I fucking lost it with that part.
The match that blue gives the least fucks about. Win or lose I will won't care 😂
One less ppv main event 😁😁😁
Whoops, it's been a while. It was the Breaking Point 09 submission match I was thinking of that I liked.

Did you actually watch WM 2000 live? This ppv won't be near as bad. I remember watching the IC/Euro match and wondering why the better title went first in the falls.
It was awful. Recent history has shown us that they will deliver (at least) an entertaining PPV.

That ppv was abysmal. I didn't care for it. I've not watched it since it was on ppv.

Then you know it won't be as bad. Think positive, friend.
He debuts
next wednesday
Also AJ and Xavier have good chemistry probably because they worked together before at TNA.
Something surprising on Smackdown is how much chemistry Xavier and A.J. have in the ring together. It's kinda remarkable, especially since Xavier isn't exactly known most for his ring prowess. But for the last few minutes of the main event, Woods was keeping up with A.J. better than anyone else he's squared off with in WWE so far.

Idk man. I've not seen shit that has said, omg this ppv will be better than WM 2000. Even Taker was trying to injure all of his opponents so he wouldn't have to participate. 😂

If Mania is actually good, then it'll be the third one in a row that is. Hopefully it is and signifies that we've turned a corner where the company will always ensure Wrestlemania is at least satisfying.
Well it make sense since they are both tna guys.

Gotta agree
Maybe they trained together in tna?

Look at it this way... Owens, Styles, and Shane are there. It ain't gonna be worse than last year.
Yeah, I'm mostly worried about getting a soft main event out of this one. If they keep up the pace set by the Triple H/Roman beating from this past week and then they just have a standard match at the end it'll have fallen into the same trap as Triple H/Orton.

AJ needs to practice doing that moonsault ddt in a WWE ring, he hasn't hit correctly ever since coming in.
Well they did have one match together in tna 8 years ago where the announcers said AJ was training him though not sure if thats true at all.

Also, people seem to forget with his current character is that he was in the X division in TNA.

Styles vs. Woods in a tag match from 9 years ago... looks like they had decent ring chemistry even then

Yes yes I will!
That last sequence into the calf crusher was pretty dank.
ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN IN THE WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT!
Last year was surprisingly good considering how they came into Mania. I thought it was a good show even if there were no real stand out matches. Although I'd say Brock vs Reigns was booked extremely well. I can't think of many times I popped like I did when Rollins sprinted down. The match it's self was good too.
People who think WM 2k is a bad show are nuts. It's pretty okay. The big problem is that just being okay isn't going to cut it when the roster was stacked like that.
Possibly the most ironic part about the Attitude Era is that only the final WM of it is any good, and its more or less the best show ever made. WM2k is either the worst or second worst ppv that year, same with WM 15.

I'd argue the New Generation has more good WM's than the Attitude era (X, XII, XIII) than the Attitude era (X-7, arguably XIV)

Shoot Thursday: WM 21 would have been the best ever if they had the I Quit and HIAC match on that PPV, instead of the wet fart main events they ended up having.
But big show needed to sumo akibino

Are you saying they shouldn't have given us the second shoot match in the history of the Granddaddy of Them All?
Meltz confirmed that was a work.
When I was younger I was convinced it was a shoot.
Still watching mid-2000s TNA matches, and there's a theme: AJ Styles virtually crippled and killed himself for this company. Nothing but falls from high places, uncomfortable back bumps, head bumps, etc. Just an incredible spectacle. Watching a horrifyingly bloody match between AJ and Abyss. Wow. @-@

I swear to god if you give that PPV anything higher than an F, I'll drop you like a bad habit.
What? I've watched that show about 3 times now. It's dog shit every time.
XIV is arguably still the New Generation as well. Sure, the Attitude promos start...seven months before then but I still go back and forth whether or not the night after WM 14 is the true start or not.

I'd give the mains 2k a C-. That ladder match precursor to TLC is pretty awesome and saves it from going lower

Didn't help that they booked him pretty much as a CAW and didn't even bring his kayfabe wealth as part of his character.
I thought they were going to finally let him have an actual character when they brought back the million dollar belt, but then went nowhere with it and got rid of the belt in a backstage segment

2000 doesn't suck but it's "pretty okay." Lol.
It's Wrestlemania, not IYH. It sucks. It's not the worst, but the last two have been better.

Alright, if I had to guess:
Wrestlemania
Kevin Owens v. Big Show (IC Title)
Y2AJ vs. New Day vs. LoN vs. Social Outcasts (Fatal 4 Way Tag Team Match)
Dudleyz vs. Usos (Preshow)

Big Show is a fixture for the Andre Rumble.
I have no idea who Owens is fighting, but I doubt its the jobber rumble. Wouldn't be surprised if Jericho/AJ/Owens/Ryback ended up in a ladder match.
