It's not the 25th anniversary of Wrestlemania

That's next year. This is really bothering me.... to the point where I have to complain about it on the internet.

This is bad news for all those people who are so happy that they were the first ones to prepare their WrestleMania 25th anniversary party for '09.

Whilst here I am, with the hotel already booked for the real party in '10. Who's laughing now???!!!???!!!

Definition of Anniversary-
the date on which an event occurred in some previous year (or the celebration of it)

You could take the first Mania to be a celebration of Wrestling... So technically it could be considered an anniversary, but when it comes to Mania itself, you have a valid point.

I bet it was Michael Cole's Idea.

It is the 25th edition, though if you go by calender years, Wrestlemania has only existed for 24 years. Lol whatever.

I"m sure they're aware of this too. It's simply because it's easier to call the 25th one the 25th anniversary. Doesn't really matter.

How do you know that WrestleMania's plans weren't already in motion in March of 1984? If that's true, it's technically correct.

25 years is a silver anniversary. No one gives a shit about the number 26, so no one cares about the scientific definition of the 25th anniversary. It is the the 25th one, and it is an anniversary.

Wasn't 2001 meant to be the technical new millenium? Yeah, people gave a massive shit about that.

No, it couldn't. Because Mani 1 was the first one, not the first annual. There was no Mania 0. Mania 2 was the first anniversary.

Your wedding isn't the first anniversary of being in love. But your first anniversary is your first anniversary, because you've then been married for a year.

If you can't tell, this has been irritating me, too.

Exactly. Sometimes things just take on a meaning of their own.

Did you know that Chairman doesn't designate itself to a male? The "man" in "Chairman" represents "manual." That doesn't mean Stephanie McMahon is going to come out announced as "Chairman of World Wrestling Entertainment" when she takes over.

You'd better go tell all the old people celebrating their 50th wedding anniversaries that they're gonna need to make sure to make sure to take their Metamucil in order to see their actual 50th anniversary.

It stems from tenth century England, when someone would be the only one seated in a chair, while everyone else had benches. This chair represented authority.

I've also heard that it is someone who "manages" the chair. Either way, it's not inherently meant to be a gender-specific term. But still, people take it as such. The point it that people give their own meaning to things. By all laws and logic, "LOL" shouldn't mean a damn thing, but pretty soon it'll be in the dictionary (if it's already not).

Again, so pointless. The new millenium technically began in 2001, but you didn't see the whole world complaining. Sometimes it's just easier to celebrate things at certain times. Celebrating the 25th anniversary at the 25th wrestlemania just makes sense, even if it's only the 24th.
It's more lame sounding to celebrate the 25th anniversary at Wrestlemania 26.

The only meaning it holds is that which the fans and company place on it. It doesn't have to be science.

You ever celebrate a birthday on a friday, or on the same day as another friends, just because it makes sense and it's easier?

Exactly. Besides, just don't link 25th and anniversary together so rigidly. Make WrestleMania the subject, and not the anniversary. Every subsequent WrestleMania of the first is going to be an anniversary, and it is the 25th WrestleMania. Both "25th" and "anniversary" apply to WrestleMania. They're just buzz words thrown out to promote the event.

I personally don't get the big hubbub there. It was the WrestleMania that took place in the double-0 year of "2000." It's WrestleMania 2000. What else could they advertise it as? "WrestleMania could legally fuck if it were living in most states of Australia?"

2000 seems much more interesting to me than "16." Or "XVI."
