    Just watched final two hours. 30 minutes from when Orton entrance started to the start of the match  :disappointed:

    Crowd looked dead, no real wrestlemania moments disappointing really

    To cheer myself up I'm currently rewatching the 6 way Hell In A Cell match from Armageddon 2000

    They need to strap the rocket to Oba Femi

    Penta is astonishing, for a guy that's not built like most Luchadores, he has a crazy level of strength and athleticism

    It would be awful if he returned after that. A great way to end his career.

    What could have been if he wasn't part time.

    Shame about the end to the main event, thought it was a bit lacklustre after everything that happened.

    Apparently Reigns is going full time "all summer" according to him, who dethrones him at SummerSlam then? It's gotta be Gunther or Oba Femi at this point

    The Sandman's final career match, against The Invisible Man managed by Bill Alfonso happened:

    https://youtu.be/tq3_IrStqcw?si=PopIrssUSSNJhKp_

    There are some run-ins in the middle I don't care for but I think they had to pad out the minutes of Sandman battling himself. Then The Invisible Man starts taking out referees   :D

    It's hard to sell it without spoiling but there is a final run-in all ECW+WWF era fans will enjoy. 

    It's the most I've laughed at a wrestling match, it's complete theatre and comedy.

    As someone who hasn't watched any wrestling for months & missed most of the build up, I didn't really know what to expect, but I thought it was really dull.

    Very few 'Wrestlemania moments' & more adverts than action.

    I thought it must have been frustrating not to see any video packages before the matches (The main events being the exception)

    Mania is where some fans dip back into to the product for a weekend, so I think it's a big mistake on WWE's part not to have any recaps to get casual fans engaged and up to speed.

    The Brock/retirement storyline has a fairly obvious route IMO. 

    Gunther told Heyman he expected something in return for helping The Vision in their feud with Seth Rollins…

    And in fairness, Gunther vs Brock is the one remaining match that simply has to happen before he calls it a day.

    I think that's the best wrestlemania main event I can remember for a long time.

    No interference, no real shenanigans, just two middle aged veterans who put on a 5* match. 

    Made up for night 1 imo, but I would like to see it go back to one night only. Feels more of an occasion that way.

    Night 2 much better. Main event was good. Overall though these back to back Vegas Manias have been very forgettable
