WWE WrestleMania 28 Discussion Thread - April 1, 2012 from Miami, FL

I'm genuinely surprised.

And this.

Michael Cole just actually called this "The Greatest Wrestlemania of all time" It's not even in the top twenty you Laryngitis c*ck sucking arse hat.

I'd have loved to have seen Lesnar, A-Train, Batista or someone else. As far as what we did see, I wish Bryan would have retained or at least lost a decent match, and I think the tag match should have been an elimination.

Overall though, I thought it was pretty good. Not exceptional in any area but I enjoyed it quite a lot. Just a fun show and The Rock winning was a nice finish to it.

[Ciaran The King]

No Lesnar, no Batista, no heel turn. Well done WWE you really know your fans

You realise that there was no guarantee lesnar and batista were going to be there...just because they are doing business doesn't mean that WWE are ready to present them to the world - I certainly didn't expect to see them tonight.

What I did expect was a much better WrestleMania. I didn't get that either.

[H}{H-Evolution]

Well, either way...people shouldn't have been expecting those two to turn up tonight.
It's just way too soon for that - that's something to build up to, beginning with tomorrow's Raw.

And at this point, Cena's not turning heel...that's just how it is.

Okay so it wasn't the best Wrestlemania ever, but it was way better than last years, Hell In A Cell was awesome, Punk/Y2J was good as was Rock/Cena and with the exception of the WHC match I thought it was pretty decent Even Orton/Kane was better than I thought it was gonna be lol!

[John Hancock]

That was f*cking weird old Wrestlemania there. A lot of those matches had an air of swerve-for-swerves sake. Kane over Orten? Show over Cody? Sheamus squashing Bryan? Really strange.

I was surprised by Rock winning though, as I said on Wrestling 101, it was the only outcome that made any sense in terms of the future.

Trips/Taker was great, Rock/Cena and Y2J/Punk were both good, everything else, backstage skits included was between bad and terrible, but the three main events delivered, so I left the show with a good taste in my mouth, which makes it all worth while in the end.

[Maxximus]

Not counting the lackluster first hour, I really liked the show. Taker/Trips was perfection and easily makes up for anything else on the card. Jericho/Punk was good, but I wanted it to go on longer than it did. The finish felt premature for some reason. Cena/Rock would have been great if the crowd was into it more. The scorpion was dreadful and the rest holds unnecessary for two guys in such good shape. I did like the finish although I had expected Cena to win.

It felt like Wrestlemania to me and I enjoyed the hell out of it.



Also, Daniel Brian jobbed to Sheamus?
