Year after year my instincts are usually right about the biggest PPV of the year. I had a good feeling about last year's and it turned out to be a solid show.
This year, even though only a couple of matches have been confirmed, I get the sense that it's going to be a great WrestleMania. I'm not being a mark, I just think that the atmosphere at Ford Field combined with the extended main event build-up, main stream media attention on the Trump match, etc., should lend to a very good show.
I'd like to know how others' mindsets are approaching this year's WrestleMania.

My gut tells me I'm fat.
But, as for Mania "Don't order."

I'm not feeling anything*, and that usually works in my advantage.

I wasn't high on last year's Mania, and it was a pleasant surprise. I'm still not ordering this one, as I can find better things to do with $50, but I have a really good feeling about the show this year. The main events are both great, and they have lots of options for a very strong undercard. It's looking good, I like it.

I want Mania to be good, but we've got the same problem that we had last year - it's being treated like its lust any ol' PPV. And that's not making me want to order it.

But, as for Mania "Don't order." Why? Same reason I dont watch the weekly shows anymore. I hate Batista, Cena, and Orton, Hogan won't be there, and ECW is a joke now.

It seems like this year, perhaps more than any other, they're giving it an awesome slow burn towards April 1st. Now Way Out, Smackdown!, RAW and SNME are all just building towards it. It's being treated like the biggest show of the year from where I sit.

I always watch 'Mania, and I thought last year's was great. The problem is though, there hasn't been a single match announced that I really want to see.
My gut tells me it's gonna be good, because it's Mania in Detroit, but I'm gonna have to wait for more matches to be announced to see if I'm actually gonna end up watching it.

I have high hopes, if only because I'm finally going to a Wrestlemania...

I am looking forward to it. This could possibly be the best mania since XIX. I think the HBK/Cena match will be great, while Taker/Batista may not be as good I would still mark for one more Taker title win, and i am actually looking forward to the hair vs. hair match since i couldn't imagine either man bald.
Throw in a TLC or MITB and a few good undercard matches and you got yourself a show.

I think most of us are going to be shocked at just how many people are going to be in the crowd at Wrestlemania 23. We haven't exactly been used to really big crowds in a while. I mean, I sometimes think that when they have 20,000 fans ( the norm around 1998 ) It looks like alot, but try 4 times that. The crowd won't be quite as big as the Wrestlemania 3 crowd ( which will finally shatter the 78,000 myth) but it will be close.

As long as I have the day off, I will go see WrestleMania at a bar or something. Otherwise, I'll just get the DVD, since I have all the rest.

That's what I'll probably do. I'm definitely not gonna order it at my house, that wasn't even a question.
