My dude Orton is about to steal the show. His style of wrestling, selling, emoting and acting will completely suit an empty arena. So I was wrong as always. Dude let me down.

DeJoseph is with WWE now?!! He came back recently after Lucha Underground folded. He was in WWE before as a writer, and occasionally on-screen as Big Dick Johnson. Sucks as LU is the best wrestling show ever imo, but that's good for him at least.

Is this the first Wrestlemania that features a scripted/intended use of the word βShitβ? Not including accidental utterances or ones that were not supposed to be picked up by the microphones.

I definitely think there were more positives than negatives over the two nights. I was pretty happy with the effort (from the company...the wrestlers pretty much always give effort) overall after a few weeks of them just finding ways to fill TV time.

Okay pre-WrestleMania I wasnβt going to watch it, hell I wasnβt even going to read the results and I was sincere in that belief and I couldnβt believe WWE was going ahead with it
After the first night with the Boneyard match. My friend just flat out told me that I needed to watch that match at least and so I did and I thought it was great
Second night I watched Edge & Orton (wish I hadnβt), Lesnar/McIntyre (Since I knew it was quick plus nice to see a fellow countryman win the belt) and the Firefly Fun House match which may have been the greatest single thing I have since in wrestling for some time
Still think that made a mistake having the show even though I understood to an extent why but from that mistake came the Firefly Fun House match so something good came out of it

So did any result legit leak from this or was it just basically who didn't make it that leaked?

Today I learned that purple is a verb, as well as a fruit. And a drink.

Boneyard at page 164. Funhouse starts at page 355.

So, this was the first WrestleMania to have a post-show dark match. That's... neat...

The entire time WrestleMania was actually a three night event in disguise.

WEEEEEEEEEEELL
i thoroughly enjoyed that whole thing
night one was exceptionally good, with only the universal title match being lacking, though that's because of their move sets
night two was slightly lesser ..... black and lashely being decent filler, the profits a bit too short but good entrance for bianca, and yeah drew and brock but HELL YEAH DREW IS THE CHAMP!!!
but ..... and i may be in the minority here, heh whats new ..... but i thought the last man standing match was OUTSTANDING, a near 40 minute brutalisation of both guys, unrelenting and vicious with some really good shSTUFF in the performance center but it's a pity they didn't utilise that mega ladder! imagine edge jumping off THAT onto orton on top of the truck!!!
and then there was the firefly funhouse match, which after the boneyard fight, was quite frankly the most unique thing wwe have EVER DONE!
BRILLIANT storytelling loads of callbacks surprise after surprise sod that line, ramblin' rabbit on keyboards is the BEST!!! so SO different and an astonishing delight! a surrealist madness .....
AND drew had a defense after it?!?

For UK viewers, both nights of WrestleMania 36 will be airing for "free" (i.e. with a subscription) on BT Sport this weekend.
