I feel the WWE universe should win the Warrior award next year for sitting through that show

I was really feeling it at the start of the show. It's Wrestlemania!! Never has there been this draining feeling all the way through til I just wanted it to be over by the end. Visual representation of WWE handling my good will tonight:

One more time to go out on - More like "f*** you, we've already got your money." "Thanks for the record, suckers!"

I think I'm gonna watch Wrestlemania XI tomorrow to see how it compares to this.

Probably been mentioned already, but worth repeating; Roman Reigns, in the span of >5 months, has won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship 3 times. At this rate, he'll have passed Flair in ~6 years of main roster wrestling.

Glad I waited to see how the show panned out before I wasted money.
My year long PPV boycott is stronger than Roman baby!

It wasn't a good mania but I think we're overreacting here. I mean it was better than 27, 11, 13, 2, and 9. It had mania moments with Shane's Dive, Ryder, Michaels/Foley/Austin and Cena/Rock vs Wyatts. Match quality was ok. Major gripe is that all of the wrong people won the matches, sans Ryder,Reigns, and Corbin. This is coming from some one who didn't even like the show. But calling the worst show ever is kinda hot headed and very hyperbolic

I really liked the BootyOs. HHH's entrance was legendary. Was fun to see Austin and co.

Dude hasn't been relevant in like 6 years and even back then he didn't really deserve it. Owens or Zayn deserved as they have more upwards mobility.

I think I'm gonna watch Wrestlemania XI tomorrow to see how it compares to this. It's worse Diesel vs HBK is good if a little too long (just watch their "Good Friends, Better enemies" match instead) L.T/Bam Bam is better than it should've been but it's still "meh" at best. The rest is terrible, really really bad I've just saved you three hours of your life

I'll say this, as I was walking out I could not help but get the feeling this was not about the now, not about the fans who have been there for years (I don't mean snarks either). If you're over 20-21 they weren't booking for you. I saw streams and streams, bunches and bunches of kids who were elated Roman won. They want to see Charoltte lose because she cheats, they love Kalisto and Sin Cara. This shows was about getting them. This was about them going to mommy and daddy asking for the Network, selling them what they can.
I don't mean this to be bad either. It just felt like this was someone saying "f*** it, we need younger fans and need to stick with something". This was booking a foundation for 2, 3, 4 years from now.

I really liked the womens match. Honestly that was probably the one the crowd was alive for the most. Great match.

I get what your saying, but the moment it created imo compensated for the seeming out of nowhere booking decision

And Ambrose win........ Reigns winning whether we like or not made sense. Everything else not so much..... Switch most of the decisions on this matches, and this Mania probably gets looked at more favorably.

Switch most of the decisions on this matches, and this Mania probably gets looked at more favorably. Because they want Charlotte as the face of the Women, so she won. Ambrose was disappoint but Roman still need someone to conquer and losing to Dean probably doesn't play into that.

Styles/Jericho in an Iron Man match sounds good going forward
