...it was WrestleCrap. Ouch. wrestlecrap.com/newinduction1.htmlThat puts it down there with 2 and 9 as the only shows deemed bad enough by our former overlords to be inducted into their hallowed halls. I mean, it wasn't great by any stretch, but... it wasn't THAT bad... was it?

I would've inducted The Rock's promo to kick off the show, and the main event. Other than that, no, it wasn't SO bad at all.

No it wasn't. It had the match of the year on it.

Yeah, it was fairly awful. The only think I still remember fondly is Cody going over Rey.

I still would have inducted XI before 27.
I mean, 27 was bad and all, but a lot of people have been wanting to see XI inducted for ages--me included.

Other than Cole/Lawler and the opening Rock bullshit it was fine. This just typical overreaction, like saying a restaurant sucked because the appetizer sucked and the drinks weren't cold enough.

No it wasn't. It had the match of the year on it. This thread is about Money in the Bank? Odd. I don't think Mania 27 deserves an induction, just Cole/Lawler, Miz/Cena, and Rock shenanigans.

Let's see you had Edge vs ADR, Rey vs Cody, Punk vs Orton, Taker vs Trips, Eve looking amazing, Ryder singing, Rock and Austin, The Miz video package, the giant inflatable AWESOME!, and the cube.
Mania 27 wasn't Wrestlecrap. Disappointing? Yes. Wrestlecrap? No.

Not even the worst PPV of the Spring/Summer never mind the year. Sensationalistic bullshit.

it's very odd reading an article about an entire PPV being Wrestlecrap and seeing 4 of the matches listed as "really good."

One thing that this induction made me wonder:
How will the generations of the future look at Ryder's rendition of Friday? Will anybody be there to tell future generations about how annoying that song was at the time?

Wait a minute, Wrestlecrap's inducting a wrestling PPV from early 2011... and its not Victory Road?

It was the first Wrestlemania I had ordered since XIV. I thought it was perfectly fine, and I was well aware that Wrestlemanias nowadays feature a handful of goofy backstage segments.
Not spectacular by any means, but it had a lot of good moments. It is far from Wrestecrap. The writer just seems jilted because Sheamus/Bryan was bumped.

This thread is about Money in the Bank? Odd. Triple H vs Undertaker >> Punk vs Cena Yes yes, I'm well aware of your over the top hatred of Punk/Cena (calling it overrated is fine, but the most boring match ever? Never seen Big Show/Kane from KOTR '99 or about 800 billion other matches?). This is why reactionary inductions shouldn't be done, unless they're so bad (Victory Road 2011 not being inducted yet is ludicrous) that it must happen. Give it a few years, and people will realize 27 was just a fringe below average Mania.

I thought WM 27 was the shits, but this induction was a little too opinionated and too smarky. It should be noted that one of the usuals didn't induct it.

I'd have inducted Victory Road over this. At least WWE never had to compensate viewers at home as an apology for the irresponsible actions of either Cena or Miz.
Granted, 'Mania 27 did have some awful booking, a lousy main event, and a poor sense of time management, but I'd still watch it over Over the Limit or Capitol Punishment.
