The more I think about the end of the women's match.. the more I think how awful it is. It was a great match. But the WWE really dropped the ball on that one. It's like the old saying 'Not sticking the landing'.
You see story wise it should have been Sasha that won.. or Becky. In the lead up we saw her moved to tears on having her image on the side of the stadium. She grew up watching wrestling. Snoop Dogg saying how she was awestruck going backstage as a kid.
Also it was a monumental moment in women's wrestling in the WWE. If Sasha (or Becky) could have had a great celebration... could have had Bayley come out to congratulate... It would not have been just a great Wrestlemania moment it would have been a landmark Wrestlemania moment.
No, instead we got Charlotte retaining .. Which I would have no issue with. But she got help from her father.
It's just.. I could not believe they did that. They ruined it .. utterly ruined it.

Payback should have the Women's triple threat rematch with Flair barred from Ringside or in a *Penalty box.
*It'll be fun seeing him go ballistic in it when Charlotte is losing

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. Well then, they did a terrible job with the New Day and the Wyatts (and LON but who cares about them)... " Hasbeens Legends are superior, kids!"

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 Ryder was the right person to win the ladder match? 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. Yes he did. Hate him all you want, you can't state that as a fact. Ryder had the crowd behind them, he reached out to them for their support with his web show. He definitely deserved his shot. Sadly, because he didn't have main event level mic skills he wasn't given another chance after the Embrace the Hate angle. He's been off long enough that he doesn't have a notable losing streak, and he's dropped the parts of his old character that weren't helping excel past where he was.

Baron Corbin won a match against Shaq and Tatanka, and that's pretty nifty.

He doesn't deserve anything. No he's not and yes he does. You hating him doesn't mean he doesn't what-so-ever. Don't even bother quoting again if you seriously can't come up with a better argument than a three-year-old.

What's the consensus on AJ Styles after tonight? Did he get Sting'd? Was that a "YOU WILL NEVER MAKE IT IN THE BIG LEAGUEZ INDY SCRUB XD" type deal?

I have never seen a wrestling show booked purely out of spite.
This is like... the worst WrestleMania in twenty years. Hands down.

Baron Corbin's booking from Takeover to Wrestlemania was one of the good things about these past few days. He lost to a newer guy and then he got put over in another match. The same should apply to these others.
