Opening promo was great, action packed. Good way to get people psyched for your star-studded main event. Big Show, Kane, and Diesel is an absolutely awesome trio, for real. Love that. Cool thing you did during Taker's promo, with Triple H trying to play some mind games of his own. Interesting twist. Booker getting in the ring is always good imo, if he loses or not. The aftermath was cool, the feud is flowing nicely. Kingston being built up strong is wonderful, he has so much potential and I hope you eventually use it. Christian getting the blind tag is awesome, although I'm not too sure on Edge accepting his appology. Kind of kills it. Either way though, very good show from you. Excited for Wreslemania week!

- Like to see the champion opening up Smackdown. - Big Show and Kane with Diesel (trio) is godlike, glad they picked up the win. - Beatdowns are good to get heat on The Corre. - SINNN CAAARRRAAAAA! - Booker T facing off against Rhodes later is absolutely amazing, pushing for Rhodes. - Kind of a useless match here, plus McIntyre didn't win.. - Can't wait to read your match for Taker and Hunter. Best feud. - Rhodes won, kind of a "upset", as it was Booker's return but I'm not complaining. - Rey coming out was good, glad Cody got away free though. - Del Rio and Clay, Miz and Riley?! Good segment. - MiTB hype, glad Kofi won, would of rathered Dolph though. - Kaitlyn lost!? To Vickie!? Should turn out for the better! - John Cena, obviously good placement here. - Glad the heels picked up the win over the faces. - Feel like Christian is gonna turn heel pretty soon. - Overall, an A OK show with me.

Can't wait to see what you do with Mania. The card looks better than the actual one. Hopefully, Christian walks out with the title.

