Taker requested to face Bryan. That's it. It was never in the plans to actually have that match

The Cena/Wyatt finish was the worst part of Mania by far to me. But seeing as WWE was just rewarded by fans, critics, and media for patiently paying off a year's worth of storytelling last night by crowning Daniel Bryan, I'm hoping that WWE is thinking long-term with Cena and Wyatt too.
They established a really interesting vibe last night with Bray being The Joker to Cena's Batman. Sure, Cena won last night by staying true to his moral center despite temptation. But what if that temptation stays with Cena? What if Cena has to struggle over the coming months to keep his inner monster at bay? Bray Wyatt lost the match, but storyline wise he COULD, if WWE chooses to, come much closer to winning the overall feud. |

The RAW right after Mania is my favorite wrestling show of the year. Most of the big guys should be wrestling. All of them should appear in some fashion. But the big draw is that it's the craziest episode of the year. The crowd is always amazing, utter insanity can break out (like when Brock Lesnar came back two years ago), titles can change hands, big heel/face turns can happen. It's bound to be entertaining.

They wasted opportunities to put over Roman Reigns and Bray Wyatt in order to feed us WM appearances by Triple H's buddies (who I liked when they were in the attitude era but that ship sailed) and for Cena (who bores me). IMHO Reigns and Wyatt are the future of the WWE. Shield v. Wyatt Family have been the two best matches of the year.
Lesner will haunt Bryan for the next 6 months now. That will be hard to watch given the physical mismatch. They need to rethink the format of the Andre the Giant thing - it was a wreck until the last few remained and that ended quickly. And the Divas thing was formatted poorly too. That is all. Carry on. |

They can't really format the Andre thing any other way unless they want to call it Royal Rumble junior.

I was pretty shocked to hear Lesnar went over. Nothing else surprised me. Had zero interest in mania last night (2nd year in a row) but will watch at least some of raw tonight to see Bryan.

It's nice they got guys on the show that deserved it but it wasn't meaningful to anyone other than Cesaro. |

Seeing as I got the Network I watched it, it was worth the 10 bucks. It also came off without a hitch no freezing or glitching I was stunned.

Yeah I do agree with Cena not putting over Wyatt. Cena just seems dated now and old. I know we disagree about Brock Lesnar but I think they are really going to put him over and have him get the title soon. I would kill to see a Cesaro vs Lesnar match at mania for the title next year.
