Personally I'd say Mania 27, as shit as it is, is WAY better than both 29 and 32. 32 is just an absolutely miserable slog that feels like it's never going to end and all the way just crushes your hopes again and again and again and again, while 29 is just a boring mess with nothing even kind of good on it and the whole thing just feels ridiculously small-time. At least 27 has Taker / Triple H, Cody / Rey, and Orton / Punk as pretty good matches, Mania 29's sole highlight is just a solid but unspectacular Punk / Taker one. And also Mania 29's time management is just appallingly bad. Both the one women's match and the Intercontinental title match got cut because they didn't have time for them, despite the fact there were only eight matches on the main show and five of them didn't make it to 11 minutes. Ranking 27 vs 32's card as a whole is actually fairly difficult, because they are both bad for different executions. 27 is filled with a bunch of shitty short matches and it has literally the worst match in Wrestlemania history in its midcard. 32's ring work is miles ahead of 27's matches for the most part, but the match finishes and overall booking are way worse in almost every instance, culminating in one of Mania's all time disappointing performances in history with Ambrose vs. Lesnar. After 18 Seconds happened, I felt annoyed for the rest of WM 28's duration, even though it did hilariously backfire later by turning the crowd against Sheamus that year, while Bryan got really over and became what he is today.

Reigns and Hunter felt like it was never going to end. Typical modern day boring HHH Mania match.

Miz vs Cena for me.
As much as Reigns vs Lesnar/HHH/Taker/Lesnar sucked, at least they didn't have a seasoned main eventer being so stupid to ram his opponent over the barricade when the referee was counting him out and he was the challenger.
