Holy shit, worst WM I've ever seen. Punk-Taker was pretty good, but not on the same level as the HHH-Taker match from last year. Brock-HHH was my match of the night, but it wasn't anything to write home about. Can't imagine how the people in the crowd must feel knowing they paid a good amount of cash to go see it live.

Wasn't too amazing. Crowd wasn't in unison (other then Donald Trump hate).
Punk v Taker stole the show. I lost my mind for Y2J.

HUGE!

Spoiler: show

Wrestlemania was god awful this year.

HHH/Brock Lesnar was completely uninteresting and went on forever, killing the crowd for Cena/Rock. The spot fest at the end of Cena/Rock would of gone over better if people actually still cared by then.

**NynJa** · 2013-04-08 01:33

It wasnt even a spotfest at that point

Rock Bottom...REVERSED INTO AA...REVERSED INTO ROCK BOTTOM!...REVERSED INTO AA...OH MY GOD REVERSED INTO ROCK BOTTOM...INTO AN AA...

**noblemountain** · 2013-04-08 04:43

It was also extremely sloppy. Cena was calling spots directly on camera, sometimes yelling them loud enough for us to hear, and then the two of them would proceed to botch half the spot before ending in another sloppy rock bottom/aa.

**Exoduso** · 2013-04-08 06:03

I think the problem was, like people said, that they were just going through the mechanical motions to get the belt off Rock. It seemed like they weren't even attempting to entertain the crowd, and just wanted to get the thing over with. The Rock Bottom/AA fest at the end didn't help either. Their match last year was 10 times more entertaining than this one, and the fact hey hugged it out instead of Cena hitting Rock with the damn belt made me rage at home, so I can only guess people in the crowd were even more pissed off.

Punk and Undertaker took the show but when this happened everyone at BDubs went fucking nuts.

Yeah that was sick! Everyone was all "HE DEAD HE DEAD!!" Overall pretty weak PPV. Show "turning" is lazy writing. Ryberg/Chocolate wasn't bad, but Henry winning was silly. At least he got shell shocked. I give Jericho credit for taking the L, but Fandango can go. Big Ziggles not winning titles is silly as well. Taker/Punk was great. I enjoyed Brock/H but you could see that pedigree on the stairs a mile away, which made me sad because I really wanted Brock to win.

Rock/Cena. Too much bad to say and everyone has already said it. Really hoped for the turn but not surprised either way. Them hugging it out was lame as ever though.

**Tyrath** · 2013-04-08 10:53

Show didn't turn anything. He was a heel who teamed up with faces to deal with a common enemy. It didn't go well, so in typical heel manner he attacked his teammates. Show was not face this year.

Not mentioning Swagger.

They didn't have a buffer match in between those two matches like they always have (eight-man tag). Match was cut to make room for 3 hours of preview videos lol

OMG forgot about it! Yeah I was mad disappointed with him not winning. I'm sure he'll go back into obscurity now.

As far as Show, yeah he was never a true face, just for a few weeks. I don't care about Show either way, but imagine if Orton would've turned giving Show a real reason to turn face.

**Mjd** · 2013-04-08 11:33

Show plays a awesome disgruntled employee.

RAW SPOILER

**Exoduso** · 2013-04-08 14:43

Oh god, I just realized that we're back in a Cena championship era... You know what this means right? Cena walking around with the title backstage "on his way to the ring" and doing weird gestures with Ryder.
Fuck I hope this title reign is short.

**Tyrath** · 2013-04-08 14:47

Dude, you just got your wish granted of Cena winning. Can't have everything. Just be happy that its Cena champ and not the Rock.

And considering Cena hasn't been champ in a couple years, it might actually be a refreshing change.

**Trichocyst** · 2013-04-08 15:14

I like Cena, but what do you do with a face Cena now? Who is left to feud with him that he hasn't feuded before? That's the biggest problem with how things went last night.

**Tyrath** · 2013-04-08 15:18

It was really awkward too because he kept doing heel like things and then kept trying to stay face. Like the way he did the People's Elbow arm swinging. He was mocking the fans essentially, yet he kept turning back to his normal superhero face after the fact. It's just bland. I really don't get the "Cena will never turn" mentality that WWE seems to have. But I don't get the whining about Cena always being champion either. Last time Cena was champion was September of 2011. It may not be the freshest act in the world, but it's definitely not as repetitive as it has been in the past because we haven't seen it in a while. Early news said Ryback would go after him when he won, but with Henry beating him it might end up being Henry going after Cena as his first challenger. After that, I have no idea what they will do with it.

**Mjd** · 2013-04-08 15:24

If Mark Henry wins the belt I want this to be his belt emblem

**Tyrath** · 2013-04-08 15:32

Also potential breaking news? Rock might've left when he's supposed to be on Raw tonight lol..
