed that he didn't turn heel.

I was hyped for it all, entrances, possible heel turn for Roman, and of course who would win, cause a little part of me thought HHH would win since it was the main event, and I wondered if Vince would have HHH win to make sure the show didn't end with boo's. He went with his gut and I ain't mad.

After the Ambrose and Shane loss it was quite clear HHH was losing, the most interesting thing about the match was the amount of times they muted the crowd the only cool spot was muted because the crowd were chanting Nxt.

It was an okay mania, some good matches, but terrible booking/finishes.

Please for the love of god wwe, stop burying talent. No reason for bray to be apart of that rock bit.

Was hopeful cesaro would come back and win the battle royal but w/e.

that main event was almost as bad as rock vs cena 2. roman does nothing for me, and i pray he gets some charisma or becomes amazing in the ring cause cena 2.0 for 10 more years, without any of the things that made cena bearable seems like a bleak future.

Oh maybe, maybe it's the clothes we wear
The tasteless bracelets and the dye in our hair
Or maybe, maybe it's our nowhere towns or our nothing places
But we're trash, you and me
We're the litter on the breeze
We're the lovers on the streets
Just trash, me and you
It's in everything we do

I seen it coming as soon as she got in the ring and they used on a dreadful match I wasn't caring about anything on the match unless a heel turn or Balor club plus it was an accident which was bullshit.

They also could of used it to put over someone like Becky or Paige since last time she won over Brie for no reason. I popped for the Kolo/Yaya Toure chant though.

Wow. WWE finally got their way. This would be so much better if Reigns could feed off the crowd's boos but I guess muting them works too.

A shitty straightforward one on one match between the eternal B+ Player Triple H and the babyface D- player Roman Reigns for the World Championship with Roman Reigns pinning him and having his Wrestlemania moment while muted boos can be heard in the background.

Sure the Rock/Cena shit ruined 3 Wrestlemania main events in a row but I had a tiny sliver of hope that they'd take notice of the fans considering at both Wrestlemania 30 and 31 they did eventually cave (Even if 31 was a swerve at the VERY last minute). But no, not this time. Vince just put his fingers in his ears and shouted 'La la la I can't hear you!' at the top of his lungs. Probably one of the worst Wrestlemania endings ever.

Unless completely devaluing the WWE title and finally killing off the sexist 'Diva' shit after all these years is part of a much bigger plan to put the Men's and Women's divisions on equal footing then this was a horrible idea.

On a much more positive note, Zack Ryder won! At Wrestlemania! In a match for the Intercontinental title! Even if he loses the title tomorrow night, I've been waiting so long for this moment. None of WWE's bullshit can rub this smile off my face.

That main event match between Triple H and Roman Reigns was pretty mediocre...

Either way, I think the Undertaker vs Shane McMcmahon match was good and the triple threat divas match (except for the ending) to be pretty good. The ladder match was fun as well. Grats to Zack Ryder.

Really disappointed by the No Barred Hold fight. I was expecting way more from Dean Ambrose.

Nice to see Shawn Michaels (in ring gear!), Mick Foley, and Stone Cold at the arena.

Also grats to Baron Corbin on winning the Andre the Battle Royale, he deserved that win.

I haven't seen most of the pre-show yet but honestly not really interested. Aj Styles vs. Chris Jericho was also a nice match although I really wish Aj won instead. I wonder if this is the end of their rivalry and he can finally move on to some other feud?

I'm excited for RAW tomorrow though especially because of the crowd and some new debuts.

Here's the thing, from a story perspective, we all knew this was the story they were telling. So I don't understand paying money to go see something that you know is going to happen, and then shitting all over it. And at this point, I feel the boos are kinda disingenuous. And it makes me feel bad for the guys involved(Reigns, H, Writers, ect), because at this point I feel that it's not that really that people are booing because what they are seeing is bad or even that Reigns is bad(he's objectively not bad at his job), it's that people are booing because the thing's that are happening to Roman Reigns aren't happening to their guy, whomever it may be. And to be frank, that is really shitty.

They haven't been telling much of a story with any of these horrible build-ups what we are seeing is bad basically every legend has been saying this (even Rock has been hinting hard that Roman needs a heel turn)I heard Jim Ross swear for the first time ever cause he was pissed about the whole Roman thing.

About H feeling bad I doubt that he is properly feeling great his Nxt event went great he's been playing to the crowds and their was multiple Nxt chants Hunter was properly loving it.

They caused this so I can't feel bad for them as well the only one I do is Roman's daughter and that's about it.

Altogether this WM just proved why we have no new stars excluding Punk and Bryan in the last 10 years.

