... of course, it would eliminate any confusion if they just gave it a name.
And WWE actually used said name. They kinda are inconsistent with named manuvers and will sometimes go "and there IT is" insead of saying what "it" is for those who don't know. |

So the shit about Lesnar sabotaging the match is obviously bullshit, but they're saying Taker went to the hospital for concussion like symptoms.
Wondering if it's possible that in his dazed state, Taker mistook the 3 count for 2. Not that far fetched. Fans weren't the only ones who looked confused. The ref, and even Lesnar himself looked like they were lost. |

I was reading all these rumors about Taker having to be rushed to the hospital afterward on Twitter too but I was hesitant to post anything until I saw at least a link to a source.
It would definitely fucking suck if they did fuck up the ending but I'd imagine the referee is aware of the ending and can bullshit a "shoulder's up" or something. It's happened before. |

Yeah, could all be nonsense, but still fun to speculate.

I think the WWE needs to bring in Kazarian, just so they can team him with Cesaro and get the more accurately named Cesarian section.

Thought that said "Kizarny" at first glance. I like that option better.

Had a few hours sleep and it still hasn't sunk in. How are they going to use this going forward? On a plus side, the Network streamed pretty smoothly throughout although I ended up a few mins behind.

Ended up watching Taker / Brock, the Divas match & the main event.
The finish for Taker / Brock just came out of nowhere. Shocking? Yes. Beautifully done? Not sure. But, it has me intrigued about the future for both. Is Taker done? Will Brock have a full schedule? Hopefully, only good comes out of it. The Divas match was fun for what it was, although i hated the idea of everyone being tossed outside the ring, followed by individual spots. Too fake. Absolutely fine with AJ's win. The main event was a solid match, with the finish we've all been waiting for. And that was the problem. Was the pop when Batista finally tapped gargantuan? I'm not sure. Maybe it was the exhaustion, maybe i was still trying to get over Taker's loss. But it didn't generate the response i expected it to. Leads me to think if the thrill of the chase is better than the victory itself? Hope not. I haven't seen Cena / Wyatt yet, but overall, this was a solid Mania. |

It's ok, Wyatt did enough. If they book the next few weeks right, he'll remain relevant. He had a few spots that genuinely creeped me out. Tonight, the smark crowd will be swaying and singing 'The whole world in his hands'. You're right though, this Wrestlemania has pushed the newer talent to the front and it's exciting. |

Cena didn't need the win and it wouldn't affect his standing one bit had he lost. If he'd put Bray over clean it would have given him a huge rub, at least it wasn't the Super Cena routine.

Being there for SCSA and the Rock was magical
Hogan got some intenese heat for saying the "Silverdome". Lesnar is awesome. Cesaro and Bryan got the biggest pops next to SCSA and the Rock. I was the only person marking out for Santino. |

People seem to want Cena to lose to every younger guy as if Cena himself has been in "pass the torch" mode for years now. He hasn't been. He's still a full-time star and the face of the company. Just being in a competetive match with Cena for a guy who has only been in the company for around 9 months is HUGE for Wyatt and signifies his arrival as a star of the future. Hogan didn't really NEED any of his wins past WrestleMania 3 just to keep him in good standing. But he got them. And he shoulder have. You build a guy up to make his matches draw people in and keep his wins and losses memorable, not to wait til he's established and then just job him out to the all the younger guys just because he doesn't NEED to win anymore.

Overall a great Wrestlemania to watch tonight. Enjoyed pretty much every part of it.
Like millions of others and all of the arena, I could not believe Taker got pinned. Absolute shock. Taker should get the last half an hour of Raw tomorrow and a standing ovation from every single person in the building. I am glad in my first live wrestling event I was able to see Taker's last WM win in person, too. The way they did Bryan's story tonight was outstanding. It may have been the obvious route but it was the right one. Crowd was amazing despite what Asmo was questioning, and he gave a great ending to a great Wrestlemania. |

really enjoyable show, but then again i also thought it looked good on paper. taker/lesnar still seems weird to me. it wasn't a very good match as far as telling a story goes, or even as far as spots go. i have no problem with the streak ending because it definitely should have at some point. not sure if lesnar was the right guy, but that will ultimately be determined by what they do from here. does he automatically step into the title scene? i'd imagine he has to. where else is there to go?

I really wanted Cena to go full Sith mode and join the dark side. Not terribly upset that he won; the match itself was phenomenal and Wyatt still goes over huge despite the loss. But I think it would have been a much more impactful finish if Cena gave in to the dark side and started choking bitches with the Force

Day after, and I still can't believe the streak is over. Seems so surreal to me.
I hope Undertaker isn't done. He should get his win back on Lesnar next year, and then have a few more Manias if he has it in him. Would be an interesting time because him winning is no longer a given. |

Man did you watch that match? He clearly does not "have it in him" anymore. That was a mercy killing if anything. Now that the streak is over, don't further taint it by clinging on way past his prime and leave people with a sour taste in their mouths when they think upon his last ever matches.

Catching up to everything that happened after the Bryan/Triple H match but so far:
Didn't expect the Shield match to be that big of a squash. The 2 guys in the Triple powerbomb spot was nice. Ceasaro winning the Andre battle royale. crowd Fandangoing during the match. The Kofi save spot was nice. Bray getting the special entrance was great. Match was good but meh at Cena winning. Would have been a lot more interesting storyline-wise had Bray won but then again Cena basically shrugged off the fear/legacy aspect of it last week. |

I'm find with Cena winning. It is the first part of their feud and Bray's whole talking point was that he didn't care if he won as long as Cena became a monster. Cena showed flashes of it, which is a great chapter 1 to their feud.
Also, if you watched that entire show and felt the need to complain about Cena winning a middle of the card match, fuck off. |

Really, though, Taker only has himself to blame for losing that match. He exploded the casket meant for Brock... He had nowhere to put him.

They were conjured by the witch doctor, tailor made and enchanted for WMXXX?

I think Bryan and takers shocking nights overshawdowed it but I think that cena wyatt match was amazing.
Wyatt is a star after that. |

Also, no one in the wwe "needs" a win and the whole notion is fucking silly.
