Nope, Taker appeared at the press conference for WM 34. I think next year will be the end.

I'm gonna guess his only inclusion with 34 is his Hall of Fame induction.

This match is a total slog and Taker is probably gonna lose.

Only way it could be saved is if Samoa Joe comes out and teams up with Roman. Would be like Stone Cold at Wrestlemania 17

Roman's only good if his opponent can make him look good. Which is a shit predicament for a 3 time Mania main eventer but I guess Vince is weird.

Taker is doing a slightly better job than Triple H last year, but largely this does nothing but prove the smarks right.

Wow his match is way better than I had expected.

Edit: Lesnar won! Good booking.
Yeah, considering he's supposed to carry the title into WM34 and then face....Roman Reigns.

That was the initial plan but they make snap changes all the time. Taker was reported in the last few weeks to be in extreme pain and they accelerated the schedule for his hip surgery which he claimed once he got, he'd be done.

It's funny, but for some reason, someone started cutting onions at the end of the show...

Well a buddy of mine who is a long time Taker fan said he could see Roman taking his place as the Dragonslayer. Doing what he wants, never being a true face or a heel and that sorta thing. Even Taker got booed a lot in his early days.

The key difference is Paul Bearer did a lot of the talking back then. The Deadman didn't do much of his own talking until he went with the American Badass gimmick which was basically him being himself. We've seen that Roman can cut a halfway decent promo when Vince isn't doing his writing...but he really needs his own Paul Bearer or Paul Heyman to try and grow.

A good scenario (in this Arms Dealer's humble opinion) if the plan is indeed to have Reigns face Lesnar at WM34 is to have Heyman screw Brock and jump to Roman's side. After that, let the Advocate work his magic.

The way I'd book it is Lesnar vs Reigns. The man who ended the streak vs the man who ended the career. Both men have wins against Undertaker at Wrestlemania and they've never lost to each other (am I right on this?). Maybe build up Reigns as a monster, but not a babyface. No one likes an invincible hero.

This was the best mania since 30, from beginning to end, it was a great show.

Making him the top heel in your eyes, in 2017 KO is a face and Roman is a heel to people like you, mission accomplished

I cried during the end for Taker, and that match (minus the botch) was great. The whole show was great, Bray should've won tho, but other than that it was fantastic.

Heel wrestlers intentionally try to rile up the crowd to get a reaction. They don't kill the crowd by ending the 27 year career of one of greatest wrestlers of all time with a boring, sloppy shitfest of a match that completely undermines what should have been a really powerful moment.

Kevin Owens is a talented heel wrestler. Roman Reigns is just a garbage babyface.

Best part is Hardy Boys return.

But it's important to remember that a movie review is subjective;it only gives you one person's opinion.

http://www.classzone.com/books/lnetwork_gr08/page_build.cfm?content=analyz_media&ch=30

It doesn't matter if you like LoGH,Monster etc.If you are a jobless or college/school dropout living in your mom basement, you are still an unintelligent loser. Taste in anime does not make you a better person.If elitist don't exist, casual pleb and shit taste also don't exist.

Roman clearly riled you up, he got the reaction backstage wanted. Sloppy Shitfest? Naw that was one of the best matches on the whole show, it deserved to end it and it was fantastic, the kickout's, the chair shot's, it was beautiful, don't let your smarky head blind you from that (I just hated that botch by Roman tho)
Tonight proved Hunter's point tonight, heels and faces aren't what you thought they were.

Also Brock vs Goldberg was lokey fantastic

I personally thought the match was kinda crappy, but I didn't think it was Roman's fault. Undertaker hasn't really been able to go for a while, was basically postponing hip surgery for years and finally was getting it done this year, and for whatever reason, was forced into a 23 minute match. that just plainly didn't need to be 23 minute to tell that story. I teared up seeing him retire, he was great, but I honestly am happy he's done simply because it hurt my heart seeing him wrestle like he had been and just the way he was moving look bad.

I think it really really sucks that people are putting that on Roman but that's kinda been the way it's been for 2 years and I just quite simply don't think it's gonna change anytime soon. At this point, each person that boos him seems to have a death grudge against the guy and each of those people have different requirments that need to be met before the see him as "fixed" and it's just impossible to fulfill each of them for each person.

