    They are in a legal battle for the rights of the gimmick..which is why it's toned down

    if they had full owner ship of it, then they would be going full broken..lol

    I didn't mind the show. Way better than last year's. Hardy Boys coming back was the moment of the night, but I was also a huge fan of Lesnar's leapfrog over the Spear attempt lol

    Yea I know. They're doing variations of the gimmick as seen tonight. Still better than nothing. Unforgettable moment. I marked the eff out like I was a kid. Something that rarely happens with me.

    Does anyone else have an issue with the weakening of finishing maneuvers? Every time I see someone kick out of them I can't help but roll my eyes

    my final match ratings:

    AJ Styles vs. Shane McMahon ****
    Chris Jericho vs Kevin Owens ***1/4
    Bayley vs. Charlotte vs. Nia vs. Sasha ***1/2
    The Club vs. Big Cass/Enzo vs. Cesaro/Sheamus vs. The Hardyz ***3/4
    Cena/Nikki vs. Maryse/Miz ***1/4
    Seth Rollins vs. Triple H ****
    Bray Wyatt vs. Randy Orton **
    Goldberg vs. Brock Lesnar ***1/4 (but VERY good and exciting given the time)
    Bliss vs. Lynch vs. Carmella vs. James vs. Naomi **3/4
    Roman Reigns vs. The Undertaker ***1/4

    So I may have overreacted when I said this was one of the best Manias (or whatever I said) because it definitely isn't. Not enough high caliber stuff. But it was very consistent and enjoyable throughout. No real duds besides the Bray and Randy match. I got what I expected out of the majority of the card and nothing felt like a sludge to sit through (except Taker/Reigns just cause of the cringe, match itself was passable)

    notes:
    AJ vs Shane was the best match on the card because AJ is the best wrestler in the world and it showed. Shane did a rather poor job wrestling but he executed the spots and bumps they had planned perfectly. Obviously they choreographed the s--- out of this. Crazily enough, this had a big match feel.

    Jericho and KO was kind of just there. Not enough fanfair and emotion given the excellent build. Could've used a stipulation

    The RAW fatal fourway women's match was good. I thought if anything it was booked really well with the eliminations and finish. Corkscrew moonsault was unbelievable as always.

    Ladder match was obviously amplified due to the biggest surprise and pop of the night.

    Same ol Cena shtick with his match. Pass

    Rollins and Triple H was good. Should've, could've been better but good. This was one of the few times were I thought overbooking the ending segment would've helped the match. But they went with a clean cut pin and it worked fine. Steph's table bump was one of the highlights of the night

    The Smackdown title match was lame. I honestly wouldn't have cared that Randy was going over-- the storyline practically called for him to win --but the fact that this was another feud of Bray claiming to be so strong and scary (and this time actually having a reason), just to have him lose in this fashion is so moronic. Oh well

    The Universal title match was very exciting.

    The women's six pack challenge was really mediocre. not much to say it just wasn't that good.

    Reigns and Taker was very meh

    could've went ****1/4 for both the 4* matches, depending on the day. They were high-end 4* matches.

    I'm happy within Orton winning. Wyatt isn't good enough yet to be a main event level superstar in my honest opinion. He needs to work on his wrestling. At least Orton can put on a good show with any wrestler.

    Figured reigns would win, but man that's not the way I wanted taker to go out. Reigns is just so d--- boring and his whole character is corny. I don't see what Vince sees in him tbh. He's a good guy going for United States title but not a top card wrestler. He isn't athletic at all. First post in wrestling thread figured wrestlemania wouldn't be a bad time to post.
