Jesus this was bad. I mean the ring-work was decent overall - great in some places (IC ladder match, Women's TT match) bad in others (Y2AJ, HHH-Reigns), but the booking and storylines were absolutely abysmal from start to finish. Nothing was resolved, nothing progressed, nothing made sense. Just a complete trainwreck

Y2J vs AJ was a shockingly bad match considering how great the other matches in their feud were leading up to WM. They both looked slow and tired and everything was just off. Really weird.

Wrestlemania is about storylines paying off. We got none of that last night. Let's go over this match by match:

The ceremony where Lita unveiled the new women's title was like 5 minutes. They could have had it right before the match instead of on the preshow

The ending of the Women's TT match was especially bad because 1) It was a spectacular match that did not need a dirty finish, and 2) Charlotte needing a man to help her win undermines the whole feminist angle of it, what with retiring the Diva label and all.

Shane did an elbow drop from the top of the cell onto the announce table. Sick spot, unfortunately Taker got up off the table and dodged it before Shane landed.

Vince: "I know historically I haven't been the most feminist guy in the world but over the last couple years I've really learned to respect women wrestlers and I've decided to bring back the women's title as a symbol that they aren't just " Divas" and can stand on their own as true Superstars. I mean just look at this

He gets booed in almost every arena he performs in, dude.

God I fucking envy people who don't get hangovers. I can get them without even really getting drunk the night before. Like 2 or 3 beers and the next morning I feel like shit.

He's such a pro.

I though the same thing. Their excitement was so forced it was painful. Also, a group of women that age are so into wrestling they sprung for ringside seats? When the fuck has that ever happened? Definitely plants.

That sign perfectly summed up WWE over the last 18 months. The product is so much better when he is not around taking screen time away from more interesting Superstars.

Those girls were a little TOO into that. Like, to the point where I question whether or not they were audience plants.

"Hey man, Raw just started. You wanna come over and watch?"

Vince: "Last week showed that we've heard the complaints about the product and we're gonna make some permanent changes."

Dennis' weird website is almost certainly housed in the dark web, away from the prying eyes of search engines and law enforcement.

My jaw still drops everytime I watch a clip of that spot. 20 foot lateral missile dropkick off the top rope into his dad's chest at the other side of the ring. Unbelievable.

He wasn't technically skilled but he more than made up for it with limitless enthusiasm, complete fearlessness, and a surprising level of athleticism. His many ridiculous spots during the AE included a flying top rope elbow drop into the announce table, a 25 foot blind back-first fall off the jumbotron, and a flying

Vince has created his own "Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence"

Haven't seen it yet, but is this entire episode literally shot in 1st person from Frank's POV?
