I thought it was a great show, best Mania in over a decade. Loved pretty much everything they did, right decisions made almost everywhere. The finish to the main event was kind of weird, but they made the right call with who won and I feel like getting worked up about it is looking for things to bitch about. Kofi-Bryan was the best match of the night, with Miz-Shane a close second.

[Anders]

Never looked less forward to a Wrestlemania, but I will spend several hours tomorrow evening watching it.

what will you eat?

who's your current favorite wwe wrestler?

Ate most of a burrito box. Burrito without a tortilla. Drank a Pepsi Max and ate some M&Ms.

Daniel Bryan

Shawn Michaels

It was a better show than I had thought, but not the best in a decade.

Great
1. Kofi vs Bryan
2. Triple H vs Batista

Entertaining
3. Miz vs Shane
4. Styles vs Orton
5. Main Event
6. Ryder/Hawkins vs The Revival

Decent
7. Usos
8. Rollins vs Lesnar
9. The Iiconics

The rest was meh (Joe, Balor, Angle, Reigns, Nese, battle royals)

i have nothing against him, and maybe i haven't seen enough, but i don't get the daniel bryan love

[BurtReynolds]

Braun should be a megastar if the McMahons weren't fucking idiots.

but Anders is right about Michaels, of course.

I really like Bryan, but a lot of that is because of his old Roh stuff. He did a lot of mat wrestling and heavy strikes, which is my favorite style.

It's also kinda crazy when you watch someone go from wrestling in front of a couple of hundred people to headlining wrestlemania.

Picking Shawn Michaels over Bret Hart is indefensible, though.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

is bryan better on the mic as a heel?

[JuanHamm]

Yes, but you could say that about pretty much everyone.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

Yes, but you could say that about pretty much everyone.

i dunno...i've seen plenty that are equally effective for the most part at both

i've seen him more as a face and he just had this goofy grin on his face and gave an average promo

is bryan better on the mic as a heel?

He is much better on the mic as a heel. He is the best talker on Smackdown right now.

[lennytheweedwhacker]

which rmer would be the best on the mic?

[Anders]

Bret is way too negative. He was a good tag team wrestler, and then a great singles wrestler for a few years. I would cheer for him against Michaels back then, and also defend him as being better. But this was in the early to mid 90s. Since then Shawn has had a remarkable career, and Bret has done nothing but whine. Even near the end, Undertaker vs Shawn on Wrestlemania 25 changed the business.

Daniel Bryan was an easier choice than Hart vs Michaels. From the current roster, he’s had one of the best independent wrestler careers, been the best people’s champion in WWE, and is currently the best heel. He’s even had the funniest gig when he and Kane were partners. Besides, he is probably a top three in ring competitor.

[Anders]

Braun should be a megastar if the McMahons weren't fucking idiots.

He’s been a very positive surprise. There is still a lot of untapped potential there.

I know this is not a wrestling forum, but Wrestlemania was on Sunday, and yet there's only two posts about the event.

I basically agree with you, but in Bret’s defense they did kill his brother.

I watched NXT, MLW, ROH/NJPW and Mania and Riddle-Dream was the best match of the weekend.