Monday Night Raw opens up to a gigantic pop. The final Raw before WrestleMania is about to take place and we see the commentary team of Michael Cole and Josh Mathews, but they are joined by Cole's Personal Trainer for WrestleMania, William Regal. Cole says that Regal is here to make sure Jerry Lawler and Daniel Bryan don't try anything funny before WrestleMania. Josh Mathews reminds us that tonight, The Rock will be here, LIVE to confront both the WWE Champion, The Miz and John Cena. Also, The Undertaker will be here to confront Triple H for one final time. Suddenly, the theme of the The Rock hits to a gigantic pop, many people not expecting him until the Main Event.
One down, one to go The Rock enters the ring and says that he is here to have the first of two confrontations here tonight. Firstly, he wants to have a little chat with the WWE Champion, The Miz. Rock says that over the past few weeks, The Miz has mocked him and has tried to provoke him, reminding the WWE Universe of when he shoved him into John Cena a few weeks back. He says that he is officially calling out The Miz to get this over and done with, right now. The theme of The Miz does hit, and he comes out alongside Alex Riley with a huge grin across his face. He enters the ring and pretends to be star-struck by The Rock. He says that it is such an honor to be in the ring with such an iconic superstar... "Wouldn't you agree, Rocky?". The crowd boo as The Miz refers to himself as an 'iconic superstar'. He says that The Rock has been there and done that, and doesn't understand why he would come back, just to steal the spotlight once again. He says that he left the WWE once and went on to make crappy Hollywood movies, so why did he come back. The Rock speaks up, saying he came back for The People, he came back for the adrenaline that he missed while in Hollywood, he came back to teach punks like The Miz to "Know your role - and shut your mouth!". The crowd pop as The Miz looks frustrated. He tells The Rock that he is the future of this business, and that the name of 'The Rock' is a thing of the past, and should be dead and buried. The Rock says that this Sunday at WrestleMania, he can't say he'll be picking a favorite, but he can safely say that he damn sure hopes that John Cena whoops his candy-ass all over the Georgia Dome. The crowd pop as The Miz gets angry. He screams at The Rock, saying that John Cena won't be doing anything of the sort, and he will leave as the WWE Champion, because "I'm The Miz - and I'm--" but before he can finish, The Rock unloads on him, eventually sending him through the ropes and out of the ring with his signature punch. Alex Riley goes in for the attack, but ends up getting dropped with the Rock Bottom, much to the fans delight. The Rock's theme hits as The Miz retreats up the ramp with his WWE Championship. The Rock mouths to the WWE Universe "One down, one to go!" as we fade to a commercial break.
Commercial Break.
John Morrison, Kofi Kingston, R-Truth, Evan Bourne & Chris Masters def. Dolph Ziggler, Jack Swagger, Sheamus, Drew McIntyre & Ted DiBiase All ten men in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match this Sunday at WrestleMania were in action right here. It was your usual Ten-Man Tag Team Match as each man managed to get some offense in. The match came to a close when Kofi Kingston hit Drew McIntyre with the Trouble In Paradise for the victory.
The face team celebrate as the heels retreat. However, tension soon rises as everyone looks at each other, knowing that come WrestleMania, it will be every man for themselves. We then fade backstage.
An interview with John Cena John Cena is seen pacing back and forth in his locker room, until Scott Stanford walks in for a few words. He asks Cena what he is expecting from The Rock after seeing what he had to say to The Miz just moments ago. Cena says that he can't say he didn't enjoy seeing The Rock smack the taste right out of The Miz's mouth, so he admires him for that, but tonight, if The Rock wants to try anything like that, then he'll take it like a man. He knows that his focus is on The Miz and the WWE Championship, but he is intrigues as to what The Rock has to say. He looks into the camera and says "I look forward to it, Rocky" before leaving. We then fade to a commercial break.
Commercial Break.
Vickie Guerrero def. Trish Stratus in a LumberJill Match LumberJills: Michelle McCool, Layla, Eve, Kelly Kelly, Natalya, Alicia Fox, Maryse, Tamina, Rosa Mendes, Melina & Kaitlyn The crowd were pumped to see Trish in action, but it didn't go according to plan as Lay-Cool stuck their noses in. With the divas mauling Vickie Guerrero on the outside and the referee trying to restore order, Michelle McCool jumped into the ring, delivered a sickening Big Boot to Trish and left her out cold. When Vickie was thrown back into the ring, she saw that Trish was down and immediately crawled to the cover and picked up the victory.
Lay-Cool raised Vickie's hands in celebration as the divas didn't have a clue what had happened. The face divas entered the ring to check on Trish as the rest of the divas left. We then fade to a promo package.
We see a promo package for WWE WrestleMania XXVII. It is shown to the theme of "Written in the Stars" by Tinie Tempah ft. Eric Turner. We then cut backstage.
We see Rey Mysterio walking down a corridor as we are told he takes on CM Punk in a WrestleMania Rebound Match - NEXT!
Commercial Break.
CM Punk with The Nexus def. Rey Mysterio in a WrestleMania Rebound Match This was a rematch from last year's WrestleMania, and what a rivalry these two had. Unfortunately for Rey Mysterio, this year's rivalry with Cody Rhodes came into play as Rhodes made an appearance from the crowd, and with the referee distracted by The Nexus, Rhodes hit Mysterio with a huge headbutt, using his protective mask as a weapon. Rhodes quickly escaped as CM Punk delivered the Go To Sleep for the victory.
A taste of your own medicine After the match, CM Punk and The Nexus celebrated as we see Rhodes leaving in anger. Mysterio leaves the ring also as Punk grabs a microphone. CM Punk says that in just six days, The Viper will finally be euthanized and will no longer be able to hunt for his prey. Punk says that not only will Orton be dealt with, but the beer-swilling Stone Cold Steve Austin will also have the ironic job of raising his hand, the hand of a Straight Edge Messiah, something that Austin doesn't even dare to dream about. Punk says that he will be killing two birds with one stone when he defeats Randy Orton, and forces Stone Cold to praise a completely opposite lifestyle. Before Punk can continue, Randy Orton comes out to a huge pop, wielding a steel chair, just like last week. CM Punk surrounds himself in The Nexus, but Orton goes right through them. He takes them all down besides CM Punk who slowly backs away. Punk watches from outside the ring as Orton swings the chair around like a madman. Orton the stares right into the eyes of CM Punk who sadistically smirks as he backs up the ramp. Punk simply says "Wait your turn, Randall. Just six days..." Orton looks on in frustration as we see a promo package.
We see a promo package for the debuting Mexican superstar, Sin Cara. The words "Coming Soon" are shown, and the Raw logo flickers in the shadows behind it. We then cut backstage.
We see Triple H backstage, walking towards ringside to a huge pop. We then fade to a commercial break.
Commercial Break.
The final encounter The gong of The Undertaker hits to a massive pop. He comes out and just as he enters the ring, the theme of Triple H hits to another huge pop. The two come face to face in the ring. Triple H says that in six days, it all comes crashing down for The Deadman. The Streak will be over, and so will his career. The Undertaker begs to differ, saying that there will eventually come a time when that will happen, but that is a long, long time away. Triple H says that he knows it will be hard to understand, but he knows when and old dog needs to be put down, and that's the case right here. He says that last year, Shawn Michaels didn't have enough to get the job done, and The Undertaker barely escaped, but this Sunday will be very different. Suddenly, the crowd erupt as the theme of SHAWN MICHAELS hits! He comes out to a huge pop as Triple H and The Undertaker look on in disbelief. Michaels enters the ring and begins to speak. He says that this is without doubt one of the biggest confrontations he has ever heard about, and he wasn't going to miss it for the world. The one person he respects the most, and his best friend, face-to-face on the Grandest Stage of them All! He says that he picked quite the time to come out, because he just heard what Triple H just said. He turns to The Game and asks him "What honestly makes you think that you can do what I couldn't?" to a large gasp from the crowd. Triple H looks down, but then tells Shawn that it's simple to understand. He says that Shawn let his emotions get the better of him, and he let the idea of him losing get into his head, because he was already contemplating retiring anyway. But Triple H vows he is different, saying that he knows that he can win... and he will win. He squares up to The Undertaker, and Undertaker tells him that while his mindset is definitely the right approach, his arrogance will be his downfall. Triple H says there will be no downfall, and if he doesn't think that he will win, then why doesn't he ask Shawn? Triple H asks Shawn to tell The Undertaker why he will beat him at WrestleMania, but Shawn remains silent. He turns to him and asks him again, but still no reply. Shawn then leaves the ring as the crowd boo and gasp in horror. Shawn leaves without looking back as Triple H shouts his name over and over again. Shawn turns around at the bottom of the ramp, looks Triple H in the eye and says "You can't win... you won't win... I can't allow it... I'm sorry, buddy". Shawn leaves as Triple H looks on in shock. He turns to The Undertaker who simply tips his hat and leaves as his theme plays. We then fade to a commercial break.
Commercial Break.
Wade Barrett with The Corre def. Santino Marella with Vladimir Kozlov This was a pretty quick match, as Wade Barrett dominated. He finished Santino off with The Wasteland for the victory.
The Corre celebrate the victory, but all of a sudden, the theme of the Big Show hits and the trio of giants hit the ring. Big Show, Kane and Diesel enter the ring as The Corre evacuate as quickly as possible. The giants make sure they know that they are coming for them this Sunday, and Barrett shouts that they will put them out of their misery once and for all. We then cut to a promo package.
We see a promo package for the WWE Hall of Fame Class of 2011. We then return to Raw.
The King makes a statement Jerry Lawler comes out to the ring alongside the United States Champion, Daniel Bryan. He says that Michael Cole's ego has grown out of control over the past few months, and he now truly believes that he is better than everyone else. He says that for months now he has been wanting to rip Michael Cole to pieces, but couldn't due to the ruling of the Anonymous Raw General Manager. However, at WrestleMania, it will be a completely different story. Michael Cole starts shouting from the commentary desk, knowing that with William Regal beside him, nothing will happen. Lawler says that William Regal won't be able to save him at WrestleMania. Michael Cole grabs a microphone and enters the ring alongside Regal. He says that Lawler can talk all he wants, because it won't change the inevitable embarrassment he will suffer. He has proven time and time again that Lawler is nothing but a joke of a human being, and even his own family share that thought. Cole finally crosses the line when he mentions Lawler's deceased mother, saying he should be happy that she won't be able to see what a pathetic joke her son is going to be exposed as at WrestleMania. You can see Lawler's face genuinely go red with anger as he lunges for Cole. Daniel Bryan holds him back, telling him he has only got six days to wait, and he doesn't want to ruin it now. Lawler reluctantly calms down, clearly wanting to tear Cole apart. Cole laughs in his face, knowing that he can;t do anything. All of a sudden - BAM! Daniel Bryan spins around and delivers a huge forearm to Michael Cole, sending him flying out of the ring as the crowd erupt. William Regal leaves the ring to check on him as Bryan and Lawler look on. The King's theme hits as Regal helps Michael Cole to the back as the WWE Universe cheer on. We then cut to a commercial break.
Commercial Break.
We hear that Todd Grisham has replaced Michael Cole on commentary.
We return to see the World Heavyweight Champion, Edge and Christian backstage to a pop. Edge says that he wants to put everything that has happened in recent weeks behind them. He says that at WrestleMania, the best man will win, but he doesn't want that to affect their friendship. Christian agrees and the two shake hands. We are told that Christian takes on Alberto Del Rio - NEXT!
Alberto Del Rio with Brodus Clay def. Christian with Edge via Disqualification In the middle of the match, Edge slides into the ring and looks to get an advantage going into WrestleMania, delivering a thunderous Spear to Del Rio. The referee is forced to ring the bell and end the match.
Afterwards, Brodus Clay helps Del Rio out of the ring as Edge looks on with a smile. However, Christian spins Edge round and shouts at him for losing him the match. Edge says he was just getting an advantage, but Christian tells him that he's going to need more than that. Edge and Christian stare-off in the light of the WrestleMania sign as Del Rio backs up the ramp with a huge smirk on his face, witnessing that this could be a good thing for him. We then cut backstage.
We see The Rock backstage to a gigantic pop. He is ready to come out and confront John Cena - NEXT!
Commercial Break.
We return to see a replay of what happened earlier between The Rock and the WWE Champion, The Miz. We then cut to ringside.
An epic confrontation The theme of The Rock hits to a huge pop and he comes out to the ring. He says he is here for the second of his two confrontations tonight. The Rock says that he has said what he had to say to The Miz, but now, it's John Cena's turn. He says that ever since John Cena started talking trash about him, he has wanted this moment, but he just never got round to showing up and actually getting it done, but now he has the chance. He calls John Cena out and tells him that whether he wants to or not, he will listen to what he has to say. John Cena's theme hits to a mixed reaction and he comes out and stands face to face with The Rock. John Cena starts off by saying that over the weeks he has been saying that he doesn't care what The Rock has to say, and that it doesn't matter about The Rock, but now he is stood in the ring with him, he feels a whole lot different. He says that this is a moment that will live in time forever. He says that John Cena and The Rock is something that people have been talking about for a very long time, and here we are, just six days before WrestleMania 27. John Cena tells The Rock how he used to look up to him, and that he was one of the people who inspired him to get in the ring and become a WWE superstars. He used to watch him work the crowd with his one-liners and "Lay the Smackethdown on everyone's candy-asses". He never thought once that he would have the honor of standing face-to-face with him in the center of a Monday Night Raw ring. The Rock smiles and then says that he is glad he was an idol of Cena's, he is glad that he inspired him to become a WWE superstar, but you know what... it doesn't matter. The crowd pop as The Rock calmly says this signature catchphrase. He then says "It doesn't matter if you idolized The Rock. It doesn't matter if The Rock inspired you. Hell, it doesn't even matter if you wanted a piece of The Rock's strudel! But what does matter is that you, my fruit loop friend, have bitten off far more than you can chew, and so help me God, when the time is right, The Rock is going to layeth the smackethdown on your candy-ass alllllll over Atlanta!" The crowd just erupt and go absolutely crazy as these two icons glare at one another. John Cena smiles and says "This is the Rocky I have been waiting to see! This is what I have wanted to get out of you! The People's Champion! The pie-eating, eyebrow raising--" The Rock stops him, and tells him to never use his catchphrases if he wants to keep his lips. The crowd laugh and The Rock goes on to say "The Jabroni-beating, allalllalllowww, pie-eating, trail-blazing, eyebrow-raising, gimme a break and cut me the CRAP, you act like a gangster but you can't even RAP, and come WrestleMania your rainbow ass is MINE, your time is not now because this time is MINE - THE ROCK! - IF YOU SMELLLLLALLALLLALLAOWWWWW, WHAT THE ROCK - IS COOKIN'!" The crowd go absolutely nuts as Cena simply smiles. Cena says "My work here is done... I'll see you at WrestleMania". John Cena leaves the ring as The Rock looks on in confusion. Cena walks up the ramp with a smile, but all the tension is broken as all of a sudden - BAM! The Miz shows up and drops The Rock with the Skull-Crushing Finale! The crowd boo louder than ever as The Miz stands tall in anger, shouting at The Rock, saying he will regret he ever messed with him. John Cena looks on concerned, but doesn't do anything about it. The Miz stands tall over The Rock, raising his WWE Championship and looking directly at John Cena. Monday Night Raw fades to an epic close.

