I'm just watching the replay now while in a more sober mindset, its not been as bad as some are suggesting, though the commentary's been pretty shit up until JR arrived.

Did anyone else like Taker's little "dementia" gimmick where he kept "shadowboxing" and going on almost like he didn't know where he was or whether the match was over? I loved it and thought it was a cool and nice little touch.

I'm thinking they're going to do something with it and maybe they're setting up Taker's last run to make him 20-0 at Mania next year before he retires.

I think it was just so they could take him off TV for the next ten months to be honest. He won the match, "but at what cost?" type deal...

Granted, it wasn't HBK vs Taker, but all things considered, HHH vs Taker was a great match and I don't get how some folks didn't enjoy it.

I hope Cena is Taker's next opponent, this year was too early for it but next year is perfect timing.

I liked the show. I thought the Taker Triple H match was really good aside from the fact that I didn't understand why Triple H was taking pity on Taker mid match. Just pin him and end the streak.
Even though I was sad Cena lost, I thought the end of the match was entertaining. Plus Cena's chase for the title is usually more entertaining than the reigns.

What is the line I've seen in the forum as of late?

I believe it is...

"haters gonna hate"

I loved the match. I wouldn't try to compare it to HBK/Taker either

Yeah I thought it was awesome that Rock cost Cena the match. There will definitely be some repurcussions since The Rock decided he had the power to change the match.

MAYBE WHEN WE FIND OUT KEVIN NASH IS THE RAW GM... lol... I can dream...

Not the greatest Mania ever, but far from the worst..... HHH/Taker wound up being a lot better of a match than I thought...... Cole/King went on far too long and Sheamus/Bryan shouldn't have been demoted.....

Overall, 6.5/10

I agree with the Sheamus part. Considering the pay per view run time had the extra 15 minutes tacked on to it, and it ended just before 11, they could have had a ten minute US Championship match.

This is exactly how I felt as I was watching it and I feel the same way this morning. There were a few great things about Mania, including the Taker/Triple H match, but overall I am disappointed with the show and I don't think it lived up to the hype at all. It pains me to say it, because I've been a fan of the WWE longer than some people here have been on this planet, but it's honestly how I feel. The Cena/Miz match blew big time, especially the ending. This was the first time that a WrestleMania disappointed me.

Thought the crowd wasn't as hot as it could have been, and I feel that brought down the PPV for me. Mind you, this was likely more to do with being in a stadium than anything else.

Sheamus/Bryan being kicked off really disappointed me, especially when Cole/Lawler went so long (more on that later). They could have easily shaved a minute or two off a few matches and put it on.

Didn't like Rock's opening promo. It made it feel like RAW, and it felt like it dragged on. It should have been shorter. But I do understand why they did it.

Edge/Del Rio opening confused me being the opener and didn't feel right that they were jerking. Otherwise, okay match.

Ryder doing "Friday" cracked me up.

Cody/Rey was easily Match of the Night for me. Really great psychology in this one. Hope Cody goes far this year.

Corre/Team Show... Pretty much what I expected, tbh.

Orton/Punk was good. It started a bit slow but gained steam throughout the match, which is a good thing.

Lawler vs. Cole was a let down. Cole definitely needed some offense, but his portion of the match went on WAY too long. They should have done something within two or three minutes, had him run into the Colemine and let Lawler take over from there. Also, having Cole win was a bit ridiculous. HOWEVER, I have a feeling this will lead to Cole becoming a non-commentating character. In which, case, it's fine. I'm just wondering if it'll be leading to a rematch.

Undertaker vs. Triple H was an odd one. I was into it, and I enjoyed it, but there was something off about it. It felt like a really sluggish match and the crowd didn't feel as into it as I felt they should have been at points. it was a "solid" match, but it was NOT match of the night. Despite having the tools and spots NEEDING to feel "epic", it just didn't feel epic to me. Again, solid match, but not epic.

Snooki match was whatever. LOL at Morrison posing behind Snooki making the pin.

The main event was an okay match. It felt like a standard Cena match. The double count out, though, was ridiculous, and absolutely didn't need to happen. They should have had Rock come down during the match instead, or something. The count out completely killed the flow of the match. Also, even though it was "restarted", I felt a bit ripped off that the fucking Mania main event ended in a draw. You just don't do that, restarting the match or not.

With that said, I've heard people bitching about Mania closing with Rock. While I'd prefer the current generation to be standing tall, if they're going to be doing Rock vs. Cena in the near future, it was the right thing to do. If they DON'T have Rock for at least one match, then the last segment was terrible. It all depends on what the followup is.

Overall, it wasn't the WORST Mania, but it's not near the top. C+ rating I'd say. I think I was more let down this year than any show, because I felt like there was so much potential. I won't say the ball was dropped, but they fucked something up.

THIS!

I just think they built it up for Lawler to get his moment, why not give it to him
Yeah, Lawler losing his first (and probably only) WM match was one of the many disappointing parts of the show, IMO. For the life of me, I don't understand why he was screwed like that.

Oh, and while I loved Miz's entrance, Cena's entrance was one of the most absurd bit of wrestling I've ever seen. Since when is Cena religious? I just couldn't believe they did that.

Probably Cena's most ridiculous entrance ever.

The fact that it didn't happen last night is another thing that made WM disappointing. Sure, from a marketing perspective, I can see the need to keep him face. But with The Rock back, now would have been the perfect time to turn Cena heel and it should have happened at Mania.

Dunno why people are bitching about the ending, doesn't 'bury' anyone whatsoever. It was the only way it could end.

Lara Emily is such an emo.

Looking at the card beforehand there was nothing amazingly special to get your hopes sky high, it was never going to be comparable to Wrestlemania 17, so I dont see how anyone can feel 'letdown' or 'disappointed'.

In fact, it exceeded expectations by a mile for me, a really enjoyable event where the lesser matches picked up the pace ie Orton/Punk & Cody/Rey, and some genuinely great moments.

Stop thinking about what it could of been and look at it for what it is, a solid Mania. 25 was like a million times worse, wtf.
