Also, if you even remotely expected HHH to beat Taker at this point, you need to check into taking some special education classes first thing in the morning. |

I dunno. Main reason I watched was Rock. Did exactly what I wanted, exactly what I thought, and still I just went, "man." Pretty shitty wrestlemania when you get your best scenario out of it and just shrug it off because of the rest of the show sucking so badly. These wrestlers must go through hell nowadays trying to get over/get anything going, it just seems so ridiculous and sloppy.

By the way, I probably did cross the line with the name calling earlier and I'm big enough to admit that and apologize for it. I just felt like they gave Lawler a cool WM moment and a true victory and then went on to further the storyline with a reverse decision by the GM. |

...Eeeh...WrestleMania 19, also. WrestleMania 25 was where HBK's feud with Undertaker was going to END...as was WrestleMania 26. Chris Jericho's problems with HBK were going to end at WrestleMania 19...except they wrestled another dozen times after that. No one cares about that anymore, people. |

"Do you smell the the P is cooking?" Are you fucking NUTS???? Cole winning over Lawler's first and likely only WM match? Nice job Vince. Way to say thank you to one of your longest tenured and most loyal employee. I agree with your points, I'm just saying that was a terrible WM. |

Dude HBK/Taker feud #1 ended at Mania 25, they stopped feuding then rekindled it closing in on Mania 26. The Rock had the rematch match after 15 and then turned face and didn't re-feud with Austin until 17 where he then got screwed the next night on Raw and left until summer and feuded mostly with Jericho and Booker T. Rock/Austin didn't feud again until 19 where Rock finally beat Austin and that was Austin's last match. In all of those the big win happened at Mania, some of them had rematches that sealed the deal but the clear decisive victory in the feud happened at Mania, so bad examples for whatever point you are trying to make |

I'm probably more of a JR mark than you'll ever be in your entire life. And he was NOT himself tonight. it happens. JR should have done the whole card---not three matches. He sounded quite stilted and preoccupied tonight. |

what fucking point are you trying to make? Of course people re-feud later on but Mania shouldn't be just a middle part of an ongoing feud,

Edge vs Alberto Del Rio ****
Best Wrestlemania opener ever aside from Bret/Owen. Great match and I'm glad Edge won, he's lost the title way too many times. Awesome match that got me super in the mood. Cody Rhodes vs Rey Mysterio *** 1/2 Shocker of the night, Cody Rhodes is a main WWE player now folks. The Corre vs Big Show/Kane/Kofi/Santino * 1/2 Meh, hate that it was so short but oh well. Orton vs CM Punk *** 1/2 Really good match, hard hitting and great finish. Jerry Lawler vs Michael Cole * This match pissed me off because it was WAY TOO LONG! And Cole wrestled way too much, I figured he'd get the upper hand once, but damn it was for so long. Such a boring match that should have been about four minutes long. Plus, no piledriver? WTF, and lame ending with the decision being reversed. The Undertaker vs Triple H ***** TRIPLE H = BEST WM ENTRANCE EVER What an incredible match. My part fucking loved this match, it was INSANE, we were hanging on every move. Triple H really pulled it out and The Undertaker seems to be just fine as he pulled out all the stops and then some. He took some big bumps tonight and really got his ass kicked. Fucking amazingly dramatic match, I can't wait to watch it again. Snooki, Trish, and Morrison vs Lay Cool and Ziggler ** Trish is better than ever and Snooki was cute and fun. John Cena vs The Miz ** 1/2 Not a great main event, but not offensive. I wish it were shorter and more high impact, faster pace to keep up the interest after such a long and great PPV. The Rock closing was expected and nice, weird to see Cena put on the back burner. Loved the PPV, big time bummer for Bryan and Sheamus who had time taken away for the awful King/Cole match and the five minutes too long main event. Miz wasn't ready for the main event but The Rock pulled his weight for him. Great PPV, and The Rock's opener was amazing. |

To be fair, I do agree with you that it would've be cool to see HHH pin Taker after that Tombstone. However, I put that aside and enjoyed and appreciated the match for what it was and it was a damn good match. I loved what they did with Taker being the messed up legend/veteran who just won't quit and didn't know where he was or whether the match was over or what. Did anyone else notice that when he was on the stretcher he was still moving around a little like he thought he was still in the match? |

I enjoyed the PPV. Sure there was some bad booking along the way, but I was still entertained.
TPWW Chat confused me though, they justified The Rock's closing the show because lots of people would have ordered for him, which is true. But then they criticized the booking and results because it didn't suit the IWC. Can't have it both ways.... |

Why not? Who says? Who made that rule? When did they make it? Is it just because you said so? I don't understand this argument anymore. It's just such a cartoon-ish way of thinking to me. "You have to end feuds at Mania!" WHY?! Because it USED to be the way things were done? I think at this point in the wrestling business, all the rules are out the window and Vince and his writers can pretty much do whatever the hell they want.

"WM is fine, everyone has too much time on there hands to appreciate what good product is and should just take it in stride and be complacent with unorganized execution, lackluster writing, and shoddy celebrity placement." I see your concern for people doing that, but no one's being a "Hater". If you think having a WHC match first, a ranting Rock monologue that could have been on Raw, Pee Wee Herman pissing all over one of the greatest promos in the business ever, Great Khali and Kelly Kelly in Grease, Roddy Piper getting an extremely undeserved " 'who the fuck are you', silent acknowledgment from the crowd in his quick cameo, JR calling matches like he has a gun to his head, Michael Cole being put over an unappreciated employee like Lawler, the US title belt match being compromised and two guys humiliated, Rock appearing once every 37 minutes and Sunny not even being used at all and a contradictory treatment of a Royal Rumble winner from nowhere getting push to look like an asshole at the end, and an underwhelming Taker/HHH match a solid Wrestlemania, more power to you. We can agree to disagree, no one's saying you're right or wrong. Just, you know, some of us notice these things. Especially when we're paying 57 dollars. |

Definitely not the worst WM ever, but it had it's faults. I'm going to sleep on it.
Still though, may be in the minority, but I didn't like the HHH vs Taker match. |

I see so saying they're disappointed and let down by a shit show automatically means we're abandoning the WWE forever?
And anyone looking for closure or redemption on WMXXVII is hypocritical? Interesting... |
