First of 2 successive Mania openers for Regal. Were those his only 2 Mania matches? Lovely suplex there Was 18 against RVD ? I remember a suplex where RVD landed badly. Regal chest took a beating. That’s right |

Just saw one of those foam sign glove things with HHH's logo on. Whatever happened to those things? They still make them occasionally. I have a New Day foam unicorn horn and they gave everyone on the Jericho Cruise free foam fingers. |

This must have been crazy to watch at the time, given that the WWF hadn’t run a large stadium like this for WrestleMania since 1992. As someone who watched it live it was amazing. |

Also I was so hyped about this PPV that the following morning I was all stoked for recess so I could use the teacher's computer to look up the results on WWF.com

RTC was a pretty cool idea tbh with the pimp and pornstar changing their ways.

So with Vince just buying WCW and this show this must have been WWE’s best ever week.
Apart from making Jericho Doink obviously

RTC was a pretty cool idea tbh with the pimp and pornstar changing their ways. It was a neat way of toning down the product in a way that didn't put the heat on the WWF. It's something that should have been similarly done in 2008 when the rating of the show changed. |

Bull Buchanan was great at that move from the top rope but nothing else comes to mind.
