Come on, a lot of it was crowd reactions, but it was still better than Cena/Miz or Triple H/Orton.
All I saw was two dudes hugging each other for a long ass time in between setting up their shitty moves. On top of that, they moved slow and there selling only lasted until the next spot. They do not meld well.
 
Better than last year, Maria and her shit pants was hot, UT and HHH was cool and the finish of Punk and Jericho was great. And yay for Johnny winning, future is good hopefully.

Even the last match was enjoyable cause the crowd was hot all match, shame about the little woops finish. Called Rock winning all along, as soon as I heard they were planning a series I knew he'd get this one.

All that though, ruined by D-Bry getting treated like that at WM. :( Not cool. F**k you Vince.

Highlight came pre-show with AJ doing the YES! dance lol. That made me so happy.

YES! YES! YES!
 
Ultimately, MitB was still my favorite PPV int he last 12 months. If they used that storyline going into WM, then we could have go something REALLLLY special.
 
Should have just watched this on repeat, its 4am and I have to be up early. Thought it was kinda crap, probably because I haven't watched any wrestling ppv's for over a decade, and back then it was much better.
 
I would have paid $1,000 to see Cena lose so I'm happy other than that it was a shitfest. I probably won't order any more PPV's. I just wanted to see Cena lose.

Pretty much. The lack of selling the previous move once they switched to offense was terrible,
 
The D Brine squashed soured a lot of the evening for me, but I thought the three matches that were meant to deliver DID deliver, so all in all I think it was worth the money.
 
The best part about the Cena loss was that he lost by acting like a fucking fool just like he has done all feud long. Great way for him to lose.

I don't understand how some of you can't appreciate that. Stupid grin on his face all the way to the loss.
It's called selling the fact that LIKE HE SAID ON RAW, he ALWAYS WINS. As he was going to deliver the The People Elbow from the time he lost, he went from "LOL I got this" to "WTF I blew it, I lost" outside the ring.

YOU WERE FOOLED.

You need to watch Money in the Bank 2011. One of the best PPVs of all time.
 
Truthfully gaf watching Cena is like watching the Warrior back in the days. So why the saltiness? Warrior didn't have much moves either and theres ton of Warrior fans in here

@bryanalvarez: This place just lost their shit #WRESTLEMANIA
@bryanalvarez: This building is the happiest building in the world right now #WRESTLEMANIA
@bryanalvarez: These guys next to me flew 24 hours from Ireland to see Rock win and they are jumping and hugging and losing their minds #WRESTLEMANIA

This is why Rock won.

Cena winning in THIS match at THIS event in THIS town would have been a disaster, even if conventional wisdom says the younger guy who's sticking around should beat the Hollywood celebrity who isn't going to be around for months.

Cena can beat Rock at Summerslam or something and go over him once and for all, and it will be just fine. The setup for this Wrestlemania just didn't allow for Cena winning unless they were willing to accept the crowd shitting all over the "biggest main event in Wrestlemania history."

Difference: Warrior was a badass. Full of electricity. Cena smirks and sucks.

Other than taker-trips, the matches were kind of bland, but the big moments more than made up for it. The pop for the end of the rock-cena match was incredible at the theatre I was at. Well-worth the 18 bucks for the great crowd all night long.
 
I remember seeing him on twitter saying how Cena was the best a year or so ago. Either he's a fan or a dedicated troll.

Totally dedicated. Or have you forgotten about his Boshy sessions?

Nice to read a post that has some common sense to it, well said.

Highly appreciate the gifs man, and definitely watch MITB 2011

It was average overall. The Daniel Bryan/Sheamus bullshit really left a bad taste in my mouth right off the bat. So much stuff they could've cut out to give them time. And who in the fuck asked for the Brodus Clay segment?
