Already got it ordered in HD, only ppv I buy all year, can't wait

Supreme Olajuwon 04-01-2012 01:16 PM

Due in large part to the successful use of WrestleMania hype threads, I can say that I am fairly hyped for this occasion.

Gonzo 04-01-2012 01:16 PM

Nowadays I'm only a casual wrestling observer but I'm mildly excited for this card. Should be some fantastic matches on this card.

whiteyford 04-01-2012 01:18 PM

The only match i'm not really that interested in is the Divas match but even that should be a passable 5mins.

Innovator 04-01-2012 01:24 PM

Pretty pumped for this show, and the added buzz made it more "must watch".

Can't wait for Punk/Jericho.

Volare 04-01-2012 01:26 PM

I have to work tonight so I'm avoiding the site till I get a torrent. Till then enjoy Mania!

Gonzo 04-01-2012 01:27 PM

Got in a brief tiff the other day with someone at work; I said Punk/Jericho would be the best match on the card (he said HIAC.)

Innovator 04-01-2012 01:40 PM

I think the bigger spectacle will be HIAC. Better "pure" match will be Punk and Jericho.

Frank Drebin 04-01-2012 01:40 PM

Seems like it was just last week they announced Rock/Cena and everyone wondered how they would keep the feud going for a full year. Got to hand it to WWE, they did a good job with it, but the build has never been a problem for them. Now comes time for some sort of payoff.....

Corporate CockSnogger 04-01-2012 01:48 PM

Not sure whether to just watch on a stream or go round to watch it with a few guys who don't watch wrestling but are ordering it for something to do.

Yes. Punk/Y2J has the potential to be the Steamboat/Savage of this show. I dont really mind if it opens the show, but it will be odd that the first match for the last two PPVs has been for the WWE Title.

If I said odds of blood in the HIAC match were 1 in 9 would anyone take that bet?

Jordan 04-01-2012 01:54 PM

For the first time WWE had created water cooler discussion at my work. I am stoked.

You'll have to talk a lot and miss the show.

I always enjoy the comradery (sp?), the booze, and the chance to explain things to get the casual fans more into it. People with open minds are very receptive to that stuff and if they are ordering it they probably are. To me, its like watching a favorite movie with someone who hasnt seen it before.

Corporate CockSnogger 04-01-2012 02:04 PM

Dunno, don't think I can be bothered explaining anything to them. Although the "missing the show" part that Fragile X mentioned wouldn't bother me either. If I'm watching on a stream I'll be flicking between tabs anyway. Doesn't really bother me if I miss bits of matches.

Corporate CockSnogger 04-01-2012 02:05 PM

Probably just stay and watch a stream.

Jordan 04-01-2012 02:06 PM

I just bought the feed from WWE.com

I AM A GOOD MAN

Jordan 04-01-2012 02:07 PM

If it sucks though I'll switch to a stream :(

Jordan 04-01-2012 02:08 PM

I feel like WWE deserves my money, hell 54 bucks for a year of entertainment is how I see it.

Rhaps 04-01-2012 02:13 PM

Also just here to register my excitement for tonight. Haven't watched a proper wrestling show that wasn't a quick Youtube video in too long, but have this booked and will be up until the early hours of the morning here in England ready.

My money's on Sheamus/Bryan opening the show.

I am seriously considering doing this as well after utterly failing to find any bars showing the PPV in East Syracuse.

Has anyone here had good experiences ordering PPV's from WWE.com?

Lock Jaw 04-01-2012 02:46 PM

You know what I'm pumped for tonight?

The INEVITABLE Brodus Clay/Rikishi DANCE SEGMENT.

Fox 04-01-2012 02:55 PM

If Ernest Miller joins them, it will truly be a WrestleMania moment.

Mr. C 04-01-2012 03:00 PM

SPOILER: show
I wouldn’t mind The Miz attacking The Rock and John Cena looking like he’s going to win, and then having Brock Lesnar’s music hit… so many possibilities. I’m getting hot just thinking about it!

I posted a thread on this a month ago, everyone gave WWE.com a good review. It's not HD but it's a good stream.

Evil Vito 04-01-2012 03:05 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Gonna spend $9 on a reliable stream. Used it for the Rumble and it worked great. If it fucks up for whatever reason, I'll have to try my luck with a free stream.</font>

Gonzo 04-01-2012 03:14 PM

I can't conceive any scenario where sitting high up at a wrestling event would be any fun.

MoFo 04-01-2012 03:15 PM

Is it weird that one of the main reasons I wanna see this is for Taker revealing his bald head?

Also, wonder how bad the crowd will be in the main event, cant be worse for Cena than MITB, surely?

Fox 04-01-2012 03:17 PM

You can always watch the screens.

Just gonna try the free stream. It is enough that I am ripping them off, kind of don't want to give profit to someone else for it. Even if it is just $9.

Corndad 04-01-2012 03:55 PM

Should be a tremendous show. Jericho and Punk will put on a clinic. I hope they give the World Title match more time the the other under card matches but I have my doubts about that. At least Sheamus and Bryan are assured their spot on Mania this year.

The Crowd will make Rock-Cena. I might actually cheer for Cena as I've really enjoyed what he has brought over the last few weeks.

I really had no interest in HHH-Taker until they added the Cell and that completely changed it for me. Even though most likely we all know the ending, it's the uncertainty how we will get there that will make it a fun match to watch.

Corporate CockSnogger 04-01-2012 04:51 PM

Turns out I'm going to my friends house tonight now instead of watching on a stream. Gonna have to not use any terms that casual fans won't know cause they won't have a clue what I'm going on about.

Droford 04-01-2012 04:53 PM

Im watching the intro videos in order to all the WM, and the first 10 are pretty good and then we get to this:
