Some of the match moments on night two were sheer fun. But the booking in the end slipped back into bad habits.



Overall though one of the better wrestlemanias in a while.
One of the main reasons I enjoy AEW over WWE is they generally keep the screwy finishes to TV and let the wrestlers just put on a showcase at the PPVs. Obviously there are some notable exceptions (looking at you "exploding death match") but, for the most part, the blowoff matches are clean.

I get that's a bit easier when you're not running monthly PPVs, but I feel like the big PPV matches should just be two wrestlers seeing who can get the better of the other, with the obvious heel tactics and tropes tossed in.