Great Raw. I really like the fact that The Rock had two confrontations. Enjoyed the Triple/Taker segment. Hopefully, the Game wins at Mania. Awesome end segment! Really built up the PPV well.

Graphics are nothing short of spectacular man. You and Chaz are by far the best on the board and it really adds to your diary. Let's get on to the most recent Raw, shall we?
- Regal as Cole's trainer and Bryan in Lawler's corner has already gotten me hooked. So far, this rocks as Rock comes out to open the show! Rock/Miz confrontation sets the stage for the entire show. Miz being the ultimate heel and I love the iconic superstar comment. Good start to the show. Faces over Heels...expected, but I do the tension as they celebrate. Lame lumberjill match if you ask me...just not needed, but its not your fault the Women's division is horrendous. Nice! Punk over Rey makes me a happy Panda definitely. Man, I really hope you have Punk go over Orton at 'Mania. it would definitely do him some good. Sin Cara...use him correctly. Man, if the WWE did something like that for Triple H/Taker, I would have ordered Wrestlemania. Now, I don't know if you'll have Triple H beat Taker now, but I certainly want to find out. Barrett in the squash...puts over WM opponents. Nice Lawler/Cole confrontation...Cole using King's mother is definitely uncalled for! Good main event with Del Rio over Christian...sets up Mania nicely! As does the epic confrontation...Miz will get his!
Excellent job my friend, I'll be reading closely.

I love that you've indirectly had Bryan and Regal butting heads through the Cole/Lawler angle. I knew something good had to come out of it, haha.
That final confrontation between Cena and Rocky was played off really well I thought. Really well written with the dialogue and whatnot. Somewhat similar to WWE's route, but I'm glad the Miz still interfered and acted like the vulture he is.
WrestleMania is shaping up beautifully!

Glad you can bring a Regal/Bryan feud into the whole announcers dilemma. Really hope Ziggler wins the Money In The Bank. Like that Punk won due to help from Rhodes. I don't see Punk going over at Mania, but Austin raising his hand would be a memorable image. Enjoy the HHH/Taker promo, I can see HBK coming out during the Mania match. Barrett winning was somewhat obvious, and love that the Corre has to face the giant team of Show, Kane, and Diesel. Could actually see Daniel doing that to Cole and I'd bet the crowd would pop HUGE to it. The Edge run in is good, really helps the build for this Triple Threat match. End segment was awesome, but it it looks like you're going towards giving Cena the title at Mania, which I hope you don't do. Great show, excited for Mania.

Loved the opening promo here. The smartass comment about being in the ring with an icon was great. Also really dig Rocky taking out Miz and A-Ri. Hot start to the show with the Money In The Bank preview match. Fair to see the faces win - makes me think it'll be a heel win this Sunday. Hmm. Nice little interview with Cena. Interested in what will go down. I laugh at Vickie winning - but it gives such great heat. Great to see Punk get the win, thanks to Rhodes. Nice stuff following the match as well with crazy Orton. I'd love to see Punk win on Sunday, honestly. I like how you used the promo they had in reality with a little additional stuff. Good segment. Really anticipating the match as you've built it solidly. Obvious victory for Barrett over Santino. Glad to see Kane, Show, and Diesel run off the Corre, too. That'll be an interesting Mania match-up. Very nice promo to hype up Cole and Lawler this Sunday. Loving the hit on Cole from Bryan, too. Odd to see Alberto and Christian having this match on Raw. But it does give some further promotion and I'm loving the Edge and Christian tension. Loved the ending promo to the show and it was extremely effective going into Mania. Really enjoyed the touch of Miz taking out Rocky for revenge too. A great show. Really looking forward to WrestleMania, broski.

- This past Friday's SmackDown was used simply as hype for WrestleMania XXVII. It featured footage from WrestleMania Axxess and promo packages for the WrestleMania Matches, as well as some replays from this past Monday's Raw. This was the final show before the event which is tomorrow night.
- The match order is still yet to be cemented into place. The only match we can be sure on is the WWE Championship Match, which will almost certainly Main Event the show. The Rock is expected to both open and close the show regardless of match order, with some segments in between.
- The WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony was said to be a fantastic experience, especially with the induction of Shawn Michaels. Triple H, Kevin Nash and Sean Waltman were there to accompany and congratulate Michaels, and they celebrated on the stage as a one-time reunion of 'The Kliq'. All inductees are expected to attend WrestleMania and appear in their own segment the same as previous years.

