@lane12124 ай бұрын
Was it overbooked? Yes. Was it poetic? Absolutely. Whether it was Taker coming back to avenge his loss 7’years ago and a callback to the rock and him in the attitude era, cena with thrice in a lifetime, or Seth playing the shield music and taking the shot for Cody, it wrapped up every story with a finish that made me love professional wrestling in a way I haven’t since the attitude era.

@@jaybee4288 Yes, Taker was probably just a back up plan because they couldn't get Steve, but that doesn't change the fact that Taker DOES have history with Roman. Taker DOES have history with Rock. Hell Taker has history with Wrestlemania itself. Plus Taker is just fun to see when he pops up. So in the story of Roman's past coming back to haunt him, Taker does make sense. Two things can be true at the same time.

Seth Rollins really sacrificed everything to end the Bloodline/Roman’s reign. He had the crap beaten out of him on both nights, lost both of his matches and his title for Cody to win, if you really look at it from a character perspective, I think he came out looking fantastic. He kept his promise and gave EVERYTHING. MVP.
@andylin95234 ай бұрын
I love the character growth of Seth in this, all the speculation of him turning on Cody. In character maybe thoughts of it would creep in, but in the end he’s a new Seth rollins, one who’s not a sniveling and conniving bastard but one who now was a fighting champion. Someone always overshadowed by Roman despite Seth coming out on top technically each time. And maybe out of pure spite or genuine growth, maybe a combination of both, gave up everything of his own in order to stick it to Roman and cost him just as much. It’s poetic, it’s a story of brothers who found each other not through birth but battle, and it’s a story of betrayal and revenge that just makes pro wrestling so good.
@jemal9994 ай бұрын
100%, I haven't been a huge fan of him since I started getting back into wrestling over the past year, but every single action he took at Wrestlemania made me respect him more. Even when he lost to Drew, he lost with dignity and admitted that Drew earned it, then coming back in that shield gear instead of one of his weird fancy outfits for the final match.. I just really hope he keeps going in this direction, he might become one of my favourites.

To be honest, I would like to take a moment to appreciate the women matches we had this WM.....phenomenal showcase by all! Idk why WWE never gave us the champion Iyo Skye which she showcased at the WrestleMania.... That match was crazy good... One of my fav of the whole show.... Both of the wrestlers looked so good with their chemistry and Iyo looked like a unrealistic monster who was just bringing some crazy reversals out of nowhere ❤❤ This was one of my favourite WM... Not because we had so many legendary matches... But for the first time I actually felt all the women matches collectively were way more fun and had no low points during the 2 day show. On the 1st day the tag team match between damage cntrl and bianca's team was soo fun... It managed to finally overcome the dead crowd for me cause i was enjoying whatever these guys were doing....

That Ladder match reminded me of the era of Hardyz Vs Dudleyz Vs Edge & Christian, and I was so here for it. You're 100% right about the Uso fight, it needed.. SOMETHING. My friends and I watching were actually almost hopeful that there might be at least a reconciliation when Jimmy was down on his knees, and then when it turned out to be just another fake out, that was honestly kinda dull and disappointing.

My brother in law and I both watched wrestling in the 90s, but fell out of touch with it in the early 2000’s. Last year, as an excuse to hang out and catch up over a couple beers, we watched Night 1 of WrestleMania 39 together. We went in completely cold, having not followed it in years. HHH’s booking hooked us back in, and we followed it ever since and watched both nights of WrestleMania 40 together. What a payoff. I never thought I’d be a wrestling fan ever again, but here I am. Can’t wait to see whatever comes next unfold!

I don't think that the main event was even close of a 5 star match, let alone only considering the first part with only the two guys. But I need to agree that the ending was PITCH PERFECT in every aspect. And Taker appearance was the most genius move that I saw in a WM main event.

The confined Main Event pt1&2 was some of the best work of all time. So overbooked but all for it when it produces reactions like that. On a side, loved the walkout segments for Sami and Owen which could be done more (reminiscent to Michaels and Bret Hart Survivor Series 97)

Fully agree. Roman vs Cody was the greatest match I have ever seen. Every aspect from the buildup to the ring entrances to the performance was flawless. A massive thank you to the Rock whose contribution elevated this storyline incredibly. Moving forward, Cody should be the face champion while Drew is the heel champion. Anything else means WWE is losing money and squandering potential.

Hot take (MAYBE): Roman should take a break until Summerslam come back as a face to face with Rock. Have their feud until Mania 41. Have it be no holds barred for head of the table and have it be both of their last matches (Roman gets the win) Night 2 main event. But it wouldn’t be a title match so have one title match as the night 1 M.E. And the other title as the night 2 opener

Jey vs Jimmy match wasn't particularly exciting but I really hope we see them take this fued further and give us better matches between them. With the draft coming up you can use it to really start planting the seeds of the downfall of the Bloodline. Separate Jimmy from Roman and Solo. In the final main event we saw Solo having a bit of anger towards Roman so I could see him now turning him on him moving forwards.
