It was a good match, but the commentary trying to act like we just witnessed an all-time classic was a bit much for me. I really hate WWE commentary though, so pretty much any time they open their mouths they get under my skin.

The whole wwe style doesn't work for me in regards to presentation and style in general.

The wrestling has been good enough tonight though for me to not notice much.

Michael Cole has been really bad tonight though. Vince is probably back in his ear at this point.

Ok this McAfee/Miz thing is baaaadd.

Wouldn't be surprised if KO turns on Sami tonight.

Great main event. Great storytelling in that match.

Overall outside of the miz/McAfee segment nothing was actively bad on the show and overall it had really solid to great wrestling with the right winners overall.

I was sports entertained.

Pretty good night in the ring. The Mcafee-Miz thing was BAD, and I really wish they would have left the walking Ad out of the Rollins-Paul match, but can't complain much otherwise there.

My dislike for the night was all of the self-fellating and general inanity of the commentary, but that is WWE so it is what it is.

Unrelated to the show itself, I think I saw somewhere that the free peacock premium on Comcast is going away in June... so this may be one of the last WWE events I actually watch.

Last night was the first Wrestlemania I missed since Mania 18. I was traveling so couldn’t watch live but I watched some last night and finished this morning. Not watching live definitely takes some of the specialness away but I thought it was extremely solid. For as much as people hate Charlotte, she’s in her position because she’s incredibly good in big matches. That was the unexpected match of the night. The main event was the perfect consolation prize for Sami, since I still think he should’ve beat Roman. I’ll probably have to watch tonight delayed as well. Bummer.

Haha I didn’t even notice that. I actually do think that was the best women’s Wrestlemania match ever.

Omos-Lesnar screams Vince. Literally nobody on this planet can possibly want to see this crap.

Postby **the wicked child** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 8:34 pm

Not a great start. This is the best example of trying to be "equal" while making things worse. A tag team showcase with 4 totally made up teams. Hope it gets better from here.

Just how tuning in sounds like I didn't miss much. This Gunther/drew/Sheamus match is pretty fun and hard hitting at least.

Postby **the wicked child** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 9:18 pm

The intercontinental title match was the first thing worth seeing. It was really good, but once again... Proclaiming it the best fight ever... Ignoring anything outside WWE, the Gunther-Seamus match at Clas at the Castle was better, part of that because it was jsut a straight up war between 2 people.

But great match regardless,even if I knew there was zero chance of Gunther losing... No way every belt is switching hands.

Bianca/auska is not very good so far.

Postby **skullman80** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 9:38 pm

Yeah that just didn't work for me at all.

Who the **** wanted Shane back?

Who the **** wanted Shane back?

Vince is definitely in control of creative again lol.

Postby **skullman80** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 9:48 pm

Did Shane just legit hurt himself? Lol. What a trainwreck.

Postby **skullman80** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 9:49 pm

Snoop tried to save that lol.

Postby **the wicked child** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 9:50 pm

Night 1 was better than expected, night 2 has largely sucked a fat one.

Postby **skullman80** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 9:54 pm

Two hours for two matches?

HITC in the daylight also sucks.

Like father, like son.

Edit: oops, that was Royal Rumble where Vince blew both quads and not Mania.

Slayer??!!! South of Heaven?

Awesome!

Postby **skullman80** » Sun Apr 02, 2023 10:15 pm

Finn took that in the face....and now we get blood and edge has to stall cause we can't have blood.
