I loved Benoit winning the title but I think the length of his reign was good enough, IMO.
WM20 felt like it was 6 hours, I usually skip through most of it when watching this show.

Wrestlemania 21
Wow, how'd they get Lilian Garcia to sing America the Beautiful?
The movie parodies are some of the best things WWE has ever done. It's actually surprising that Taker would do one since he's so guarded usually
I hated having Rey vs. Eddie at Mania while they were tag champs. They should have started Eddie's heel turn and had them lose the titles before the show
Eddie looks like he sprayed his hair gold before the match
Rey constantly messing with his mask
Did JBL vs. Triple H ever happen? I can't seem to remember
Money in the Bank: Great gimmick that got overdone
Everyone goes after Kane. Someone should have been smart enough to stay behind and try to grab the briefcase
Excellent dive, Shelton
Whenever someone throws a ladder backwards I get very scared
When will people learn to not catch Shelton's foot?
How do you learn to fall of a 20 foot ladder anyway?
Shelton was the proto Kofi
Benoit's selling of the arm was great and re-opening his stitched up eye was crazy
Edge had to win here but he had that briefcase for what felt like 6 years
It's funny how I didn't notice Eugene's jacket was inside out until it was talked about on Colt Cabana's podcast years later
Tell me more about this Midget Army
Hassan's constant pauses were probably more annoying than the WHAT chants
I guess Eugene was Hogan's friend and this hurt Hogan's pride
Hogan/Hassan could have main evented Wrestlemania
New Zingland!
It's a good thing Hogan's family just happened to have front row tickets
Taker rides a hoverboard to the ring
Orton coming out 2nd seems weird
Awkward looking Old School
Huge pop from me for Bob Orton with the cast
Chokeslam into the RKO should have been the finish. Orton would have been made with that win
Apparently Lita isn't a very good trainer
Trish's outfit is ridiculously hot
I never understood why Angle didn't just switch to trunks if he was constantly pulling his straps down anyway
Heenan called this his favorite match and said it was the first time you really didn't know who was going to win
If the grapevine was always the end, why didn't Angle just grapevine the leg from the get-go?
Why did they change Piper's music after all those years?
Son of an unnamed goat is such a weird thing
Welcome to Piper's Pit *bitch slap*
Piper playing off the What chants is great
There's no time outs in interview segments
He stole my apple!
Austin is bi-polar or something. Always celebrating with people and then stunning them
Oof, sudden edit
Why does Big Show get all of these weird celeb gimmick type matches?
Well that was a thing
That limo driver looks ridiculous
It's amazing how Bradshaw was able to completely reinvent himself
Cena wins and starts off a new era
Sheik was the MVP of the Hall of Fame
Thought the announcer said Meng Gene Okerlund
I love all the made up entrance music for all these guys who never had music
Baby Maria
I kinda felt bad for Nikolai Volkoff. Everyone else had their peers inducting them and he got Jim Ross by default. A few years later and they could have had Kozlov or Rusev do it. Or bring back Slick.
Are we sure Motorhead wasn't WWE's favorite band?
Did you say haberdashery?
Very awkward clothesline to Triple H's face. Ouch
Triple H covered in Hawaiian Punch
Batista gets all the leftover pyro to end the show

Wrestlemania XX Dr. Tom trying to reform the Heavenly Bodies with Johnny the Bull I felt they coulda done a lot more cameos with this WrestleMania, given the big anniversary and the relative large amount of people not being used (although there was an odd bit later with Eddie & Benoit where a bunch of guys, like Billy Gunn, Paul London - still a low carder newb at this point in his career - and Steven Richards, looked like.....they were getting ready for a match?) so getting Dr. Tom Prichard and Johnny Stamboli was really weird. Though the biggest oddity of all was that Bischoff got a WrestleMania appearance. And not Heyman. Given their histories, that was bizarre. In my headcanon, Fuji and Slick were back there too. Not a joke I just made up. Actual thought of the last 13 years. Help me. To be fair, he lived/lives in Hawaii year round. I would imagine being anywhere on this continent would be cold for him; he's just instinctively a guy who probably owns NO winter clothing. Hell, even I - a New Englander - when I get my hair cut short wears a hat for a couple days after. Really? I'd imagine a lot of the guys who've been inducted the last several years woulda been inducted long ago (well, the ones not involved with WCW). Though I definitely think guys "lower tier" guys like Lord Alfred (known for a particular WWF era, with more territorial careers outside Stamford) would have been inducted. Heh. BTW, Okerlund's GI Joe reference on the stage of WrestleMania forever made me a fan of the man. He was actually still under contract at this point, just off TV for a few months, and was let go later in 2004. I think that Kyo Dai gimmick going away (Tajiri's stable for a bit at the end of 2003 - IIRC, there was talk the actual Japanese mafia got pissed off with it, so it quietly went away) really hurt his employment, moreso than Akio. Faarooq was acting rather odd during the match - didn't do much if anything at all, and even in his entrance he seemed off - he'd gotten into a fight with Big Show earlier that weekend and was legit let go later that week (in between the Smackdown taping where the APA got fired, yet Bradshaw managed to save his job at the cost of Ron's, which led into his JBL "rebirth" - and its airing). A pointless factoid I'll forever cling to, for some reason.

Wrestlemania 21 I kinda felt bad for Nikolai Volkoff. Everyone else had their peers inducting them and he got Jim Ross by default. A few years later and they could have had Kozlov or Rusev do it. Or bring back Slick. I'm friends with Nikolai and asked him about this because I also thought it was an odd choice. It turns out when Nikolai wrestled for Bill Watts he became friends with Jim Ross so the choice was logical. NOW, if this were a recent Hall of Fame year WWE would probably do something more in line with creating a storyline with someone like Kozloz or Rusev as you mention. The worst choice for presenter HAS to be William Shatner-a guy who won't do anything without being paid and for the right price he will act like he's your best friend.

Nikolai just always seemed like a very sheepish person in non-kayfabe settings.

