Seriously not as great as i wanted WM to be but what a night. 1st off Rock vs Cena ended stupidly and no doubt there HAS to be a rematch. Cena tried to carry Rock in this match and he should have won it after he caught Rock and turned his cross body into an AA.
HIAC was fn EPIC. Jericho/Punk was also great and had real wrestling. Bryan/Sheamus & Rhodes/Show were two stupid squashes, Kane vs Orton was actually GOOD, Diva match was lame but had 1 or 2 good spots, Teddy vs Johnny was great at the end.
WM28=A small letdown but overall a much better WM than 23,24,25,26 & 27. Rock/Cena II and Lesnar vs Taker needs to be made for WM29 and announced on Raw tonight, It looks like there will be no HHH vs HBK and hopefully we still get Austin vs Punk.

I did not expect The Rock to win. I marked out big time when he won.

Hated WrestleMania, Only thing I really liked was Heath Slater and Jericho/Punk.
Daniel Bryan losing in 18 seconds was a slap in the face to World Heavyweight Championship and his fans. It also ruined the whole event for me.

I came directly to this thread after the show to see people bitching about how terrible the ppv was.

It might not be the best WM ever but it's at least in the Top 5 IMO.

It was better than last year's dump, but not by a whole lot. The finisher thing is too predictable at this point.

Yeah really... no match promos and no closing wrap up of the show? Just felt strange. In the past some events haven't even wrapped up until like 15 mins from now, so they had plenty of time.
D.Bryan losing so quickly was just to LOL pwn him and give fans what they want.
Good show, but the ending was off.

There's going to be a rematch, obviously.
Great show. (Bar the 'performances')

hiac, punk vs jericho, and cena vs rock were the obvious highlights of the night, followed by santino and foley.

Hated WrestleMania, Only thing I really liked was Heath Slater and Jericho/Punk. Daniel Bryan losing in 18 seconds was a slap in the face to World Heavyweight Championship and his fans. It also ruined the whole event for me. This, I was really excited for mania... The one brogue kick and it was just a bit disappointing for he rest of it. Hell in a cell was good though |

Fantastic PPV. Worth every penny with the exception of the ridiculousness of that Sheamus-Bryan match. They could've made that a real match considering the pointless Divas match, the embarrassing Brodus Clay skit and the live performances before Rock and Cena's entrances.
Rock vs. Cena was what I expected. Was it a five star classic? Of course not. But tons of near falls, a red hot crowd that was into every second of it and the result was exactly what I wanted.
Punk vs. Jericho was excellent. I know Jericho's going on tour with Fozzy, but I really thought he was gonna win a few times there.
Tag match was just pointless to me. A few nice spots here and there, but I would've much rather had a Money In The Bank match instead.
Hell In A Cell was the match of the night, easily. So much back and forth drama, the ending with Shawn and Taker carrying out Triple H and all of them hugging was an awesome way to end the feud.
Divas match was blah. Who cares?
Cody vs. Show was pretty weak. I knew Show was gonna win based on the fact that he never once one-upped Cody in this entire feud. Not sure what the point is in him having the IC Title, but I like Show so good for him.
Kane vs. Orton was surprisingly very good. Really surprised Kane won. The Chokeslam spot to end it off the top rope was really cool.
Bryan vs. Sheamus was a joke. I feel like it was a total waste of the last three months and having Sheamus win the Rumble just for it to come to a head like that. Like I said, if they want to do that on RAW or SmackDown! or even some sh*tty PPV in July or something that nobody cares about that's fine. But Wrestlemania? Seriously? Terrible, terrible, terrible.
Best Mania in a long, long time. Can't wait till the Blu-Ray comes out.

Unbelievable. Can't believe Dwayne couldn't put him over. Everything else was great, but damn what a sour way to end it. I'm shocked... Who say's that The Rock didn't want to? Maybe it was Vince who didn't want him to... |

The first hour was absolutely the single worst hour of wrestling I've seen in a long long time.
With that said, Taker/Triple H, and Punk/Jericho were just awesome.
Rock vs Cena was a piece of shit, really.
Definitely not worth what I paid.

I find it funny how everyone was this Mania sucks until Rock wins. -_- I never cared about Rock vs. Cena. They wasted so much time with the performances and long taker entrance and Flash Mom. Yet they only gave 18 seconds to Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan. They have the diva's champion lose to an injured celebrity. The saving grace was CM Punk vs. Jericho. I haven't bought a wrestlemania DVD since WM23 and not buying this one.