But, Mania was a massive successed, We all sat and watched wrestlemania for what 8 hours? Then we went online and started talking about it and tweeting #roman #romanreigns #wrestlemania, ect. A ton of people. And the kids that were watching that at home and the mom's that buy all the merch, were not mad.

And all this hate from older fans, is only gonna make a possible heel turn far more potent. People are salivating for it. They are clamoring for it. So when it happens. When they finally give us what we want, it's gonna be great. The Daniel Bryan thing is a great example of this.

The booing and the hate all say more about the fans than it does about Roman. I think it's just a ton of people who think they should be directing the show and the only guys should be put over are the guys that they decided are stars when they first stepped foot in a gymnasium however long ago. And guess what, we are still getting those guys. We are gonna get big Owens-Zayn matches. And sure Styles lost, but he's gonna probably get a killer win at SummerSlam that everyone is gonna go ham for. The show goes on. Wrestlemania isn't for the smarks man. It's for the kids. And the kids went HAM. My nephew marked out harder than I've seen anyone ever mark out man.

Imagine how badly the IWC would be shitting on WM3 main event had it happened today instead of 30 years ago. The IWC would be furious and they would hate Hogan more than they ever ever ever hated Roman. But because the time it took place and the state of the fandom, it is one of the most iconic moments in wrestling.

Just relax man. The story is fine. The good guy beat the evil bad guys. The meta storyline is largely irrelevant to what they are showing on RAW. #KayfabeOnly

Gotta just accept that it didn't cater to you or you can watch wrestling that DOES cater to you. There were like 3 million wrestling shows happening over the weekend. There is a ginormous amount of wrestling to be watching. You didn't have to watch mania for 7 hours, when you had made up your mind prior that you were gonna shit on half of it.

Edit: And to my point about the crowd making up their mind before the match even started, there were couple times the crowd went crazy for Roman, only to remember that they were supposed to hate him and start booing again. What we are watching isn't bad. The problem is many of the fans are just too self-interested to care regardless of what they are being shown. Roman isn't the hero. They are the hero and Roman is an obstacle that they must overcome. Which is a very weird way to watch, imo.

> It's for the kids.

This is an excuse for a show being shit and kids are their lowest demographic a good show would appeal to everyone I wouldn't mind the results but the buildup or lack of build up(Dean vs Brock for example the only thing that happened was teasing for spots that they did not do) they have 5 hours of weekly tv and they couldn't build up any story line decently sans Woman title match.

Just look at Dwayne's segment fuck Dwayne completely ruined the Wyatts more this is why their is no stars New Day got treated like jobbers to Austin,HBK and Foley and they already lost to the league of jobbers and he only came out to announce a fake attendance number.

Roman winning isn't even my problem all the finishes were just baffling and this WM was like WM 13 without the Bret vs Austin.

>all this hate from older fans, is only gonna make a possible heel turn far more potent.

Not really it should of happened at least a year ago and unless it happens at Raw I will just skip his segments unless someone I really like is in them he can't talk he doesn't have charisma his booking is shite it's hard to care about him especially after hearing his interviews.

Plus Roman isn't even doing that well in Merchandise sales he is nowhere near Cena, and this is when Cena's merchandise sales have dropped a lot because of his push and being of TV a lot.

>big Owens-Zayn matches

I mean I don't really care for this match needs build-up and to tell a story which WWE aren't very good at I was glad it was a ladder match.

>sure Styles lost, but he's gonna probably get a killer win at SummerSlam

Dear Christ I hope the Y2J feud ends by Summerslam the match was itself was bad and just continued WWE's 50/50 booking on why no one gets over, and Styles lost the most important match AJ was reported to be the most over wrestler more than Ambrose and Reigns.

> shitting on WM3 main event

I don't think many would of Hogan has bags of charisma the only person who can top him in that is Rock, Roman really has none at least as a face and Hogan has pretty good psychology plus Roman's mannerisms are what a heel would do.

A better example would be WM 9 but I am pretty sure that was shitted on back then anyway.

>The good guy beat the evil bad guys

Since the Ryder match all heels won though Ambrose basically got squashed which was a weird decision it was basically Brock at a house show match.

>the time it took place and the state of the fandom

Roman would be a jobber in the attitude era and they would shit on him a lot worse back then if he was anything more. In the 80's I doubt he would be anything when the reason for his push is his look when people like Hogan and Luger and multiple other men have much better looks than him. People booing faces have always been around as well it's not something new because of the internet.

WWE also should be giving out refunds to a lot of people in attendance with everything that went wrong kids were collapsing due to heat, massive amounts of people missed the preshow they organised it horribly.

