So far watched up to Ambrose/Lesnar, nothing has wowed me so far other than the awful decision to give the title to Ryder. A jobber for three years and all of a sudden he's won? Fuck off with that.

I suppose it does reinforce the idea that anything can happen. It's like when the crowd went batshit crazy at the idea that Santino Marella might actually win the Royal Rumble.

What bothers me with Ryder's win is that I have no trust in the WWE that this will actually go anywhere.

Very true. This and the fact that, despite that I haven't watched any Raw/SD/PPVs since after last years Mania @ 31, I still followed the results and, until a few weeks ago hadn't heard of Ryder getting any kind of push at all that would make him "worthy" of the IC title.

Holy shit, on second viewing, they really cut/lowered the audio (especially the crowd mics but also the commentary mics) during Reign's entrance and even more so immediately after his victory. Such a significant drop I wasn't even really paying attention to it and I thought there was something wrong with my television.

On a completely unrelated note, I would let Stephanie McMahon completely ruin my life if it meant I could fuck her. Like kill my wife, burn down my house, type of shit, whatever she wanted.

Yep. I can't wait for replays where the crowd are going batshit crazy over Reigns' victory.

It's a good thing HBK was randomly in his gear in case anyone threw out a challenge to any three people.

Thank god Cena saved the rock from being stared at. They had him surrounded on all sides except the one he could run away by.

This show was indicative of the problems that have been going on for the past year.

Solid if unspectacular ring work marred by batshit crazy booking. No idea what they were thinking in all but like two of the matches. Here's to hoping the real show, the Raw after Mania gives me a reason to care.

Match of the night goes to the crowd chanting for Nakamura during the main event.

I paid for my first PPV in... well I dont know tbh, over 5 years. I am probably as casual as a casual fan gets now and my thoughts below...

- Loved the Ladder Match and really enjoyed Zach Ryder winning not really a fan of his specifically but it just felt like a good way to kick the show off. For some reason my PPV started here.

- I dont understand why Styles lost. I get that Jericho loses a lot at Mania but it just felt a bit silly for Styles to lose first up at Mania to a part time guy. I hope he goes onto something fast paced in ring wise now, maybe get him into one of the secondary title pictures.

- Ambrose vs. Lesnar was good but I cant help feel a trick was missed there. I was hoping Ambrose would either get the win or push Lesnar even further, beg for more of a beating and maybe end with Lesnar helping him up or something. Imagine Lesnar being so impressed by the crazy bastard he helped him up after all that. It almost feels like Shane O Mac got the story Ambrose should have. It feels like Taker and Shane used the storyline that could have really given Ambrose a longterm rub.

- Womens Championship, Best womens match I have ever seen. I havent watched a WWE womens match in years but if thats the standard now I am very impressed. I dont know why but I wanted Sasha to win, maybe it was the Eddie connection.

- Shane vs. Taker... I was underwhelmed. Maybe I missed something as an ex WCW mark who missed the Shane O Mac days. I was excited for him but the match just didnt do it for me.

- Good to see Cena, Is the Cena Sucks stuff on the level of Angles "You suck" chants now? Because the pop for him says people wanted to see him.

- Main Event... They got Reigns his pop, kudos WWE. I had my doubts in the few Raws I saw leading up and even during his intro, but they got him his win pop. One moan I do have is while HHH is trying to get over as a Heel (is he?) he needs to do away with the over the top entrances. Reigns while having an abundance of pyro felt very plain by comparison.

I enjoyed the show, I will probably buy again next year. Reading peoples take on the event I have to say I just dont agree with many of the complaints while I do have issue with some bits. Maybe its because I dont watch week in week out anymore so im less invested.

A lot of people have warmed up to Cena due to his excellent in ring work, and occasional spine tingling serious business cena promo.

I'd wager a large portion of the "cena sucks" chanters are only doing it because it's fun. I would, and I'm a big fan.

I'm a fan as well, have been most of the way along. Even got me banned for a while ha ha. The fact that the guy seems to be a genuine class act of a person helps I think.

Agreed.


It's the way things seem to be these days (i.e. fans deliberately trolling whoever they perceive the "machine" to be behind).

I wouldn't put the Cena sucks chants in that camp. They are more like the "you suck" chants angle used to get, in that it's a weird pro wrestling fan appreciation, than the genuine dislike Roman gets. Though I don't doubt there are a lot more cena sucks chanters that actually believe it, than in angle's case.

The only chants that matter are ones with my name in it. You'd know that if you weren't in the tank for Hillary/McMahon. Everybody sees it but you.

Ended up watching it at a bar and the last thing I remember was Shanes spot. It was a fun Mania in the moment, but have no idea why they put the best two matches on first.

Watching Triple H's entrance again this morning gave me a massive boner. Hard time getting my pants on.

I didn't remember Rock had a flamethrower. He should have come out with Chynas entrance gimmick, that was more awesome.

About Cena....I think everyone who "hates" him is just tired of the status quo...but then when he is out and they put out this shit, people realize having Cena around isn't so bad.

Just goes back to the age old question: Have the "good stuff" on the PPV or on the Raws to get people to watch the PPV?

No idea what the current business model is now that the Network has taken over traditional PPV "buys" but the main question still exists and can't be definitively answered.

Well the way I see it is that while there may be some surprises that start something new at mania, for the most part it's the culmination of all the current angles.

The raw afterwards is about setting tne new status quo with fresh new angles and junk.

So skipped through extended highlights to refresh my memory. Overall, not a great Mania, but I'd rank it higher than 27-31 for the show as a whole. The main event, bar HHH's entrance, was worse than all of those though. Wow.

I admittedly didn't watch the whole show but just from what I saw and checking the highlights I'd say this was the worst Mania since 27. Some good matches with really questionable booking and even when I was casually checking in I barely felt interested..

28 had two really good matches in Punk/Jericho and Cena/Rock with logical outcomes based on where the build was going, and Taker/HHH in HIAC made for a nice spectacle.

29 is always going to be tough for me to judge fairly because I was there and that automatically makes the entire show more enjoyable. But Punk/Taker was excellent and Rock/Cena was still a good match.

30 was just a fantastic show all around with a hot opener, one of the best battle royals I can remember, the biggest shock ending ever in Taker/Lesnar, and a hot main event that led to a bona fide Mania fairy tale ending.

31 far exceeded expectations, just about everything was good and Lesnar/Reigns had a far, far better match than I ever thought possible given how terrible the buildup to the event was.

So yeah, worst Mania since 27 sounds about right in my books. This show was still clearly better than that one.

When the main event gets the reaction from the fans that Lawler vs Cole got. that being a dead one. It puts 27 above 32 as far as being better

If the biggest show of the year can't hold the interest of someone who's watched wrestling for 15 years, it's a pretty good sign that that viewer (aka me) would find the show to be fucking terrible. I only kept with it until the end out of pure train wreck factor.

If the WWE get behind Ryder this year (or if Ryder continues to prove himself behind the scenes, in the ring, whatever), I'm wondering if the WWE can somehow push/position Ryder as the equivalent of "Rudy." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudy_(film).


Could be a good success story and given what we saw with Daniel Bryan, the WWE fans love an underdog.

Eh, I still say as a whole show, it was the second best WM since 25 behind 30. Think everything at least lived up to expectations, bat the main event which managed to limbo under that low bar.

I don't think the crowd was dead. I think they shut off the mics once Reigns won. The "pop" he got after the 3 count came out of nowhere and after that everything but his music sounded muffled.

I'm convinced they tried to mute\drown out the booing
