Wrestling's come too far for it to ever create something with a Wrestlemania III feel again and this year will be no different. This year you have no real mega, recognizable-even-by-non-wrestling-fans star competing in the event (closest being John Cena who is no where near the level of mainstream popularity Hogan was at WMIII). Plus, and this is just my opinion, the buildup for the matches this year has failed to incite any real mark-out excitement or anticipation. Maybe it's because there are two face/face main events. I find myself wishing to feel for Wrestlemania 23 the way I felt for past Wrestlemania's like 3, 6, 14, 15, 17 but it's just impossible given what the booking has been going into this event over the past few weeks.