Wrestlemania 22
Michelle Williams misses her cue
So nice that this intro isn't overdubbed. It's actually my favorite Wrestlemania opening of all time and quite possibly my favorite WWE video
I hated Carlito's music because everyone always thought it was re-starting by accident. Even though it did that every single time.
Remember when Kane got locked in that room and Big Show tried to move a forklift to get him out and then Kane was standing behind him and said there was another door?
These 4 guys ain't doing anything. So tag titles I guess?
Carlito getting a hell of a pop
That chop block almost went into a DDT on Big Show. That would have been a hell of a tandem move
That was actually a pretty good opener for something I wasn't really excited about going in
Coach looked like a dark Mean Gene for a second
I always get these few Wrestlemanias mixed up. I never remember what HBK is doing until the show goes on
I'm pretty sure Lilian said "ogre" instead of "over"
I wonder whose idea it was for Ric Flair to be in Money in the Bank
Shelton's dive could have gone so wrong
Those referees just joined DX!
I actually knew Flair was ok because that was one of the only flat back bumps he ever took
Too many voices on commentary. It's confusing.
He's got the Sheneneh!
Tazz thinks Matt is going to jump for the briefcase from the corner. K
So many highspots and no one going for the case
Shelton jumps from out of nowhere and they completely miss the shot
Matt takes a nasty tumble over the top rope
And Van Dam falls off the ladder while winning
Baby Josh Matthews
Gene said something derogatory about Bob Orton. Blasphemy!
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHO WINS!
"The Millionaire" Ted DiBiase
I thought Vickie Guerrero was accompanying Tony Atlas for a second
and the long pause on "Verne" made me think Fink was saying "Virgil"
The Fridge looks like Crocodile Humpty Dumpty
Very classy of the Blackjacks to walk over and raise Vickie's arms up
I still call Benoit the "Rabbit Wolverine"
I miss Jillian
Sounded like Cole called the Three Amigos the Triple Monocles
I always liked the Crossface because it could come from pretty much any spot
Lawler getting Wrestlemania virginity and Hardcore virginity mixed up. K...
I rememeber saying "wow, Mick's not wearing red and he looks chubby" Sorry, Mick
They did such a good job with the barbed wire spear spot. It was like Bret and the steel plate
Mick Foley's Hardcore BBQ could be a decent chain of restaurants
Edge wanting to set Foley on fire now
Edge found a secret pile of weapons
Foley sacrifices himself to suplex Edge into the thumbtacks
Even Lita gets color!
Joey Styles sounding like he's the one getting barbed wire across the head
Even Homer Simpsons thinks that's too much lighter fluid
That Spear through the flaming table spot is ridiculous
Edge selling like he's the Mummy
Foley bleeding in front of a small child
It's crazy how they went from this to Foley and Edge being a team
Booker T's freak parade
Look at all those chairs
Dibiase still a dick
if Goldust hadn't said he was Oprah I would have had no clue
He didn't just say that because he just whispered nonsense in your ear
I forgot that this was 2 on 1
The smoke makes the match unwatchable
Sharmell doesn't even know what to do with that big stick
This could have gone a lot faster honestly
Was Mickie actually going to kill Ashley?
DO YOU LOVE ME NOW?
Mickie had to win here otherwise what was left for her?
GRUNT!
Trish getting booed out of the building
Mickie's laugh and scream was pretty good
It's probably for the best that they cut out that one thing
And then Trish falls face first onto Mickie's knee
Oh they removed the botched Stratusfaction too
Vince looks ridiculous with that tan
Oh right, Linda was heel
I don't remember this music for Mark Henry
I always assumed they re-used the same casket over and over again until I saw that piece on the WWE Warehouse
This is not a great match
A Last Ride....sorta
Taker's dive just made me cringe
I can't believe he got him up for the Tombstone
Shawn Michaels vs. Vince
Now Shawn vs. Dolph Ziggler and friends
Remember when they thought Kenny was the star?
Boola Boola!
Bret should have made the same appearance that Piper did
How could you forget about Shane?
How could you forget that Shane would obviously have the key?
Unprotected chairshot to the head. Ouch
This ending takes entirely too long. Vince lays there with a garbage can on his head for what seems like hours
JR keeps calling him Shawn McMahon or Shawn McMichaels
Let me go punch Shane again for the hell of it
Now I'm gonna fight these EMTs!
YOU SUCK IT! AND YOU SUCK IT! AND EVERYONE SUCK IT!
Vince with the finger again
Shawn kissing his wife....at least let's hope that was his wife
Eddie's down there! In Hornswoggle land!
Rey gets put into the main event for no reason
That's my Pueblo!
THE GOBBLEDY GOOKER IS HERE!
619 into the Ankle Lock is a great spot
Mysterio is eating Charles Robinson's face!
Pretty hot match, the obvious one wins it
Shot of Rey's daughter and Eddie's illegitimate son
Up next Eddie Guerrero vs. Hulk Hogan....oh wait...
The shots of Cena and Triple H getting ready is way too long
Took less than a year for the crowd to turn on Cena
Oh and we still have the Pillow Fight anyway
Who the hell is Karl Hackenschmidt?
So if they roll off the bed can they get counted out?
That dog could have fleas!
It does seem weird for them to go to all this trouble, getting a bed in the ring and whatnot for such a short match. They could have done this on the stage or something
Crowd chanting 30 seconds for some reason. Maybe the ref was a bit loud with his direction
Candice had something hidden under the bed!
Lilian looks like she's genuinely concerned for some reason
Bow down, Tuna King
Triple H with a chain to match Cena's
Baby CM Punk
Naked Cena
You're on camera, spin the belt! Spin it!
Triple H with his version of a Flair Flip out of the ring
I basically spaced out for a few minutes with all the booing
Were all the crotch chops planned beforehand or a happy accident?
Everyone boos Cena but then cheers when he randomly kicks out
WTF? Guy. I guess this was his first Wrestlemania or something

Been a while since I've seen it but: Wasn't Mickie targeting Trish's knee for a while? That's how I always rationed the botched Stratusfaction; Trish's knee gave out. Maybe it just looked bad.

