And yeah I'd say this ME was better than last year. Crowd was more into it tbh
|
As bad as the match was this is one of the most emotional moments in a long time.
|
Fully expect Vince McMahon to be crying like a baby on WWE 24

Orlando the Retirement home of Flair and Taker
they can go back in a few years for Cena |
I dunno. I thought the match was actually pretty good. It wasn't a classic or anything but considering the age and health of Taker, I'd have to say I was actually surprised he pulled that match out.
The botches kinda killed it near the end. But nonetheless, I thought it was a solid last match. Wish they'd have turned Reigns heel but I feel like that ship's gonna sail. |
Just hate to see him finish on that. Lots of mistakes and not befitting of the man.
I think he will be disappointed looking back. The story is, at the end of the day, retiring because he is not physically capable of performing anymore. |
Fucking lost it on the arm raise.
|
The last larger than life superstar in the company has retired. Feels surreal even if it is needed.
|
This send off for Taker was great.
|
Going to cry like a baby at the retrospective tomorrow with this theme...

God damn.

I feel like Undertaker has left the ring the exact same way for the last 5 wrestlemanias

Fear the spear

Roman didn't need to turn heel, but there was nothing interesting he did. He just spammed superman punches and hit a bunch of spears. No growth in his character, no new wrinkles or developments. Just some really vanilla stuff IMO. |
Even though I've watched far too much wrestling tonight, I want to pick out an Undertaker classic on the Network to watch before bed. I don't want the last Taker match I see tonight to be that one.
|
They couldn't spare the extra 90 seconds after all that for the traditional recap? Fuck off, Vince.

I witnessed the debut, and I have apparently witnessed the retirement. Thank You 'Taker for everything.
|
I give the whole damn show an F-
The only + were bliss & bella ass. The Hardys. I'm going to end up turning into that TNA mark psychopath Creature. |
I was 6 when he debuted. He transcended generations of fans. Thank you Taker.
|
Wow this was a bad way to end mania
|
That was def the right match to end on imo. Would have been ridiculous to have another match on after that I think.

Pretty good show all around. Watched more than I thought I would and only didn't watch the Raw Women's match.

As much as I hated that match, the send off what quite a thing. Thank you Taker.
|
Would have been the perfect fucking time for a Sting message. derp derp I bet Angle becoming GM tonight will fix today's shit show.

Wow... that's exactly how I hoped that The Dead Man would be sent off. Perfect, very emotional. Great main event. Really great show, wayyyy to long but that aside, amazing matches all night. I'd say the best was Shane/AJ, Goldberg/Lesnar, Taker/Reigns, Ladder Match, and the fatal four way women's match. Really great WM.

That was a great Mania and quite an emotional end. I don't think Reigns was the right person to do it and the match and drama of the match suffered because of it. He didn't get his HBK/Flair moment because Reigns isn't a good enough all round performer to do it with, but it was a touching end.
All in all, a variety of great moments and a really quality Mania. |
I could see Taker actually not wanting to go into the HOF right away and wanting to miss a Mania or three before re-emerging as a regular guy to do his speech.
Vince will likely want him in as soon as possible though especially with next year being in New Orleans. |

None of the matches seemed like instant classics, but all the matches were solid. The Hardyz return and the Last Ride of the Deadman were major WrestleMania moments. Weird feeling WrestleMania, and I'd also give it the B to B+ range. Good WrestleMania, but it could have been one of the all-time great ones with all the potential this card had.
Also...F*ck you,Roman Reigns. |

fuck off Damn inator.
Also wanna point out JR called a really solid main event. Not his GREATEST HITS by any means, but he seemed "on". Particularly impressive given what he's been through the past couple of weeks. |
