ashamed wrestling fan 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 HAHAHAHAH The lights go out. A literal dark match With the way this event has gone, very fitting indeed Aside, of course, for the Flair-Michaels match that everyone expected to be good. That alone will save it from eclipsing Wrestlemania 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
converge241 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 But Austin was two things: 1. The top star in the company and 2. The guy people were rooting for going in and all match long. Orton...was treated as an afterthought in the buildup to the match and well...there's actually probably more people rooting for him than Cena. There were people still rooting for Rock not every city in the leadup to that was pro-Austin..obviously the Astrodome crowd was..you seriously cant think all the marks at home were ALL like "yes I love that my hero Austin is now with Vince" regardless of whether it worked or not they wrote it as an unhappy ending and yes a bunch of the crowd might want Orton over Cena lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

converge241 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 Worst. Entrance. Ever. HHH's enterance at Mania 22 Says "not so fast" Compared to "Gangsta' Cena"? I think not.. WAY worse than Gangsta Cena. Whatever they were going for with HHH's Thor enterance missed its mark completely. p.s. why did they do big crazy over the top Hollywood style entrances a year AFTER wrestlemania in Hollywood?

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2008 I love how they call Cena "controversial". There's nothing controversial about his character. Maybe if there was the crowd wouldn't turn on him every match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I disagree with Meltzer- it was much better than MITB 2, which I've never gotten into. I wanted Cena to win, but that was an awesome finish.