Wrestlemania 23
The Wrestlemania 3 footage at the beginning looks so grainy
I feel like there's way too many intros now. We get an intro, then America the Beautiful and then another intro
F-U HBK!
Hurry up and get out there, Jeff! Next music!
Nice to see that CM Punk got out of that gang and became a wrestler
There's like 85 people in this match
Get off the top rope, old man!
Hey Jeff, let's not even try to win the match, let's kill Edge!
"There's going to come a time when these two brothers turn on each other." Gross.
Finishers everywhere
Let's just forget that there's a ladder draped from the ring to the security wall. It's not like that's ever gonna get used
C'mon Jeff, you don't even want the World title, kill Edge and yourself!
Just take care of Edge, let Jeff die on the floor
A Booklynd, according to Michael Cole
Matt threatens to beat a woman to get Booker to take the bait
Hornswoggle wants to rip his clothes off!
Hornswoggle was kinda thin here
Hey, a post-match promo
Kennedy says the champs need to have eyes in the back of their heads but then later says he won't cash in til next Wrestlemania
Hey, TJ Perkins as baby Batista
I wouldn't have even remembered that this was an inter-promotional match if Lilian didn't say it was.
"The Great Paul E."
This is not Kane's best match
Khali channeling George Steele
Wrestlemania 23 Acid Trip
Is Slick a pimp again?
I'm guessing they were all drinking water from Flint
Newer posters probably don't remember that my "gimmick" was that I was the MVP of the forums for making a few guesses about things. Then MVP signed to Smackdown on my birthday and I was totally ripped off
Kinda creepy listening to Cole talk about Benoit's "mistress" being wrestling
Benoit actually wins with the headbutt
JBL says Benoit is going to be in the hall of fame....yikes
Boogeyman foaming at the mouth is creepy
Cody had his coming out party at his father's induction
The fire marshal let us cram 3 extra people in!
Just get out here, no time for pretty girls to escort you out
It feels like the show just started but we're already over an hour in so World title time
I'm sick of all these people talkin out their heads
I SWEAR TO GOD I'VE NEVER SEEN BATISTA
Let's go Tater chants?
Let's break some crap!
Pretty hot match
I can't tell if people are booing because Batista is punching Taker or that it was obvious he was going to wind up powerbombed
Pink Shirt Dude really wants Taker to win
"How the hell did he roll his shoulder up?" Well you see the muscles in your neck are connected...
Vince yelling at an empty stroller
I like how Vince is saying he's going to beat up Donald Trump but neither man is actually wrestling
Sandman is a member of the Shield. Oh wait, they're all coming from the crowd.
A lot of people said that the match these 8 had on the following episode of ECW is what should have happened at Wrestlemania but I actually disagree. Here they were just a filler match with hardly any time. It wouldn't have been as good even with the Hardcore gimmick. By doing the hardcore match on the show you're helping spike a higher rating
Elijah Burke wearing a blouse
Ariel was a favorite of mine and I also liked Matt Striker a lot
At least Sabu had his own tights this time
Sandman trying to fire up the crowd and it wasn't very effective
Shame that Cor Von had to retire so early. Not sure he would have been a huge star but at least he could have had a chance.
Everything about Tommy Dreamer is well documented apparently
I guess Striker didn't get the red and black memo
Striker taking that monkey flip was fantastic
Hey, why not do the original rolling thunder with Sabu instead of Van Dam taking all the glory?
Striker selling the DDT was pretty good too
That Austin kid pouring milk in his eyes makes me think he was cutting hot peppers and accidentally rubbed his eyes
Hitman Hearns not wearing pink and black
Please check to see if you're still breathing
Battle of the Billionaries got WWE a lot of great press but the end was telegraphed from 1000 miles away. Having bigger stars not involved in the match hurt too.
Pretty amazing how that bill floated right into Vince's hand like that. What are the odds?
Umaga with a crotch chop during his top rope splash
I forgot that the barber chair got its own entrance
Brutus Beefcake must have been sitting by his phone waiting for them to ask him to come in for this match
First time I saw Umaga's "Samoa" tattoo I thought it was fake
Oh right, this was champion vs. champion as well
Austin coming out last is kind of shitty
Austin already getting involved only moments in
"Come on, Bobby!" reminds me of a bit that Hugh Fink used to do....actually he probably still does it if he's still doing comedy
Photographers: DO SOMETHING, DONALD!
Austin fast counting on the double countout thing and then refusing to count to 10. K....why bother counting then?
Austin gouging Umaga's eyes. That's not your job, referee
Shane just happens to be a referee now
Trump with some weird choke clothesline
And now Lashley only beats Umaga because of a Stone Cold Stunner
Shane attacks Austin to keep him from shaving Vince. Bobby and Trump do literally nothing to help.
Austin's music is now playing even though Lashley won the match
Vince deserves a ton of credit for doing this
For once the clippers actually worked
The bald headed blues?!?
Now you're just wasting the shaving cream
Austin stuns Trump for literally no reason
Rando ass tag team lumberjack match with two makeshift teams while real teams are on the outside
Trinity looks great here, I was never a huge fan of hers
I was actually a big Ashley fan and thought she was the only one who deserved to win that year's Divas Search
*Melina walks out* Cole: A WHORE.....D of paparazzi
Mickie looking for someone to hit and then just stops caring
The vote asked if John Cena Will Win the WWE Championship instead of Retain. Oops.
Allegedly the original plan was for Cena/HHH II with HHH winning here. I think this turned into a happy accident
HBK with DX Music and no DX colors
Cena trying out for Fast/Furious/40
It's kind of silly having Cole and JBL just sit there. In situations like that they should have them kinda break in a few times with information fed to them by the guys in the back. Make them seem like the sideline reporters.
I still don't get why HBK, whose finisher was a kick to the face, would want to work over Cena's leg. You think he'd want to work the neck and head to make Cena more dazed so he couldn't escape the superkick
Shawn covered in blood briefly starts turning into a bulldog
This is one of the first times I remember saying that the "You Can't Wrestle" chants weren't gonna fly anymore
Lots of pretty counters in this one
The STFU at the end with Shawn completely tied up is fantastic
Michaels refusing the handshake at the end was apparently a shoot and it sucked

I don't think they would induct any posthumous Celebrities, they wont be getting thier moneys worth out of doing so. I am not too knowledgeable on Ali's health but it may have been too bad to consider him before his death, but yes I agree he technically should be. Ali is a huge enough name a posthumous induction will still get press. A dead Ali is still a more valuable name than say, living Vanna White to WWE. Probably the biggest reason he wasn't put in is because he pretty much stopped talking in public the last 10-20 years of his life due to progression of his disease. I think it was one of those remember me how I was not how I am type deals. Really sad with him being the greatest talker in the history of boxing and laid the groundwork for people to pay money to watch someone shut him up in the boxing world. They could have probably done a reading of a letter written by him or something, but at that point, it probably wasn't going to happen. Ali didn't make a whole lot of appearances, period, post about 2002ish.