If the show was all about giving the fans what they want at every turn, the show would be a schizophrenic mess and nobody would be happy.

Saying that Hogan's charisma would carry him is ridiculous because basically all of the guys that the IWC would replace Roman with are worse on the mic than he is, Daniel Bryan included. Hogan would be more hated than Cena.

Edit: For the record, if Reigns goes heel, and everyone cheers him, he's not a heel. He's face Eddy Guerrero.

This was fantastic, and it's embarrassing that we have to talk about all the other shit that people are complaining about, because that whole segment, with the wrestling being really good(toward the end anyway), the story being told was really good, and it was an incredible moment for WOMEN's wrestling(and women in general) right down to the girls being called superstars.

>Saying that Hogan's charisma would carry him is ridiculous because basically all of the guys that the IWC would replace Roman with are worse on the mic than he is, Daniel Bryan included. Hogan would be more hated than Cena.

Roman is absolutely horrible on the mic and is void of charisma one of the worst entertainers I have ever seen even someone like Cesaro is better than him he doesn't go like "Be-Believe dat" and they know it because since he returned they've kept him far away from the mic.

Cesaro also shows a lot more charisma than Roman with interacting with crowds and not ignoring them this is one of the worst things with Roman, Cena works with the crowd while Roman just ignores it and makes his boo's closer to Eva Marie than John Cena.

Daniel Bryan was not worse on the mic DB was 5/10 completely average on the mic not good not bad.

The people that I have seen people want to replace Roman with are:
Owens(vastly superior on the mic)
Bray(Vastly Superior on the mic)
Ambrose(A lot better on the mic)
AJ Styles(not good on the mic still better than Roman he has delivered good promos on TNA before)
Seth Rollins(Much better on the mic)

If were talking about Nxt guys Samoa Joe should be the top heel right now he has got the look,mic skills and the wrasslin skills. Nakamura is also the most charismatic wrestler today, the man oozes charisma.

I am not saying Hogan would be unanimously loved but he would be liked much more than Roman people would of been properly be wanting Savage to be top guy but a lot of people would of liked him for his charisma and this alone:

This also proves he could wrestle better than he was in WWF because he knows what the audience wants.


>if the show was all about giving the fans what they want at every turn, the show would be a schizophrenic mess and nobody would be happy.

I am not even that pissed about Roman, Mr Dwayne Roman's fake cousin pissed me off so much more if Hogan, Warrior and Savage just kept randomly appearing and beating down Austin and Rock they wouldn't of been as over.

The show had no hope it in no fan favorites win and the Shane and Undertaker storyline is basically this "The show is bad and I will fix it if I win."
"Undertaker won, hurray, now the show can continue to be bad, thank goodness."

Yeah, It's pretty cool if you can find it. They do a lot of interesting things. The backstage promos and stuff are basically shot like short films and the stories so far are pretty compelling(I'm still tremendously behind). It's worth checking out to see whether it's your thing or not.

I just watched WrestleMania earlier... And this is my review:

PROS:
+ Zack won the Intercotinental Championship
+ The ladder match is Great!
+ Women's Title returns! (Retiring the Diva's Championship in the Process)
+ The New Day in their Dragon Ball Z costumes

+ Shane just JUMPED FROM THE TOP OF THE HITC. (thankfully, he's still okay)
+ Surprisingly Baron Corbin won the Andre the Giant Battle Royal
+ HBK, Mick Foley and SCSA returns just for nostalgia feeling
+ Brock Vs. Dean was a... okay match.
+ Sasha's Latino Heat costume dedicated to Eddie!
+ John Cena RETURNS!!!!
+ AJ vs. Y2J was good...
+ Shaq's surprise appearance for the Battle Royal!!
+ Tatanka and DDP as well!!
+ I saw a logo of Motorhead, a band who sang "The Game", "Line in the Sand" and King of Kings", on HHH's boots. (I heard that it was dedicated to the lead vocalist who died because of cancer. Which is sweet BTW.)

