Reader Comments:

"From top to bottom, it was a great spectacle. If the only match on the card was Ric Flair vs. Shawn Michaels, it was worth it. But the great WWE title match and an interesting Floyd Mayweather/Big Show fight helped make it better. "
- WholeNewOutlaw

"No long rant for this one – it’s Wrestlemania. Ric Flair’s last match and CM Punk winning Money In The Bank made this PPV of the year long before the show was over."
- Reverend JJ

" Another fantastic outing on the grandest stage of 'em all "
- Martin


Staff Comments:

" Normally I stray from everyone else and vote for a ROH show as I have in past years but A) ROH has become formulamatic for me and B) for the sheer spectacle alone, Wrestlemania should be the top PPV every year. It always seems special to me and always has that look to it as you know you are watching history. From the elaborate set to the big time matches to the celebrities to the record breaking crowd. It just stands out compared to every other show. Add that to the fact that it was Ric Flair's retirement match, Floyd Mayweather actually performing well in a wrestling match and everyone on the roster stepping their game up and performing their hardest in the ring, you had a fantastic show."
- Matt Dawgs

 

"I'm a sucker for WrestleMania, and this year's event brought back the "big event" feel, with a huge outdoor arena, a nice little sideshow match and some solid main events. Simple as that."
- Canadian Bulldog
