6/10 at best for me
As far as Manias go it doesn't even crack top 10

I gave it 4/10.
*Big Show winning the battle royal. GTFO. *The ladder match had its moments with the Stardust ladder (hilarious), but it was the same stuff we'd seen before. They need to stop these. *Orton vs Rollins was a good match and THAT RKO might just be his best ever. Insane! *The concert was as expected a waste of time. Kid Ink is terrible. *HHH vs Sting was abysmal. Just made no sense and Sting losing was insult to insult. JBL needs to be fired. Felt bad for King trying to put Sting over while the other two were trying to bury him. This storyline makes no sense at all and HHH wins another match he had no buisness even being in anyway. *Rusev's entrance is awesome. But then Cena breaks his submission. Then pins him clean. Then Rusev walks away from Lana. He's finished. *The Divas match wasn't terrible, but come on it's Mania and I just watched Athena vs Mia Yim from Shimmer yesterday tear the house down. Not good enough. *The Rock segment was dire. HHH buries Sting despite shaking his hand. Steph talks shit an I was begging for someone to shut them up before instantly wishing they wouldn't when the Rock's music hit. Steph emasculates him. Rock saying he would NEVER hit a woman... Roussey being put over because they can't give the Divas a chance and Roussey didn't even take Steph to the mat really? That's it. Plus Rock vs HHH teased for Mania Star Sign... in 2016.... This company is clueless. *Undertaker puts an end to Bray Wyatt once and for all. Why this match couldn't have been Sting vs Undertaker will be debated about for years. Screw your ego HHH. Dean Ambrose was sacraficed to Bray Wyatt who was sacraficed to Undertaker. Sigh. *The main event was perfectly booked. Roman's not ready as well all know so it is good that the WWE agree. Matches like this will help Roman in the long term and he comes out of this looking good.
The main event was awesome, but they had Big Show, Undertaker, John Cena, Randy Orton & HHH win and spent 20 minutes putting Rock and Steph over in 2015! Meanwhile Rusev and Wyatt's careers are now at critical point and Sting lost his debut match. After giving the fans what they wanted last year this was them giving themself the show that Vince wanted (outside the main event which was class).

I'll say between a 5 and a 6.
Ladder match was kind of pointless, Orton/Rollins told a decent story but didn't do much for me (nice ending, though), Sting/Trips was dumb fun that became almost insultingly bad during the ending, Divas match was harmless, Rusev and Wyatt were both pointlessly fed to older guys in ok-not-great matches, and the nonstop ads, breaks, promos, stalling, and lack of actual wrestling was actually making me agitated as I was watching. I couldn't stop thinking of all the extra matches/feuds they could've featured if they weren't intent on ignoring most of their roster.
Main event was solid, though, even if I thought Brock should've stayed champion. Would've done the match psychology differently, but the way they went still worked. Endings count for a lot in wrestling, so it boosts the overall grade just a bit beyond mediocre.

Just adding my voice to the Sting/JBL/HHH bringing it down a full point. I don't know what's bigger, HHH's ego or JBL's "NEED TO BURY".
