WWE WrestleMania XXVII

[Ernest]

That.....sucked.

Not quite as bad as WrestleMania IX, but still pretty shit. 7

Orton/Punk, Taker/HHH and The Rock hitting Cena with the Rock Bottom were about the only bearable moments for me.

I was really looking forward to it after the build up and felt short changed at the end, too much filling and not enough 'wow' moments.
Not sure where the WWE goes from here, Triple H and Undie are finished, Rock will only be mega shows at best, so really now it's time to build up Miz as the main eventer as there ain't much else they can go with

Few things that need to happen if they need to bounce back from this, was thnking about these just afer the show.

1. Vince needs to hand overall control of the product over to HHH and Steph McMahon-After some of the decisions he took last night to extend and reduce certain matches length times, whilst scrapping the US Title altogether, it might be time for him to move aside for some fresh un-egotistical leadership
2. Steph and HHH then need offer Paul Heyman WHATEVER he wants to get him back on board as Top Dog in WWE Creative-the man is a GENIUS.
3. JR and King MUST be the announcing team for RAW
4. The RAW GM has to be revealed As soon as...the use of it last night was ridiculous, and it needs to end.
5. If you're gonna have Cena fight The Rock, turn him Heel, YES HEEL!!

any more suggestions to the above?

I thought JR was crap last night, much prefer Michael Cole. The sad thing is that having relied on the same old faces for the last few years there is nobody bar the Miz who has broken through and stayed there, will take a hell of a lot of rebuilding now to make a decent Wrestlemania for next year.
Things that could have been huge like Nexus have been wasted.

jr was total garbage last night. time to retire him for good. michael cole has come on so much in the last year or so compared to him that it really is ridiculous, so much so that with him at the table you dont even notice how shit lawler is

they had the perfect chance to build up some new stars last night - sheamus, miz, wade barrett, del rio, even morrison and ziggler all could have been put across. but what do we get? triple h nearly killing the undertaker and the show being built around a man who had been out of the business for seven years

it really was f***ing dire

I just watched this again, and I thought it was pretty good!

Haven't watched it since, don't intend to. Ridiculous booking, still the worst mania in memory for me. My mate who I went to the Raw taping at the O2 with in April disagrees...but only because he was there so that's fair enough!

Funny that this thread should appear tonight. Apparently they were really bigging up how well the Olympics went last night on RAW, with either Cole or King apparently mentioning "could be a great place to have Mania one day!" - or something along those lines.

A few months back a cryptic tweet sent from one of the WWE's accounts mentioned that WMXXX would be "an event of Olympic proportions". Most people narrowed it down to The LA Memorial Colliseum (Hosted '84 games, plus apparently WWE wanted to host a PPV there in '91 but couldn't) or Wembley.

I may be reading into this all a little too much, but this makes me think there's an even greater chance of it being here, and if that came to fruition then that would be absolutely amazing!