RAW: - Nice opening segment to kick off the go-home show for Mania. Loving that The Rock kicked off the show and having him square up with The Miz is a nice way to open the show, I can see those two putting on one hell of a segment if given the time. - Nice ten man tag match, really the best way to build towards the Money in the Bank ladder match here. The faces going over was the more realistic move, although out of the ten involved the only two I can realistically see winning are John Morrison and Dolph Ziggler. - Decent diva's match, it's cool to see Trish Stratus in the ring and Vickie is the best heel diva on the roster, even if she can't wrestle. Vickie going over with interference was the right move. - Nice to see Punk and Mysterio clashing once again, they always put on entertaining matches. Nice to see Rhodes getting involved. Orton taking out Nexus was a nice touch, although I find it difficult to see Punk going over with Austin as the referee. Hopefully you show me otherwise. - I like the Trips/ Taker confrontation and Michaels coming down was an interesting note. The whole 'I can't allow it line' how me worried though, I really don't need to see any interference in their Mania match, it'll not only cheapen it but it wouldn't make sense since Michaels is retired and shouldn't be getting involved in ring at Mania. - Barrett dominating was a good move, keeping The Corre strong heading into Mania. Loving the three giants coming down, I've gotta admit it seems that The Corre are at a disadvantage despite the numbers game. - The Lawler/ Cole segment was a nice way to build towards the match, although I kinda would of preferred a tag match with Cole/ Regal vs. Lawler/ Bryan, just cause I think Daniel Bryan deserves an in ring match at Mania. - Good to see you building the World title feud ahead of Mania, what with you not having a SmackDown this week. The dissension between Edge and Christian is an interesting point, could be leading to a Del Rio victory at Mania. - Absolutely loved the final segment, definitely the best written thing you've ever done on this board, you captured The Rock's speech patterns and catchphrase style so well. The Miz coming out at the end was a great touch, makes the point that it's Cena vs. Miz, not Cena vs. Rock. You've done well at keeping him relevant amidst the Cena/ Rock storyline. - Great go-home show for Mania, not really much else you could have done. I'm eagerly awaiting Mania, keep up the good work.

Dark Match: Santino Marella won a 22-Man Battle Royal. Other Participants - Alex Riley, Brodus Clay, Chavo Guerrero, Curt Hawkins, David Hart Smith, David Otunga, Hornswoggle, Jimmy Uso, Jey Uso, JTG, Mark Henry, Mason Ryan, Michael McGillicutty, Michael Tarver, Primo, The Great Khali, Trent Barreta, Tyler Reks, Tyson Kidd, Vladimir Kozlov, Yoshi Tatsu & Zack Ryder.
Before the show opens up, we are introduced to Keri Hilson, who performs 'America the Beautiful' for the WWE Universe. We then cut to the opening package.
The opening package hypes the WrestleMania return of The Rock as the Guest Host, the WWE Championship Match between The Miz and John Cena, the World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Match and Triple H versus The Undertaker. It shows clips from previous shows, and also slightly mentions other matches. It is shown to the theme of 'Diamond Eyes (Boom-Lay, Boom-Lay, Boom)' by Shinedown. It closes with a shot of the WrestleMania XXVI logo with images of the different feuds floating around behind it. We then cut to the arena.
The pyrotechnics display explodes from the unique stage as the WWE Universe erupt. The theme of 'Written in the Stars' by Tinie Tempah ft. Eric Turner blasts across the arena as we pan across the live crowd. The WWE|HD bar flashes up on our screens as we hear the voice of Josh Mathews welcoming us to the show. We go to the commentary area where Josh Mathews is sat alongside Jerry 'The King' Lawler. They bring us into the show, running through a few matches and saying how electric tonight is going to be. They then introduce the Spanish Announce Team, but we are surprised to see Michael Cole wedged between Carlos Cabrera and Hugo Savinovich as they greet the Spanish fans. Michael Cole speaks up, saying how Jerry Lawler failed to introduce him because he is clearly just sour because he knows that he is going to lose tonight. Lawler tells Cole to wait his turn as we hear the theme of The Rock to a thunderous pop.
The Rock kicks off the show The Rock storms to the ring in electrifying fashion. He speaks to the WWE Universe, telling them that tonight will without doubt be one of the greatest WrestleManias ever seen. He reminds us that we will see the iconic clash between The Undertaker and Triple H, saying that he knows both men very well and that he knows that they will steal the show. He then mentions the World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Match, saying that Edge would defend against his best buddy Christian and "that Mexican guy", who he then remembers is called Alberto Del Rio. The crowd chuckle. Finally, he mentions the WWE Championship Match as The Miz defends against John Cena. The crowd cheer, knowing that this is what The Rock is interested in. He says that when tonight is all said and done, he really doesn't give a damn who wins, but he promises one thing, and that is he will be watching, and if at any given moment he feels he needs to, he will come out here and "layeth the smackethdown on their candy-asses!". He then goes onto say that he hasn't done this in a while at WrestleMania, so he wants to do it properly with the help of the WWE Universe. He says he want's them all to join in. He then leaves us with his iconic catchphrase "If you smellllalllallallow - what The Rock... is cookin'!". His theme plays and he leaves as we cut to ringside.
We see a long-shot of both commentary desks to get Michael Cole in view too. Josh Mathews says that The Rock just gave a fantastic speech to warm up the WWE Universe, and he can't wait for the rest of the show. Jerry Lawler says he can't wait either, but Michael Cole butts in from over on the Spanish announce desk and says he can't wait to shut Jerry Lawler's mouth once and for all. Lawler just laughs it off and we get on with the show.
Jack Swagger was the last man to enter, and before the bell had even rang, Kofi Kingston dived through the ropes, hitting him with a suicide dive. A brawl then broke out with the remaining eight competitors and the match got underway. The first person to take charge was Sheamus when he cleared the ring and brought in the first ladder. He set it up and began to climb, but was pulled down by Chris Masters, who then dropped him with a clothesline. Masters climbed the ladder, and Dolph Ziggler joined him on the opposite side, but in came R-Truth and John Morrison who shoved the ladder over, sending both men to the canvas. Truth and Morrison high-fived, but Truth dropped Morrison when he turned around. Ted DiBiase got very close to winning, but was taken out by Evan Bourne who climbed over him to reach the briefcase. However, DiBiase wasn't having it and hit Bourne with a Dream Street from the ladder. Drew McIntyre decided to use the ladders for more than just climbing, ramming everyone in sight, clearing the ring. Unluckily for him, Kofi Kingston leaped from the top rope and hit a senton, crushing McIntyre underneath the ladder. Jack Swagger got back at Kingston by dropping him with a Gutwrench Powerbomb onto a ladder. The ending of the match came when it was John Morrison and R-Truth on the top, battling for the briefcase. Truth hit Morrison with the briefcase and thought he had it, but out of nowhere, Morrison swung around the ladder and hit a 619 type move on Truth, kicking him right in the kidneys. Truth fell from the ladder onto Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler allowing Morrison to pick up the victory! John Morrison def. Dolph Ziggler, Sheamus, Evan Bourne, Drew McIntyre, R-Truth, Ted DiBiase, Chris Masters, Jack Swagger & Intercontinental Champion, Kofi Kingston to win the Money in the Bank Contract.
John Morrison stood high above the ring, raising the Money in the Bank Briefcase, now certain that he will receive a WWE or World Heavyweight Championship Match at any time for up to one year. Morrison dropped to the canvas and came face to face with R-Truth. The two shook hands and Truth congratulated his friend as we fade backstage.
An interview with Cody Rhodes Scott Stanford is backstage alongside Cody Rhodes in a dimly lit room. Rhodes is wearing a hooded jacket and is not facing the camera, refusing to show his face. Stanford says that Rhodes is about to compete in possibly the biggest match of his career against Rey Mysterio, and asks him how he feels. Rhodes says that he has no intension of 'competing' tonight, he is going out there to 'destroy' Rey Mysterio. After what Mysterio did to his face, nearly ending his career, he feels he should return the favor... but finish the job. He says he is going to finish Mysterio's career tonight at WrestleMania. He turns to leave and shoves the camera aside as we fade back to ringside.
Michael Cole highly exaggerates the situation, saying that Mysterio 'intentionally' went for Cody's face, knowing it was his biggest asset. We see the replay from when the accident happened, but Cole is adamant that it was an intentional attack. Lawler and Mathews shake their heads as we get underway with the match.
Cody Rhodes enters second and grabs the referee before the match. He tells him that if Mysterio intentionally goes for the face, he wants him disqualified. The referee says he hasn't been told anything about that ruling and therefore won't acknowledge it. Rhodes gets mad and turns his back on Mysterio. Mysterio wastes little time and dropkicks Rhodes in the back, sending him onto the middle rope. The crowd erupt when they realize he is going for an early 619. Rhodes rolls under the ropes and escapes before it can hit, and the match goes back to the beginning. Rhodes re-enters the ring and the two lock up, but Rhodes turns it into a brawl when he delivers hard elbows to the skull. He tries to damage Rey's face, just like he said he would, but Rey shoves him off and takes him down with a hurricanrana. Mysterio goes for his signature bulldog, but Rhodes throws him off, sending him crashing to the mat. Rhodes then uses his protective mask to his advantage, headbutting Mysterio. The referee does tell Rhodes that he shouldn't be doing that, however, Michael Cole tells us that the mask has been officially legalized by the Board of Directors as it is a piece of equipment necessary for Rhodes' health. Rhodes smirks as he continues to headbutt Mysterio. He then lifts him up and goes for the Cross-Rhodes, but Mysterio slips out and hangs Rhodes up on the middle rope. He goes for it and he NAILS the 619! He goes up to the top rope for the Splash, but as he comes down, Rhodes puts his feet up and Mysterio feels the pain. Rhodes gets up and then targets the braced knee, the same knee which caused this whole thing. He rips off the brace and raises it above his head, screaming "this is what caused it... this is what will end it!". He measures Mysterio, but the referee snatches the knee brace off of him and Rhodes shouts at him, losing his focus. As he turns back around, Mysterio goes for a dropkick, but Rhodes slaps him aside, and when he gets back up - BAM! He hits Mysterio with a low blow while the referee wasn't looking. Rhodes then locks him up and PLANTS him with the Cross-Rhodes before taking the victory. Cody Rhodes def. Rey Mysterio
Rhodes leaves quickly before Rey can manage to come around. The crowd boo as Rhodes smirks, knowing full well that he just stole that victory. Something tells us that this isn't over... We then cut to a promo package.
We see a promo package for WWE Extreme Rules which will air on the 1st of May, 2011. We then return to Wrestlemania XXVII.
Rated R Preparation We see the World Heavyweight Champion, Edge getting prepared for his match later tonight to a huge pop. Christian walks in to another huge pop and the two go face-to-face. Christian says that tonight, he is going out there to win the World Heavyweight Championship, but he wants Edge to know that regardless of what happens, he always has been and always will be his best friend. Edge smiles and says he feels exactly the same. He says that he just wants to make sure of one thing, and that is that Alberto Del Rio does not leave with the World Heavyweight Championship. As long as it is either him or Christian, he's happy. Christian pats him on the back and says that he agrees. They shake hands and hug as we fade back to ringside.
The Corre had a group-talk before the match on the outside of the ring. They decided that Ezekiel Jackson should start the match against Kane. The two monsters clash, showing off their brute force. The crowd are shocked as Jackson takes control, throwing Kane to the canvas. He reverses into his corner and is praised by his teammates. They go in for another clash, and this time, Kane overpowers Jackson to a pop from the crowd. They go to clash again, but Kane just delivers a boot to the skull, ending this game. Jackson backs into his corner and is tagged by Heath Slater. Slater goes to work on Kane, but Kane powers out and takes control. He drags Slater into his corner and tags in the Big Show to a huge pop. Show delivers multiple hard chops to the chest, winding Slater. He then lifts him up and throws him over to the opposite corner with a biel, and shouts at him to tag in Wade Barrett. Barrett declines the tag and tells Slater he'd be better tagging in Justin Gabriel, meaning Slater had to tag Gabriel. Gabriel jumped in, but got caught by Show who planted him with a gorilla press slam. Ezekiel Jackson jumped in and took Big Show out with a clothesline, allowing Gabriel to go for the cover, but Show kicked out. Gabriel tagged Jackson back in, and he went to work on Show. Show battled out and booted Jackson to the canvas, once again shouting for Wade Barrett. Barrett once again tries to worm his way out of it, but Jackson slaps him across the chest and tells him to get in. The crowd pop as Barrett is forced into the ring by his Corre teammates.

