Need to watch preshow still but
  • Aj vs Shane: A- this match had no business being as good as it was. She has been training really hard for it...Impressive
  • KO vs Jericho: B+ it was what you expect, pretty good, and ends the feud.
  • Woman's four-way: B Nothing legendary, but everything was well executed. Did not like the finish but only because bailey won.
  • Tag team ladder match: A+ a goat WrestleMania moment, and shocking win. Perfection.
  • Cena Nikki vs Miz maryse: B a bad finish because it was just a sudden nosell finisher hit and a pin..Miz was amazing though. I liked the proposal and the crowd did too even they didn't have the heart to boo.
  • Wyatt vs orton: D+ this shyt sucked. The finish again was abysmal which is a trend tonight.
  • Brock vs goldberg: A+ FIRE. Perfect power match and booking. Both looked great and the single spot was awesome. Light years better than any of their battles.
  • Smackdown woman's schmozz: C- it was fine...The right person won.
  • Undertaker Reigns: D- it's not an F ONLY because of the retirement. This was absolutely terrible and undertaker should've known better. Even outside of the tombstone fukk up, undertaker forgot A LOT of spots where he was supposed to turn Roman moves into others, like the superman to chokeslam spot they did twice. Really bad. Would be a WOAT mania match candidate if not for the ending.
  • Overall: A- show. I'd put it on the mania XXVI or mania XV level, not on the X7, XXV, XXX, XXXI level. Better than XXXII.

I agree with all of this

you forgot Rollins vs HHH snoozfest. I'd be shocked if you still give the show an A- when you add that match.

Mania wasn't an A- show. Review it a week from now. General consensus is that it peaked early.

No way in hell was that an A- show :russ::russ: maybe for people who were there live and got to be within all the atmosphere and festivities, but just straight up watching it, it was B- at best, which is honestly far better than what I thought it would be given the build of a lot of these feuds

Good call, I still call it an A- because it got a lot of hate but I loved HHH's presentation and entrance, and the heat the match started with, but damn, that was a fairly bad match. Far too long. I'll add it to the review.

WWE needs to give Rollins a different finisher. I tried to get over it, but him using the Pedigree sucks. While he was a heel. It totally made sense, but as a face using an iconic heel finisher... Nah.

He needs to stick with the Phoenix Splash, God's Last Gift, Falcon Arrow or make an original finisher.

NOT wanting the curb stomp back, but anything else but the Pedigree.
