Main event really picked up after the duel fighting in the crowd/ramp. The Rock can't wrestle. Only punches and kicks. Pretty boring to watch it gets old real quick. wtf you want him to do? Super kicks?

Uso match was the biggest disappointment of the night. The build up was pretty weak even with all the past history.
Ripley/Lynch and the ladder match were my favorite two. Well deserved win for R Truth and Miz. They genuinely appreciated the win.
Gunther is on to new things, but I'm still surprised he lost. The brain buster and DDT on the table during the ladder match were the best great moments. Zayn can continue to make the intercontinental title meaningful.

Super kicks? The Usos match showed that those alone don't make matches better. If it did they did enough to ensure a 10-star rating. :lol:

Man I fucking love The Rock. Sorry for calling him a pedophile iron maiden. You were right. He’s fantastic. Then Roman Reigns. My good. He’s fucking beautiful, no? His hair looked great tonight. His physique is just unreal. He is one of the greatest to ever do it.

Punching and kicking had sold out more arenas than superkicks and back-flips.

Didn't Rock have a move set against Cena during their matches?

i think what didn't work for me was that it felt like the match had enough material for 15-20 minutes, thinking about it 20-30 but it went (according to Wiki) 44:35.
yes, it's the rock and you don't want to cut his appearance short but cut out some of the rest holds (reigns + cody + seth can fill while rocky takes a breather), the staredown pops that weren't and it flows from beginning to end, instead of being slow til it isn't and by the time it picked up i was already kinda mehhhh.
but in general i kinda feel like the squidward window meme reading about all y'all loving the match. i didn't but really wish i could have along with you

This version of the Rock is one of the most intimidating guys I’ve seen in the business. He has so much evil in his eyes, he looks like an absolute killer. Great match. Decent show, would have been better if the crowd weren’t freezing their asses off. Two of my mates are there, and they’re used to cold Welsh weather like me, and they said it was absolutely freezing in the stadium.

Also maybe Jimmy got injured? Seemed like an awkward pace to the match and maybe they called an audible.

I did think it was odd that he some how highjacked the HOF and made the widow of Ali award him his own Title Belt.

Yeah I really want to know who's idea it was to give him that belt at the HOF so he could carry it around last night. Reeks of little brother syndrome.
"Mom said it's my turn with the championship!"
"Well you have to take it from me!"
"MOOOOMMMM!"
"If you two stop fighting I'll buy you a championship too!"
Like is he going to defend that title eventually? Is it recognized by the WWE? Why does he get to carry it around like he earned it?

Roman should just unify Rock’s title with his.

First it was Taz...then it was Paul E...
Wrestlemania XL, Night II - it's going to happen and when it does PW will never be the same, again.

Why does he get to carry it around like he earned it? He’s getting so much heel privilege it’s unreal. People twisting themselves into a pretzel to justify his shit. Happened years ago with Jericho too. Rock was two hours late to a show in Philly this weekend and people were calling it ‘genius’. Heel privilege indeed. Sometimes these people are just marks for themselves.

There’s just so much malice in the way Rock does things right now. It’s fucking brilliant.
As for the show as a whole, I really enjoyed it. But I just feel it didn’t hit that other gear as the show built, like last year did. The crowd didn’t sound too good either on TV.