Wrestlemania 24
This was my first live Mania. I grew up in NYC but we moved to FL in 1992. I figured the closest I would ever get to Mania was Miami. It was ery exciting for me to be able to get one in my home area. I actually got there super early because they were doing Axxess in a small field across the street. I figured I would be busy all day. Turns out I was done pretty quickly haha. But since I was there live I never saw the recorded version until a few years ago so this is maybe my 2nd or 3rd viewing of it.
I remember seeing a shirtless Teddy Hart walking around with a replica World title on his shoulder and posing for the crowd even though no one was chanting for him or anything
For reference I was in the lower set of bleachers facing the stage. So everyone's entrance was heading towards us
It actually just started raining for a bit prior to the show kicking off and I thought it was going to be miserable but it quikcly stopped
Was shocked that the Belfast Brawl was kicking things off because I figured it would be one of the bigger matches and that Vince would get involved
JBL actually had one of the best speeches the night before at the Hall of Fame
It's an Irish table!
JBL throwing the trash can at Hornswoggle actually got a huge pop live
Really didn't think JBL was going over here especially without help from Vince
Kim Kardashian looks normal here
I definitely didn't notice the sign saying "Jim Morrison" while I was there live
Shelton back after missing the last one
Kennedy goes under the ladders. That explains his bad luck.
I remember that Jeff Hardy was supposed to be in this match til he failed a piss test. Everyone was convinced that Matt was taking his place. What they did wound up being a better option
Ladder already set up like last year
Morrison's moonsault with ladder was scary and probably shouldn't be attempted again
Everybody jump now!
What are you doing here, Matt Hardy?!?!?
I wasn't that hyped about Jericho coming back because I had seen him wrestle for WCW. It's nice for me to see guys I haven't seen before
I honestly figured Kennedy was going back to back since he never got his shot the year before. Was super shocked that they pulled the trigger on Punk
Jericho getting caught in the ladder was nice but something that should happen to a heel
It was crazy to me how over Triple H was at this point with the crowd. Everyone assumed it was a lock he was leaving with the title
Jack Brisco looked like Chevy Chase there
Rock's stuff was actually filmed first and he had to use that microphone because he could barely hear him otherwise
Triple H had to come out two times to tell Ric he had to wrap it up
Crazy how many people on the stage have died since then
Baby Charlotte
Baby Gallows!
Mick looking kind of young here
YOUMANGA!
Batista/Umaga was probably my least favorite match on the card
One thing that was weird for me was not being able to hear the sound of the mat during bumps like you could hear when shows were indoors. One of the only times we actually heard it was the Batista Bomb. From my angle it didn't look as nearly badly botched
Finding Sign Guy is like playing Where's Waldo sometimes
This was the first time I had seen a live battle royal and was very excited
I don't know how but it somehow became common knowledge that Kane was winning the battle royal and the ECW title at this show. In fact our local paper made predictions on who would win each match and even they said Kane was going to win the title. We never expected a squash but it was definitely a huge pop
Stupid seagulls
I don't think there was any doubt that Flair was hanging it up here. Too much build up, the hall of fame induction, and he's gonna just not retire here? Yeah, right
HBK: Dog Killer
Hell of a robe
Glad that Flair's stuff all matched
Flair hits a cross body off the top. So that's what he was trying to do all this time.
HBK with the "why did I do that?" look on his face after hitting the table
From my angle we couldn't even tell that Shawn basically missed Flair on the 2nd moonsault
HBK clearly loading up his boot with a foreign object before the superkick
Just once I'd like a guy on commentary to say that reversing the figure four doesn't reverse the pressure but cause pressure on both men causing the person who put the hold on to release it
Botch on the double bridge spot
HBK kicks Flair so hard in the face that he makes him cry
Flair tells Shawn to "get the f*** out of my ring" at the end
All the air kind of leaves the building once the match is over though
That looked like Bayley crying
Edge's promo is one of my favorite things about this show
REDGER
I don't remember that fireworks explosion during the middle of the show
I didn't understand why Snoop Dogg needed a little car
I just realized they made Cherry come down that long ramp with those rollerskates on
Simple Plan did not do this music
Let's just forget Beth's music completely
The face divas just start kicking the shit out of Melina and don't bother trying to put her back in
Two moves robbed from X-Pac already in this
When the lights went out this kid sitting next to me was 100% convinced that it was Santino trying to ruin the match and make sure no one could see Maria
Lawler attacks Santino. How was he not fired for leaving the announce table?
I remember when Cena went out with that injury and the timeframe for his return. I wasn't a huge Cena fan but not seeing "the guy" at my first Wrestlemania was going to be disappointing
That kid drumming has zero expression on his face
Triple H doesn't get a fancy entrance
Lots of interesting 3-way moves in this one
I actually miss Cena's Throwback move
Every time Triple H uses the Indian Deathlock JR says he hasn't seen it in years
I remember some dude outside before the show that had a Cena Sucks banner or something and was having everyone sign it for some reason like it was a petition
Why is no one ever "Linguine legged?"
Orton staying out of this for so long makes the punt/pinfall happen so suddenly. Everyone was completely shocked
Big Show working out with guys in a private gym seemed weird. If he had been praciting boxing it would have made more sense
There were two little kids several rows ahead of me that went absolutely crazy over Mayweather. The odd thing was I hadn't seen them in those seats before that point. They kind of just showed up for that match
One of my stupid little quirks is that I find it funny to change the word "money" to "monkey." Example: I don't care too much for monkey, monkey can't buy me love." I made a conscious effort to NOT do that at any point in this match for fear of sounding like a terrible racist.
Big Show knocking that guy out was hilarious
He can't do that!
The babyface/heel dynamic seems to swing back and forth several times in this one
It looks like Big Show's nipple is gouging into Floyd's head as he carries him back to the ring
The endless run-ins are a bit ridiculous
Greatest boxer in the world has to use brass knuckles to knock someone out
Sad Show
Douchetista steals this guy's girl for no reason
"It's big! That's really big!" became Kim's catchphrase
Prior to the show we all assumed the triple threat was going on last with Triple H winning to send the crowd home happy and that the Edge/Taker match was truly a toss up. Once it was going on last the ending was obvious
It's nice that the druids have their own entrance theme
Was a huge shock to see Taker come out without his hat but I guess he was going for a throwback to his 1998 gear
Vickie Guerrero is such an underrated performer and extremely deserving of a Hall of Fame induction at some point
I had forgotten that Coach was there til now
I thought this match was the absolute best match on the show and blew HBK/Flair away. They had everyone eating out of the palms of their hands and on their feet
Keep telling us Taker has never beat Edge
Edge accidentally pushing the downed ref out of the ring is hilarious
Everyone online made fun of it but Charles Robinson running down the ramp got a huge pop live
Ryder looks so freakin weird with long hair
As soon as Taker won I considered bolting out as fast as I could to my car to beat traffic but I stuck around to watch his celebration for a bit

