WM 24 was great because of the incredible atmosphere. Best of any WM.

I'm really excited to see what the fireworks display at the end will be like this year.... Hopefully without burning several dozen people.

The finish to this year's will be controversial due to Shawn screwing Trips, so Taker must do one more to prove himself.
Taker and Kane for Wrestlemania XXIX: pyro, fireballs, lightning bolts, and holes in ring galore!
And not once since Feb 2004.
Only 60 submission victories? What does and doesn't count in this list?
Also, what are the chances Maria Menounos announces a substitute for herself at mania and it ends up being Kharma? Giving Kharma-Beth no build up at all is totally something WWE would do.

Punk made him tap.
Wow, is Punk the owner of that sole submission win?

My Member!
How many has Hogan lost? It's gotta be less than that. I remember Angle beating him at the KOTR by submission, and Lesnar kill hugging him on a Smackdown I believe.

It's great seeing the sky change throughout the MITB ladder match and the use of fireworks in Flair and Batista's entrances, that and the stage setup itself is very nice, the last WM stage setup i've truly liked as most of the recent ones just look like a huge mass of screens, they can make some great effects with them but there's something lacking about them at the same time.
Kind of funny that the darkest wrestling character on the show finishes with a colourful fireworks display.
And now here's Carlito fighting a fake seagull and Batista being such a top face

Wasn't there an incident when that happened where people were burned?
Fuck yeah. Damn Hellfire!

As Geek mentioned, yeah there was a blunder with the pyrotechnics, lets hope that doesn't deter WWE from using tons of fireworks again. In fact a quick search had me find this.
WWE should just have said it was Kane, he was jealous of Taker's superior title win and burnt some folks to cheer himself up.
Whoever is going to Wrestlemania John Pollock and Wai ting from the law will be at these events during the weekend:
-Friday afternoon Ring of Honor Fan Fest
-Friday night WWE Fan Axxess
-Saturday morning WWE Fan Axxess
-Saturday afternoon Ring of Honor Showdown in the Sun
-Saturday night WWE Hall of Fame
-Sunday morning WrestleReunion
-Sunday afternoon onwards WrestleMania

Damn straight. Come on people, Kane/Taker is how both their careers should end at WM. It makes so much sense that the WWE is bound not to do it. I'm guessing it'll either be HHH or Cena.

To be fair, Kane also delivered the quickest squash in Wrestlemania history at 24. Poor Chavo (lol).
Brock Lesnar, mang.
IF they did Kane/Taker though, what kind of match could it be? They already went through No Holds Barred, Hell in a Cell, and Buried Alive just 2 years ago.
No holds barred, hell in a cell, casket, buried alive inferno match!
Where weapons are not only welcomed..... they're allowed!
Cage explosion time bomb deathmatch.

I'll take back what I said about Lesnar, because he was pretty great. I just don't want him anywhere near an Undertaker match for Wrestlemania.
I won't take back what I said about Goldberg. He's a jerk and a fuckface.

I didn't care about Goldberg until he put on that 5* classic with Lesnar.
I'd say they both cemented a place in the HOF with that performance

Nah, you were right the first time, Lesnar sucked.
Okay, maybe he doesn't actually suck, I just never liked him or found him entertaining bar wheeling that Gowen guy down some stairs.
Lesnar should in no way be his retirement match. I would like to see it, but retirement match? No.
BTW, I fully expect Lesnar at the RAW after WM to challenge Taker for WM 29.

Lesnar can guarantee it'll be for the WWE title, and then we'll get a 9 month long Cena/Lesnar feud.
Come at me, IWC.
Edit: Am I going crazy, or do I remember an article where Goldberg said he'd come back to fight Lesnar?

You know what? I'll admit it, and I'll even take Wrecker making fun of me for this, but I would mark out for a Taker/Kane retirement match. Gimme a good build, and you can add in all the mood-lighting, fire and lightning you want.
Are you kidding? Net cries every night hoping for a Kane/Taker WM retirement match. It would get the two biggest supernatural guys out of the WWE.
Until the return of Kevin Thorn!!

-Multiple accounts on Twitter have reported that some WWE talent and employees are staying at the InterContinental Miami hotel for WrestleMania week in Miami. According to the tweets, The Rock, John Cena, The Undertaker and The Miz have all been spotted at the hotel in the last couple of days.
Anyone else going to Mania want to hang out in front of the hotel and cut Ultimate Warrior promo's on guy's?

8PM eastern, 5PM pacific & 1AM GMT - and yeah, hopefully we'll have a few of WrassleGAF watching live considering the $1.99 price.

Just got my copy through today, can't wait to watch Willie Mack vs Naruki Doi and Masaaki Mochizuki vs Roderick Strong.

Yeah, they are yours to watch whenever if you purchase - the replays should be up 2-3 hours after the events.
Same goes for the DGUSA shows, although you can buy Friday's show for $1.99 to watch it live-only.

So Wrasslemania gonna have its own thread or we making it

Willie Mack will be the PWG champ by the end of the year. Or win BOLA. I guarantee it
Yea, the DGUSA show was why I was asking about the ROH replays. I knew that the DGUSA show had to be watched live but I also wanted to order the ROH shows and make it a giant weekend of wrestling. I just didn't want to have to choose between DG and ROH but it's cool that I can choose both. Thanks for the clarification.
Yeah, someone was planning on making it.
