One bad match so far, the women's tag. Everything else so far has met or exceeded expectations. That division needs a reboot of some kind.

I was watching that match, which was a last minute injection because there were complaints about the Woman's division not having much in Wrestlemania.



It was almost like they were all rusty. Liv has been steadily improving, but her timing and Ruby's in that was badly off. Mandy and Dana are pretty much a jobber team. But it was.



the card hasn't been bad, I just hate celebrity matches where they run roughshod over veterans, Look I like Miz as a heel, I think that Morrison is incredibly talented, I think that they have zero credibility now in a non existant tag team division. So maybe turn Miz face after Morrison destroys him on Raw.



I did notice that Miz and Morrison were really going out of their way to be soft on Bunny, who I didn't know who he was before all of this, and will be glad when he goes back to his world.

I'd say everything else exceeded expectations, I had no interest in brain vs shane but they cage spot with brain ripping it open was cool

Bunny had less botches than everyone in the women's tag match

[CaptainCrunch]

Sasha actually looks like a completely different person.

[trackercowe]

No matter what an African American starts and ends the show as champion. That's really cool. WWE has become quite a bit more progressive in recent years. No longer afraid to who is their champion(s).

That's because the Miz seems like a great worker. Does whatever needs doing for the business.

[SuperMatt18]

I think the card has been fine.

Pacing actually feels much better than the normal 7 hour Sunday Wrestlemania.

Actually giving matches time to breathe and actually letting some of the matches go longer then the usual rushed WM matches.

Only truly bad match was tag team turmoil.

Again. Not really, no. This year and last year's wrestlemania have both been real good in that respect because of the two day nature.

[trackercowe]

Maybe there's going to be a swerve with Neidhart and Tamina? I can appreciate how long they've been in WWE and their history, but a makeshift forgettable team doesn't belong in this atmosphere.

[CaptainCrunch]

ok that through the ropes dive by Sasha was one of the prettiest ones I've ever seen.


Good booking, youth and power dominates early. Sasha needs to start taking veteran short cuts and cheating. Would love to see a referee knockout, haven't seen one of those in a while. Bring in some Eddie offense.

[rubecube]

This match has been bad ass.

Might just be a style thing for me then at this point. Not expecting spotfests out of WWE and that's fine, but I've found the matches to be very plodding in nature.

I don't know, honestly the undercard of the woman's division just seems to be really weak right now. I love Nattie, I've met her a couple of times and she's one of the nicest people out there. She's also that vet that can make anyone look good. Tamina has been around forever, but she hasn't been a good worker for a while.



Bayley not being on the card has been really exposed as criminal, it might be why Rhea was bought up and Io seems to be on the way. I just look at the workers down in NXT, maybe we see some of the usual post wrestlemania releases in the Woman's division.



They need to also really get Alexa back in the ring, outside of Bayley they don't have a strong heel presence to work against.

The Drew vs Bobby match, I grant you was plodding, but it worked really well. I liked the tempo of Seth and Cesaro.

[CaptainCrunch]

When Bianca was tearing up at the start, I don't know whether it was organic or booked, but that was a great wrestlemania feels moment.

I guess I should specify. Bobby vs. Drew was super plodding. The tag team turmoil thing was a botchfest. I enjoy the New Day match. I'm super over Shane, so it's hard for me to get into any of his stuff but I also thought it was slow. Cesaro vs. Seth was okay but I was hoping for more.

The last two matches have been enjoyable.

[SuperMatt18]

That was a great match.

They really need to stop with the camera cuts, in-match WWE producing is the worst.

Holy #### that cut/welt from that hair whip

[rubecube]

Also Michael Cole needs to just go away.

[corporatejay]

Good match. A few blown spots but they really tried to put on a great show for the main event. I love sasha banks so wanted her to retain but they sold the strength and athleticism of Belair.

Really good card. The only disaster was the women's tag match. I just don't think the division is deep enough for that