The Rock turns around and comes face-to-face with Stone Cold Steve Austin to a gigantic pop. They stare-off for a few seconds before Austin starts laughing. The Rock starts laughing with him and they laugh for a few seconds before Austin suddenly stops, and The Rock slowly stops laughing too. Austin smirks and says “Nice seeing ya” as The Rock replies, saying “You too, Steve”. Austin walks off as The Rock watches him leave. We then fade to a promo package.
We see promo packages about WrestleMania Axxess and all the activities that have happened over WrestleMania week. We then return to WrestleMania.
Digging a deeper hole, perhaps? The theme of CM Punk hits to a ton of heat, but it doesn’t play for long as he strolls out alone with a microphone in hand. He begins to preach to the WWE Universe, saying that tonight; he will behead The Viper, and in the process, take over the WWE Universe that follow him. He then says that ironically, his hand will be raised by the very figure who is the polar opposite of what he represents. The beer-swilling, Stone Cold Steve Austin. The crowd pop at the mention of his name, but Punk laughs, saying that Austin will have to bite his tongue and as he declares CM Punk the winner, and he will be the winner. Just then, the theme of Stone Cold Steve Austin hits to a huge pop and CM Punk look on up the ramp with a sick smirk on his face.
It should be noted that Orton is still slightly limping from his injured knee. Austin calls for the bell and the two lock-up. CM Punk goes straight for the knee, dropping Orton to the canvas. He smiles as he stomps down on the injured leg, and then cockily taunts to the WWE Universe, who boo him. Punk drags Orton out of the ring, utilizing the Street Fight ruling, which means no count-outs. He throws Orton into the steel steps, causing his knee to collide with them, sending him flying over the top. Orton rolls around on the floor in pain. Punk then picks up a steel chair and goes to slam it down on the injured knee, but Orton kicks him in the gut from the floor, forcing Punk to drop it. Orton gets to his feet and grabs the chair himself, smacking Punk in the spine to a huge pop. He throws Punk into the ring and follows him, but Punk gets to his feet first and kicks Orton in the head. Punk drags him into the center of the ring and covers him, but only gets a two count. CM Punk looks at Austin and tells him to count faster, but Austin just ignores him. Punk drags Orton over to the ropes and elevates his knee onto the bottom rope, before crashing down on it. He then lifts Orton up and whips him into the corner. He goes for the shining wizard but Randy drops to the canvas and Punk collides with the turnbuckle. Orton takes advantage and drops Punk with his modified backbreaker. He covers Punk but only gets a two count. Punk rolls out of the ring and starts looking for something underneath it, before pulling out some sort of lead pipe. Orton sees it and stares him out as Punk edges towards him. Orton tries to back off avoiding it, but Punk swing for the knee and connects as Orton collapses in pain. Punk has a psychotic look on his face and aims for the knee again, but Austin steps in and takes the lead pipe away. Punk shouts at him, saying “This is a Street Fight! You can’t do that!”. Austin points to the WWE logo on his referee shirt and tells Punk not to argue. Orton rolls Punk up, but still only gets a two count. Orton takes control and eventually has Punk right where he wants him, preparing for a Punt. He measures him, but all of a sudden… here come The Nexus! They rush to ringside and Randy Orton sees them, preparing to fight. They slide in and begin to attack Orton. But suddenly… STUNNER TO OTUNGA! STUNNER TO MCGILLICUTTY! Austin makes sure they don’t get involved. The big Mason Ryan steps into the ring and comes face-to-face with Stone Cold. Austin simply laughs in his face before… STUNNER TO RYAN! Austin does his signature trash-talk as he storms around the ring. The Nexus roll out of the ring as CM Punk gets to his feet. Punk approaches Austin and starts shouting at him, saying “You can’t do that! This is a Street Fight! Do your job, you alcoholic idiot!” Austin just laughs at him, but then Punk gets physical, shoving Austin. The crowd pop as Austin’s laughter turns to a scowl. BAM! STUNNER TO CM PUNK! Punk stumbles backwards and turns into an RKO FROM ORTON! Orton covers Punk and picks up the victory. Randy Orton def. CM Punk in a Street Fight.
Randy Orton celebrates, still favoring his knee, but Austin celebrates with him. Austin’s theme cuts over Orton’s and they have a beer-bash right in the center of the ring as The Nexus retreat, Mason Ryan carrying Punk over his shoulder, who is clearly out cold. Austin flips the bird as The Nexus leave and we cut backstage.
The Rock meets the Divas The Rock is seen backstage to a huge pop. He is talking to all the WWE Divas happily until Vickie Guerrero and Lay-Cool walk in to a huge amount of heat. The Divas step aside as Vickie approaches The Rock. She tries to come onto him, flirting with him as much as she can, but The Rock is clearly trying to back off, but keeps smiling as to not offend her. He finally has enough and says “Please get this troll away from me!” and the crowd burst out laughing. Vickie is in shock and says “Excuse me?!”. The Rock says “You’re excused… now go away”. Vickie says that tonight, she will show all the Divas and The Rock that she is the most dominant Diva in the WWE. Her and Lay-Cool leave as The Rock looks around confused. He shrugs his shoulders and gets back to talking to the Divas as we fade to ringside.
A very special guest Michael Cole makes his entrance to the theme of William Regal. Cole is wearing similar wrestling attire to Mr. McMahon with the black jeans and elbow pads and taped wrists. He takes off his black shirt to reveal a shirt underneath that reads “Coleminers Unite!” and underneath it says “1-0”, obviously mimicking The Undertaker’s Streak, and predicting that Cole will win here tonight. He smiles as the crowd give him tons of heat. But all of a sudden, the celebration is cut short as Justin Roberts announces that here to call the match alongside Josh Mathews is none other than WWE Hall of Famer, Jim Ross! Michael Cole looks on in shock as JR makes his entrance. He completely blanks Cole out and sits beside Josh Mathews at the commentary desk. We then see the entrance of Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler and the match gets underway.
Michael Cole comically warms up inside the ring as Lawler prepares. Lawler goes for Cole, and Cole immediately backs into his corner, and the referee is forced to stop Lawler from hitting him. Cole says he isn’t ready and has a quick chat with William Regal on the outside. Lawler doesn’t care for this and grabs the jeans of Cole, dragging him back into the ring and dropping him with a right hand to a huge pop. He then gets on one knee and pummels Cole with rights before the referee is forced to stop him. Cole rolls out of the ring and recuperates with Regal. Daniel Bryan praises Lawler.