Wrestlemania 25
Guys sitting in front of a sheet talking about stuff
CM Punk gets to be the first person to come out for Wrestlemania instead of the last.
Oh Punk under the ladders....another bad luck guy
MVP is coming before he's actually coming
Finlay in his ugly ass WCW jacket
Baby Kofi
"Kane only needs one ring, he's getting rid of one so he can use the other."
Shelton almost completely kills himself with a stupid spot
Finlay ruins Mark's dive
Baby Ladder
Kofi running up the ladder that Mark was holding was the moment that Shelton's days as the "crazy ladder spot" guy were over
Just the idea of a GTS off a ladder was scary
Shelton's botched sunset flip powerbomb was not good
Christian stopping on the top rope and bringing the ladder back was gangster
They tease a rerun of the finish of last year's match with Punk getting caught that time
Wow, I'm surprised that the Kid Rock performance is on here.
Is that hat permanently sewed onto Billy Gibbins' head?
Everyone complained about the Divas not getting individual entrances but the whole point was that they needed to find a way to sneak Santina into the ring so it wouldn't be obvious who it was at first
This last song sounds like the Hardys theme
This match should have been nicknamed the Silicone Valley
Beth realizing this is taking too long and she needs to toss more people out
I was so over Santino by this point. This is going on way too long.
It's clear they wanted Jericho vs. Rourke and did this instead
Mickey flipping someone off just as the camera goes on him
It's like they threw legends' names into a hat and picked these out at random.
The Narcissist Chris Jericho
Put that Cigarette Out!!!!
Steamboat hadn't lost a step. It was amazing that he kept himself in such good shape
WM 0-25?
ASK HIM!
I don't even remember Steamboat doing dives like that when he was young
There's an old dude in the front with a huge smile on his face during the whole Jericho/Steamboat one on one
If Rourke hadn't been involved at all then Steamboat should have snuck a victory to set up the rematch they had. Jericho had to win to get the celebrity spot in
I feel like if they had shaved off several minutes of this ending that the main event would have had enough time to tell a proper story
This Matt and Jeff feud seemed like such a "um well, you guys aren't doing anything else so go ahead and fight each other at Mania, whatever."
Matt killed and probably ate Jeff's dog
I like Matt's color scheme but those keys are dumb
This is a pretty tame hardcore match
Jeff's leapfrog over a ladder thing never made sense to me. Just jump off the one ladder, it's the same thing.
Orton: *look down, look up, look down again, look up again*
Mysterio's joker mask is a nightmare
Mysterio pulls a Spike Dudley and leaves
Shawn as the Anti-Taker is more ridiculous than epic
Taker is very pink
Shawn's goldbricking!
Just once it would be nice for Shawn not to kip up just to sell the punishment he's received
HBK is not lucky with moonsaults lately
You can see Taker land semi ok and then immediately get pissed and realize where he is and stop being pissed to sell. He looked like he wanted to kill Deuce
Michaels was a tad too far back, that could be the cause of Taker getting dropped
Kip up again!
Taker's top rope elbow looked awkward
Skin the cat into a Tombstone is a great spot and I'm surprised no one had done it before
Sad Taker is Sad
I'm now expecting Taker to kip up
Tons of boos during the build up to Sweet Chin Music
I think this match went a tad long. A lot of resting near the end that could have been avoided
Green tank top girl is distracting
Cena: I told Vickie Guerrero that I want to marry her
Oh, that's right Vickie and Edge did get married at some point
Lilian: Ladies and Gentlemen, Smackdown General Manager Vickie Guerrero!!!!!!!......and Chavo
What if Edge left Vickie for Big Show?
Cena is Multiple Man
Chavo gets killed, thanks for coming
I don't think Andre stayed stuck in the ropes as long as Big Show is right now during his entire career
Is that Malenko helping Vickie to the back?
Throwing a dude onto another dude is actually a really smart move you don't see enough in multi-man matches
Cena vs. That One Guy should headline Mania
Is Steamboat the only person to cut a kayfabe promo at the Hall of Fame?
T-Pain is in the Hall of Fame!
Austin wastes almost 5 minutes which could have been used for either a rushed 8-person tag or added on to the main event so it didn't have to end so abruptly
I had forgotten that Shane attacked nearly all the McMahons prior to this match
It's kind of weird seeing Stephanie as damsel in distress after years of being the boss
Surprised we didn't get a HHH/Vince/Shane vs. Legacy match
Triple H ain't got no time for no costume but he'll break the walls down or something
That damn Scott Armstrong is on the take
Literal RKO Out of Nowhere
WAIT!
This isn't a bad match but I think the crowd is just pooped
JR says the Spinebuster is a big card, a pair of Aces. Never play Poker with JR
Orton has a very nice dropkick
Don't use that monitor but if you put him through a table my hands are tied!
Shouldn't they have been counted out by now?
Orton kills the ref and then goes for a pin. Your own fault, dude.
Another Sledgehammer, Randy?
I remembered Armstrong yelling "two minutes" at Triple H before he went for the pin, I'm guessing they managed to edit it out of this new mix. It seemed like they were about to work onto some other sequence but once Triple H realized they had no time he just went for the end.

