    triple h isn't the main draw anymore? thank god. That no-name irish guy he was fighting was pretty entertaining though.

    It's here:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WrestleMania_XXVI

    Bret Hart vs. McMahon wasn't even a match - Bret just beat the crap out of him along with the Hart family. Would have been nice to see him actually wrestle but was just great to see him in the ring.

    Also the match before had some group called the "Straight-Edge Society" a bunch of wrestler who were "straight-edge" and dissed drugs... but they were dressed in all black and looked like "punks"? It was quite possibly one of the dumbest things I've ever seen in wrestling. One of their guys fought Rey Mysterio and if Mysterio lost, he'd have to join these losers. But it was obvious to everyone even before the match started he wasn't going to lose.

    I tried watching it, but all the feeds are crappy.

    Looking forward to Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels, but I also don't wanna put up with a crappy feed.

    Jericho vs Edge was solid - Edge is still somewhat of a tard and couldn't be any type of character than the one he currently is... but Jericho is still one of the few talented wrestlers left

    I like the reactions of people in the front rows when someone doesn't get pinned and they are freaking out

    My friend invited me over to watch it. I'm not a huge fan, but it was fun enough. I was a huge Bret Hart fan growing up, but even I felt bad for Vince McMahon. I had fun hanging out with my friends and the show was solid, but nothing spectacular. I thought CM Punk was kind of awesome. He seemed like he could perform and he could talk.

    Watched it, was mostly disappointing. Last time I watched wrestling was last wrestlemania. The HBK vs Taker match was ok, but I always hate them "Career vs Something" matches, you always know who's gonna lose.

    Bret Hart physically can't wrestle anymore, hell he could barely do what he did without passing out. A stroke almost killed the guy and it's a miracle he's even able to walk. It's a shame roided up old tards like Hogan can still perform in the ring but an actual talented guy like Hart is in the condition he's in.

    As for the straight edge society, the dude who fought was CM Punk, and he can just be a great heel. He's got great in ring skills and some pretty painful looking moves, but on the mic he can just piss anyone off, which is what badguys are supposed to do.

    Expected. Most fans knew he was leaving after this match, for at least a summer vacation. But he still put on an incredible show.

    It's not really about who wins or who loses, it's all about whether or not they put on a good show. If there are times when you can't really tell if a guy is actually hurt or not, that guy is doing a really good job. Especially if they pull off some big spots and moves. The moonsault from the top rope to the announcer's table? That's highlight worthy right there. I never saw last year's 'taker vs micheals, so I can't say which is better, but this year's was certainly worth it.

    I normally don't get wrestling PPVs, in fact this was the first one I've actually seen since I was like 13. For me to have actually gotten the damn thing it would've had to have been a good show, and for the most part I feel I got my money's worth. It's just that much better when you have other people watching it as well, because then it's a party.

    Amusing highlight of the Orton - Rhodes - DiBiaise triple threat was the sign in the crowd that said "F**K me Cody Rhodes.... Please?" It got on air and was impossible to miss. We had a drunken laugh over watching the security guard in the black suit take that shit away.

    I had no idea people still watched wrestling... I never really watched it growing up, but I had friends who were into it back in middle school (aka over a decade ago).

    However, two of my buddies who I work with decided to go to Buffalo Wild Wings and see if it was playing, just for shits and giggles. The place was packed, and not with younger kids...most of the people watching were 20somethings and older. We ended up having to go to another bar, but as we were leaving and heading back past BWW the whole place started booing and chanting (I guess something when John Cena came out?) Was pretty amusing.

    Caught the last hour or so at one of my friends' house, and it was kinda of entertaining. I didn't really care who won, but the horrible drama and bad acting kept me watching.

    I enjoyed it last night. My cousins wouldn't shut the fuck up though.

    The HBK- Taker match was great. And I'm happy Cena got his fucking belt back.