He drags Lawler into the center of the ring and hits him with a knee drop to the skull. He covers him, but again, Lawler kicks out. Cole looks around and then says something to Regal. Regal distracts the referee, complaining that he isn’t doing his job. This allows Cole to pull the turnbuckle cover off the top turnbuckle. He then picks Lawler up and goes to whip him into it, but Lawler reverses it and Cole flies into it himself, and is knocked out cold. Lawler climbs up top and is about to go for his signature Fist Drop, but Regal enters the ring and stands in front of him. Out of nowhere, Daniel Bryan jumps in the ring and takes Regal down to a huge pop. Lawler comes off the middle rope and watches as Bryan and Regal brawl. Cole trips Lawler up and locks him in the Regal Stretch to a gasp of shock from the crowd. The referee sees if the submission is been made, but Lawler makes it to the ropes. Cole gets up and starts arguing with the referee, saying he should have won by now. Lawler gets to his feet and decides to return the favor with a submission of his own… THE LEBELLE LOCK! William Regal sees this and runs to break it up, but Daniel Bryan locks in the LeBelle Lock too on Regal! The crowd erupt as both Michael Cole and William Regal tap out simultaneously, giving Lawler the victory. Jerry Lawler with Daniel Bryan def. Michael Cole with William Regal.

He and Christian leave, side-by-side as Edge raises his World Title one last time at the top of the ramp. We then cut to a promo package.
We see a promo package, building the hype for Undertaker versus Triple H. It shows how it started, and some interviews with various superstars such as Chris Jericho, John Cena, Randy Orton, Wade Barrett, Mr. McMahon and even Shawn Michaels. We then cut to ringside.
These two iconic superstars go face-to-face, staring each other down. Things kick off when Triple H mocks The Undertaker, doing his signature cut-throat taunt. Undertaker shakes his head before dropping The Game with a right hand. He lifts Triple H up and throws him into the corner before unloading on him with rights and lefts to the head and gut. However, Triple H stops on of his shots and reverses the situation, throwing Undertaker into the corner and giving him the same treatment. The Game then delivers some hard chops to the chest, the WWE Universe providing the “Woo” reaction.

Undertaker then back body drops The Game all the way to the floor as the crowd erupt. Undertaker pulls the Spanish announce table apart and they both go up on top of it. Triple H fights back and is looking to go for a Pedigree! But The Undertaker battles out and instead, returns his hand to the throat of Triple H, lifts him and… CHOKESLAM THROUGH THE OPPOSITE ANNOUNCE TABLE! The Undertaker collapses off the Spanish announce table as Triple H lays out cold on the other that is now broken. Lawler, Mathews and Ross try to move out of the way, in disbelief at the impact. Undertaker re-enters the ring as Triple H somehow manages to get to his feet. Undertaker bounces off the ropes and missiles over the top, hitting The Game with his signature suicide dive! The Undertaker is pulling out all the stop, possibly because he knows Triple H is his toughest opponent. After a couple of minutes, the two get to their feet and end up back in the ring. The Undertaker covers Triple H, but he kicks out! He can’t believe it. Undertaker lifts him up and goes for a Tombstone Piledriver to finish it off, but instead, Triple H struggles and inverts the situation and… TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER TO THE UNDERTAKER! The crowd are in shock as both men lay out as Triple H uses Undertaker’s own move. He manages to roll over and make the cover, but Undertaker kicks out!

That was reminiscent of their WrestleMania X-7 encounter. Both men lay out, when all of a sudden… Shawn Michaels walks down the ramp! He has a serious look on his face and he enters the ring as both men lay out cold on the mat. They both start climbing to their feet and Michaels looks like he is making a choice. Suddenly, he backs into the corner and measures The Undertaker! He is lining him up for the Sweet Chin Music! He goes for it… but stops. He shakes his head and mouths “I can’t”. But then all of a sudden… SWEET CHIN MUSIC TO TRIPLE H! The crowd erupt with a mixed reaction as Michaels says “I’m sorry” before leaving the ring. He walks up the ramp looking upset at what he had just done. Triple H starts getting up and leans on the middle rope and stares up the ramp at Michaels with a blank expression.