CONS:
- Shane loses (hoping to return what RAW it has to be, but still, it was an okay match. Expecting to Shane wins though.)
- The Triple Threat is fucking terrible thank to Ric Flair
- Also, expecting Becky or Sasha won. But they both loses.
- The Rock's misleading announcement (just saying about the attendance record which, of course, I DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT IT)
- The Main event was fucking Rushed and terrible in both ways.
- AJ loses his WM debut.
- Expecting to have a Bloodfest in that Street Fight. (FUCK PG)
- Also, I suppose that after all his weapons that Funk and Foley gave it to Dean. They didn't even use those weapons in purpose. (FUCK PG) Also, I was expecting Dean to use the Chainsaw for fuck's sakes...
- Stephanie McMahon's long speech which I couldn't understand that it makes me bore.
- Speaking of Bore, there's Roman Reigns and the announcers are saying lies about his "Broken Nose"
- And he's the WHC.
- Expecting to have a Heel Turn, but that didn't happened. So people booed as a sign of disapproval.
- Also, stupid Stephanie for getting herself into trouble.
- I skipped the Pre-show because the booking of those matches SUCKS ASS.
- The Rock returns and had a match... Under 10 seconds! (6 secs. is the shortest match in WM history which is not cool for me and that's bullshit)
- The tag-team match sucks too...
- 6 hour WrestleMania (Definitely one of the longest show in the history of WWE) is fucking boring. I just wished if WWE just stays in a 4 or 3 hour show. But, 6 hours?! Are you serious? It's like your trying to make me sleep for a day damn it!

TL;DR:
NXT Takeover: Dallas > WrestleMania 32
If God exists, then he should try extending my deadline right now!

Well my predictions for Raw is that Steph slaps someone(Can never go wrong with this prediction), Ryder loses his belt already :( and Enzo and Cass debut.

Rip Becky, I am guessing this is from Charlotte's moonsault, yesterday was not her night she suffered a nip slip,lost the match and her eye is now all fucked up.

Wrestlemania 32...I got mixed feelings about it.

There were moments that made me behave like I was 10 yeard old boy getting his favourite toy (HBK with his wrestling gear) and moments that I didn't give a flying fuck about it (Main Event,Rock's announcement).

As for the matches.

Ladder for the IC title: It was great and the fact that Ryder won it makes it even better,it was one hell of a suprise. Yes I wanted Sami to win (like every one in Dallas) but I didn't mind it. It was me or they were booing Ryder? Also so many great spots were used.

AJ vs Y2J: Solid match with a great finish. One of the best of the night imo.

Tag Match: Didn't really care. BUT New Day with the DBZ attire,holy mother sweet jesus,it was glorious! Xavier was perfect.

Women's title match. I'll start with this nearly a perfect match,but I hated the ending not because Charlotte won but because of Flair. It left a sour taste in my mouth. That being said I'm sad that Becky didn't win (or Sasha).

Battle Royal: 2 things,Shaq & Baron Corbin.

Brock vs Dean: Standard Lesnar match not much to say really. Also that match made realise that people will cheer for a match were one uses only one move and be entertaint by it,but boo for the most stupid reasons.

HIAC:Pretty meh the first part of the match,but after the Coast to Coast by Shane it turned around,good gracious me. In all honesty I didn't want Shane to jump off,I was scared for his health,he did an absolute madness and I hope he escaped with minimum damage.

Main Event: DIDN'T CARE AT ALL. I knew Reings was gonna win,the crowd booed him like there's no tommorow and I can't get behind this guy after what happend at RR.

(Sorry for any mistakes,but I'm pretty tired)

Oh and yeah NXT:Takeover,madness. Sami vs Nakamura MOTY.

That disclaimer by Cole and JBL xD.

"Bullshit" chants

OMG now Vince is making excuses it's pretty hilarious, they're so scared after all the ballsy decisions.

Shane O mac still most over babyface GOAT Mcmahon.

See this is why I said WM results were bullshit why not just have Cena return to help Shane win and can set up a match Taker has already lost so him losing at Mania doesn't mean fuck. Did Shane book New Day to come out 10 seconds when he went backstage.

If Shane doesn't get fired by the end of the night.


This hasn't been any different so far really WWE do you plan nothing.

It would be hilarious if they make Roman do a 20 minute promo like they made Seth do every week.

Oh boy commentary are extra loud they really are scared of the crowd xD.

2 mania results have been proven pointless in the first 2 segments fuck this company.

Hot garbage Wyatts needed a big feud not the league of jobbers I swear if they can't even beat these 3.

A wade face run for a goodbye would of been nice.

Judging what they said at the start of the show I guess LON were the ones with a face turn.

I swear if they did actually turn Wyatts face and not put them against Authority.

Really Small Bobby Lashley has been called up......Out of all the people that are ready in Nxt he is one of the few who are not, he couldn't even get over in Nxt.

Interesting to see Apollo Crews debut on RAW. Would be pretty cool if he got a Bobby Lashley type of push down the road.

Worst call up since Adam Rose, Crews couldn't even get over in Nxt barely any charisma and mic skills, his wrestling skills are cool but that ain't enough, the man has no character at least he is better than Reigns since he can wrestle.

Tyler jobbing to him ;-;