Also on the botch, I kinda don't think that was on Roman, it didn't look like Taker was giving him any help like he was supposed to(probably cause of the bad hip), and it's probably borderline impossible to dead lift ~300 pounds, length wise, without really being able to use your legs at all.

The Wrestlemania 33 main event was very mediocre, 4/10 for me.

It started off good with Undertaker dominating and the mind games between them in and out the ring. Everything went downhill after Taker got speared into the table. Match slowed down dramatically and Taker looked like he was getting more hurt.

Final few minutes of the match was just painful to watch. The spear after spear...even JR's commentary couldn't save the match.

Best match of the night imo was the Tag Team match. The Hardy Boyz returning was the highlight and almost every team got in some offensive and spotlight.

I'm going to watch the Shane vs Aj soon but I heard it was good.

Well it was certainly better than other smackdown matches for sure, bray lost for what? So Randy can become 13 time world champion because a dozen before weren't enough, female sd match as forgettable.

Can't wait for raw and full on heat for Roman.

As a Roman hater, go fuck yourself.

Anyhow, who likes to see Nakamura in either RAW or Smackdown(hopefully).



EDIT: WrestleMania 33: I score it a unsatisfactory yet BROKEN demise of 3/10.
Pros:
- The Hardyz return (without the BROKEN Gimmick)
- AJ Styles Vs. Shane McMahon (Match of the Night)
- JR Returns (reports said that JR might signed a 2 year contract with the WWE)

Cons:
- Other matches that I didn't mention on the Pros.
- Also, no Mauro Ranallo.
- Another WrestleMania ruined, just like last year.

Oh come on now this was a fucking great WM they did good with this one. 8/10

Pre-show MEEEEEEEH

Best match:

AJ vs Shane and that's,believe it or not,thanks to Shane.He outdid himself and Styles being the great worker that he is delivered aswell.

KO vs Chris was good,imo I think the no holds barred stipulation fitted this match and it could've been better.

Fatal 4way was fine for what it was it didn't wow me like the last years match

Tag title,amazing simple as that. When the BROKEN Hardys came out I was schocked,I got goosebumps I couldn't believe they were here,I thought the RAW after Mania was when they would appear.

Mixed tag match,was meh loved the crowd reaction to Miz lol still think that he should've won but it was fine I'm not mad and congrats to Cena & Nikki that was a feel good moment.

Seth vs Trips was great it could've been better,little more vicious or hard hitting but Seth's knee maybe was the problem for that. The ending was perfect because FINALLY Steph got what she deserved and Seth won.

WWE & Universal championship matches.
At least one should've been after the Six Pack match....

The spectacle in the ring with Bray was brilliant the match was fine,wrong guy won the finish was underwhelming.

Brock vs Goldberg was pure FUN,it wasn't a match but it was entertaining as hell.

Six pack challenge,cool Naomi won didn't care tbh at all.

The main event

Sorry Taker but that matched proved you should've hanged your boots a long time ago,it was fine we should accept that Reings will not turn heel move on people are shitting on a PPV no matter how good it was just because Reings won,yes his push to superstardom was bad and annoying but it's been 3 years now stop it.I'm certain tha IF he becomes a bad guy people will cheer him,because we are dickheads and hard to please.

Taker farewell I felt heartbroken after WM because one of the all time greats is probably retiring,we will miss you for sure. Legend.

(sorry for any grammar mistakes,it's late I'm tired 5 hours of wrestling is too much tbh)

Watched WM yesterday with some friends, we went home disappointed.

Highlight for us: Return of Hardy Boyz, we were jumping and screaming like apes.

The matches were nothing special, with AJ vs Shane being the best one.

What disappointed me the most was that the outcome of each match was very predictable;
then again, in the last years it was always like that which really disappointed me.
Overall i would've prefered to just go home after the fatal 4way, as the rest was just not enjoyable for me.
I even rooted for Triple H and Goldberg, just because i hoped for a twist and a little bit more unpredictability,
but as we all know it was pretty stupid of me and my hopes were let down.

Overall i would rate it 3/10 i really did not enjoy it much.