Undertaker covers Triple H and picks up the victory. The Undertaker def. Triple H in a No Holds Barred Match.
The Undertaker’s theme hits and the crowd still cannot believe what happened. The 19-0 graphics appear on the stage as both men lay out cold. Shawn Michaels is shown looking extremely sad, and he even contemplates walking back to the ring, but decides against it and leaves, very nearly in tears. EMTS and referees rush to the ring to check on the two icons, as both men are not looking very good. Neither man have moved since the finish, and many are wondering if this is the end for both of them. Triple H starts to move, holding his head, but he still shows no expression. Something has clicked in his head, but nobody knows what. He simply drops out of the ring, struggles to his feet, and slowly staggers up the ramp, his expression not changing one bit. He walks off and doesn’t even look back. The Undertaker still hasn’t moved, apparently in critical condition. They bring out the stretcher vehicle and they place him on it. The Undertaker is carted out of the arena as we fade to a promo package.

He does eventually, but The Miz kicks out! Cena can’t believe it and gets to his feet in shock. He goes to pick The Miz up, but Miz shoves him and Cena collides with the referee, knocking him out. With the referee now down, Alex Riley throws The Miz the briefcase he carries around and he NAILS Cena with it! Miz throws the briefcase down and tries to wake up the referee, but to no avail. All of a sudden… THE ROCK IS HERE! He runs towards the ring and slides in and ducks a clothesline from The Miz. He then hits Miz with multiple right hands, before hitting him with his signature right hand, knocking him out of the ring. The crowd erupt as The Rock also hits a Spinebuster on Alex Riley, before throwing him over the top rope. John Cena staggers to his feet and sees The Rock in the ring.

The Miz and Alex Riley leave ringside having got what they wanted as The Rock returned to the ring. He stood over John Cena and raised his hand as the WWE Universe popped louder than ever. His theme hits and he taunts on all four corners as this epic WrestleMania comes to a close.
We see a quick recap of everything that has happened here tonight to both WrestleMania themes of “Written in the Stars” by Tinie Tempah ft. Eric Turner and “Diamond Eyes” By Shinedown. We then cut to a close on the show of The Rock stood over John Cena.

WrestleMania XXVI Let's see how you differ this from the real Wrestlemania. Lol at Cole sitting with the Spanish Announce team. I dislike Rock opening up Mania. Just, blah. Morrison winning was best, even Ziggler would've been a nice choice too. Some awesome spots in there like the finish and the Dreamstreat off the ladder. Rhodes winning the match will be great for his career. Would have been cool if you told us Mysterio's attire. Cool segment with Edge and Christian. The faces going over here in a much better match than in real life is okay at best, but I read the match write up like an EWR match. I don't know why, lol. Decent Rock/Austin segment, and vintage Punk promo at Mania. Austin going Stunner happy is so cool. Orton winning was nice I suppose. Funny segment with Rock and Vickie. Cole's shirt saying 1-0 is awesome. Yay! JR! Awesome ending to Lawler versus Cole. Glad to see Edge retain the title over Del Rio and Christian, but that is some confusing stuff going on. Why did Christian just let Edge win the match? Why is Edge upset that he retained his title? We need answers here on Smackdown. Glad Undertaker won, was worried you would have Triple H beat the streak, but what is with HBK getting involved? It really just wasn't needed imo. Undertaker shouldn't have help to keep his streak going. I dislike that. Then the same thing happened after the match in real life too except the HBK crying part. Face divas winning is the best move. So happy that Miz was able to retain. I wish Miz stood tall to end the show instead. Overall good show, just the HBK involvement with HHH/Taker is something I disliked. Good show overall and I can't wait to see the aftermath.

WWE WrestleMania XXVII: Sunday 3rd April 2011...Sorry for the lack of replies in the last week to your shows, but WrestleMania hype gets boring after a while. I think it was the best decision for Santino Marella to win the battle royal, there isn't that many other over men with an actual future in that match. I hate how you decided to open with The Rock in the ring, I see why he opened because he's WrestleMania host, but when he almost forgets Alberto Del Rio's name...that's burial. And I dislike it. Should have done this promo later in the show if anything. Hot Money in the Bank ladder match to kick off the show, and I am glad that John Morrison won. Just keep him face up until after he cashes in; it will help him out a lot since we've had plenty more heel briefcase winners than face briefcase winners. Still hoping you keep to pushing Chris Masters, Jack Swagger, Dolph Ziggler, Sheamus and Drew McIntyre though. Liked the intensity from Cody Rhodes, and that set up for a sweet match with Rey Mysterio, shame it was put on second though, this had to follow a LADDER match. And this was one of the best matches on the card in real life. Happy to see Cody with the win though. It was totally obvious that the dream trio of giants beat the Corre, the Corre has been a failed project at birth, really. They should have been debuted after 'Mania. CM Punk cutting a promo before his match is great. And I liked the build to this match in particular, since it links to Punk running down Stone Cold Steve Austin last August. Randy Orton with the win was best, would have been an excellent Street Fight, also with Austin getting his own way. Hopefully Punk gets a good WrestleMania moment next year. The Rock meeting the divas was alright. Liked the interaction with Laycool. Jerry Lawler seemed obvious to beat Michael Cole, Daniel Bryan managing Lawler was a shame, but I know he'd get involved somehow. Also loved William Regal tapping out at the same time as Cole. Edge retaining the World Heavyweight Championship...Christian could have logically won this one. It would have been a credible victory for him, or Alberto Del Rio could have won. Shame you didn't venture this thought. Nice heated no holds barred match with The Undertaker obviously beating Triple H, I liked the write-up. The six-diva tag team match got the job done, Trish Stratus, Kelly Kelly and Eve beating Vickie Guerrero and Laycool was the right decision. And The Miz beating John Cena was the solid main event we all expected. The Rock getting involved and taking out Miz and Cena was a shame though. Just another WrestleMania moment for Rock. A solid improvement from the real show, just some questionable decisions throughout.