Wrestlemania 26
DX Flying Jets over to CNN Center
"Fan Tay Sha!"
Step in that powder harder!
HBK: Zoom in on my crotch
Oh hey, it's green tanktop girl again
R-Truth might wind up pulling a Ronnie on the way to the ring
Crazy R-Truth would call this Wrestlerumble or something
ALL THE BELTS!
Morrison with R-Truth could have probably pulled off that "Breakdancing Lance Hoyt" gimmick TNA tried
Miz was out of the way before Morrison even started to do his move. I was expecting John to land on his feet or something
Short and sweet
Hopefully that little kid decided to pretend to be HBK on his own and he wasn't prompted to do that
Big Show: I'm stealing this kid
Ted DiBiase Jr. is the definition of wasted potential
I forgot how much I hated Cody's music
Remember that Dusty Rhodes vs. Ted DiBiase vs. Bob Orton triple threat match at Wrestlemania 7? No?
Cody's white boots stand out way too much
My cousin once misspelled "DiBiase" as "Debease" once so I've always called him "Debeezy" as an inside joke with myself
Randy: Wait a second....I love Cody, I can't do bad things to him! Or can I?!?
"Randy Orton brought out the Big Weapon" that sounds like a Nathan Jones nickname
If Maryse didn't come back this year then literally no one except for Alicia Fox in this segment would still be with WWE
I thought Singing Jillian needed a face turn
How much money did they pay Gene to get in that dress?
Melina? Take another bite!
Kofi only gets one explosion because of his stupid hair
Asian Lilian
Shouldn't the first thing you do in a ladder match is get a ladder? You can use it as a weapon to clear the ring
Matt and Christian trying to build the Aerosmith logo out of ladders but Jack Swagger is in the way
I forgot how long Shelton was in WWE. I keep getting surprised every year I see him again
Kane throws the ladder and immediately regrets his decision
Seriously Kofi, just grab another ladder....
Michael Cole is obsessed with Drew McIntyre using the back door
It's down to Christian and Matt Hardy, the two brothers that were always in the shadow
Oh, right, Jack Swagger is still in this match
The All-American All-American
Oh hi, Seth Green and Freddie Prinze Jr....oh hey, Emma Stone too
Bret: All I can say about my dad is he wasn't really that good. I'm better.
Mr. Basketball Bob Uecker
One $100 bill would have meant my Hall of Fame ticket was free but of course no money gets dropped when I go
EVERY HART EVER!
Uecker talking to Inoki made me laugh for some reason
Alright, Alright, Alright!
Mad Dog: Dogs just wanna have fun too!
"And, Tonio Inoki!"
I mated! I mated!
Countless World championships? I mean, it might take a while to count them but eventually you'd hit an end.
Imagine if Triple H had pulled a Warrior on Sheamus
This match sorta just happens. Like, they go through the motions, there's reversals, kick out at finishers, and then boom
CM Punk wants to wish Mysterio's daughter a happy birthday and somehow he's a bad guy
Was Mercury already gone at this point?
It's a shame that Serena made a spectacle of herself in front of sponsors and got herself shitcanned
Is Mysterio supposed to be a Genie with that hair thing?
I did like how they made a point to explain Festus changing into Luke Gallows instead of just trying to act like he was a different dude
Good finishing sequence but I think these two needed a little more time
I expected the music to change when Vince kicked Bret. Shock
It's only gonna take me 4 out of 10 weeks to heel from this broken leg!
Vance screwed Vance!
This whole thing didn't make much sense. At some point off camera I guess it was established that Bret's entire family hated him so Vince thinks he's got the upper hand but then it's revealed to be a ruse. The buildup and reveal lasted all of a few minutes
Is someone allowed to be a lumberjack and a referee simultaneously?
Bruce trying to figure out how to blur out everyone else to make this all about him
Bret completely destroys Vince but it still somehow takes 3 hours
Bruce actually doesn't know how to count to 10. He's also counting in a No Holds Barred match
I can only imagine what the line for the bathroom was like right now
Bret going to end it....no? F***
Couldn't Vince have just said "I Quit" by now to end his beating?
Bret's more blown up than Vince
I keep thinking Smith Hart is Regal. Or is that Wayne?
Bruce manages to steal Bret's wallet during the finish
"Bret spits in the face of Montreal" the hell did they ever do to him?
How many times has Jericho done the "friend turned foe" thing now?
Did I hear something about a Spear?
Would Edge have had so many World title reigns if he didn't get injured so often and if other people didn't get injured so often?
Edge gets a spaceship
Tony "Puberty" Chimmel
Crowd still seems pretty dead after that last match
Lionsault into an Edge-O-Matic is a nice spot
Jericho wins! and clean! I'm shocked
Edge looks like he wants to rip his own hair out
Spear off the table and sorta through the barricade
Khali is the worst at battle royals
Wow, the face Diva side is just as bad, Mickie just came back or all of these girls would be gone too
Gail Kim doesn't want any of Vickie
Finishpalooza
Vickie a little too excited and pulls Kelly's shoulders off the mat during the pin
Batista/Cena at Mania seemed like something that had been talked about years prior and then they were like "oh yeah, we forgot to do that. guess we have to now before it's too late."
I'm expecting one of these guys to transform into Cena at this rate
Batista is indifferent to fish sticks
Nasty DDT
This match is actually a huge pick me up over the last couple
Cena had to make Batista tap for this whole program to make sense
Cena vs. That Guy II
We all knew Shawn was going home. Taker losing to him would have been seen as a fluke after he won the previous year
Taker needs an elevator to get up to the stage, ain't looking good for him
Old School early in the bout
HBK's back cost him 5 years of his career. What about the drug addiction?
I remember a WWF that didn't count a man's shoulders down during a submission
I would have liked to have seen someone kip up into Sweet Chin Music
Shawn using the Ankle Lock just seems wrong
Shawn is REALLY unlucky with the moonsault
Shawn counters the Last Ride into a facebuster but no one seems to notice
Had anyone ever countered Hell's Gate into a pin? Cole just said no one did but...you know
HBK must've gotten a hell of a wedgie on that Last Ride
Taker: You told me I had to help break down the set to pay my dues? Huh? Well HERE I GO!
People don't know that there's super glue on the top of the announce table and that's why it takes so long for people to get off of it
Shawn still kind of missed the moonsault
Since Taker's leg was so bad, Shawn should have gone for Sweet Shin Music
HBK forgets the rest of his moveset and just goes for kick after kick
Where did that gash on Taker's arm come from?
Shawn grabbing Taker's junk
That's Incredible for the win

Wrestlemania 27
The Rock presents Some Wrestling Nonsense in Atlanta
CAN YOU DIG IT?
Rock just wanted to say "wrestle" a bunch of times to piss off Vince
We could use some of that wrestling you were talking about earlier
Oh, the show hasn't even started yet!
That's supposed to be a fancy car? It looks crappy
Young Paige: Someday I'm going to marry that man
Christian is always the bridesmaid
Green shirt's back
Del Rio chants
Kinda funny how Brodus started as Del Rio's muscle and now he's doing something similar in TNA
Edge has no right vandalizing someone's personal property. Maybe he thought he was playing Street Fighter II
Disfigured Cody Rhodes could have gone on for quite some time and taken several levels
I guess Captain America fought Doctor Doom a few times
Now we know where Josh learned to be a dick
The stalling superplex is scary but impressive. I want to see Cesaro do that with someone
It's weird seeing Cody doing power moves since he's so small
"Here comes the Daredevil" No, he's Captain America
Hey, it's Dos Mascaras
Both Cole and Lawler said "cooked out" but I guess Lawler was mocking Cole
Snoop Dogg literally doesn't remember the last time being at Wrestlemania
Regal with some good lines
DEMI MOORE! DEMI MOORE!
Sit down, Peanut Head
That's right, Dancing Titty Masters was a thing
Nikki B.B. aka Before Boobs
More like The Snore? Amirite?
Kane and The Big Show have united more times than I can remember
Kofi jammed into this match for shits and giggles
Clustercluck
Green shirt is not happy with that finish
Rock trying to get in Eve's pants
SHE'S OLD, GET IT?!?!?
The Punk/Orton feud had great continuity
Punk in the Nexus was not a smart move
Orton actually remembering to sell an injury from more than 2 days ago
"Don't call me, Jerry"
Punk should have called himself the Mongoose or something
Oh wait, the Anaconda Vise, that makes more sense to take out a Viper
I always wanted to see a guy go for a big move and fall over from the pain. I just got to see that
Let me go for a clothesline by propelling my head into your body and oh RKO
Pee Wee Herman should play Sheldon's father
Is Okerlund the Rock's stooge?
Abdullah looks scary as hell still
HBK: Don't look at Sunny, don't look at Sunny...
Battery Acid to the eyes! No, wait, it's just Coke
Michael Cole cutting the Andy Kaufman promo
How did Swagger get picked for this? They couldn't find anyone else?
And Austin actually letting Lawler come out last
Michael Cole burning a time out this early?
Cole's face up against the glass is a highlight
This needed to be a lot quicker but not nearly as bad as Bret/Vince
Cole screwing up the Swagger Bomb is part of the story but I wonder how well he could relaly do one
Austin should grab the towel and say "you threw in A towel, not THE towel. match continues!"
Cole going for the Reese Witherspoon play
Austin's on the take!
Enough of your music Jerry!
It's funny because Lawler doesn't drink
Austin must be pissed that they played Booker's music instead of his
If Lawler had just gone for the pinfall he would still be the winner. It's his own fault for being cocky.
Now we know why Josh is a jerk now
There's a guy standing behind the soldiers that looks like the lovechild of Jimmy Jacobs and Tyler Black
Remember when Taker lived in a shack for some reason?
No Holds Bored Match?
Those look like really ineffective shields
I just realized Cole wasn't out there anymore
Taker throws a monitor that basically lands in some guy's lap in the front row
Taker: You just broke the Cole Mine....now it's on!
Taker's dives are getting scarier and scarier
No rings necessary
Taker's finishers get weaker and weaker each year. A smart man would use two or three in a row
Trading finishers back and forth now
I think Triple H is more mad at the chair than Taker
HHH: Like seriously, why would you want the winner's share of the purse? You're rich! I have kids and a mortgage! Give me this one!
JR: NO! You can't Tombstone the Undertaker! That's not right!
HHH: How'd he kick out? I did all the mannerisms that lead to a win usually. I even stuck my tongue out!
Triple H really loves Pete Seeger
It's hard to put a submission on someone holding a hammer
The final sequence is some good storytelling but the match could have ended a lot sooner. Too much laying around.
Undertaker dies by winning. What a twist.
Drunk Taker: I'm gonna sleep under the ring! ARRGH!
Taker: Just let me under the ring so I can do a run-in during my wife's match
Dolph should have changed back to "I am Perfection" when he went heel
I had forgotten that Trish came out of retirement for this
It's funny in retrospect that Kim Kardashian was only a host and Snooki was a wrestler. I think they would look back and wish they had swapped those two.
Snooki just licked Trish's hand. Mickie James must be pissed.
GET OFFER!
Snooki shocks the world
Kinda weird that they showed Miz holding up the U.S. Title and then the WWE title.
Alex R. Schyster
Cena's entrances should be like Where's Waldo
Lettuce Spray
Stay Down is the quote of the night
Weird transition there where Cena was completely out of it and then had an offensive burst suddenly
Miz totally hit Riley on purpose with the briefcase
Double countout but Cena's arm is draped over Miz so we're gonna pretend that's a pinfall!
Rock out just to say goodnight, obviously
Is Rock completely drenched or am I seeing things?
Rock just yelled at a laptop
Since when does a host have the authority to restart a match? And what if the GM wanted to do that anyway?
Rock restarts the match just to screw Cena two seconds later
The show ends with Rock confessing his love to the Miz

