It's too long. I think they should cut it down to two hours. Gets wayyyy too much hype. Too flashy and stage is too large. They do it over and over every year. It's really starting to get old. Any other complaints about this drab ppv?

I think in terms of accomplishing what they set out to do, put on the biggest flashiest show of the year and make lots and lots of money doing so, it's been a huge success. I also think that their approach to it is so big and so flashy that it just can't be that great of a wrestling show.

What about those horrible main events? They've never had a single great main event. Always some boring match with the lousiest wrestlers. I usually shut if off before the main event and tune into a golf game.

I was actually thinking the exact opposite the other day. WrestleMania is awesome. It's the one time watching WWE feels like a huge event. Even if it's disappointing (and many of them have been) it's still a pretty great spectacle.

It's really starting to get old. Funny, that's my opinion on these parody threads.

Two hours would be ridiculous. I think the problem for WM these days is that it thinks it sells itself. If it weren't for the growth of international PPV buys, WM, by traditional north American market standards, doesn't really sell that well at all these days.
I dislike the way they have to fit everyone on the card. Too much emphasis is put on cramming people in. I also hate how one of the matches advertised is on the preview show. The PPV is four hours long for God sake.

What about the streak? The undertaker is the worst and most undeserving wrestler of all time. He should have lost his first match! Long boring entrance. No one wants to see this crap. I'd rather watch a 60 minute divas match!

I usually shut if off before the main event and tune into a golf game. Oh I agree. Actually great wrestling matches are becoming harder and harder to find at Wrestlemania, particularly in the main events. Hopefully one day they will change it up (whether by choice or necessity) and see what happens.

Oh it's a parody thread. I love jokes that keep on going. I find I often laugh more at a joke if it's hammered home like someone drilling a nail right into my head.
POW! Right in the kisser...

Wayyyyyyy too much pyro! Think of all the money wasted on pyro that could be spent on finding good talent. We want wrestling not an early 4th of July!

Maybe if it was only two matches per WM it would be better. No one cares about other throwaway matches anyways.

I guess the sad thing about this thread is that (at least I feel) there are truly valid and substantial criticisms of WM and what it has become in the past 6 years or so.

I was about to post how it's regularly the worst event of the year, but these last few months have actually saved it from that fate.

So you want to turn WrestleMania into an episode of Smackdown?

I'd rather watch a 60 minute divas match! I'd actually want to see this. If only for the moment 6 minutes in where they kinda stand there confused as to what to do because they've already done all the moves they know.

So you want to turn WrestleMania into an episode of Smackdown? Only if we're lucky and Undertaker can't wrestle. A quick pre-show. America the Beautiful. One all around unifying match with Cena & Hogan for all titles. Random singer does 3-4 songs. Divas 60 minute match. Finished. Show rating: 9.7/10