- WrestleMania time eh, looks like a good write up, let's get things started. - Good opening segment with The Rock to kick things off, was kinda the obvious choice since he's hosting and all. I'm hoping for some interesting segments for him tonight. Liking the back and forth between Lawler and Cole as well. - I had a feeling Morrison was going to take the money in the bank match, him and Ziggler were the only two I could really see taking the briefcase. I liked the moments between Morrison and R-Truth as well, do I see an R-Truth turn coming in the near future? - Nice promo by Rhodes, I've been looking forward to this one, it's a midcard stealing match. Nice psychology spot with the early 619 attempt. Their match was solid and I imagine it as having been quite psychology heavy. Loved the ending, sets up a rematch at Extreme Rules perfectly. - Cool to see an Edge/ Christian segment, but I always hate it when they do the whole 'as long as this dude doesn't win it's fine' line, it just doesn't happen. They should always want to be the one to win. - The handicap match was cool, WrestleMania always works well with this kind of midcard filler, more about entertainment than talent. Having the giants go over was the right move, wouldn't have made sense for the Corre to win this one, nice to see Diesel getting the pinfall. - I enjoyed the Rock/ Austin segment, their segments together back in the day were some of the best I've ever seen, so it was nice to see this moment. - Solid street fight. To be fair it was pretty obvious that Orton was going over in this one simply because of Austin. I'd have been annoyed otherwise, simply because Punk could have done with the rub but he gets enough of one simply through his interactions with the rattlesnake. Good match though, you wrote Austin pretty well, loved seeing him stunner just about everybody. - Nice seeing The Rock interact with Vickie, I could see them putting on an interesting segment. - Ross calling the rest of the show? Yes please. Thank god you did away with Cole's ridiculous orange attire. I liked that you made the match kind of even without actually giving Cole any legit fair offence. I'm not a big fan of the whole double LeBelle lock finish, just seemed a big cheesy. Plus I don't see Lawler using the LeBelle lock full stop, would have preferred the fist drop ending. - The triple threat match is well written and you've done a good job of getting the dynamic between Edge and Christian in that they double team Del Rio first. But that ending, just what were you thinking? It's actually the worst way this match could have ended and it's all because of the nod. You could have just had Christian take out Clay and Edge capitalize on it by taking the win but you went with the bizarre idea that Christian wouldn't want to win the title? Just seems like lazy booking. - Taker/ Trips is probably the best write up you've ever done for a single match quality wise, you really captured the importance of the match for these two men. It was obvious that the Undertaker was going to win because you'd be crazy to end the streak in this match but you made it seem like a possibility. Some of the spots sounded like they'd be great to see, especially the chokeslam through the announce table. But there you go again, ruining the match with the ending. There was no need for Shawn Michaels to get involved, it cheapens the match and it certainly cheapens the streak. It's also a pointless endeavor because Michaels is retired and honestly, if you bring him out of retirement then I'm going to be very disappointed because it just wouldn't happen and I wouldn't want to see it happen. Solid match, but I'm let down by the ending, just a poor booking decision. - I could care less about the Diva's encounter to be honest, this would usually be where I'd take my break before the main event but since that isn't possible, I read it. Honestly, I think it's a poor sign of the current Diva's division when the only encounter I actually cared about was between a diva who left years ago and a non-wrestler. Still, faces going over was the right move. Now let's move on, quickly. - Main event time, I'm pulling for Miz in this one, he deserves the victory. Absolutely loved the way you made Miz genuinely look strong in this one, having him kick out of a second AA was a great move. As soon as the ref went down I knew what was coming and yep, Rock costs Cena the match. It was the right move at the actual Mania and it still is here. It's the only way this match should have finished. Having Miz walk out was a nice touch, didn't really need The Rock to take him out. Nice final shot as well. - It was a solid WrestleMania, easily one of the best write ups I've seen from you. I was a little let down by two of the booking choices since there was easily other ways to go that I think would have worked better but it was still a solid show. Looking forward to seeing where you take it from here.

-I like the fact Morrison won the MITB. He's always deserved the main event jump and good timing for it. -Rhodes over Rey is big for his career. Good call to put him over. Hopefully he wins the IC Title now. -Nostagic match here and it was nice to see Nash back in action. Don't mind who wins here. -After reading, this is my favorite match so far. Orton going over is great. Always wanted an Austin/Punk feud ever since that Allstars game. -Lawler getting revenge over Cole was good. I wonder if this feud ends now or not. -Edge retaining was the best way to go. Del Rio seems like he'll be the next WHC. -Epic match between HHH/Taker as expected. A good match with an expected call. -Miz going over is big for him. Cena/Rock should either be at SummerSlam, or WrestleMania. -Great WM; one of my favorites.

Not a big fan of Santino winning the pre-show battle royal, but it would make the fans happy, so it's realistic. Didn't like The Rock opening the show in real life and I didn't really like it here. Starts off the show with a weird pace in my mind. Good write up for MITB, as it wasn't too long, but well told. Hate John Morrison winning, as I don't ever see him as World Title material. Mysterio/Rhodes was a great match and I'm ecstatic to see Rhodes go over. I like him shouting about the knee brace, but I do wish his facemask was more involved in the finish and not just a low blow. Regardless, this gives him a big rub and hopefully means great things for him throughout the year. Obvious that Diesel's team would win, but I hope this isn't the end of the Corre, they have some talent. Awkward but decent Rock/Austin moment. Orton winning following a Stunner to Punk was what I expected. I do hope to see something in the future between Punk & Austin though. Cool to give Vickie & The Rock a segment. Lawler winning was the right call, wish Daniel Bryan was doing more than this at WrestleMania though. Really disliked the ending to the World Title match, although the write-up was great. I think that either Del Rio or Christian should've become Champion for the first time. Maybe if Edge would've stepped aside for Christian to win it instead of it being vice-versa. Great write up for HHH/Undertaker, loved HBK's involvement, as it makes perfect sense. Maybe a Triple Threat match at WrestleMania XXVIII between these guys? Trish's team winning was obvious, but I liked it. Miz retaining was excellent, just like in real life. This was the only way Miz could ever go over Cena in a WrestleMania Title match. Rock standing tall was the clear way to go. Overall, a great WrestleMania, I enjoyed the entire read and it was well written. Looking forward to a lot more.

Santino winning the pre-show Battle Royal is more than okay with me, it's never really meant anything and would start the show off on a positive note for the fans. Cole being wedged in between the spanish announcers legit made me laugh, funny stuff there. Nice promo by The Rock to open the show, and I'm glad he mentioned other matches, as I don't believe he did in real life. The MITB was a good match, although I'm not to keen on Morrison winning. Would've rather had Ziggler win. Rhodes winning with a low blow is a good move, classic heel stuff. Glad he picked up the win. Glad Diesel ended the match with a Jacknife, and I hope you keep him in the ring from here. Cole vs. Lawler was a very entertaining match. I would've liked to see it end with Lawler using the Piledriver or the fist drop, but that might be just me. Interesting way to end the World Title match. Doesn't seem very wrestlemania like, I don't know, but interesting. A complete turn by either Edge or Christian would have been cool. I loved everything you did with Taker and HHH, Michaels involvement was perfect. Glad to see Cena and Miz get a legit match, and it was good! The ending with the Rock was all great stuff, a great way to end mania. Overall, great show from you man. Really good show.

Dig Santino winning the battle royal, honestly. Seeing as it's not much of a serious match - and the fact he was the thirty ninth eliminated in the Royal Rumble! I love Cole being in between the Spanish commentators. Would love to see him snap about it later. Solid opening promo from The Rock. Didn't really care for it as it wasn't much special except him promising to layeth the Smackethdown. Best choice for an opening contest and JoMo winning is great. Could of seen Ziggler or Kingston getting it, too. Good little interview with Cody Rhodes and I am very pleased that he got the victory on Rey for the revenge. Big rub. Show, Kane, and Diesel had to win here. If they didn't - Diesel would look terrible coming back and losing to these guys. Liked the backstage segment with Rock and Austin as well as the Punk promo before the match. I loved the ending to the Orton/Punk match with the Stun-Crazy Austin. Orton winning I am fine with - but I would like to see Punk possibly get some revenge. Though it isn't that big of a deal, I suppose. As long as he doesn't get destroyed again. Jim Ross being on commentary is great. Best decision to have Lawler win in this feel-good match. Not something that would be that great match-quality. But just like Bret Hart and Vince McMahon, it's just a feel-good match that you already know won't be that great but you will enjoy seeing. Edge retaining the gold I am fine with. It seems like you're going down the retirement route. I could imagine this turning into Edge vs Christian with Edge lying to him about retirement to keep the gold. Haha. Amazing match up between Taker and Hunter. The match finish was great and it definitely sets up something. Obvious choice of victory with Trish, Eve, and Kelly. Trish getting the pin on Vickie was the best call. Good match between The Miz and Cena. I am glad that it was actually getting it's time and showing of a main event. Ended great and expected with The Rock costing Cena the whole thing. Him standing tall is excellent. A very good show overall. I enjoyed it, broski.