Wrestlemania 28
This was my 2nd live Wrestlemania and the first one I had to travel more than an hour for. I got seated next to a big musclehead Puerto Rican guy wearing an Austin 3:16 shirt who drank literally the whole show. His reactions were more in line with a typical "mark" for lack of a better term. Cheer the babyfaces and boo the heels.
And this may be a controversial statement but the moment I got to the stadium I realized that the "YES" chants were over moreso than Daniel Bryan being over. People were doing them outside the stadium for literally no reason at all at random moments.
It all begins with baby pictures
Every time I hear "Good Feeling" I see the Wrestlemania match graphics in my head
Sheamus didn't ignite in the Miami sun
It's bone chilling? It was hotter than hell
Green shirt's back!
I actually missed the entire match while sitting back down. I sat down with my head turned away from the ring. By the time I was back in my seat the match was over.
For the record, the pop when Sheamus won was HUGE. It wasn't completely shit on like the internet would make you believe.
Vickie looking like she wants to hump that flag
Right to Censor Johnny Ace
The yearly "How do we get Randy Orton on the Wrestlemania card?" match
Chili from TLC gets no sold
Hanging rope bulldog by Orton according to Michael Cole
Kane winning was a bigger shocker than 18 seconds
This crab thing was extremely annoying
Flo Rida has a National Guard?
I never realized how this is basically the same as the last match. 2nd generation guy against a monster big guy
The Big Show "blooper reel" was pretty funny
Wrestlemania Baby Woo!
Here's a hat, little girl!
This match was a good idea but the Intercontinental title wasn't even necessary. Especially since Cody won the thing back about a month later
Big Show cries a lot
Big Show kisses some random woman right in front of her boyfriend
What are you wearing, Beth?
Eve Torres, heel everywhere except when involved with Zack Ryder
Eve just kicked Kelly in the ass
Wrestlemania is about Asses to Faces apparently
Twerk for no reason!
Jacksonville is just up 95 and not like 5+ hours away
Maria is getting the hot tag....well in theory
The End of an Era match was like 5 years worth of buildup
Evil Jim Ross with the goatee
No pyro for Shawn
Taker: I can't see with this hood in my face
Bald Head = Thunder
We need to test the strength of these fences, jump on them now...and again and again
I really wanted to see someone make Taker go through the Streak all over again, not literally face all those guys in matches but have to confront them. They could have brought back Snuka, Jake, Sid, etc
Taker felt and sensed the Pedigree on the steps coming. Couldn't he also see it coming?
F*** Off, Steps!
HBK: Don't make me DQ you for excessive punishment!
Taker just said "Don't! Stop it!"
Somehow Triple H is taking over the role of referee here
Taker puts Hell's Gate on Shawn for literally no reason
Taker just hates referees
Taker should really think of upgrading his Tombstone to a DiGiorno
I think this is the first time in a while where it looked like someone actually had a chance to end the Streak
This is good bookending with Taker now completely dominating Triple H with the chair
That was exhausting
Pyro to end the show....oh wait
Taker: You don't have to go home but you can't stay here
Tyson standing so close to Flair, it makes him look like one of the Horsemen
It's amazing that Heath Slater has been around this long
Wah wah wicka woo wah
Tyler Reks at Wrestlemania even though he quit earlier in the day
Standard Bear
I gave Johnny a standing ovation. Surprised I didn't wind up on camera. Austin fan next to me was NOT happy about me doing that.
Kofi on the blue team, comes out in red and green. Khali also in red.
It was so weird for Booker to come out of retirement for this match.
Team Captain Santino....that was your first mistake
Standard Barrier
I think I would've rather seen another battle royal to jam a bunch of guys onto the show than this
Clusterf***
Why WAS Eve in the ring? She cost them the match
Sick dick kick, chick
A-Rod with some broad
Punk: Can't you see that my wrists REALLY hurt?
There's an episode of ALF where it was revealed that ALF's parents were married before he was born and this was a huge controversy on Melmac. That's what this whole storyline reminded me of.
Punk's fireworks weren't allowed into the building
Andy Garcia looks bored
Jericho: Say hi to your mother for me
Someone finally hits a suplex from the apron
All I remember during this whole thing is the kid next to me kept freaking out because his mom hadn't come back from the concession stand yet. She asked if I would keep an eye on him so he wouldn't miss anything and offered to buy me a beer. I told her it was no problem but it took her forever to get back. She apparently was a big CM Punk fan though.
Rana into Walls of Jericho is a great spot
Jericho checking Punk for lice after tapping out
Knee On Lights, No Bell Prize
Was legit shocked that Mania 29 was going to be in the NY area. It seemed like it was supposed to be a once every 10 years type thing
I really thought about calling my mother but figured she wouldn't be able to hear me anyway
His mama named him Clay, I'm gonna call him Clay
People were actually enjoying the Brodus segment. It was nice to have a bit of a cool down between two of the main events
70,000 people were singing "We Are Young" in that stadium
People weren't really into Machine Gun Kelly from what I remember. Not sure if it was the John Cena connection or just that he wasn't that well known
Betty Skaaland would later job to Nikki Bella
Fans were a lot more interested in Flo Rida
Sometimes I get a good Philly
I actually never had a chance to see The Rock wrestle so this was a treat for me. Just another star to scratch off my list.
Rock: Let's pretend we're The Rock and Hulk Hogan Cena: But you are the Rock Rock: No, I'm Hogan, you're Rock
Rock lunges at Lawler for some reason
I thought they were chanting "Drew Carey" at The Rock for a second
The gasp when Cena hit that AA
That guy in the 2nd row in either a Flair wig or a Guy Fieri wig
Everyone knows that if you drop a man's arm two times that it's enough to get the blood and air pumping back to his brain
The slingshot into a roll up had to be a spot that Rock called. I don't remember Cena ever doing that
Cena only lost because he got too cocky. Either way, the wrong man won the match.
The celebration went on long after the show went off air. Rock even signed some guy's jersey.

