djsandman, I see Greg "The Hammer" Valentine in the background of your picture with Kevin Nash and am overjoyed that you didn't actually pose for a picture with him. A friend and I did a complete Wrestlemania rewatch a few years back and we both couldn't stand him. I've heard he's such a tool nowadays too. XD
Was it just me or did Maria have a brown / dark stain of some sort on her pants?

it's pretty easy to sell a rib injury when you actually have one. that just made it harder to watch for me. i mean, Phoenix can do a lot to protect a skinny little thing like that, but it would have just taken one botch for things to get really ugly.

Sheamus/Bryan by far. That was only 18 seconds of misery. Kane/Orton had to go on for at least 18 minutes.

Scott Steiner has been released from TNA.

One of these matches had the outcome I wanted. :/
I'd swap the results of every match if I could only change the outcome of the WHC match. 
Kane winning with a top rope Chokeslam was ten kinds of amazing though...

I'm done with the WWE if he somehow swindles them again into signing him.

A 5-on-5 tag match featuring Mania opponents was announced on Saturday night.
But given the way the WWE books, Vince has probably changed his mind a half dozen times since then so who knows?

Hey, at least Kane won. Right guys? Once more!
So good, genuinely the Wrestlemania moment for me. Kane beating Orton was more awesomely unexpected than Rock beating Cena.
He beat Orton clean, CLEEEEAAAAAN! no dodgy knee focused RKO's either, just a delicious top rope chokeslam.
If gaf followed my glorious advice and became Kaneanites then they would have had the bitter taste of Bryan/Sheamus washed out far quicker and would have got their WM moment.
Now lets have that momentum continue!

I don't understand why a guy like Steiner can't stay in one place for a long time.

Is it just me or are there a grand total of two diehard Kane fans responding back and forth to one another about how great his victory was last night? They do realize that kind of thing will only make people hate Kane, right? (As for me, I think the guy's awesome.)
Incidentally now that all of the good topics have been moved out of OT, you can now find TWO distinct Ed, Edd n Eddy threads on the first page. How about that?

So wait, he's not going to be on Ring Ka King anymore?
You forgot to mention his tweets after his release going after Hogan and TNA booking team:
They just don't listen. What made it so great, was that it was just so damn unexpected. I gained so much more respect for Orton for being willing to do that, and I wouldn't even mind if Kane ends up jobbing to him at ER (he should too, btw).

It was honestly one of the very few bright spots from last night's show. Don't ruin it for us. Kane has been going strong for 15 years, and survived the worst angles in wrestling history. Two guys posting about him on here won't change anything. Besides, the Kane discussions we do have involve way more people than just me and Owl. BTW, you got into a Kane discussion a few pages back with Spin and a few others that didn't involve me or Owl, so there.

i'm not sure how a clean win over Orton is going to upset anyone other than total Orton marks. it made me think 'good for Randy agreeing to let Kane go over clean to help rebuild Kane's monster gimmick'.
Orton is the kind of guy who can leap into the main event picture at the drop of a hat. that's still true today. also, if all of Randy's matches where he gets beaten up for ten minutes end with him hitting the RKO out of nowhere for the win, it kind of ruins the fun of him hitting the RKO out of nowhere after being beaten up for an extended period of time.
Yet Cena buried the monster without a problem, just so he can look strong for Rock...... and lose...
Wait, what?
And why was Ryder's push sacrificed for this?
So many questions.

which is why he needed rebuilding, and good on Randy for helping make that happen. Cena needed to look strong for Rock. if Cena looked weak before that match how much would a Rock win mean?
i think we all know why. he wasn't *supposed* to get popular yet and him getting himself over was viewed as dissent. it's a stupid stupid mentality and one that needs to change, but that's the way things are these days.

I felt the same way. The way that match ended just soured me for the first half of the PPV.
That being said, I cannot wait for RAW lol.

Cutting Steiner was a good move. Sure he was making 6 figures when he was signed to bring back Main Event Mafia last year, but after that fell through there wasn't much point of him being there. Remember when he helped Fortune against Immortal and then was in Immortal 2 months later with no explanation? Also saw this in Wrestlemania thread

Nah, it's just you. That was my first post in this thread so far, back and forth you say? an impossibility!
As for your second point, I hate that bloody cartoon.
Okay now the back and forth begins, yeah he can go put over Orton now, i'm satisfied, see we can have positivity in this thread.

Rock winning at Mania was definitely the right move for things depending on how the book the upcoming shows, just noone thought they actually would do it. I think that was Cena's first clean singles loss since 2007 or 2008. Maybe Rock got into Miami and said fuck this and I'm not jobbing tonight and forced WWE to give him the win.

Tonight's RAW will be, and I quote:
"Coming hot of the heels of one of the most controversial Wrestlemainas in recent memory"
I guaran-damn-tee it.

But then I said this, so that makes me an extra idiot.
The question is:
Rock wrestling in a match = once in a lifetime
or
Cena losing clean = once in a lifetime
??

maybe they actually did the math and stopped ignoring the crowd responses. despite all their best efforts they couldn't get the crowd split like they wanted. putting Cena over someone no one wanted to see him put over wasn't going to do anything for his career, because some would say that's BEEN his career.
i'm sure they'll do another match, and i won't even be mad if Cena goes over clean at Mania next year... but how much would it really have elevated Cena to go over a Rock that has barely wrestled in the last decade?
Supercena was already at the top. you can't get more at the top. pushing him back down a bit, gives them something to do with him.

Cena is definitely getting his win back from Rock at Summerslam or next Mania. They are also going to send some heel out there tonight to get destroyed by him most likely, because we can't have him looking weak after that loss, probably Miz, Christian, or Mark Henry.

it better not be the Miz.
so it probably will be.
i'd prefer it if Cena gets his revenge at Summerslam because a win at Mania > win at Summerslam in the history books. i'm guessing Mania though.

Nah, Del Rio will probably come back tonight for the sole purpose of jobbing to Cena.

Who?
After the low buys of last year's Summerslam it's almost inevitable they'll try and use Rock as a draw for this upcoming one.

how does it line up with his filming schedule? if he's free and if he has a film coming out around that time, it's probably something he'd be interested in doing.

Hope they're not thinking Kane vs Sheamus would make good main event material. I see things heading that way based on the way things turned out.

Hopefully D.Brine didn't bother to turn up.
