Seth won and Brock was protected and we got suplex city out of the deal. Outside of the sting ending it was a fun show. Not the best but I enjoyed it so that's a win. Thanks wwe

The only thing that bothers me is that the best part of The Shield, Dean Ambrose, has gotten nothing at all out of the break up.

Best tag team won. Not fucking hard.

Lol Big Show.

uh. yea. yea. yea. yea.

Diva's match was probably pointless.

The fuck was Sting and HHH.

Rusev is the best.

Bray is fucked.

ROLLINS

Mania was 8/10 for me. Better than I expected, but dammit Stang losing and the Taker match was nothing to be desired.

SETH MUTHARFUCKING DAILY SHOW ROLLINS IS THE FUTURE

There's no way we've all been swerved that hard.

...Have we?

Hahaha, did he just play us like fiddles for the past six months?

I got so into the match I COMPLETELY forgot about Seth-Kun.

Holy shit.

I loved this Mania. Other than the Big Show victory, but that was on the pre-show. I may have disagreed with some of the finishes, but the booking of those finishes was great and the matches were a lot of fun.

Doing that took BALLS OF STEEL.
Think about it. They were leaning so hard on Reigns because he was a fucking red herring. Rollins was always the endgame

HHH said on Austin's podcast that the goal now is to work reality. They swerved everyone with the misdirection using sheets and all the obvious signs. This was brilliant. Brock will want his belt back around summerslam. Reigns gets time to get better. But what about bryan and cena? This move also makes sense because u still have draws on the card with an unproven champ who can main event.

Pretty crazy that even just a year ago most people thought Rollins wouldnt be as big as Ambrose and Reigns. Now he just walked out of Wrestlemania with the belt.

Maybe its cause that was my first mania live, or cause it was awesome, but that was 9.5/10


Only almost stinker was HHH b Sting.

They even took out Ambrose with that ladder spot which explains why he didn't come out to ruin the cash-in...

You will already have Orton saying he deserves a shot because he just beat Rollins, Brock will say he deserves a shot because he was never pinned.
Reigns will get in there somehow.
You have fueds all the way up to SummerSlam with no work needed.

Comparing Seth to Orton all night? The parallels between Cena and Roman?

You bet your ass we're in the new era.

Amazing Wrestlemania. Not as good as last year but certainly better than the Cena-Rock borefests. If Bryan can't be champ, I'm happy that Seth gets a run with it. Get a Shield triple threat going for the belt

I'll take this.

Brock looked beastly. Absolutely untouchable. Kicking out of two spears, and hitting that 4th F5 was beautiful.

I love that the outcome favoured Lesnar until Rollins cashed in, and I cant believe that Lesnar was protected over Reigns. Absolutely the best call.

Even though it was a screwy finish, it's just perfect because Seth Rollins is a fucking scumbag.

The perfect ending would have been Lesnar winning clean, but this is really the next best thing all things considered.

I truly did think it was over when that second spear hit. What a swerve.

Rest of the card results were hot garbage.

Bro. No.

They changed plans because Reigns was completely rejected.

I stand by my thought.

They should have saved the triple threat from this years Royal Rumble and had it headline Wrestlemania.

In terms of match quality, that triple threat from the Rumble was pretty damn incredible and could have easily been a Mania headliner.

This Mania was a clusterf*ck in terms of booking, but I think we all knew that in the weeks leading up to it anyways. Still, I'll take Rollins over Reigns...at least now you've got somewhere for Reigns to go...although, its really stupid that they had Orton go over Rollins...that right there is easy booking. Should have been Rollins weaselling the victory over Orton, then you have Rollins take the belt. There, you have an easy program for Orton to get his revenge on Rollins.

So yeah, this Mania was a complete clusterf*ck in terms of booking (and overbooking at that), but at least it wasn't as bad as I feared...still a mediocre show, but could have been far worse I guess.

Brock is a part-timer at some point they had to take the strap off of him they can't go another year with their world title being on TV and PPVs half the time.

I'm just wondering where they go from here. Brock losing clean makes more sense in trying to get him out of the title picture. But now he still looks like the alpha and omega in terms of kayfabe.