Wrestlemania 29
Way to depress the hell out of us before the show
At least they didn't re-use the same sound bytes along with the same clips from the last few years
The Shield vs. Team Big Lobsters in My Head
Future Hall of Famer Snooki in the front row and "F*** Face" Beadle
Imagine if the Shield had repelled in from a helicopter
Ambrose sweating out so much whiskey
"No, you want Sheamus to look strong"
Seth's face just bounced right off the security wall
Big Show's sad that Orton tagged himself in
Skeletor is my hero
Big Show was meant to double cross his team, then he didn't, then he did anyway
Rock: I beat you already but clearly I have nothing else to prove so I only want to face you again
I couldn't remember why Mark Henry was coming out until they mentioned Ryback
The clip made it seem like Mark Henry only did 3 reps with that weight
Mark Henry's punch or kick followed by shit talk is one of my favorite things ever
Ryback looks like an unpainted Ninja Turtle statue
Ryback lifting Mark was great and it lead to a realistic finish where Ryback just collapses from the weight and knocks his wind out
Let's play with toys!
Big E and Ziggy
Is 18 Seconds the new Montreal Screwjob?
The Goat wins with The Ram Jam
Green shirt upgraded to a hoodie
Remember when a bunch of rowdy fans made everyone think Fandango was actually over when they just liked doing that chant and dance?
Is that the original Fandangirl? She was the best
A feud that started over making fun of someone's name
Jericho steals Punk's outside pyro
I don't think Jericho should wear purple ever again
They missed the boat by not calling Fandango's leg drop the Ballroom Blitz
Very awkward finish even though you could see what they were trying for
Miz going for the Figure 8 there
How can the Rock be everywhere at once? Is this a Santa Claus scenario?
Let's film a screen instead of just showing the video that's on it
Anyone else remember what happened in Ghostbusters II?
Looking at Diddy is like staring directly at the sun
World title match we'll probably see in TNA in 6 months
Is Zeb the same Zeb that was with Bradshaw or is he supposed to be a different Zeb?
Eye Talian
"Made in the USA" Alberto Del Rio
I actually liked Ricardo but apparently he was kind of a dick backstage
So that match just kinda happened
Zeb's freakout at the end is the most memorable part
CM Punk looked sicker here than when he had the staph infection
The talking urn was a bit goofy
Heyman picks up the fumble and runs it in for a touchdown
Heyman as Bearer looks like a cartoon monster
What do ashes taste like? Chicken?
It's funny how Heyman stole the "1 in 21-1" bit from Punk
Having a live performance for a wrestler makes them seem like such a babyface
Undertaker was too embarrassed to admit that he lost his hat
It's like CM Punk was the first to realize that Taker getting DQ'd or counted out still counted as a loss.
Punk's Taker-inspired trunks were great though
I never noticed the "RIP PB" on Taker's left leg til now
If Heyman holds up the urn shouldn't that help give The Undertaker power?
The table didn't break....ouch
Hey, Punk just turned Hell's Gate into a sloppy pin
Taker no sells Go to Sleep into a Tombstone
Most people don't do foreign object spots to the back of the neck like that
Slow count, referee
Punk shouldn't have come back until the build up to Summerslam. When Heyman announced he'd be facing Jericho, Punk should have "no showed" and then come back later mad at Heyman for booking him into a match without his consent. That's how the Punk/Brock program should have started
I thought Rock/Cena was next because of another John Cena video
HHH: The second I cut my hair, I felt better
HHH should have signed the contract with Heyman's blood
Why was Shawn there again?
Has anyone asked Brock what his favorite sandwich is from Jimmy John's?
"Brock has a mouse under his left eye" and a gerbil in his....sorry
ROARRRRR!!!!!
It's crazy how we have an hour left and only one match to go once this is done
Once the career stipulation was added you knew Triple H was getting the win back, it was just a matter of how
Imagine if the finish of the match had been the slap to the face
Sweet Chin Music with a loaded boot!
Brock: Phew, he almost broke my arm, let me just stay here for a second....oh shit! AHHHH! Ok, got out of it again, let me just catch my....AHHHH! Fool me once shame on you! Fool me twice....
Trish: I just have really bad gas
Bob Backlund about to turn into the Hulk
We were saving all this pyro for the Bellas match, just shoot it off now because the ring announcer said a big number
I remember everybody being mad or finding it weird that there was no pre-main event hype video or special entrances. But we got videos about the match all night. To me it was like "Enough talk, it's time to fight."
Rock should have worn blue for no apparent reason
I keep thinking that dude in the front is Kevin Smith for some reason
It feels like they're just going through the motions here
That's the first time I can remember someone reversing the People's Elbow into a submission
I totally fell for Rock losing the same way Cena lost the year before
Cena should have used a Stunner on Rock to win
Hogan's music didn't play after he lost to Warrior, what gives?
Betty Skaaland dumped John Cena for the Rock!

Wrestlemania 29 Remember when a bunch of rowdy fans made everyone think Fandango was actually over when they just liked doing that chant and dance? FAN had me convinced as well. And Opie & Anthony. IIRC, it was. She'd been replaced by that point, mainly because she was an actual dancer who had other jobs and was phased out due to scheduling, but I believe they did call her back for WM29 to be her final appearance (and for I hope a nice payday as a way to thank her for actually helping to get the gimmick over).
